I'm waiting for skyrim and oblivion to be remade in OpenMW
There are mods that add Skyrim and Cyrodiil.
I think Project Tamriel Rebuilt and Project Tamriel are the ones.
I've not played them, watched a stream play one of them. The tippy part is they go off the OG lore so Cyrodiil is a more tropical/Mediterranean climate which is fun.
I've used Tamriel Rebuilt a while back and it was pretty fucking cool. There was only one small patch of the map that wasn't completed when I played it, and none of it was populated. But they had the landmasses and cities all built and decorated. If they haven't gotten NPCs populating places by now, I have no idea what they've been doing this whole time (it's been several years now since I checked it out).
The fully lit portions of this map have been fully NPCd and quested. You might have enabled the preview landmass, which includes (or included, not sure if they still distribute it) a bunch of mostly mapped exteriors with partial interiors and typically no NPCs.
Fucking Thalmor denying the power of Talos of Atmora.
Seriously though, the canon explanation for Cyrodiil being the way it is now as opposed to original lore is that when Talos achieved CHIM he changed it, because that's a thing you can do with the secret syllable of royalty. All part of the path to mantling Shor/Lorkhan via one of the Walking Ways and forging an empire.
I've joked in other places in the past that CHIM stands for "Character Has Installed Mods" because what it allows is roughly on par with the character opening the modding tools and changing what they want to change.
