Cyberpunk 2077 just got a fully-featured and comprehensive Urban Survival Immersion Μod
by John Papadopoulos · DSOGamingModder ‘Dark Fortune Teller’ has just released an amazing mod for Cyberpunk 2077, called Dark Future. Dark Future is a fully-featured and comprehensive Urban Survival, Gameplay, and Immersion Mod. This mod will completely change the way you play CDPR’s title. So, let’s take a closer look at it.
Dark Future adds to the game features like Basic Needs, Injury, and Addiction. So, for instance, you’ll now have to stay hydrated. You’ll also have to look out for your energy and your nutrition.
The primary mechanic of Dark Future is Nerve, which represents how calm and collected you are. When Nerve is low your breathing becomes rapid, your hands tremble when aiming, and Stamina takes longer to begin recovering. When Nerve is very low, you will become too nauseous to eat and drink, and too restless to sleep. If Nerve reaches 0, you will suffer a fatal heart attack. Also note that Nerve is the only Basic Need that can kill you. So, make sure to keep that in mind.
Nerve will be lost rapidly when exposed to stress. For instance, being in combat or traced from Quickhacks while undetected will lower it. You can replenish your Nerve by engaging in relaxing activities, or by consuming certain substances.
Dark Future introduces four Basic Needs. These are Nerve, Hydration, Nutrition, and Energy. You’ll see them represented on the HUD as meters just below the Health and Stamina bars. They show and hide based on context, just like Health and Stamina.
Players will also need to periodically return to one of their Hideouts to recover. Showering, dancing, spending time with a romantic interest, and other relaxing activities are the best (and healthiest) ways to restore Nerve.
As said, the mod also adds features like Addiction and Injury. You can find more details about them on its NexusMod page, from where you can also download it.
This is a must-have mod for everyone who wants to replay CP2077. At the end of the article, you can also find a playthrough video with this mod.
If you’re into Cyberpunk 2077, there are some cool mods you should check out. These mods should be compatible with this latest version. So, for starters, you can download the Enhanced Photo Mode Unlocker. There’s also a mod that allows cars to fly, as well as other mods that can open up new areas to explore. Then we have this mod that adds a cool Grand Theft Auto-inspired Taxi Driver Mode. Oh, and don’t forget these mods that allow you to play as Ciri from The Witcher 3.
If you don’t want to pay for a graphical mod, you can improve the game’s graphics with the following free mods. For instance, you can use the Ultra+ Mod. Not only does it improve the quality of Path Tracing but it also improves performance. Its creator has claimed that it can speed up PT performance by 30-40%.
If, on the other hand, you don’t want to use it, you can, you can try some other Path Tracing/Ray Tracing Mods. For instance, this mod disables all the fake lights when using PT/RT. And then we have this mod that can improve the path-traced reflections.
There are also some free HD Texture Packs to use. For example, you can use Cyberpunk 2077 HD Reworked or this other HD Texture Pack that improves all trees. There’s also another pack that improves the textures of almost all buildings, terrain, and environments. However, these packs don’t work together. Therefore, you’ll have to use only one of them.
Additionally, there’s a mod that adds realistic ragdoll physics to finishing moves. Plus, Law Enforcement Overhaul is a mod that enhances the game’s Police System. And there’s even a mod that integrates the OpenAI API which enables ChatGPT support. Responsive NPCs is another cool mod that enables dynamic NPC reactions. Don’t sleep on it as it can enhance your gaming experience. And finally, this mod restores 100 NPCs that were cut from the game.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!
