Food Spoilage
Description
Food Spoilage adds a realistic food degradation system to Cyberpunk 2077, making food and drinks spoil over time depending on their quality. This mod enhances immersion by requiring players to manage their inventory carefully, especially in harsh environments. Fresh food provides health regeneration bonuses, while spoiled food can cause poisoning penalties.
