The most important change Requiem introduces is to stop the scaling the enemies in Skyrim. It changes many aspects of the game, making Skyrim much more lore-friendly, immersive and realistic. If having too many mods is a concern, then Requiem is an excellent choice for players who want to start small and expand from there. Vampire characters will need to drink regularly, werewolves get more energy from raw meats and cannibals must consume food from bodies or raw meat specifically. Moreover, this mod also takes into account vampirism, lycanthropy and cannibalism, which are all three parts of Skyrim’s lore.
The mod makes eating, sleeping and drinking a necessity in Skyrim, which players will now have to take into account. There are many great mods that introduce basic needs in Skyrim, and Vitality Mode is just one of them worth mentioning. It also ensures players can’t escape the harshness of other survival mods by just skipping any travel time. This makes fast travel a more strategic choice and forces players to consider when to use it and when to not use it. The amount depends entirely on the distance traveled. The Fast Travel Costs mod tweaks fast travel so that every time a player uses it, they lose a bit of gold.
