The karma system was noticeably absent from Fallout 4, and while I it it wasn't for everyone in previous games, I love how it integrates with faction reputations in New Vegas to create a truly reactive world that always feels receptive to your choices. If you've ever wondered what karma would look like in The Commonwealth there's a new mod just for you, and you can even adjust the parameters of the system yourself.
ed by 'bp42s' the Fallout 4, now's your chance.
Now, the karma system does get a lot of flack for how black and white it is in the newer Fallout games, but this mod lets you choose what gives or takes away karma, so you can tweak the mechanic to your liking. You can turn off gaining karma from healing companions and claiming settlements for example, while faction events can be split between karma gains, losses, or be entirely neutral to your standing. Perhaps you want to get away with stealing or lockpicking? Well, you can turn the karma penalties off these actions individually too.
There are even custom karma sounds, more level-dependent karma titles like in the previous games, and custom Pip-Boy icons, so it should feel like a legit integration of the karma system that you can edit yourself.
The bp42s karma mod can be ed Fallout 4 next gen update shouldn't impact the mod at all, but I'd still be careful.
Our Fallout 5 release date should make the eternal wait slightly more bearable.
