Birds are chirping, your neighbors are being nice, happy place in space, AND YOU HATE IT!
And so do i. This mod makes space exploration more logical, as in, not a place for civilians to explore.
When i first played Starfield, there was something i always wanted. Dangerous yet rewarding place.
Space pirates attacking, pillaging, only the strong to survive. The big problem however, 90% of the jumps
i did, always had these friendly people greeting you like you are living in the friendliest neighborhood
in the universe. Why would a school bus ship carry kids in Jaffa? Right above an ecliptic base?
or an arguing couple who keeps following you asking what direction they sould take, or the 800th uranus joke.
And whats the deal with grandma offering food to strangers? I dont know about you, but i wouldnt invite strangers to my
ship in the unknown space. All the derelicts i found are suppsoed to show how dangerous and sad space can be, but with the
vanilla space encounters, space is a sit-com. I remember i found a derelict ship that had a couple, who lost their child and
they decided to spread their child’s ashes into space. Incredibly sad moment. But right after that after a jump, a guy
shows up and tells a uranus joke, completely messing up the whole mood.
My mod removes the following space encounters:
Grandma
Arguing couple (you are so not funny, just stop)
Rock scientist asking for ore that takes 200 years to start up their gravdrive
Uranus joke jester
School class
Tourist bus ship
The religious university who keeps pestering you with ”just wanna talk”
The Party boat
Father and his daughter selling a juice pack (as wholesome and adorable this one is, it doesnt fit here).
And a few other, silly, less serious encounters.
The rest are kept as is, such as the LIST Ship that need help, pirate attacks, ambushes from pirates vs
UC/freestar, the mysterious captain and more.
The way i did this was simply deleting every silly quest with the CK, and so far, no bugs or glitches that causes
issues, tho depending on your mods, it may or may not be true. Make sure to load this far down.
I havent tested disabling this mod midgame, wich i dont recommend anyways, but if you want the normal encounters
back, get into the unity, disable the mod, then go trough to NG plus, just to be safe.
Installation
Make sure you have a seperate save before installing, just in case (goes without saying).
Simply extract the files into your Starfield folder so that the ESM file is in Data,
You can then either use your favorite mod launcher, or using Starfield’s creation menu to
activate TheSavageMaidenSea.esm file, or like me, add it manualy in plugin.txt
Once done, you will noticed a much more, unforgiving place. Or more like, less anoying.
Q&A
Q: Why make this mod?
A: Simple, vanilla game’s space is extremely friendly, like comicaly so. My mod makes space more
serious.
Q: There are mods that does this already.
A: Some of those mods are either not covering evrything, or simply are using Real Time Form Patcher.
My mod is more of a permament solution.
Q: Okay so no more unarus jokes?
A: No, and i dont wanna hear another one.
