Arduous Hardships
Welcome to the mod pack with the most effort put into one ever: Arduous Hardships! This mod pack completely alters the progression and experience of Lethal Company by changing every major factor of all eleven vanilla game moons, as well as six included modded moons. Each moon has a brand new gimmick and challenge to provide with their contents reconfigured, with a majority having less of a focus on variety of spawns, and instead focusing on making your experience completely shifted and unique from any other mod pack! Highly recommended to know how to use melee weapons towards the end-game state.
Additional Contents
- Two brand new modded monsters:
- One attempting to be a new primary star of the main cast, whom cannot directly attack you themselves ever, but provides nasty support, and difficult new combinations to survive.
- One that, for the most part, keeps themself secluded, but once does spawn, will take a whopping ten power level; for a good reason. Make sure to take care of your new, second body, if they catch you, or take the challenge of defeating them for an additional reward!
- A new residental style interior that matches vanilla's vibes fairly closely, only feeling off in few parts.
- A fully configured list of skins for each vanilla game monster that appears on moons, each moon having its own unique possible variations for every single spawn that can happen. Each spawn has 3-5 possible skins that can be applied, with each having their own rarities.
- Several new custom data chips to discover and read, all hand written by me, with four expanding on Sigurd's story. Experimentation has a data chip at main entrance that explains several important things in more detail that aren't mentioned in this README, as well as resay all you've been reading for those who didn't read from here.
- Four additional secret moons that can be discovered through reading some of those new hidden custom logs!
- Buffs to several store items, with a large buff being given to the Zap Gun, the belt bag, and the Company Cruiser in particular.
- Lots of brand new scrap items that mostly keep the vanilla game's tone, a couple of which can also provide physical harm to you.
- Tons of additional cosmetic/visual changes, such as additional Mineshaft cavern types, a non-harmful storm happening on Gordion, March always has rain that does not spawn additional quicksand, etc.
- Does not contain any meme sounds, emotes, asset changes, or meme suits; basically nothing overly jokey or immersion breaking. This is an attempt at a genuine, high effort, respectable mod pack. Do not play if you only seek humorous brain stimulation, and do not take Lethal Company at least some-what seriously.
DISCLAIMERS
- The mods "YesFox" and "LevelMusicLib" are not in this mod pack for a reason, and will be automatically unloadable via the mod "DiFFoZTweaks" if installed as the missing "dependency" of the mods they're marked as dependencies for. Not ALL dependencies are essential ones.
- This mod pack is NOT attempting to take away from the original designs of the modded moons used. All modded moons chosen are ones I have a lot of respect for, and enjoy in their default state. I highly encourage you play them in their default state also, and do not use my mod pack's configurations for your judgements of them by themselves.
