The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Game Mod - Enderal Gameplay Overhaul – EGO v.1.81 - Download

Enderal Gameplay Overhaul – EGO is a mod for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, created by Ixion XVII. Make sure to endorse the mod on the nexus mods page if you liked it.

Description (in author’s own words):

This is a complete overhaul of the gameplay mechanics of Enderal. This includes a ton of balance changes, improvements to the ai, new gameplay mechanics, new weapons/spells/potions and much more.

The mod is heavily inspired by older RPG's (such as Gothic, Kings Field, Baldurs Gate, etc.) and by the Skyrim Mod "Requiem". The changes made lead to a harsh and unforgiving world with more consistent and immersive gameplay.

MAIN FEATURES

Over 3 years in development with several hundred hours put into it

Difficulties no longer drastically change the damage multipliers and only change the damage of enemies

Fixed Problems with high damage multipliers/health on many enemies

All actions cost stamina. 70% or more stamina = damage bonus, 30% or less = damage reduction

Blocking with shields or weapons is much more efficient, heavy shield bash is now available

Heavy Armor is better but will slow the wearer and will increase mana cost for spells

Clothing/no armor increases movement speed and reduces manacost but no longer grants armor

Followers like Calia/Jespar are no longer invincible and will fall down if they would die

AI reacts better, attacks/blocks more frequently

Archers now use Arrows and will switch to melee weapons if needed

Certain creatures (like Bears and Trolls) will knockback the player with some attacks if the player isn't blocking

Undead have drastically increased armor and resistances. Added new silver weapons, silver arrows

Ghosts have drastically increased resistances. Bypass it with silver weapons or with a new consumable called "Ghost Curse"

More diversity between creatures. Some Examples:

Mud Golems (Troll Template) regenerate Health very slowly and have increased resistances

Steppe Crusher (Deer Template) are more aggressive and have a new attack pattern

Boneshredder (Vatyr Template) are slower and have increased armor, magic/poison resistances

Crystal Elementals (Frost Elemental Template) have new resistances, no longer deal frost damage in an AoE around them, removed frost FX

Spiders have different poisons (slow, paralyze or increased damage poisons) and big spiders will knock the player back

Giants, Bears, Spiders, Trolls, Mud Golems have new attack patterns

Starling Guardians use their crossbow, Starling Centurios use their steam breath

35 new Potions/Poisons and rebalanced the others (in most cases they are stronger now)

25 completely new Spells (many of them didn't even exist in Skyrim)

Manacost is drastically increased, Manacost reduction perks are now mandatory to properly cast spells

Completely rebalanced elemental spells. Some spells were just much better than others of the same rank.

Removed Secure Chests and replaced them with 3 normal chests in Ark, Riverville and Duneville

Many hints that had unimmersive or simply too much information were removed

Stealth/Pickpocketing/Lockpicking rebalanced and overall made harder

Loot is much more diverse. Animals/Creatures will drop appropriate items

Many, many other changes. More informations are below and in the changelog

INFORMATIONS

- This mod is not fully save game compatible (many modifications work but for example enemies that you already spawned won´t have some of the changes included in the mod)

- If you still want to install the mod midgame then i highly suggest to loot everything out of your secure chest before installing. After installing the mod drop everything in your inventory, loot it again and wait 5 days indoors.

- I will not offer optional mods that remove individual functions and i will not offer modules or a MCM menu but I will gladly accept feedback.

- This mod should not cause crashes or other major issues, since no scripts are applied and everything is properly tested.

- This is a complete overhaul of the game and as such most mods will cause conflicts! Only install other gameplay altering mods if you know what you are doing!

- The recommended difficulty is adept! Every difficulty below or above, increases/decreases the enemy damage multiplier by 0.15. (Adept multiplier = 2.00)

- There is a skyrim engine bug that refreshes the vendor inventory every time you exit the game and reload your save. Simply reload after loading your save to fix this!

- If you have any more questions feel free to join the discord group: "https://discord.gg/UF6aV3S"
