On the one hand, it adds a level of realism and strategy with item management. Ah, the blessings and curses of finite inventory. This mod is a god-send for those like me who, while they appreciate narrative, sometimes just want to get straight to killing monsters. Luckily, there is t his mod that disables the story recap scene. It is kind of a weird move from CD Projekt Red to not give you the option to manually disable these recap cutscenes. Load times are already long enough in Witcher 3, and the mandatory story recap narration that play whenever you manually load a game file gets really old, really quick. Trophies effects actually make sense given the enemy they come from and now are more useful instead of offering relatively cosmetic effects. They are then strapped to your horse Roach and give extra buffs in combat or exploration. Trophies are parts of monsters that you harvest after completing a witcher contract. So, if you have ever felt like embracing a more traditional RPG tank-style approach to combat, then this mod is for you. The mod includes over 40 different shields to use, each lore-friendly and naturally integrated into the game world. This mod allows Geralt to equip a shieldso he can block enemy attacks, deflect arrows, and give enemies a gnarly shield bash. Geralt is not your typical witcher, though.
