📋 About This Mod

ESL FLAGGED!

SUMMARY :

Short side quest/ unique encounter mod. It plays on the base story, doesnt rewrite it. Wayne is losing most of his cognitive function by this point. The only thing that keeps him going is his drive to destroy the tower, but he's waiting on a key component... He doesn't seem to remember how long he's been waiting though...

WHAT THIS MOD DOES :

1. Gives Wayne Gorski an actual character instead of being a simple named feral.

2. He now has scripted, fully voiced dialogue scenes and player conversations. Player is voiced.

3. Original Wayne has been renamed to "Gorski's Assistant" and is still set as the dungeon boss.

4. Don't bother him again unless you have what he asks for.

5. Does he know what he's doing?

WHAT THIS MOD DOESN'T DO :

He is not a companion. This just makes his character a little more interesting.
