Hearthfire so unoriginal

[scottym23]

@OP I find Hearthfire to be quite fun, actually. The dlc is a complete mess in the CK, but it is a nice money sink, and gives all the gajillion NPC followers I have recruited in my adventures something to do. Was pretty cool watching them defend my home from a dragon.

 

Yeah I've been watching some more videos on it and like that defending your territory aspect of the DLC, along with the garden. I'll probably end up getting it just for those reasons alone haha. Do you share my opinion on the house layout being a bit dry and unappealing, especially the lack of options for a "create your own x" DLC? Thanks for your comment btw :)

Actually, I thought the houses were a bit over-done. You could only make actual houses, and not, say, a shack. The dryness aspect can be fixed just by placing guff from your adventures (CABBAGES!) around the house.

 

Though, the houses seem to be missing quite a few lights. Tried adding 'em in myself, but as I said, the DLC is a complete mess when loaded in the CK. Not much you can do to mod it effectively.

That's a shame to hear that it's a hassle to load in the CK, since that was one of the main reasons I was going to get the DLC in the first place :/. Oh well, hopefully some extremely talented modders can overcome those obstacles and get us a proper house creation mod worth buying ;).
