Skyrim Stress and Fear - A Dynamic Sanity System

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim now has a cool dynamic sanity system


Modder ‘JaySerpa’ has released an amazing new mod for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition that adds a dynamic sanity system to it. This is a must for everyone who wants to replay this classic TES game. So, let’s take a closer look at it.

The “Stress and Fear – A Dynamic Sanity System” Mod for Skyrim lets your character feel stressed and scared based on what you do in fights. The modder says this will make cool stories and different adventures in your game. So, you should definitely give it a try.

Going into more details, when you get hit in a fight, you’ll feel more stressed out. And, if enough stress accumulates, it will reduce your stamina and magicka. But you reduce your stress by doing things like drinking, eating, sleeping in a safe spot, petting dogs, playing music, or fishing.

Now if you get hurt badly by a certain type of enemy, you might develop a phobia. But here’s the cool part: you can overcome that fear by fighting and winning against that enemy type. It might take a few tries, though, as the system is random based. Not only that but once you conquer your fear, you’ll be better at fighting that enemy, and you won’t be scared of them anymore.

In short, this is an amazing mod that can enhance your combat in Skyrim. So, go ahead and download it from this link.
