The modders behind Skywind, a complete rebuild of The Elder Scrolls: Morrowind in the more modern Skyrim engine, have released a new trailer showing off the Bitter Coast, or, as they call it, Slough.

Why have they named the area after a British town where hope goes to die? Well you’ll need to watch the video to find out.

Now, according to the comments under the video, the developer wasn’t meaning Slough as in the town but instead the word’s other definition “an area of soft, muddy ground; swamp or swamplike region.”

However, now the comparison’s been made, I can’t help but see the similarities. Can you spot the difference?
