I should note, though, that I got the best consistent response by giving them 100 gold. I like the details Bethesda added to the kids, though, like the effect where the child seems grateful that you adopted him or her, and when you have two kids, they actually get into fights (like real kids).

I got around this by tracking down the owner of the mill in Riverwood (Hod) in his home.Īs for adopting kids, they really tug at your heartstrings with their sad backstories. And while I have heard some grumblings about glitches (apparently the seller of one of the properties is a mark in a Dark Brotherhood, which can cause problems, depending on the timing that each task undertaken), I have only seen one: all the mill owners (the people you buy lumber to be build your houses from) disappeared on me after I finished the first house. There are times during construction, however, when it feels like a never-ending fetch quest, since you don’t exactly know how much iron, clay or other materials you’ll need in advance (after my first two houses, I now hoard building materials in preparation for my third house).

To add to the “big shot” feeling, you can even get your own bard and carriage driver. Regarding custom houses, I think being able to build pseudo-custom houses on your own plots of land is fun! I like that the properties you can buy can exist in holds that you couldn’t previously live in, so now the player can feel like a big shot by having property all across Skyrim. The main features of Hearthfire include custom houses and the ability to adopt children. Hearthfire really is more of an expansion than a game add-on, so this review is a tad shorter than the Dawnguard one.
