About this mod
Simple mod that modifies the Very Hard or Survival difficulties to make the game far more lethal.
- Permissions and credits
I made this mod because I wanted a higher difficulty mod that doesn't require a save restart or compatibility patches or clean install.
I highly recommend using No health Scaling by MindfulDroid along with this mod to ensure you and enemies don't become spongy
the more you level up.
I've created a large variety of ESPs so you can choose exactly what kind of challenge you want to experience
Hopeless survival?
Fast action?
Slightly higher than vanilla?
These ESPs should cover all those bases.
[Things to note]
Depending on your ESP choice some enemies may become very easy to fight such as deathclaws, power armor enemies, robots, bosses, and all melee fighters.
This is a problem mostly due to high player damage output, if you want those enemies to still remain tough you might want to select a lower player
damage ESP.
From my testing player damage between vanilla and 5x is more than enough in most cases with enemy damage between 8x and 15x to keep things
balanced.
If your goal is simply faster and more deadly gunfights uncaring for melee fighters or lore based difficulty I suggest using the high damage
ESPs like x25 or x50 to ensure that level scaling doesn't make you stronger than the enemies.
I would recommend using a lower enemy damage in survival mode as it may become frustrating otherwise.
This mod was very easy to make and I don't claim to have put any real effort into creating it, I mostly made it for myself but decided to release it
so that people like me that don't want an overhaul can just download a simple single ESP mod and have fun.
[UPDATE]
2.1- Added 5x15 to 5x50 for survival mode.
