2024 Skyrim Instant Classic Home: Dragon Watch Keep, for PC (AE/SE/LE)

[@SkyrimPlus]

Hope you all enjoyed the show! If you’d like me to read you the full home manual, so you can sit back and relax, here’s an optional unlisted video that you can listen to: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYOQoo2wj7ysmq8 If you want to see more of Lierin’s (and Kriemen’s)homes, here’s a playlist of their homes/villages that I’ve covered: kzbin.info/aero/PLdvzE2TS0UFLV-LIohtwt-F5RwkBWCSAy For fresco lovers like me, here’s another home mod that has quite a few of them: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYGckmeCgdpgnas And I meant to say cutting board display, not baking display. And on the alchemy lab in the basement, dragonflies, not butterflies. And the shelves in the library with the falmer and dwarven enemy figurines was actually a vertical chess board! Hindsight is 20/20. 😄

[@LierinEdana]

Thank you for an awesome showcase video! The only thing you sort of missed are those cubby shelves in the library; they are actually a vertical chess board. Great video!

[@SkyrimPlus]

@@LierinEdana Thanks! Lawren just told me about that. 😆 I see it now! Makes complete sense! Thanks for giving us another fantastic home! In my opinion, this one is your best yet!

[@LierinEdana]

@@SkyrimPlus Thank you!

This home is practically perfect! I love it so much! I can't wait to try it.

[@SkyrimPlus]

I remember walking through it for the first time thinking, "Wait until everyone sees this place!" 😄

[@smoothoperator7219]

Yeah, this is definitely a PC home. I wish it was for Xbox because this is truly amazing. The lighting inside is perfect. I would love to move my followers there. But, I can wait. Also, excellent video. The music choice compliments this longer video perfectly. You outdid yourself with this showcase sir.

[@SkyrimPlus]

Thank you! I love choosing the music. It's my favorite part of the process. I try to pick it to compliment the environment, and it makes it easy when you have such a beautiful home like this to showcase! But you're right. Perfect lighting. Tons of interesting clutter to see and lots of utility throughout the home. It's definitely an instant classic!

[@lawrenwimberly7311]

Wifey knocked it out of the park with this one

[@SkyrimPlus]

Yes, she did! Every time she releases a new home, I find myself thinking, "This is my favorite Lierin home yet!" I thought that way about Fy Nyth last year, and then she told me I should check out, "Our Cabin" that she made for you, and then I loved that one, too!

[@KriemenGaming]

100%

[@SkyrimPlus]

@@KriemenGaming I found a couple of your mods I haven't covered yet that I want to get to at the start of 2025! Thanks for porting this to SE/AE!

[@KriemenGaming]

@@SkyrimPlus 💖 I've been ill for several weeks and was unable to give the SE conversion the love and attention it deserves. I'll look into those couple of activators that are refusing to co-operate. The sauna I know of. Were there any others? Am still discovering clickies. update: The sauna is working in my SE version. The effects are subtle. Some steam coming off the hot stones and light steam in the room. So subtle that I can barely see it in LE.

[@SkyrimPlus]

@@KriemenGaming Sorry to hear you were ill! Hope you are feeling better! I couldn't see any from my game, but maybe I just expected more steam from past experiences, like the sauna at Morskom Estate. There was also supposed to be a heated tub in the garden, and that activator doesn't seem to do anything in my game. Those are the two I recall.

[@seekthtruth]

This is awesome, thanks so much.

[@SkyrimPlus]

@@seekthtruth Guess what I'm working on now!

[@gojiberry7201]

I want Lierin to come over and decorate my apartment.

[@SkyrimPlus]

Lierin, the Joanna Gaines of Skyrim modding.

[@RogueFire777]

I just watched this with you on TV, came here to say I am completely blown away. This is a perfect home and the lighting is absolutely beautiful ❤

[@SkyrimPlus]

Every space is interesting! Not many homes accomplish that feat.

[@d.mz7621]

Your voice is so soothing. I feel like a kind hearted hafling real estate agent is selling me a home.

[@SkyrimPlus]

Thanks! I will be interested to try real-estate after I retire from teaching. :) I am very interested in trying it one day! Hope you enjoyed it!

[@d.mz7621]

​@@SkyrimPlus you should. I felt a real lawful good halfling nature in your voice. I would trust your recommendations.

[@d.mz7621]

​@@SkyrimPlus By the way, English is not my first language, so apologies if there were any mistakes. I’m glad you enjoyed the message!

[@SkyrimPlus]

No worries! Your grammar is fantastic, for English not being your first language. I only know a little Spanish and nothing else besides my native language, so congratulations on being able to communicate effectively!

[@Cozonac3000]

As much as I like huge, ornamented castles full of guards, in some occasions I prefer the classic homes.

[@SkyrimPlus]

This would be a great home to use for that instance! Some homes feel too big and empty, but she didn't waste a square inch in this place.

[@animezinglife]

Such an incredible home! It's clear how much work went into this.

[@SkyrimPlus]

She worked on this home for well over a year!

[@wolfwilkopter2231]

Another Masterpiece by Lierin and ported by Kriemen, it has everything (again) one would ever need, bath and loo included!

[@SkyrimPlus]

The dynamic duo of Skyrim modding.

[@sandyshautru3638]

This is lovely and great showcase Lord Regal. Is that a mod that lets you plant those flowers you mentioned?

[@SkyrimPlus]

Good eye for detail! That's actually the name of a professional wrestler from back in the 80's and 90's. 😆 I wanted to see if anyone would notice. And yes, I have a TON of alchemy mods. I still need to make my showcase of those. I'll work on that when I get to winter break (I'm a public school teacher). But yes, the two specific (among many) used in this video were More Plantable Plants Creation Club and Beyond Skyrim- Bruma- Growable Plants Patch by Masked RPG Fan, who has a TON of useful mods. He's the swiss army knife of mod authors and offers a selection that you didn't know you needed until you start looking through his Nexus profile. Those have a couple of prerequisite mods, too, like form list manipulator, but it's worth it! Love to see alkanet, bergamot, etc. from Bruma!

[@sandyshautru3638]

@@SkyrimPlus Thank you, I will go snooping through profiles. Regal is one of my favorites.

[@drdkay9716]

You said all that needs to be said: "All that and a bag of chips.." Great review!

[@SkyrimPlus]

😆 That's what I thought about it! I love when homes offer several places to craft. If there's space, there is no sin in adding additional crafting, especially when it looks that good!

[@lawrenwimberly7311]

the cubbies with the figurines are a vertical chessboard

[@SkyrimPlus]

That makes complete sense, now that you say that. 😆

[@MotherOf-Ferrets]

Thanks for the tour!!!! This place is beautiful and badass all rolled into one. You can have kids and followers.....wow! There is only 1 area I wish this place had and then it would have everything I've been looking for. I am a collection nerd. Armor sets, daedric relics, elder scrolls, black books, the masks, the claws, the bugs in a jar, specialty weapons (Champion's Crudgel, Blade of Woe, Nettlebane, Zephyr...ect), armor/shield sets for different city guards, weapons from Jarls for becoming a thane to a city, enemy armor types and their shields....you name it, I collect it. Lierin's home is stunning! Do you happen to know if there is one like this but one that comes with a huge armory/trophy room area for collecting fanatics like myself to put their collection out on display in one large area? Seems like collector homes have no place for kids just followers.....collector's adopt the youth of Skyrim too 🤣

[@SkyrimPlus]

Sounds like you might enjoy Lonewolf's Manor. It has space for 12 followers and 6 kids, but it also has add-on mods that can raise it up to 100 followers! It has a secret special item room with the tunnel leading to it coming from the master bedroom, and it shares with Legacy of the Dragonborn, so if you have that mod installed, you don't have to choose whether or not the item is displayed in the museum or your home...It can be both! And it has all crafting, other than a spider imbuing chamber,as well as its own mine! And it's located on the Whiterun side of the bridge next to Riverwood, so it has an excellent location. I've featured that one on the channel, if you're curious! I'd also say Dragonia, but I know you've seen that video, already. Hjertesten Hall also fits that criteria pretty well. And I am working on a video on Cliffside Cottage, which has room for 6 kids, 3 followers, you and a spouse, a huge armory, special item storage, and all crafting stations (except spider imbuing, and it's majority no load door, so you can walk right in without a loading screen. Last suggestion would be a future video I plan on making soon called Harbourside Manor. It's like Cliffside Cottage but also has a greenhouse and closer to Solitude, especially close to the Sawmill. Hope these suggestions yield a winner for your home search!

[@MotherOf-Ferrets]

@SkyrimPlus Thanks so much for tossing all of those suggestions out there. When I can get back on, I'll definitely look into all of them!!!

[@roguephantom45]

This mod is stunning a pity it’s not on Xbox but truly is great.

[@SkyrimPlus]

That is too bad. I believe just one of hers is on Xbox, which is the Riverside Apartment, which is located in Riften near Elgrim's Elixirs. It's really neat, if you haven't seen it before!

[@roguephantom45]

⁠@@SkyrimPlusLooks like a good home and yes I haven’t found any more of there mods so I believe that’s the only one. Reminds me of the Ravens Breezehome it is a great cozy home mod.

[@SkyrimPlus]

@@roguephantom45 I generally use Eli's Breezehome and this other mod that adds a garden underneath the home that's pretty cool. I'll have to check out Raven's. Thanks for the tip!

MEGA! 👍

[@SkyrimPlus]

Awesome, right?!

[@entenigelpfau]

@@SkyrimPlus Yes, a Masterpiece!

[@TroySavary]

Nice home, but way too easy to acquire and too much free stuff for something you can easily get early game.

[@SkyrimPlus]

Maybe you discover Jyrof's body, but your travels don't take you that way, so you concentrate on other quests first and happen to recall the letter you found a long while ago at the bottom of your knapsack and choose to finally investigate it.

[@TroySavary]

@SkyrimPlus Yeah, you can always delay inhabiting the house.
