Immersion mods I use for Cyberpunk 2077 | Update 2.1

what's up folks cross SG back with the final installment of my mod list series if you haven't watched the first two parts I talk about visual mods in part one and gameplay mods in part two links to those videos are in the description in part three we're going to take a look at the immersion Centric mods that I use and this is going to be a longer video because immersion Mods make up the majority of the mods that I use to keep things nice and tidy I have categorized them into four categories first we have World level mods and these are mods that generally affect the game world on a whole or specific locations in the game World second we have player level mods and these are mods that are more player specific affecting things from the players's perspective third we have romance enhancement mods and these mods affect the romance aspect of the game specifically anywhere from extending it enhancing it or even adding on more romance options and finally we have miscellaneous mods and these are mods that don't quite fit into any of the previous categories and of course the same reminder I have in all my mod videos please remember to check the mod Pages for any required mods and be sure to have those mods installed and updated okay let's do this starting with World level mods first up we have weather maner by RMK 1234 and this mod simply allows you to set the weather to whatever state you prefer it also allows you to alter the transition time whenever you change the weather State and the priority setting seems to control the potential to override some Quest related weather mechanics though I personally would not recommend messing with this option because it could break something in the game now the mod also allows you to reset the weather to its default cycle in the event of a bug or if you want things to return to normal after setting the weather for whatever reason weather Menor requires cyber engine tweaks code Weare native settings UI red for extension and red script and next up we have crowd E3 restored by Lexar and this mod restores about 100 additional NPC models that were either deactivated or for some reason dormant in the launch build of the game in English what that means is it just adds more variance to random crowd NPC so you see less clones walking around this mod is mainly for those who run High crowd density or maybe you run a crowd density boosting mod like psycho crowds yeah so this mod is mainly for them Crow E3 restored has no required mods moving on we have Night City Alive by Katan 1991 and this mod adds a whole bunch of Behavioral changes to the citizens of night City the description is long so I'll do my best to summarize it but I recommend reading the description in detail by yourselves the gist of it is it gives the various gangs and gang members specific law Centric routines and jobs in night City gangs can also interact with one another sometimes violently civilians are more responsive and reactive to both your activities and gang activities ncpd also becomes more responsive and more reactive to Gang Related activities in the game World overall this mod does exactly what its name says it makes night City feel more alive not just filled with NPCs roaming around for the sake of filling the empty spaces on your screen and of course this is mostly an immersive thing it doesn't change much in terms of gamep playay but with the increased activity you might find yourself occasionally and realistically caught within the crossfire of a random gang war or some scuffle the mod has three gang density options that you can download low standard and high which in turn affects the frequency and the severity of the random World occurrences I personally recommend standard because low doesn't seem to really add much at all and high goes in the complete opposite direction and can make things really chaotic now this mod doesn't have any mod specific requirements but it does require you to own Phantom Liberty and have red mod installed via steam or goog okay and up next we have the immersive mods by decep and you'll see quite a few mods by decep on my list immersion mods are kind of his or her thing I'll link their Nexus profile in the description in a nutshell the immersive mod series aims to add addition animations or very shortcut scenes to certain vendor interactions to make it feel way more immersive basically instead of just walking up and vendor says good day and you buy something and bug off it now feels more like you're actually briefly interacting with a person rather than an NPC there are mods for food vendors bartenders Ripper dos some of them have requirements some don't do check the mod Pages individually before downloading them moving on we have Lizzy's brain dancers and I'm going to quote the description here because it is as to the point as it gets this mod adds a menu to Lizzy's bar with the ability to select a brain dance with any known character the brain dance will then play the very well-known joy toy scene and there are three locations that you can choose from jig jig dark matter and the arasaka estate and in each location menu there is a catalog of characters that you can choose from now it is easy to brush off this mod as some weird Pawn thing for no life degenerate Gamers but the author describes its purpose quite well and I quote the main goal of this mod was not to make joy toy scenes but rather to make Lizzy's bar usable it feels weird that you can see a bunch of ads everywhere but right in the bar you can't do anything it doesn't offer anything and I completely agree with this description I have had the mod installed for a few weeks myself and I've only actually use the function exactly twice once when I first installed it to see what it was about and once to record the footage you're seeing in this video but the thing is just going about my game play knowing that Lizzy's bar is properly functional adds to the overall Game World polish if you get what I mean Lizzy's brain dancers requires archive XL decep Quest core and tweak XL okay that's it for the world level mods that I have personally installed but before we get to the player level ones I have a few other recommendations that you can check out if you want to we have Night City interactions by decep which adds extra functionality to certain bars around night City allowing you to grab a drink and invite an MPC friend to have a drink with you and chat this is not limited to your active romance interest but to all of them even if you haven't romanced them next we have gangs of night City by dedicated 24/7 and this one introduces a kind of gang role play play faction system that actually allows you to join a gang it also adds a whole bunch of unique gang spawns and random world events around night City now admittedly it was a little buggy for me when I used it but as a mod it is an extremely interesting one nonetheless and lastly we have Cosmopolitan night City by NTN Nexus and this mod brings added immersion by actually making certain groups of NPCs and even certain main NPCs speak to you in their respective nature languages Goro good to see [Music] [Music] you yo B my empathy now all of this is obviously customizable you know the mod's not going to force you to be spoken to in a certain language you can choose which groups of NPCs speak their native language which NPCs don't which NPCs speak to you in English Etc the base mod itself has v reply in English as normal or whatever your language of choice is but there is a polyot version that has v reply in whatever language they are spoken to in needless to say you need to have the subtitles enabled to run this mod unless you speak all the languages yourself the mod also comes with a dock toown Ed on for doct Town interactions and honestly look it isn't perfect okay in all languages it isn't perfect there might be a few instances where NPCs have to revert back to their English voice lines or sometimes they just use wrong gender identifiers or wrong honorifics in certain languages but overall this mod is very interesting to experience Cosmopolitan KN city has no additional requirements but do note that it might conflict with other mods that alter messages or voice lines all right moving on to player level mods and first up we have expert mode 3 by deos GSXR and this is a simple small mod with no requirements that replaces certain UI icons and markers in the game and this includes stuff like loot markers Shard markers ammo icons and stuff like that the goal is not to change or remove anything but to minimize and Shrink everything right to make them less intrusive this helps with immersion especially during combat when you're killing a bunch of stuff and loots dropping and you're getting all the loot icons pop up on the screen expert mode 3 comes with three different levels of minimization the basic level just replaces the large icons with smaller ones and keeps the general Behavior the same stoic makes it even more minimalistic by replacing loot rarity colors with just a universal there is loot here icon and of course hardcore basically removes all markers okay up next we have immersive first person by bonan Niki and this is another simple mod that allows you to see more of yourself when you look down much like you would be able to in real life and no I don't mean this in any sort of cheeky way it literally increases the fov when you tilt the camera down so that you can see more of your own body any cheekiness that results from this is entirely on [Music] you a it requires cyber engine tweaks to function and then we have immersive time Skip by DJ covick and this mod adds a bindable hotkey to activate a Time skip function that works exactly like the sleep function in the game except that you can access it from anywhere and it actually visually shows you the passage of time as you are skipping it it's a very neat and useful mod and it requires input loader red for extension and red script to function okay next we have no walk disabled by SJ box and this is an oldie but a goodie name kindness is it all it stops the game from annoyingly toggling walk on and off automatically no more randomly transitioning from walking to jogging you can actually walk with a quest NPC without having to stop every 3 ft to wait for them cuz the game suddenly puts you from walking mode to jogging mode randomly right no walk disable requires red script to function and it has not been updated for almost 2 years because it has never been broken by a patch at least not to my knowledge it still works today moving on we have better sleeves by Marco 4413 and this mod simply rolls V's sleeves down in scenes where V's arms are visible wow that's like a tongue twister anyway more accurately what it does is it just stops the game from showing these naked arms regardless of what you're wearing if you're wearing a jacket the jacket sleeves should show instead of your naked arms and the mod just ensures that the jacket sleeves show better sleeves requires cyber engine tweaks and another small mod is mph to kmh by graj and the variant I have installed is the one with realistic values no more cruising around a j-pack night City at speeds that rival the top speed of a Bugatti cheron while visually looking like you're actually only going at at 60 this mod scales the speed values to be much more realistic and in line with what the speed practically and Visually looks like in the game you can always use the normal in-game setting to toggle between rail World units and Star Wars units whatever reality you live in and this mod requires red script to function and last on the player level mods we have the passenger mod by deceptions and this mod makes Johnny spawn as a passenger in your car whenever you're driving around night City cuz you know it's Johnny and driving around night City can get lonely sometimes it requires decep Quest call to function and upon installation you just need to enter V's h10 apartment once and then leave it in order to trigger the mod permanently it also comes in two variants one that spawns Johnny every ride and one that spawns him every three rides of course deceptus has made sure that this mod doesn't conflict with any of the quests or gigs that require a passenger in the car if there's a passenger in the car Johnny just won't spawn okay onto the romance mods and this section is going to be largely dominated by mods from deceptions first up we have the romance enhance mod series and this is a mod for every romance option so download whichever one applies to you this mod essentially gives each said NPC a daily routine and schedule at their respective places of residence so rather than just standing around waiting for you to drop by you'll Now find them doing a variety of different things such as eating sleeping showering and so on at various locations in the vicinity depending on the time you drop by of course it also provides additional interaction options like hugging or kissing so in a way it works just like the Hangouts feature introduced in update 2.1 except that it involves you visiting them rather than them visiting you hello there the romance and H mods do not have any requirements to function and next we have romance Hangouts enhanced and this is a quality of life plus kind of a buck fix mod for the romance hangout feature that was introduced in 2.1 it fixes various messaging and animation glitches and also patches it to work with non-base game relationships such as male V with Judy male V with river and such it is a very new mod and will probably be receiving constant updates for a while until de setius has basically covered all the bugs in all locations and all scenarios okay and then we have the various extra Quest mods that involve your romantic partner you know quests like Hot Fuzz Encore Californication all of these add law friendly bonus quests beyond the stock quests in the game and that's all I'll say about it to keep it spoiler-free these extra quests require archive XL decep Quest core and red for extension okay those are the romance mods I currently have installed but here are a few other recommendation that you can check out if you want we have mods that give various bonus romance options such as Romancing auror Romancing R wheeler the Flaming crotch man yeah and all of these bonus romance mods are B deceptus and these are kind of self-explanatory they add various quests and requirements that end up unlocking relationships with the above characters the mods are well put together and they add some interesting variety to the game but they of course won't do anything major like affect the story or included in the end credits or stuff like that now like the extra Quest these mods all require archive XL decep Quest call and rate for extension and then there is Companions of night City by donk 74 and this mod allows you to invite your romantic partner to join you as an actual companion in your escapades in night City now I'm talking the full shebang they follow you around ride in your car with you they help you in combat they talk with you pass ask comments it isn't just for show and in combat they actually deal damage and they can be down though if they get down they revive automatically after a while the mod currently Works in 2.1 but has a couple of small functions broken such as the ability to give commands to your companion during combat otherwise the mod still functions properly as it should I strongly encourage you to read the description carefully before using this mod because there is a bunch of important stuff written there I don't have it currently installed because little conflict with the passenger mod and I'm waiting for it to be updated as well Companions of night City requires cyers script call and cycript core animation archive okay and last on the list of recommended mods are the romance messages extended mods of which one exists for Judy and the other exists for penan and somehow they are by different authors anyway these mods provide a law friendly extension and replacement to message exchanges between V and either Judy or Pam in a bit to keep the romance an ongoing thing rather than having contact somewhat cease after a certain point in vanilla I've only ever used the Judy mod myself and I can say that it definitely extends and adds depth to your interaction with Judy I don't have it installed at the moment because the mod assumes V is female and the text messages reflect it as such for those who' have watched my previous videos you would know that I almost always play male v so even if I did edit the save to unlock Judy as a romance option well the whole female messages thing kind of does the opposite of immersion so yeah I don't have the mod installed at the moment but the Judy mod at least that requires archive Exel decep Quest core RIT for extension and tweak XEL all right that's it for Rance mods and I'll just round things off with a couple of miscellaneous mods starting with Cybercat Save Editor and this mod allows you to edit your save files for a variety of purposes such as editing stats editing your character level unlock blocking gender loock romance options or importing and exporting V's appearance presets which basically defines how V will look in game so whether it is because you don't want to have to keep recreating the same V over and over again or perhaps you want to download a v preset from Nexus mod yeah so this is the Save Editor that will allow you to export or import those presets Cybercat Save Editor has no requirements and is run as a separate program outside of the game installing it play the app inside your cyber Punk folder you launch it from there point it to a save that you want to edit do your thing and overwrite the save just one quick note about the Save Editor it currently has at least three known conflicts with other mods and the three mods are random radio cyber arm cycle and upgrade weapons unlocked for those who watched my gameplay mod list upgrade weapons unlocked as one of the gameplay mods that I use the workaround would be to to temporarily deactivate the mod launch the game make a quick save then edit that quick save and reactivate the mod after that you will not lose any upgrades you made to your weapons by doing this those upgrades are permanent all right and last for this video would be the various car mods out there and these car mods add entirely new vehicles to the game ranging from law friendly ones to reskinning existing vehicles to adding very ious real world cars now some folks find this immersion breaking some don't I personally I'm impartial but I have all car mods currently disabled for my current playthrough honestly there are a ton of car mods on Nexus so I won't be talking about them individually if you watch some of my previous videos you probably would have seen some of the cars featured in those videos I'll just put links in the description to all the ones that I've personally used and that I think are very well done okay folks that a officially rounds up part three of my mod list series I'm sure there are plenty of great mods out there that I didn't cover in my videos and definitely more interesting ones to come in the future but for now I hope this was interesting and I hope this was helpful if you have any mods that you think I should try drop a comment down below and I'll go check them out otherwise that's it for now thumbs up if you liked it Crush that subscribe button and I'll catch you guys soon take care folks
