Hi everyone!
Hope the Summer is treating you well. Two quick topics!
DISCORD: I've heard some of you are having issues accessing the Discord. You can find it here: https://discord.gg/486nh4wFAB - If you don't get the right tier automatically, please send me a quick message.

Hello everyone! This is probably not the type of update you were expecting, but here we are!
I've had an update for Skyrim's Got Talent in the backburner for some time. I had the songs and most of the reactions, but I was just missing putting the work into it. I felt like I needed a break from the College of Winterhold mod, so here it comes.
Update includes new reactions, reactions from fellow bards, reactions for the middle awkward stage when no one reacted before, some "hello ba...

As mentioned previously, some of the quests are simpler than others. These 3 quests (Restoration, Destruction and Urag's Quest) are not as elaborate as the Alteration quest, but they should still do the job.
Keep in mind that the idea is not to create a huge epic new questline, but to involve the player more in the day-to-day life of an aspiring new student in the College and making sure magic is part of this. Overall, depending on the mods that you use (I'm thinking No Fast Trave...

Hello everyone! I hope you're doing well. I've prepared a public trailer for the College of Winterhold project that I intend to release later this week. Main reason to get it out there is that it will motivate me to keep working on it and it's always helpful to get more feedback and eyes on the current status of the mod.
I've added all of your nicknames as a Thank You at the end of the video. No last names (obviously) but if for whatever reason you don't want to show up, let me know. 2022-06-09 22:46:28 +0000 UTC View Post
Hello everyone! It's been some time now. I hope you're all doing well! I've been exclusively working on the College of Winterhold Quest Expansion for the last couple of weeks since I published Immersive Rejections and I've done lots of progress.
The structure of the mod is already there, so is the audio for 5/7 quests, and the implementation of the first quest is pretty much final. I think some things could still be added to it to make it more fleshed out (new dialogue idles, I wa...

Not sure if I'll manage to get the mod live this wednesday or later in the week, but the video showcase is now FINAL and you can watch it already if you want to :) It's quite long but also a lot of fun.
Next, I will now continue working on the college mod *for real*. As always, thanks everyone for your support.

Before you hit me with a stick, I've done a lot of steady progress in the College of Winterhold Quest Expansion. Out of the 7 new quests, 5 of them have their audio ready. It's quite exhausting to work on them though, as I'm super limited with the audio that's available and the direction I want to take...
This means, ultimately, that I get distracted by other smaller projects. So here we are!
As a way to improve on the "proposal" mechanics of Skyrim, I have 2 mini projects in the ...

Hey everyone!
I'll be honest, it took a little bit longer than anticipated and there are still some things that are not 100% perfect, but the "Take A Peek" mod is looking good, I'd say! I'm not sure if I'll get the mod uploaded this week or test it a bit more during this weekend and then post it next week, but I'm sending you guys the mod showcase so you can have a look at the mod some time in advance :)
Once I get this mod live, I'll resume working on the College of Winterh...

I had an idea yesterday while watching a video of someone playing Dishonored. What if... you could "peep" through keyholes before entering a room, making sure people are asleep/the house is empty before you actually go through the door, for example.
And ta-dah! This is a super early concept video for the mod, lots of things would need to be implemented and improved, but I thought the basics were easy to do for a quick video and fair enough, here it is. This should take 3 or 4 days of wo...
2022-04-20 10:23:08 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone!
By popular demand, "College of Winterhold - Quest Expansion" is the next mod I'm working on. Thank you for casting your votes, we'll do another poll (with new and old options) once this beast is out.
So far it seems this mod is probably going to be one of the most complex things I've done, and certainly my biggest "Quest Expansion" to date. So I guess I have to THANK YOU ALL for giving me this impossible task! Next time please ask for a upscaled texture or changin...
2022-04-17 10:06:58 +0000 UTC View PostSo, in case you missed it, I made a sort of sporadic mod today: NPCs Wear Amulets of Mara: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/66125. I might merge this with the "Family Life" mod idea later down the road, if it fits, but for now it's a sweet standalone mod.
Also, since it seems College of Winterhold Quest Expansion (or Guild Expansion or whatever I end up calling it) seems...
2022-04-07 10:40:54 +0000 UTC View PostPoll time! Vote for your favourite ideas, and I'll take a look at the most popular ones for the next couple of mods.
You can vote for as many ideas as you like, say 1, 5, 10... But I suggest picking your 3-5 favourites. Even if an idea is not selected into the top 5, it will most likely still be there as an option for future months so don't feel bad.
If you want to read more about what each mod would be like, I wrote a pretty big summary of all the ideas over here: 2022-04-04 21:30:14 +0000 UTC View Post
In a couple of days I will post a poll where you can vote which mods interest you out of all the ideas I'm posting below. This post offers a deeper look at what each mod entails. This is all a draft brainstorm of ideas, so final form of the mods might change, some things might not be possible or be too much work, etc.
I'm also stating the difficulty of making such mods. This is to give you an overview of how much time making X mod would take. Easy should be a matter of...

Showcase is done! Hope you enjoy watching it :)
The mod is also almost ready now, I still have a week to smash bugs and write the description page, but the mod should be live April 1st as planned.
Thanks for your support everyone!

So today I realized April 1st is around the corner, so I decided to work on a mini project I can release on that day. Using splicing, I plan to add a whole lot more outcomes to this misc quest, including the option of siding with Haelga and having some, ehem, fun times with her. I always found it weird the only way to complete this mini quest is by shaming Haelga for her... busy schedule, so now there will be new, ehem, interesting ways to complete the quest. This will of course be done tactf...
2022-03-16 22:06:36 +0000 UTC View PostThat's a good question indeed! I'm taking a small break from creating mods at the moment, but I will come up with a poll where YOU can decide what mod idea I should focus on next. Stay tuned for more!
In the meantime: thank you so much for your support. I hope my mods bring you infinite joy.
