NPCs are damn too strong.

[Curios]

- Adjust loadouts - again -. Reduce armor and shield values, but leave D17-19 intact as is.

Try doing it by a decent amount this time so you don't have to keep doing it over and over. Make them inconsequential to any interaction, as people are asking.

- Cap loadouts left intact. Where there's enemy caps, you shouldn't be unless you expect a fight.

It's one thing to expect a fight, another to have that fight interrupted and made pointless by cap NPCs.

Dan hit the nail on the head.
Stop going "Oh, this will probably be what people want". The customer/consumer/audience is always right, you need to shape the mod around that.

lol, devs makes the game they want, not the game you want.
