The Pariah mode is a challenge mode that makes the player hated forever by absolutely every factions and NPC in the Zone.

BACKGROUND STORY
----------------
You are waking up, but you feel that something isn't right.
Yes, the Zone has always been a mystery, but you see people staring at you with an intense hatred.
They are not welcoming you like they should, no .. they want to kill you !
This is all wrong ... no ... it's not wrong actually, you start to understand.
Those aren't people, those aren't friends, their existence is what is wrong in the zone.
You must act now and make things right.
----
NOTE
----
Ideally this could be an option in the Faction Selection menu, but my very poor editing skill is puzzled
It should have something to do with editing the ui_mm_faction_select.script in the script folder, but how to do that correctly is beyond what i know.
If someone know how to do that, please go ahead, no need to ask permission.

WHAT IS THE PARIAH MODE
-----------------------
The Pariah mode is a challenge mode that makes the player hated by absolutely every factions and NPC in the Zone.
You'll have to fight your way through every enemies in any location you'll visit, loot their fallen corpse to survive.
The player is given the psy helmet so he can access the miracle machine and brain scorcher if he wants
because there's no questline , no friendly task giver, no enthousiast trader to help you.
They all hate you totally and will do everything they can with their weapon to remove you from the Zone definitively.
The addon also makes sure factions relationships do not change so no faction would accidentally become neutral to the player.

Note : be very very cautious in the starting location you choose, chances are that it will be hell to get out of it alive.
update 1..1
for some fun, added an option that makes it so factions are hostile to each other and will never change their stance.
looks neat!
S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Public enemy
Nice
I would love for this to be the Wish Granter's response if you want the Zone to disappear.
New task: GET OUT ALIVE.
Aaaand you have to make it all the way back to the gate south of Cordon.
EDIT:
to also actually comment on the addon: it is a ton of fun. If I had the know-how, I would replace Survival mode with Pariah mode in my package. Survival is boring. Pariah is crazy intense. It's been on my mind a lot the last few months. There's something there. Someday.
update 1.2
because why not, added an option that makes it so everyone is hostile to everyone.
Yes, it's going to be a bloody mess.
