📋 About This Mod
After 1000 hours in Elden Ring, it was time for a new cast of characters...
This mod changes every single boss, NPC and Spirit Summon name in every instance you can find them. That means boss health bars, NPC dialogue choices, subtitles, armor, weapons, item descriptions and more. The catch? They're all named after inside jokes, memes, puns, and all manner of nonsense I've come across in the Elden Ring community. You'll never look at the lore or armor you equip the same way ever again.
There's about 400 bosses/characters, so I will not be listing them on this page. However, I will provide the full lists of names as optional text files you can download and peruse. I had a ton of fun coming up with these stupid names and recalling all the "wondrous" ones the gaming community has given to Elden Ring. Enjoy the absurdity :)
This is a sister mod to my other works, Location Name Replacements and Message Replacements.
Author's Choice - This download option combines my Replacement series of mods. Go full brainrot with edits to all characters, locations and on-screen messages. Special Sippy Cups included. Visit the other two mod pages for screenshots and lists.
Disclaimers! Please Read!
This mod changes every single instance of a character's name. That means maps, sites of grace, item descriptions, subtitles, and more. This was achieved via mass text replacement in Smithbox. Meaning all I had to do was type the name and what I wanted to rename it to, and the program would automatically change all text in the game instantly. This saved me HOURS of work, and few were hand edited individually. As a consequence, there will be grammatical errors and spelling mistakes. I am not going through thousands of lines of text by hand to make sure they read okay. This mod does not change spoken audio to match the edited subtitles.
I use REVENANT ReShade, specifically the Lush version with a couple tweaks of my own. This is reflected in the screenshots I took for this mod, so keep in mind that it may look differently for you if you do not use a ReShade!
DO NOT attempt to play the game online while using any mods or you will be banned! Download Anti-cheat toggler and offline launcher to circumvent EAC, or if you use Mod Engine 2 then that program will automatically disable it.
