Malacath Shack is a solid first mod, but it leaves one with a feeling of being incomplete. The contents of the shack are two daedra hearts, a map of Vvardenfell, a document detailing the Great Houses of Morrowind, two brass candlesticks and a daedric club carrying a frost enchantment. It has a bed and a dresser for those in need of it, and a statue of the Orc-favoring Daedric Prince sunk in the mud nearly to his knees. There is an urn below him for offerings (labeled 'offerings urn') but nothing happens when anything is placed within it and the statue itself does nothing when activated. The shack's location so close to Seyda Neen is incongruous and raises a few questions. The club itself is an okay starter-weapon compared to the iron and steel fare to be acquired locally, but as it is worth 10k gold it's a little gamebreaking being so close by-it's not even hidden in the shack, it's right there on the dresser.
I think the seeds of a good concept are here, but there is no execution of ideas; the Malacath Shack is simply there, adding nothing aside an overvalued weapon and taking away nothing but an empty plot of ground on the other side of Seyda Neen. I cannot endorse this, as it is a very early development, but I hope the modder expands on the concept in the future. My suggestion would be to add in a small quest and place the shack a little further out in the wilderness. A 3/5 for effort.
Thank you for your review. As I am still learning the TES Construction Kit, I am still learning how to make quests. Once I learn how better to use said kit, I will make improvements to this mod, however, as this is just a small mod, it will be a medium prority,
I intend to make a mod recreating Ashpit, but that is in pre-Alpha development.
Thank you for your review, I hope you keep watching for more mods to come
