📋 About This Mod
Description:
In vanilla, when you take on a kill contract from the Dark Brotherhood, all dialogue options for the target NPC are removed for lines related to the kill.
This makes it impossible to do anything else with that NPC. For example, the optional Ivarstead quest The Straw that Broke can never be completed.
This mod will maintain the kill dialogue options, and all other dialogue (vanilla and mod-added), so you are never locked out of anything (unless you kill them).
Requirements:
Backported Extended ESL Support (If you're not running the latest Skyrim version)
Update History:
v1. 0. 0:
- Initial Release
Installation:
Install manually, or just use your favorite mod manager.
Plugin is ESL flagged. Safe to install at any time.
Updating:
Safe to update at any time.
Uninstallation:
Safe to disable or remove at any time.
Load Order:
When in doubt, just use LOOT.
Compatibility:
Should be compatible with everything. Surprisingly, I've not found anything that's done this yet...
