TRUE EXPERIENCE [NIGHTMARE]


This is a variant of my True Experience mod, the NIGHTMARE version.

In this version, everything will be much more deadly, and besides, you won't get many rewards other than money or ammo, which means you'll have to look for them or buy them.

ALL CHANGES [TE → TE Nightmare]:

- All quest rewards were changed.
- Less money from soldiers and chests.
- Medkit now heals 25% instead of 30%.
- Stronger Soldiers.
- Stronger Achondar.

- Less resistance to fire and explosions.
- Travel speed of bullets are slower.
- Harder to create ammo boxes.
- Ammo boxes now contain more ammo.
- Traps are more lethal.
- Talans are more fragile.
- Other small tweaks.

NOTE: You can find 2 more versions of TE Nightmare in the optional files, one increases your amount of ammo in the game and the other decreases it, try one of them if the base version is not to your liking.

TRUE EXPERIENCE [CHALLENGE]

This is a variant of TE Nightmare, the CHALLENGE version.

This version, unlike my previous versions, is not meant to be fair, just a difficult challenge to overcome, the enemies are at the limit of the difficulty we can get in this game without making it totally impossible, and everything else is much deadlier in general .

ALL CHANGES [TE Nightmare → TE Challenge]:

- Less money from soldiers and chests.
- Medkit now heals 15% instead of 25%.

- Stronger Soldiers.
- Stronger Achondar.
- Stronger Ventilopes.

- Stronger Sankaars.
- Stronger Ventilopes.
- Stronger birds.
- Stronger Oogoobars.
- Less resistance to fire and explosions.
- Traps are more lethal.
- Talans are more fragile.
- Other small tweaks.

Good luck fellow Adelphians!


WARNING
Yes, there's 1 downside in using this mod, the final battle. I wasn't able to change the amount of equipment we receive in the end, leaving the final battle almost impossible if you try to kill all enemies, so, if you want to win, you'll have to focus on killing Kroax.




MY PERSONAL THOUGHTS


Let's be honest about one thing, EVERYTHING in this game is very easy to do and get, there's no challenge at all, even with no targeting assistance, low damage resistance and only using the first weapon without upgrades throughout the entire game. The purpose of this mod is to change that, to make the game more challenging.

Now you'll not have as much ammo as before, the resources will have more purpose as you'll actually need the recreators, all prices are also different and more balanced, and to compensate for the lack of money in soldiers and chests, almost all quests will also reward you with Zorkins (something that didn't occur too often before), your reputation will also have more impact in your rewards, so keep that in mind.


Another thing is that everyone was being affected equally to your good/bad actions, now the effect is smoother on Talans not involved in the situations.
