Hello everybody !
After I saw how unrealistic the map is ( I love it but.. )
I know what you can do if you want more realistic and RP wise gameplay using the map !

You'll need a copy of the physical map
When you switch to the map , immediately look at your physical map , why ?

It doesn't spoil places.
You actually need to think about your whereabouts instead of seeing the map floating above your head.
It's more RPG like.
You see roads , holds and borders.
It's HQ

I have the map sticked to the wall next to my PC.
Many won't like this idea , but for me it works amazingly well.

I got my physical map hanging above my tv, just like Oblivion's map was next to me on the wall and Morrowind's was above my tv when I played that. Although I don't use them to travel with, they're still fun to look at.

Can't you find/make a mod for this?

Why would you even pull up the map in the game?
No need to look away.

This was discussed by many members several weeks prior to release. I have a makeshift copy that I used to make notes on before I moved to PC. Now I use this. http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/10044

The version with no map markers.

Then I could write notes myself in a diary for every quest I take, without using the awful Skyrim journal. RP to the extreme!

Probably meant for the console players (such as myself) with no access to mods.
