As in the removal of the mountains near the town of Anvil? As i was perusing the recent imgs of Anvil and Kvatch i came across on reddit, i noticed the two pictures comparing Anvils Southeast entrance of Oblivion and ESO. I was very impressed at how well Zenimax managed to recreate this area based on the older game. The only thing that immediately caught my attention and kinda bugged me, was the inconsistency of the terrain in Cyrodiil.
I've already heard all the excuses surrounding the fact that this game takes place 800-1000 years prior to the single player games and that's the reason, but it no longer holds any value. Just looking at the photos of these buildings still standing, is proof that a city would more likely disappear before an entire mountain.
Is there any other reason for this, from a developmental stand point?

KhajiitiLizard✭✭✭✭✭These two images are at different angles and the wall in the ESO version is taller... but maybe a bit of the mountains would peak through the ESO one... just not as much as the Oblivion version... the wall in that one is shorter.

There is obviously the camera angle adding to this and lets not forget 2 games separated by 10 years, different development teams, using different engines, /w a slightly different art style. With all that said, i personally see alot of similarities.0 -

I created a thread awhile back about something similar to this. Of course i never heard anything official. I was hoping this time around, i could find an answer as to why they continue to do this.
