📋 About This Mod
The default version only allows setting the global variables to the accepted values, as per GDO description.
What GDO does with those values doesn't depend on this patch.
The optional version has different conditions for 'memes' (no lollygagging, arrow in the knee, and so on) and 'guard says stop' (shouting) because in my opinion GDO is too restrictive.
The comments depend on the MCM settings instead of the original conditions about quests completed, 'thaneship', and so on.
I like to keep hearing them and don't feel offended :)
0 = Never
1 = 50% chance of being skipped
2 = No restrictions
And a small bonus, an idea for a "Guard Drill Overhaul" mod...

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 2,839 endorsements and 652,968 downloads show it's widely used and reliable.
- ESP-FE means it won't count against the plugin limit—great for heavy mod lists.
- Last updated in March 2024, so it's recent and likely compatible with current Skyrim versions.
⚠️ Cons
- Only works if you already have Guard Dialogue Overhaul installed—it's useless on its own.
- As a patch, it's purely additive; if you don't care about tweaking guard dialogue, you can skip it.
For Skyrim modders who use Guard Dialogue Overhaul and want to adjust its settings without digging through console commands or ini files. If you're a completionist who likes full MCM control over every mod, this is a must-have. Skip if you never touch MCM menus or don't use Guard Dialogue Overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have Guard Dialogue Overhaul installed first, then drop this mod after it in your load order.
- Since it's ESP-FE, you can safely place it anywhere after the master, but keeping it near the original mod is good practice.
- Use a mod manager like MO2 or Vortex to install—it's a simple drag-and-drop, but the manager keeps things tidy.
