Can any1 share some screenshots from the western mod? I'd like to see if its worth downloading before starting the 80gb dl.
Thank you
tl;dr: if you got the hard drive space, time, and want something that will make Son of Bitch seem fresh again, then I highly recommend the western mod if you want to do a fresh playthrough.
Don't have it downloaded anymore to save hard drive space, but I'll list some Pros and Cons (though take with a grain of salt since everyone's preferences are different):
Pros:
-All the videos have SOUND. This is the biggest pro for me, just way more enjoyable than the silence during sex scenes. Sure it doesn't always match what the text is, but its worth the trade off imo.
-vids are higher quality than vanilla most of the time (though this has two cons, listed below)
-more modern porn stars. Definitely prefer Angela White as the model for Mom for instance (but thats personal preference). Most models are different, but a few are the same (Elsa is still Elsa Jean for instance and her videos are largely the same, just with sound now).
-Makes the game feel new again, which is nice with its future in limbo (i know .30 is 'out', but still no good-ish english release)
Cons:
-Massive space hog, since the vids are higher resolution and way longer than the vanilla clips
-Many vids don't match contextually with the text/plot and often are super long compared to normal. This also leads to some different position and action options during sex to not really line up or have a bit of buffer time for the action to start.
-Some model swaps are downgrades imo, like ditching Piper Perri/Lena, Arina/Ariana Marie, or Alena/Amia Miley for example. This is personal preference though, as opposed to the first two cons. Don't have a complete list or anything though on hand for who swaps to who.
-Maybe not great for a first playthrough due to things not matching contextually with the story and text. Then again, i don't think many people are playing this thing for the plot
Hope this helps you and anyone else curious!
