📋 About This Mod
A mod that makes diseases more deadly and not just a mild inconvenience.
I KNOW THIS MOD HAS A FEW QUIRKS, I SWEAR I'M LOOKING INTO THEM THE BEST I CAN BUT I KINDA SUCK AT MODDING SO IF SOMEONE COULD LEND ME A HAND THAT'D BE LIKE, FANTASTIC. MOSTLY JUST WITH SOME DISEASES NOT WORKING AS INTENDED.
Version 1: You better stock up on potions boy-o, because your health doesn't regenerate, and your health is drained by 1 point per second, this applies to all diseases, except the two DLC ones and... Vampire disease, because I don't feel like looking the name up. And let me know if some effects don't work, because I still kinda suck at modding. Oh, and if you are in god mode when you catch the disease the drain effect for health doesn't seem to work even after you turn it off.
Version 2: This version eliminates the health drain effect, if that's too hardcore for you.
So, you ever been walking in a sewer, and a Skeever bit you.. And then that magical text in the corner of your vision basically says "hey yo... you now have ataxia."? And usually people's first reaction is like.. "OH ****!!!" And then you check active effects, and it's like "You are now 25% less effective at pickpocketing and lockpicking". And you're like "oh.. okay..", well, now, these diseases actually do something!! It won't make the game all that difficult because you can still just waltz up to any shrine and go "HEY! CURE IT!", and it will, but it will give a greater sense of urgency and immersion, the new effects are as follows:
Ataxia: Lockpicking and Pickpocketing are now 1000% more difficult. Bone Break Fever: Stamina is reduced by 100 points Brain Rot: Drains 100 magic Rattles: Stamina no longer regenerates Rockjoint: Reduce melee weapon skill by 52% (Why 52%? Idunno) Witbane: Magic no longer regenerates It also increases the odds of you contracting them... I think.. ... ENJOY! Sucker...
