This delays the Watchtower questline until a configurable point in the main quest.

Motivation

All Bethesda games like to throw a tonne of quests and activities at you, it can be a little overwhelming. One Skyrim mod I've always loved is Timing Is Everything by Kryptopyr, which lets you set triggers for questlines depending on your level, progress through the main quest etc. This does something similar for Watchtower, rather than encounter Watchtower within a couple of jumps of starting the game, you now can push it back till a later stage in the main quest.

How to use it

Use the gameplay options to choose a main quest to start before Watchtower triggers.

There are four options to choose from:

  • Neighbourhood - just after meeting Constellation. This is in effect the same as vanilla
  • All that Money can Buy - around 30% in, shortly after gaining your first power.
  • Unity - takes place after a major event in the main storyline, 70% through the main campaign. Default setting, this feels a good point in the story to go off and do something different for a bit.
  • Entangled- towards the end of the main campaign 90% through. Treating Watchtower as endgame content.

note that these refer to the quest started rather than finished, as soon as the named quest is in your log, you can expect Watchtower to start.

If you are choosing to skip Main Quest in an NG+ run, then this mod will immediately allow Watchtower to start.

Safe to uninstall, does nothing once Watchtower has been triggered.

Watchtower is a great mod, but it does tend to take over your universe once it becomes active. After playing through it a couple of times, I began wanting a NG+ that was free from it for a bit. That's where this mod excels. It adds a setting to prevent Watchtower's takeover from starting until a configurable point in the quests of the main storyline.
