This is very nice, and it looks lore sensible; very pretty but not 100% out of place. Yea we get Skyrim is NordNordNord but, I can imagine a Breton or Imperial comissioning the wood to be cut like so.
Agreed. It would definitely fit High Rock or the Cheydinhal part of Cyrodiil. Maybe it’s because it reminds me of Rothenburg ob de Tauber and I headcanon the Colovia part of Cyrodiil to be a lot like Bavaria (Germany), Austria, Trentino Alto-Adige (in Italy) or even the Czech Republic, maybe even Hungary or Poland. Maybe it’s because of a Reddit post I found years ago that talked about Colovia having the Tamerilic equivalent of Oktoberfest.
In most places there are multiple styles of architecture. One of the things that is super un-immersive for me in Elder scrolls games, although my favorite games, is the monotonous architecture everywhere. It's certainly a lot easier to build that way in games of course, but it's always bugged me. People from other places bring their own talents and aesthetic with them, and so it's a very rare (and imo, stagnant aesthetic) where buildings are cookie-cutter samey.
What a pretty home! It’s neat that it’s in a location not typically used for player homes. The custom features are beautifully done. The furnishings and decorations are quite unique. Thank you for showing us this lovely home.
I thought you were doing a House Flipper showcase 😝 it's a lovely home. Makes me think of an old farmhouse. I've had a home with a more modern look, can't remember what it was called. Had it for ages and loved it.
Wow, I just saw this video from 9 years ago on my Apple TV! This mod is quite advanturous I must say. Never been to England (I live in Quebec) but from the outside, it looks like houses in the English countryside we see on TV. Contemporary yet still retains some of the Skyrim flavour, say, like a house builder who came from another region of Tamriel and brought some of the local architecture to Skyrim! The furniture is a tad over the top but the build is bold, fresh... I like it! Thanks for another fine video Febrith, even if I came to it a little late!
It's a really nice house. It's in a really nice area too. Architecture reminds me of a blend of Spanish and Italian, especially with the curved-tile roof. Only thing I don't care for is the plush chairs and sofa, but that is easily overlooked as I'm never sitting in my house (always things to do, you know).
In case it matters to you (if it doesn't that's fine too), couches have been around for at least 4,000 years irl. So they're not out of place in Skyrim, though the styles are often out of place if you're going by irl furnishing styles. This house lacking eaves is the most glaringly out of place part of the mod as far as realism. Eaves are what keeps the rain from undermining the building foundation, and that's definitely a thing to be avoided irl. lols
It would be perfect if it had eaves. I don't mind the sign, unless it stayed there. lols Immersion is such a personal thing. Too bad a lot of people don't know what the word means. Realism and immersion are not the same thing, even though they often intertwine, depending on the potential immersee.
This is quite lovely. It seems very much inspired by Oblivion. I love the wall textures and the fact that the MA went for something other than just Solitude interiors.
Beautiful home, love the layout of the yard!! For you it’s the soils, for me I love beautiful and functional yards!! Thank you for the great video and have a wonderful day!!
This is, obviously, a Daedric transported show home from an alternative future in another universe, showing what a Skyrim united in peace and prosperity under the Dragon Born could be like. Peace through the desire for nice things for all. At the moment it screams peace, and prosperity, and rob me blind, but, hopefully, there's some magic at work to keep the miscreants at bay. I for one would solve the "not lore friendly" debate and my concerns about security of valuable knickknacks by taking advantage of the Daedric Dodge. Put it into an alternative Daedric world space to both justify its great looking existence and to limit the number of uninvited tourists.
A little bit of British culture, a little bit of French culture. Sounds like Breton knights culture to me. 🫡🫡🫡🫡 And make the bathroom and the lu functional.
Feb, have you seen the mod for Legacy of the Dragonborn called ‘Museum Renovations’? It slightly overhauls the interiors so it has brighter walls & flooring. I just found it & really like it. I highly recommend you check it out!
Oh wow! It's such a nice place! I agree with you though, some clickies in the bathroom and some soils would not hurt. Otherwise it's close to perfection in my tastes :O
Most of us are concerned with stability in player homes. Someone please just make an ultimate add on for artifact, trophy, unique items, buildable hearthfire room in the already buildable houses.
Nice home, but I agree with you, Ms. Feb.. that front door is rather thin, as are the hallways and staircase! I would need to go on a diet if I wanted to ever make it to bed😋
Eve was Pinocchio to begin with and that's where the serpent story comes in. Bringing a patriarchal God into a perfect garden was a bad idea to begin with but Eve wanted a Daddy. It's Tarzan all over again, but that was Greystoke not Greystone, do I have that right Febrith Darkstar?
*Saw this mod coming out in Nexus today and I must say I wasn't happy looking at its file size. Don't take me wrong, the home is definitely beautiful on the outside and the interior just normal. But I see no reason downloading a small player home that takes 350+ mb file size when anyone could just get giant castle home mods instead that have every facilities & even more but take less than 100 mb space. What caused this mod to become big is due to the fact the author bothered to use a very high texture (4k/8k) to create this which doesn't make sense, honestly. It's the same case as that "Lakeview Manor As It Should Be" which is also a big file sized mod (300+) solely due to the fact that one was a also created using high texture despite not having many interior/exterior facilities. What these high texture player home mods do is that they reduce your FPS as soon you enter the house or take a walk around the courtyard which is a red flag for low and mid end desktops. At least 80% of Skyrim fans would agree they don't care much about high texture, because it's the benefits and convenience in a mod which matter most at the end of a day. One example is that if you're looking for a player home that can accommodate several of your followers or more than 2 children, then this player home is definitely not for you*
tried the mod and disappointed too.. i could not believe how the mod author lied abt this having "all amenities" when it does not.. it doesnt even have a stable, pen or a garden to begin with
I'm one of those lore friendly Skyrim players that doesn't want anything modern in the my load order. The most "modern" I go is hairstyles. My Dragonborn isn't going to walk around looking like a tool. She needs her hair to look fabulous.
"Progression" - ..is not forbidden in Tamriel😉 *"LoreFriendlyness - Limits", so to say, stops at that point, when "LoreFriendly" means you have to live like a dumb monkey, who has no interest in understanding the surroundings, the environment, he or she lives in. No, not my mind-set. *I'm a "Sci-Fi - Fanboy!" 🤣
I agree. And immersion does not always mean realism or lore friendly. Immersion is solely about being immersed in something, and what is immersive for one person is never the exact same as for another person, and often immersion is wildly different for different people.
I dunno.. Apart from the sofa n armchairs and the shower I could see this been a high class breton or imperials house 😊 bretons have always struck me as old english/French centric in fashion
This is very nice, and it looks lore sensible; very pretty but not 100% out of place. Yea we get Skyrim is NordNordNord but, I can imagine a Breton or Imperial comissioning the wood to be cut like so.
Sure why not!:)

That's why I liked Oblivion more than Skyrim (as good as they both are). The cities and areas felt more unique.
What a pretty home! It’s neat that it’s in a location not typically used for player homes. The custom features are beautifully done. The furnishings and decorations are quite unique. Thank you for showing us this lovely home.
I totally agree!
Yea, this area would likely have an Inn nearby as well, for all of the weary travelers who come through.
Makes me think of buildings youd see either in cyrodil or highrock. Kinda medieval style. Picture a knight or paladin character living here.
Definitely!:)
Definitely High Rock although I could see Colovia working. It definitely reminds me of Rothenburg ob de Tauber.
That is so hilariously not Skyrim. Love it. The sofa really sells it, along with the press up rack.
Right?:) I'd move in in a heart beat!;)

You're most welcome:)

This ^^
Very modern. Love the outside look. Big enough for a lot of things!!
Glad you like it!
This is quite lovely. It seems very much inspired by Oblivion. I love the wall textures and the fact that the MA went for something other than just Solitude interiors.
Absolutely:)

Heh that might work! :D
This reminds me a lot of the Anvil buildings but into a Villa, what a dream.
Absolutely:)
I absolutely love your page! These videos are some of my favorites :)
Thank you so much!
I...... knew you'd be doing a video on this, soon as I saw the mod, lols, I find it sticks out like a sore toe, with the whole game, o.O
Lmao! :XD
It makes me think of a combo of Fallout and Skyrim. :D Perfect for when you aren't sure which game you want to play tonight!
Right!:D
Finally! A villa I can get behind. Love it!
Right!:)
Lovely! I can see Bilbo and Gandalf talking by the fire about a growing shadow.... lol
Lol ! :)
It looks like a part hacienda, surely inspired of spanish,french and italian old style housebuilding. Nice placed home 🙂
It is!
A little bit of British culture, a little bit of French culture. Sounds like Breton knights culture to me. 🫡🫡🫡🫡
And make the bathroom and the lu functional.
That would be good!;)

Lol someone DARED to mod LotD? Intriguing! I shall for sure check that out;)
Oh wow! It's such a nice place! I agree with you though, some clickies in the bathroom and some soils would not hurt. Otherwise it's close to perfection in my tastes :O

Lmao! :D Honestly didn't even notice it once I got inside:)
Great Video !
Thanks for the visit!:)
Not for me but glad you review all sorts.
Lol I truly do :))
Eve was Pinocchio to begin with and that's where the serpent story comes in. Bringing a patriarchal God into a perfect garden was a bad idea to begin with but Eve wanted a Daddy. It's Tarzan all over again, but that was Greystoke not Greystone, do I have that right Febrith Darkstar?
I wouldn't know! :D
Hello Feb. Back after ages. How are you?
Good, thank you - welcome back!:)

It's skyrim if we could live there 😂😂😂 old but modern
Nice, although I do not know what "lore friendly" means.
👍
I'm one of those lore friendly Skyrim players that doesn't want anything modern in the my load order. The most "modern" I go is hairstyles. My Dragonborn isn't going to walk around looking like a tool. She needs her hair to look fabulous.
Well of course dahling!
Is this a pc only mod
I don't know Steve, I'm a PC channel so maybe check Beth just in case it's available there or ask the mod author on his page?
@@FebrithDarkstar ok thank you, I love watching your mod videos
@@VikingWolf91 Thank you!:)
Your welcome could recommend any mods for a better stealth archer play through
Very pretty. But stands out a bit to much lol
:XD
First! 🙂
Yes you are!
"Progression" - ..is not forbidden in Tamriel😉
*"LoreFriendlyness - Limits", so to say, stops at that point, when "LoreFriendly" means you have to live like a dumb monkey, who has no interest in understanding the surroundings, the environment, he or she lives in.
No, not my mind-set.

:D
I agree. And immersion does not always mean realism or lore friendly. Immersion is solely about being immersed in something, and what is immersive for one person is never the exact same as for another person, and often immersion is wildly different for different people.
This looks far too modern
I wouldn't say too modern, but definitely looks like a home from 200 years back and not from around the time Skyrim is set in
:XD
I dunno.. Apart from the sofa n armchairs and the shower I could see this been a high class breton or imperials house 😊 bretons have always struck me as old english/French centric in fashion
