Why do Skyrim's forests feel so real?

We've all played Skyrim before and thought "Woah these forests feel so real!"...Or is that just me? Anyways you don't have to worry about it I basically covered it in this video. I dive unnecessarily deep into how and why Skyrims forests feel real and aren't necessarily realistic. This was a fun one to make and I actually learnt quite a bit about forests that I am great full I can now apply in my day job as a guide.
