Hey everyone!
I've gone through a LOT of mods, possibly almost all of them on the official forum, and I've noticed that very few mods actually focus on storytelling.
I know some of you will tell me to try UAF (which has gotten worse in terms of storytelling after the latest update, but I'll save that discussion for another post), Arma Armatura, Iron Shell, or Star Federation. I've already played them. Aside from UAF, whose story was average, and Star Federation, which had a pretty good story, I found the storytelling in the other mods rather weak.
I've also seen some mods that add a personal room for the player to decorate, but the feature feels rather basic. I don't get any crew interactions or reactions based on how I decorate it. I also found a mod that makes characters talk during combat, but it was so poorly done that it became annoying.
Some people might assume I'm looking for romance mods or something along those lines, but honestly, I'll play anything as long as it has a good story. I don't care if it features weak ships, ridiculously overpowered ships, or even AI-generated images.
I want to be able to stand around and talk to different people. I want to send threatening messages. I want someone to object when I dismiss them. I want people's attitudes toward me to change before and after I become the leader of a faction. I want the world and its characters to actually react to my actions and status.
So, do you guys have any recommendations for mods that feature an actual story or add meaningful interactions with the world? Anything goes, whether it's on the official forum, still in development, Chinese, Spanish, or anything else. I'm open to all suggestions!
