📋 About This Mod
You sneakily execute a character and they somehow still find the time to declare that you will suffer greatly, expound with confidence on the magnitude of the suffering you are in for, or propose you 'surrender your life to them so that they will end your pain' (while in the process of lying down on their face). No longer.
This had really been bugging me for the past decade.
(note: NPCs still use their attack voices - they are only bypassed on instant kills, using the normal death Hit voices instead. Additional Attack voice fixes included.)
DISCLAIMER: in the original engine, the game will still incorrectly give two error messages if a peaceful NPC attacks you straight from their first dialogue greeting. The game proceeds normally if you click "yes" to both. This is a general engine issue which, as of May 2021, is fixed only by the new beta version of MCP. It is not fixed in the released MCP 2. 4.
Empty Threats Disabler removes attack voice lines like "You will suffer greatly" that play during sneak kills or other instant deaths. This audio mod cleans up repetitive combat dialogue for players who find it immersion-breaking. With 208 endorsements and 36,109 downloads, it's a niche but popular quality-of-life tweak, last updated in 2018.
