There is no #Starfield like #Scarfield

Brand new game to Level 200 in one sitting, by ditching Constellation and focusing only on prepping for the #Terrormorph #RedMile challenge. It’s gotten far more intense in v1.20 too.

There’s a new version of #Scarfield! Don’t know why #NexusMods only told me about it today, when it was uploaded on October 25th, but strangely great timing

It doesn’t include #ShatteredSpace support, but that’s fine by me. I’m gonna bail on Constellation and make a beeline for the #OceansOfBlood #Terrormorph #RedMile challenge anyway.

It took some non-trivial fiddling (all morning!) BUTTTTT (drumroll please)

I got #Scarfield #OceansOfBlood working on the latest #Starfield! No more tacky and pathetic #RedMileMaulers or better-by-far #BloodyMaulers as in the main Scarfield release (that are as vicious and cunning as one has a right to expect of space-wolves). But an all #Terrormorph #RedMile run! And the strategic combat difficulty system started working correctly again too!

Sadly the obnoxious levelling-up fanfare kept clobbering the glorious #PopcornTime combat score. God damn. I gained 58 levels in a single run.

But otherwise, it was fan-fucking-tastic. What #TheRedMile should’ve always been from the beginning.

Round Two on the #Scarfield #RedMile

Still no #Terrormorph but my final kill count was 120 Bloody Maulers.

Yessss I admit I went back for second, third, and then fourth helpings. Scarfield’s Bloody Maulers are much more formidable foes than #VanillaStarfield’s Red Mile Mauler, but that only serves to increase the bloodlust. I didn’t want to finish the run until I was certain I’d hunted down every last one of them.

The total number, pack size, and downright viciousness of the Bloody Maulers seems to increase each run, too. So hell. I won’t get bored with the Red Mile in THIS playthrough.

Okay, so the #Scarfield #RedMile is certainly better than #VanillaStarfield—by far the most fun I’ve ever had on a run, even that one hilarious time I dragged Sarah out

BUT I WAS GIVEN TO UNDERSTAND THERE’D BE A BLOODY TERRORMORPH, one worthy of the name

“Thou art crunchy and go well with ketchup”.

May I present to you #Scarfield — a comprehensive difficulty overhaul for #Starfield that uses #ImprovedCombatAI, eliminates the obnoxious bullet-sponges, and most amusingly gets MORE difficult as you dial the difficulty game settings down from (the default) Very Hard such that Easy and Very Easy may not even be humanly achievable. The whole package is a non-stop #KobayashiMaru challenge. 🥰

Fair warning: this overhaul touches nearly everything, and has very specific installation, update, and uninstallation instructions. Getting naked between updates or prior to mid-game installation is non-optional. Getting naked for new players is completely optional but recommended. No I am not kidding. See the sticky post for an explanation of stat changes on equipped apparel borking save files. And consider body mesh, morph, and texture replacers to remove the unsightly and offensive Bethesda nevernude body-shaming. To uninstall, delete the mod and create a new character. No, it cannot be removed from existing saves.

And most importantly, it features #Terrormorphs on the #RedMile like there always should have been! FINALLY!

(Y’know. “Finally!” for me. As in “I wish I’d been using this mod the whole damn time” because it’s been around since September 2023 and I just didn’t know any better.)

Huh. D.E.R.E.K. did surprisingly well running #TheRedMile with us. Actually helpful and hilarious in combat.

(Love that the mod dev is a huge Red Dwarf fan too)

Second run of #TheRedMile in Universe Eleven complete, Peashooter Mk.4 FTW!

Honestly? It went surprisingly well considering it takes an average of three magazines to put down a single Mauler with an Advanced Razorback and its painfully slow firing rate, irregardless of a Mauler’s level. Not exaggerating in the slightest: reloading is faster than the time between rounds of the same magazine. Still, I burned through almost 400 7.5mm rounds in this run, and I have pretty good trigger discipline. While I didn’t go hunting for any scattered packs of Maulers like I usually do, and had to let a few get away, I still put down an awful lot of them with such an ill-suited sidearm bee-lining from point A to point B and back again.

Phew. This moment is so breathtakingly perfect, all my bloodlust just drifted away. How the hell do I run #TheRedMile with nothing but a revolver WITHOUT ANY bloodlust??

Meh. I’m sure it’ll come back to me.

“Twiddling my thumbs until the new update goes live tonight” looks like running #TheRedMile over and over again with a variety of custom revolvers and pistols, keeping in mind that at Level 211 I still haven’t bothered to learn the Pistols skill, so I’m at an extra disadvantage.

Up first and featured below, for my 2nd run in Universe Eleven, is Peashooter Mk.4—my standard recipe for a heavily, but not quite fully, modded short-barrelled Assassin’s Advanced Razorback. It features the highest stopping power of any ballistic pistol available, but the smallest magazine size, meaning constant interrupted reloads by Maulers and their obnoxious explosive-hairball attack.

If this doesn’t make for a real challenge I don’t know what will.

What do you mean, we’ve never run #TheRedMile together before??

Goddamn Universe Nine.

That does it. I’m busting out Gutshot Mk.4 for our Nth inaugural run… ‘cause someone or something’s gotta pay for this massive oversight and it sure as hell ain’t gonna be me.
