The developer of Live Dismemberment recommends that anyone who downloads this mod should also consider getting an older mod, BLEED. For example, if you manage to cut off or blow off someone’s leg, they would fall to the ground, being forced to crawl. Live Dismemberment adds distinct effects depending on what limbs are removed. This is a concept that appears in Fallout 4 when fighting Feral Ghouls and Robots, when you cripple their limbs, they are removed or visibly destroyed.
This mod, one of the top rated mods for May 2018 on the Fallout: New Vegas Mod Nexus, allows you to dismember your opponents before killing them. Have you ever felt like throwing grenades or using a meat cleaver on your enemies should do a little more than just lower their health bar? Then you need Live Dismemberment.
This post was originally written by Tyler Krasnai. Although the mod maker is not a native English speaker, and the mod takes some interesting design choices, Salt Lake Stories was one of the top rated mods of Feb. Fallout: New Vegas does a good job of adding some ways to get around more violent encounters with various skill checks, but Nexus user Yossarian22 has taken it a step further. For the most part, Bethesda’s Fallout games take a less nuanced approach to interactions, meaning that more often then not you will end up fighting people to get your way. A second large choice is a removal of larger action sequences. One of the developer’s interesting choices involving the mod was the choice to remove quest markers, as well as blatantly obvious quest direction, forcing players to explore the world to solve their problems, which was something the original Fallout games implemented very well, with things such as the final encounter with The Master in Fallout having multiple non-violent solutions.
The mod features some adult content, and is mostly based on files from Van Buren, the unreleased third Fallout game from Black Isle studios, before the franchise came under Bethesda’s wing.
