DESCRIPTION
No Essential NPCs
THIS CAN BREAK QUESTS IF YOU ARE NOT CAREFUL, THINK BEFORE YOU USE!
Are you on some kind of a rampage?
Or maybe trying to play some extremely cursed challenge?

What exactly does this mod do:
Removes the 'Essential' tag from all NPCs.
Remember that if you kill an NPC that is tied to a quest, you either resurrect them with a command or the quest is unfinishable!
Remember this mod is just for fun, I'd suggest not using it for actual playthroughs

Manual Installation:
Extract the zipped folder into the MAIN GAME FOLDER
Then make sure that your 'Plugins.txt' has the 'NoEssentialNPC.esp' added at the end of the list
Your main game folder will be:

for GamePass its more like:
YourDriveLetter:\XboxGames\The Elder Scrolls IV- Oblivion Remastered\Content\
Your Plugins.txt file in the:
Oblivion Remastered\OblivionRemastered\Content\Dev\ObvData\Data
Should look similar to this (NoEssentialNPC and any other ESP mods must be added at the end):
