Dark Jeto wrote: Lore oversight. It happens alot when one company takes over the development of a game where another company's lore is involved. According to Zenimax, they purposefully made Cyrodiil not a jungle because Cyrodiil having jungles was aparently derived from a "transcription error" (despite it already being established in TES lore that Cyrodiil had jungles anyways -_-). Basically Zenimax's reason for breaking the lore was either, "we don't think established lore is correct", or the much more likely, "we f*cked up and now we're trying to cover for our mistakes".

For this reason I say "CHIM works in mysterious ways", as its now become a sort of headcanon in the lore community that Talos-CHIM just erased the jungles from all existence.
