This mod is inspired by The Legend Of Zelda - Breath of the Wild and features a lot of gameplay- and mechanic changes to hopefully make you feel like you are playing a familiar but also quite different and fresh Dark Souls.
Check the description for more details.
How to use
You have to play the game in English or German, otherwise all changes made to text won´t appear in your game!
I reccomend you start a new character. Installing this mod is very easy:
- Download my files
- Download this awesome tool Nexusmods.com if you haven´t already --Credits go to RavagerChris37
- Open DSDAD (the tool you just downloaded)
- Drag and drop the files into DSDAD
- Launch Dark Souls via DSDAD
--> If anything is unclear, there is a more detailed Installation Guide in the archive
How to use (Alternative)
If you have unpacked your Dark Souls files, then you can still play with my mod.
Follow the "How To Install Manually.txt" in the archive! It is similar to installing
Prepare to die again, but this time there are more files. So please make sure,
that you drop everything into the correct folder.
Feature list
- Weapons will break very fast and can not be repaired normally, so you have to
check your inventory more often and consider which weapon suits best for
each situation
- Enemies drop weapons much more often
- Weapons can be upgraded by only using souls (some upgrades require additional items)
- Changes to the moveset of some weapons
- Created new items or added new effects to existing ones (New Buffs and new Healing items)
- Changed the inventory of vendors
- Changed some Weapons (Name, damage, description, scaling, effects...)
- New starting classes
- New starting gifts
- Altered and new boss fights
- More freedom to explore Lordran (More areas to go to from the beginning of the
game because of the removal of the orange fog. A lot of the game will become "optional" but will be needed to have an easier time with the endboss)
- Event-based enemy spawn
- New changes to the level spawn but based on Prepare to die Again
- Small changes to item-loot based on Prepare to die Again
- Changed some spells
- Changed bonfire positions based on Prepare to die Again
- Changed stats of bosses
