📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 716 endorsements and a massive 154k downloads—clearly fills a need.
- Simple concept, executed well: no bloat, just unique looks for NPCs that stand out.
- Recent update (Feb 2024) means it's likely still compatible with the latest game version.
⚠️ Cons
- Purely cosmetic, so if you're after gameplay changes, this won't add any.
- Potential conflicts with other mods that alter the same NPCs—check your load order.
For players who want to add visual variety to their game without overhauling everything. If you're tired of seeing the same faces on important NPCs, this is a quick fix. Skip if you prefer gameplay-altering mods or if you're happy with the default appearances.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod changes NPC appearances, load it after any mods that affect the same NPCs to ensure its changes take priority.
- Use a mod manager to easily toggle this mod on/off if you suspect conflicts with other appearance mods.
- Check the mod's comments section for user reports on which NPCs are changed—this can help you decide if it's what you want.
