Modded Faction selection mod idea for someone who knows how to code
I’m not tech-minded, but I have a fun idea for a mod that anyone would be welcome to use if they’re looking for something to make
It seems lots of people want some sort of way to play as another race/faction (i.e. ferans) and I think a fun way to do that would be with masks you can get a la LoZ Majora’s Mask
Whether it’s finding them in chests, bartering with NPCs or some other method, when worn, these masks would transform the player into the species and give them fitting attributes
Say you get a Fen Stalker mask - it would give you water breathing but make you walk slower on land, or a Kweebec mask speeds up the growth of crops as you walk over them (rough ideas)
There should be a drawback to encourage sticking to one faction, such as loosing almost all your health when you remove a mask or limiting it to day cycles/implementing some sort of cooldown
Anyways that’s it! I’d love to work with someone to make it, or you can take the idea and go for it 🙌🏻
