Skyrim's Latest Immersive Stealth Mod Lets You Spy Through Keyholes

screenrant.com:

An impressive new Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim mod lets players peek through the keyholes of doors, making eavesdropping and stealth all the easier on more roguish playthroughs. Bethesda’s massive open-world RPG continues to maintain a strong player base even over a decade after it was first released, thanks in no small part to the ever-popular Skyrim modding community. Over the years, a number of fan mods have helped to improve and make the Bethesda classic even more immersive, adding additional stories and quests, improving graphics and stability, and even introducing memes into Skyrim.

Part of what makes Elder Scrolls games like Skyrim so popular is the vast amount of freedom they afford players to craft their playable characters as they see fit — even in vanilla non-modded versions of the game. In Skyrim, players can portray their version of the legendary Dragonborn as a Nord warrior or an Argonian mage if they so wish, marry and start a family with one of several NPC suitors, or even become a monstrous vampire or werewolf on top of their ancient dragon abilities. Naturally, one of the playstyles available to Skyrim players involves stealth, and the Dragonborn can be trained to pick any lock they come across to loot the treasure on the other side or take a sneakier approach toward reaching a certain objective. Stealth mechanics have long been a topic of interest for modders, with Skyrim mods adding new locks to pick, and generally improving what's natively available in-game.
