The name of the world in the books A Song of Ice and Fire which inspired the show game of thrones. When I play the game the winter theme and the fact that dragons are returning and there is civil war in the land and the way life seems harsh and violent. It gives me that vibe

agreed. But it also feels like real life Norway in the dark ages, the lord of the rings, Scotland in the dark/ medieval age.. a lot of inspiration from all over the place. But most of all from the TES lore/ books itself.. Its always described skyrim the way it feels in the game
