📋 About This Mod

The purpose of this mod is to keep a malus for stealing, without getting hudge penalties. To me, it\'s not realistic to have a very evil karma when you helped everybody in the Wasteland. Now stealing gets you a malus of -1 Karma instead of -5 Karma. Enjoy :)

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

This Fallout: New Vegas mod reduces the Karma penalty for stealing from -5 to -1, allowing players to steal without heavy moral consequences. It's a simple tweak for those who want a lighter punishment system.

✨ Key Features

Reduces Karma lost for stealing from -5 to -1
Maintains a small penalty to keep some consequence

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Simple and effective: one change that makes stealing less punishing
  • Community-approved with 500 endorsements

⚠️ Cons

  • Only affects Karma loss, not other stealing consequences like reputation or bounties
  • No compatibility notes for other mods that alter Karma or stealing mechanics
  • Last updated in 2010, so it may not be compatible with newer mods or patches
🎯 Is This For You?
For Fallout: New Vegas players who want to steal without feeling like a total villain. If you're a roleplayer who wants a more forgiving moral system, this is for you. Skip if you want deeper gameplay changes or if you prefer the original harsh Karma penalties.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • This mod is a simple file drop into your Data folder, no mod manager needed.
  • If you use other mods that affect Karma, load this one after them to ensure the change applies.
  • Check your current Karma before and after stealing to see the difference.
