PLEASE READ THE SETTING DOWN BELOW after the intro, for your own sake lol.
INTRO
After 250+ hours of working on this LO, a mod that the legend u/St0vie personally hooked me up with, and testing from myself and u/pprblue2015; I am finally thrilled to say that our wonderful Overseer u/Danielle_Blume has given my LO it's OFFICIAL SEAL OF APPROVAL ✅
This is the culmination of over 39 consecutive days of work, hundreds of hours of sifting through over LITTERALLY 7000+ mods, and 2 previously scrapped LO's. Being as finicky as I am, grueling detail went into finding mods that added real substance and not just, "oh hey look, I spend half my mod limit on 40 gun files and 50 reload animations." lol, you know what LO's I'm talking about.
Not only do I genuinely believe that I have the prettiest and most particular looking indoors and night time lightings, but I put in the effort to make sure each feature added is completely fleshed out. So much so that I'd consider a good chunk of what I added to be a patch-work version of what amounts to a combat overhaul better than CURSE, MAIM, or anything else we have access to on Xbox.
I didn't focus on just one specific play style either! If you like melee, I've made it better. If you like shooting, I've made it better. If you like companions, I made them just as useful as the OP Lone Wanderer perk. If you like Elden Ring, I got you! You can now side step, dodge roll, and so can your companions and random NPCs! You want difficulty but without the tedious nonsensical SLOW paced upgrades of "770 perks"? I got you. You wanna feel OP but are worried about another broken, no-fun, god run? I know of a level 70 Alpha Matriarch Chameleon DeathClaw that'll say, "😎 a-ight, BET" (emphasis on the chameleon part)
Get lost in the realistic and cinematic audio with the most customizable, immersive, and minimalistic HUD you've ever had.
You wanna be jump scared? No? 😅 Too bad because you'll hear blood curdling screams through distant misty woods, just in time to hear a gutteral wailing in your ears from ghouls you didn't even know were present; UH-OH, Your arms and legs are broken now. I sure hope you can wrap that elastic bandage around your limbs fast enough to be able to inject yourself with a Stimpak, because it gets cold out there and the hypothermia will only make the shaking worse, especially when trying to hit your shots.
Speaking of... Do you like zombies? I've got you there too. I didn't just overhaul combat and add more ghouls, but I also added an entirely fresh infestation system that grows if ignored. So much so that the ghouls will spread and start seeking out your settlements; what a great chance to test out the upgraded settlement attack system!! And who knows, if you survive, maybe you'll get lucky enough to contract any number of 30 new mutations added in from a fully injected mutation network with every related mechanic from FO76 to ensure difficulty and personalization.
Do you hate super mutant suiciders? Grab your favorite rage pillow because now they're airborne and that's just the tip of the iceberg!
Hundreds of weapon customizations, new clothing customizations, &combinations. Wanna feel a bit like Iron man? Then call for your power armor from orbit; yes, actually summon it from the GAWD DAMN STRATOSPHERE. Why walk around in it 24/7?
Be a better cannibal! Deflect laser fire and bullets with laser rifle tech-based swords or any melee weapon for that matter. Do some PCP & BathSalts and blow a locked door wide open instead of wasting time with a lock pick. Kill Kellogg and actually get his cybernetics for yourself!
Hit the woods and camp out under the Milky Way for the night; Call a vertibird to pick you up and minigun down everything while it delivers you to Diamond City, where a very famous and special dru- I mean Chems deal... is waiting for you, so you can stock up before hitting up the newly lit up, Mannhattan-esk buildings and streets of Boston, all while wielding your new revolving shotgun grenade launcher that would make everyone's favorite new ghoul, Cooper Howard, very proud; with tunes from FO3 & FO:NV playing in the background and so, so much more.
DONT FORGET TO READ THE SETTING 😅
SUGGESTIONS
These 150 mods(1.99 gigs) are best played together and on Survival and due to the size, I strongly recommend you not only do a new game/save(yes even if you've downloaded any of my 2 previous LO's) but also clear your reserve space after deleting any mods you may have had previously. I also suggest at least considering deleting any other pre-existing MODDED saved games/characters cuz the mod changes will probably make something weird happen on a not new game.
IF YOU WANT TO PLAY THROUGH THE BEGINNING OPENING SEQUENCE make sure you disable the 2 Quick Start mods near the end of the LO, otherwise nevermind, you're all set. Or if you just wanna spawn outside of Vault 111 and go back in to loot the place, in which case the mods should be Enabled.
[In game message if using Quick Start] (do you have any mods that need to wait to be finished?) just say yes and wait patiently for a tiny bit like a few seconds. Once the game finally lets you start playing, be sure to chill out somewhere warm and just wait for everything in the top left corner to finish loading in.
-- Once you've survived the re-entry of Sanctuary, be sure to go to the "driveway" side of "your" house and look at the lockers; specifically the med box within the lockers and enter the chem station to craft any and all remaining missing settings holo-tapes. (If you started somewhere else you can use any chem station, it doesn't matter) oh and you might wanna craft some elastic bandages before heading out 😁😇
