User blog comment:Jimeee/Hearthfire confirmed as the latest add-on. Official trailer./@comment-92.14.21.166-20120828163706/@comment-4905149-20120830073203

Actually, this is not like the vanilla where you pay for it and it suddenly shows up. You build all the furniture, walls, floors, and gardens step by step. I believe it is fully customizable, except for the color scheme part. Although I assume the colors are different depending on which city owns the plot of land, i.e. Whiterun will have golden and white houses, while Solitude would have dark stone. Although, we don't know yet so we can't make assumptions. There are 2-3 different raced children and maybe they'll add more since there currently are only two orphanariums I believe. Maybe they will add more with different kinds of children. Also, what do you mean, "Do they do... anything special in the game...? Probably not." What do having kids do in real life? They play with you, live in your house, and get presents/allowance from you. If you wanna be a downer then fine, but I believe I've supplied substantial evidence that proves you wrong. Especially when talking about something no one in the public has used yet. Maybe there will be different color schemes, any combination of rooms, and every race of children and wives! We can't assume that since it wasn't in a brief, only explanatory trailer, it won't be in the game. The Dawnguard trailer didn't talk about Vampire Lord perks, new shouts, the Face Molder, Oblivion, etc. Just, don't complain until it is released.
