witcher 3 mod: game-changing morality and rep system added

A modder has brought a new layer of immersion to "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt" by adding a full morality and reputation system, originally planned but scrapped by CD Projekt Red. The mod, created by Nexus Mods user FreakVIp, introduces a dynamic reputation mechanic, where NPCs respond to Geralt based on his actions. Completing various activities will earn or cost Reputation Points, impacting in-game interactions and the economy. For instance, being respected in a region like Skellige will offer benefits such as better shop deals, whereas a negative reputation in places like Temeria will lead to higher prices and fewer rewards. This mod is powered by REDkit, an official modding tool launched in May 2024, which has inspired numerous creative modifications within the game.

"The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt" is the third installment in the critically acclaimed Witcher series, developed by CD Projekt Red. Originally released in 2015, the game has received numerous awards for its storytelling, game world, and character development. With a major update for next-gen consoles in December 2022, and a modding tool REDkit launched in 2024, the game continues to thrive in the gaming community, paving the way for upcoming projects like "The Witcher 4: Polaris" and a remake of the original game.
