Oh my God I love big Castle homes! Makes me feel like I'm somewhere in Game of Thrones. Thank you so much Feb! I had to blink twice when I saw your post because I just couldn't believe my eyes! I'm so excited! I wake up everyday ready for your reviews and this one looks incredible! Thank you for all your work and commitment! Hope you have a lovely week.

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Awww /hug - thanks so much:)

[@itsclemtime2357]

My god that is impressive. Those views over the city are so breathtaking.

[@acecerberus8230]

From watching your showcases, it's very interesting seeing the improvements LC has incorporated over time. LC definitely learned much making this mod, a foundation for those to come. And, this one needs an update. Fabulous showcase, thanks.

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Totally agree!

[@isilme2646]

Oh my Lord! Your reaction to that big room in the secret entrance (18:00)... I cracked up laughing - tears and everything! But I am very glad there were no spiders. Insects Begone must always be in my load order; no frostbites allowed. I really love that you have made videos showcasing some of the older mods as well as current. After chastising myself for not finding them sooner, I've discovered numerous nice ones that are a little aged, like this one, but still a quality work. Thank you for doing this in the way that you do, Feb. Keep up the great work!

[@BionicleJackson]

Locaster has come a long ways in 8 years. This place could do with an update but honestly, being where it isn't in an ideal place to begin with, I can understand if it never happened. Just include this armor in a pack with his others and I'm content with my lowly self made Noble House. Thank you for a wonderful review.

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Lol yw:) Yes I prefer the Noble House for sure but I do love that armour!

[@Natsumi4709]

There is a very nice mod that adds snow elf as a playable race. It feels flawlessly integrated.

[@phatbassanchor]

I certainly enjoyed the tour dear Feb

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@lordplastic]

Love this so much ! And I laughed way harder than I should have at "the lightings a bit dicky" 😂

[@FebrithDarkstar]

"Dicky" = "dodgy" - probably a bit old-fashioned these days but it's ingrained lol. (Parents have a lot to answer for!)

[@matthewnaylor4412]

Awesome, love these vids am not a gamer anymore so seeing elder scrolls brings back good memories, I rushed out at 3 in the morning to be one of the first to buy skyrim at my local tesco and did the same with morrowind and oblivion when they came out. Gaming is not what it used to be these days.

[@phatbassanchor]

Sitting on Riverside Lodge (the Lupus78 version) and Peregrine Highwatch both! Have to pass on installing this but still excited to see it! Thank you sweet Feb

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Yeh it's an issue for sure - Skyrim seems small sometimes!

[@Thesparalius]

In regards to 7:40, there's a nifty little mod called "Tidy Up" which gives you a spell to make objects go back to their original positions. Really useful for situations like this where your books have fallen off your bookshelf or your food has fallen off your table etc.

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Oh thanks Daniel, I've not heard of that - so useful!:)

[@CaptPanda]

Hey thanks for this! I really appreciate it!

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Happy to help!

[@ajphil66]

I was sad there was Jarl of Ivarstead mod for sse. But hey this made it up for me lol. Bw thanks for the review again! You surely brought it to my notice 😇. you know what I will download this mod just for the decor shop ahahaha.

[@JEFFERSCRAFT]

Great mod. I'm definitely checking this one out. Thanks for showing it. 😁

[@FebrithDarkstar]

No problem 👍

[@ERS112758]

I really like this mod, it has everything . I have been playing with it for a few weeks now and every time I think I have seen and figured out everything, I find something new that I didn't see before. The hard part of this mod is deciding if I really want to keep it. I already have 2 super large castles, I really don't need another one. LOL

[@FebrithDarkstar]

I know what you mean - I must admit I prefer his others, but this one has its own charm.

[@KalashVodka175]

Well, it can always be your tertiary summer house.. uh, fortress.. uh I mean city The dragonborn owns real estate in all of skyrim

[@luanllluan]

What a surprise midway through!

[@GaminGawdess]

My goodness that Home has plenty of space for some wild parties. The temple my goodness I could feel all of my naughtiness just being severely frown down upon with those two big statues glaring at me. Of course it won’t stop me “naughty for life”!😉

[@FebrithDarkstar]

LOL totally about those statues - they'd intimidate anyone I should think:)

[@wolfwilkopter2231]

Ah yeah, the grandfather of our beloved LC Mods ported over from LE. unfortunately not completely finished and still also seem to have its old bugs. nonetheless a very impressive mod, especially for the time it came to be and the foundation of the Feudal Keep, Build your noble House and espacially Citadel(the similaritys are not to be overlooked here), we all know and love today. :) The Title is a bit misleading, should've be named Jarl or Thane or Lord Commander, as there is only one King in Skyrim, but anyways still good to see that Evergreen. :) But one should be aware that its massive and nothing else fits to that place, no Peregrine Highwatch, No Lodge, nothing that isnt very close to Riverwood, as this one is massive. And Feb: you call a SSE with barely 200mods 'bloated' what are my about 600 then?^^ Also .esm files will always be at the top of the load order as they are MASTER files, like the ones that come with the game that also more or less cant and dont really need to be sorted, but the .esp that loads the thing needs to be placed low.

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Gotcha - and I'm so glad I didn't load this into SSE then - I've got some massive mods going on right now with Bruma, Falskaar, Forgotten City and a ton of overhauls and I felt it wouldn't fare well:)

[@leonard9624]

would you recommend cital and feudal keep?

[@BionicleJackson]

@@leonard9624 citadel is like this mod but more of it, a more sensible location and more flushed out. The keep is more like fine living with a small township to support it, a staple in my game.

[@leonard9624]

@@BionicleJackson which one is the most stable and best? If you would rank the 3? The keep, noble house and citadel

[@BionicleJackson]

@@leonard9624 I have never personally played this one or the citadel. Feb has videos on them all though, check them out. I don't think you can make a bad choice.

[@kazmakazii]

When doing panning shots, it would be best to turn off crosshair and put HUD opacity to the lowest. After, redo them to their original state.

[@Sonjayu]

I like these castles with a "true medieval" look, although I am not too big on castles to be fair. I quite like the town, though. I think I'd install it just to have the town to run around in.

[@FebrithDarkstar]

I totally agree!

[@jaderiver2905]

Ohhh Gawd another sptwwwling castle that never made travelators for its people xD Thanks !! ;p

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Lol :)

[@CREATURES59]

Nice Kaer Morhen People think being Little Finger , Varys and others into Game of Thrones by saying so often MY KING ...

[@ajphil66]

(sorry for two comments but hey it's fabulous!)He should have put it as your highness to play it safe lol. So king or queen wouldn't matter ahahaha. The castle reminds me of dragon age inquisition game.bw this seems like a real castle! To think this was his first mod! Can't wait for more. In old times (take Troy for example) they had underground passages lol.

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Oh he'd done so many more since then - and even better IMHO - check out LC's Build Your Own Noble House - s'amazin'!

[@leonard9624]

subscribe, ive been ghosting your vids for awhile now. nice mods!

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Hi Leonard, thanks:)

[@drakxuswolfblood]

I am king of riverhelm and high king of skyrim good video is always girl keep it up I enjoy your videos and out of all the Palaces I've downloaded I have to say the the green and white Palace with a marble I can't pronounce it but I like that one and I like this Castle I also like the Daedric Castle also have a vampiric looking Castle called Vladimir's Castle like that I got a bunch of castles I mean I just like having different houses thank you for your video awesome job

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Thank you! 😁

[@mikedc101]

Great Video, thanks.

[@highfive7689]

Oh, Feb... you're very much the model of a modern Major- "Sovereign", .. in this mod that has everything from . . vegetable, animal, and mineral... all it needs is tome of kings of "Skyrim", and (from where) I quote the fights historical, From Marathon to Waterloo, in order categorical. This home covers all the angles ... in equations, both the simple and quadratical, In fact it even has what I was looking for - an inn to have in abstantia. All punning aside, I love the semi-christmas element that runs thru it, but I wish that he had done the same on the outer parts of the mod, specifically the village. And this is "old"? Feb, the use of plants in parts of the castle looks better than some of the newer mods. I do hope he does do some tweaking in SSE. I'm going to see about adding this mod - it looks well worth it. Thx, Feb : )

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Yw:)

[@newvelaric]

Man... Watching your video makes me want to reinstall Skyrim. But I know that if I do, I will install a crazy amount of mods! And I doubt my laptop will be handle all the mods!

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Hehe:) Well you don't have to go as overboard as I do:)

[@newvelaric]

@@FebrithDarkstar Ha ha Ha! I know but I am a mod hog! I see a good mod and I would install it. Two years ago, I installed so much mods that my game would go down to about 12-14 FPS! lol

[@DiamondRepublic-c9y]

when i installed it the only armor that appeared was the solders armor

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Hmmm, Locaster has a bunch of stand alone armour mods - maybe one of those would suit you - www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/users/2775819?tab=user+files

[@luxuryva]

just the mod am looking for doesnt say anything about the Hearthfire multiple adoptions mod tho :(

[@FebrithDarkstar]

:(

[@iMyThlc]

Only problem is I'm already the high king of skyrim so not sure how this mod would work with my status.

[@CREATURES59]

What was your speech level when you were in the shop of decorations ? This domain will empty your wallet ( pay for your employees )

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Oh no idea at this distance in time!

[@RobertVlcek]

Das gibt Krach mit Weisslauf.... (Brace yourself for some quarrel with Whiterun) I actually don't even call it Weisslauf anymore due to mod showcases and the fact that I play it in the English language version for actually just one reason: Aela the Huntress is voiced by Claudia "Ivanova" Christian who played one of my favorite characters in Babylon 5 and has just such a beautiful voice. (The German PS3 version was only available in German, obviously, and French which I never understood. Why French?). But anyway, this close to Whiterun, calls for... "problems'! Oh, look, the chicken said to itself: "Screw it, I'll end it my way" and hopped into the cauldron. So, people pay to become knights these days 🤔 - well but at least you know what to do with all the cash you have at a certain point, especially when you play with mods. That's why I like having a little starter home at the, well, start for free and in my book would even prefer to buy other home-mods because if you are playing with mods, you get the stuff you want "for free", except for resources, and don't mind buying a great sword from the next smith - most use the perk to level up anyway. Wow, this throne room. Not that I need it but the color composure, the warm orange and the blue dominating that place - someone is either no stranger to color theory or just has the "right" eyes. And just when I thought that I really like the crests and banners, they definitely work also very well in this place. And the vanilla decorative shields, most prominent on Jorrvaskr - I always wonder what it would look like in my game because of the texture mod I use all these shields are more colorful, not over the top colorized but much more attractive than this dull grey and brown. 🤔 And the bloody armory. For me these are just a lot of space and I just thought that I could use it for all my Lego sets (and those to come). You know, when you entered the master bedroom, it would have been nice to see if the light changes with the daytime - for some homes it would definitely be interesting to see (Winter Cove does for example and that adds to the homes overall atmosphere). - Nice cave btw. That roundtable reminded me of this super small roundtable in the BBC series Merlin 🤣🤣🤣 my, that was ridiculous. Especially for your longer videos, I should do commentary voice overs, to comment in real time everything I see. Someone told me that I sound like a professor anyway 🤣🤣🤣

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Lol yeh that would be a fun idea:)

[@christophermills7693]

it should have been titled Become Jarl of Riverhelm. Mod is not complete in SE. Mod is not compatible with Nevah's keep and peregrine Highwatch. pros arena big Decent fight lizardmen

having an issue whenever i try to buy king that npc says i dont have enough gold but i have enough gold

[@FebrithDarkstar]

It's been a while since I had this but I think you have to go up through the ranks IIRC. Like go up through all the different titles until you get to king? Try the comments section if the mod description isn't clear enough - it's the first place I head for!

@@FebrithDarkstar looks like mods are not worked that much and also have ctd crashing and also mod author has not updated maybe that's why these mods and similar mods has so many ctd in game

[@iMyThlc]

I have a question. Is it safe for me to remove 2 homes for this without corrupting my save file? It appears this kingdom is in the middle of my 2 homes Paradigm highland and one other house mod. I love those 2 houses but this would be interesting indeed.

[@FebrithDarkstar]

Here's a link to a discussion about these things: www.reddit.com/r/skyrimmods/comments/88k9ig/can_i_completely_remove_a_mod_after_installing/

[@iMyThlc]

@@FebrithDarkstar Alright thank you, I just installed become jarl of ivarstead and finished completing it this morning so now I have my sights on this mod. Just need to be sure that I can either disable or remove these 2 mods in order to install riverhelm. I really want to experience this. Also I plan on installing Helgen reborn and experience that mod.

[@iMyThlc]

Looks like a fun mod but I can't find a solution to fix the shield graphical mesh bug. It goes black and rainbow and causes a bunch of lines flickering all over my screen. Unfortunately though this would have been a fun mod to play with.

[@gellsfrost]

Excellent mod showcase as usual but I wouldn't use this mod, it's just too big and too rough for my tastes, except for the "secret armory" (sorry we've been spoiled too much by all the other beautiful house mods, lol) Also this mod shouldn't have been called Become King of Riverhelm but Become Jarl of Riverhelm, there is only one King, the High King of Skyrim, that was King Torygg and he's dead but anyway, you can't be king of a hold or region you're king of a country and you're not ruling Skyrim, you're just ruling Riverhelm so yeah, big mistake here, imho.

[@FebrithDarkstar]

I know exactly what you mean about being spoilt lol and yes a lot of people are with you on the "King" thing heh:)

[@jetri_co]

wait, you're not using LOOT? what mod manager are you using?
