Do you want the game to be more challenging? If you do, this mod helps make it a bit more of one. As soon as monsters see you,they start coming after you. You can no longer just walk around and run past the monsters—they will get you.
Before monsters appeared on the map, random battles happened. This mod helps recreate that feeling. You also might have to grind a bit to get through an area.
