True crime fans, this one's for you. Skinwalker is a crime thriller/psychological horror quest
mod revolving around a serial killer that has been silently preying on children for years.
Inspired by the classics like Silence of the Lambs, Along Came A Spider, Seven and,
more recently, Longlegs, this is a narrative-heavy mod with a single, relatively
lengthy quest focused on the investigation and building atmosphere.
If you want something closer to the typical Fallout experience with open-ended
gameplay, you're in luck because I made a whole other quest mod just for that.
To begin, head to the Old Mormon Fort in Freeside and look around for Alejandra.
Installation
Drop it in your Data folder or install with a mod manager as usual.
Put the plugin at the bottom of your load order to avoid conflicts.
In terms of compatibility, the Old Mormon Fort is the most likely
to require patching but there shouldn't be any major issues.
Disclaimer
It should go without saying that Skinwalker tackles some pretty dark material.
As usual, it's been handled in a mature and nuanced way, but I want to make it clear that
there's nothing explicit or gross. It's all conveyed through subtext and implication.
That being said, Skinwalker is not a pleasant mod.
You could say it's tonally inconsistent with the rest of New Vegas.
I'm not really into crime shows myself, but I wanted to try my hand at something different:
a genre piece with an investigation that's engaging to play. This is the end result.
The intention was never to disturb anyone, just to tell an interesting story, but be aware
of what you're getting into. Everyone has a different level of tolerance for this stuff.
