towns and places from other games

So ESO is my first elder scrolls game I've ever played. so everything was new to me. but i know many towns and places have appeared on other games.
I recently started playing skyrim (yeah, veyr late, I know) and just now I heard that there are some towns in there that also appear in here.
So could anyone tell me all the towns/villages/cities that appear on skyrim that also appear on here? and then if you can, also important places that appear on both games? If someone wants and can do the same for other Elder scrolls games, like dagerfall which I assume appears in that game, I'd appreciate it too :)

    Skyrim - Riften, Windhelm, and (to an extent) Falkreath, which is a dungeon.

    Oblivion - Oh, just about everything, including a not-burned down Kvatch. PvE also has Anvil. PvP has the Imperial City and a fair few of the towns/cities like Bruma, Chenydinhal, etc.

    I didn't play Morrowind, Daggerfall, etc.

    The exploreable areas of the Province of Skyrim within ESO include the Holds Eastmarch and The Rift, and Bleakrock Isle off the coast, near Solstheim, the former two of which one can also visit in TES V (as well as Solstheim with the Dragonborn DLC, but the island is not present in ESO).

    In Eastmarch, places that appear in both games include the Hold capital Windhelm, Fort Amol, Kynesgrove, the Ancient Nord ruin Skuldafn, as well as various minor locales such as delves.

    In the Rift, in both games you can visit Riften, Shor's Stone and Ivarstead, and once again many delves and other points of interest appear in both games.

    Not everything is 100% the same, obviously, as Skyrim takes place about 900 years after the events of ESO, and that is a long time for things to change. One must also keep in mind the artistic differences of the games, which also causes differences between the games (for example, the bridge outside of Windhelm is vastly different in ESO when compared to its TES V counterpart, but it is still very much the same bridge, built by the founder of the city, Ysgramor. However, Skyrim's version of the bridge is the more "accurate" one).

    As for other games, many locales within Cyrodiil and the Gold Coast will be the same as found in TES IV Oblivion (Kvatch, Anvil, Bruma etc., as well as the Imperial City itself), and the same goes for Vvardenfell and TES III Morrowind (Vivec City, Balmora, Seyda Neen etc.). As for TES II Daggerfall, that game takes place in the Iliac Bay region of western Tamriel, which in ESO would encompass Glenumbra, Stormhaven, and parts of Bangkorai & Alik'r Desert. The most notable cities within these locales would be Daggerfall, Wayrest, Evermore (Can't be visited in Daggerfall, but can be visited in TES Arena) and Sentinel, respectively.

    ESO's Vvardenfell is quite different from the TES3 version, but the settlements you can found in both are (clockwise from South) Vivec city, Seyda Neen, Balmora, Ald Ruhn, Gnisis, Vos, Sadrith Mora, Molag Mar and Suran.

    Notably missing from ESO are Ebonheart (though it's mentioned in a letter, if I'm not mistaken), Pelagiad, Caldera and Dagon Fel (in fact the whole Sheogorad region is missing)

    Daggerfall in this game is absolutely different than original Daggerfall. Starting with the fact that original Daggerfall is probably bigger than all of Tamriel in ESO. There's just no point in trying to find resemblance. Look up some videos on classic game vs ESO comparisons.

    ESO did a good job of (pre) replicating Windhelm and Riften. There are some good side by side comparisons on YouTube.

    No Privateer's Hold or Gothway Garden... :( And yeah, the city itself is much different.

    But a lot of the places in Daggerfall can be found or are referenced in this game like Glenumbra Moors, Illessan Hills and Daenia

    Fort Amol, which in ESO is like a small village outside the Yarl's manor, is also a run down fort in TES: V, but not a town.

    That's the one thing I can remember off the top of my head I had noticed when I was playing Skyrim and looking at the map. But I know ZOS has taken a ton of places and put them in ESO.

    Mainland Ebonheart, sure, but I meant Ebonheart in Vvardenfell, a bit to the South West of Vivec City, if I remember correctly

    i was excited whan I saw riften. it was my favorite town from skyrim. <3 although that was in part because of the thieves guild quests and part of the dark brotherhood. I haven't yet done the quests in therein eso yet. so I'll have to see.

    Windheim is much nicer in ESO, it was way to dark and depressing in Skyrim.

    Incidentally, mods for Oblivion (TES IV) added areas of Valenwood and Anequina (Northern Elsweyr), that included many of the cities in ESO. Dune, Orcrest, Riverhold, Arenthia, Woodhearth, Elden Root, Haven and many more. Someone was working on Rimmen and Senchal, too. I added Falkreath to that game, as well.

    Skyrim had a few "over the border" mods as well.

    Because ESO is set a long time before the other games, some places, such as Pelagiad, and Castle Ebonheart, hadn't been built yet.

    Stros m'kai, the DC starter island, is the setting of TESA Redguard. The of course the obvious places like Vardenfell was the setting of TES:Morrowind and Eastmarch and the Rift are two major locations in TES:Skyrim

    This isn't true. There is another branch of the thieves guild located in Bankorai

    Oh, I was not aware of that. I've never finished the DC questline so I've never even heard of a Thieves Guild in Bangkorai. Still, my point of the Riften Thieves Guild not being established at this point in time yet (although we do not know that, as there are no records about the origin of Riften's Guild, - with some sources stating it might even be as old as the city of Riften itself - and it is unknown if the Guild has any connections to Oblivion's Thieves Guild, founded by the Grey Fox around 3E 133) still stands.

    I misspoke. It's the Riften Outlaws Refuge in-game. It's basically the TG Sanctuary from Skyrim with different entrances.

    Mainland Ebonheart, sure, but I meant Ebonheart in Vvardenfell, a bit to the South West of Vivec City, if I remember correctly

    Take a look in the archcannon's office for this gem of a letter:


    Lord Vivec said, "I am fascinated by this place. We must have one in Vvardenfell!"

    "We must, my lord?" I asked, trying to ascertain where the Living God was going with this line of reasoning.

    "I think that spot to the south of my city," Lord Vivec continued. "Yes, that will be the perfect place to build my new Ebonheart!"

    "Build, my lord?" I asked, still somewhat unsure what was being asked of me.

    "Build, move, whatever you think is best," Lord Vivec said. "Have the canons and Hlaalu's engineers begin drawing up plans immediately. I can't wait to begin a new project!"

    So, there you have it. From the lips of Our Lord to your ears, through the medium of this letter. I look forward to reviewing your ideas in, let us say, three month's time?

    Ah, of course, the Outlaws Refuge. I don't think I've ever been into the Riften now, now that I think about it. I'll have to check it out today.
