Vanilla Storytellers Expanded is a brand new mod series featuring standalone storytellers, bringing new, unique mechanics to the game.
“Oskar Obnoxious holds no regard for ongoing stories. Things will turn on their heads countless times before a colony goes down in flames. Frequently released Patch notes can alter the values of the game, changing almost anything in the game completely by a random number.”
Oskar Obnoxious comes with the following traits:
Patch Notes
This storyteller releases patch notes every few days, changing the game drastically. Patch notes change random values of random Defs into random numbers. This can result in items becoming incredibly unbalanced, overpowered or worthless.
Hard Difficulty
This storyteller has hard difficulty. It will favour bad events, and any events that happen are tailored to your colony based on its wealth, past events, amount of colonists and other factors.
Random Events
This storyteller will fire random events without any regard for how your colony is doing. Whilst the events still scale with wealth, their type - good, neutral, bad - is completely random, just like with Randy.
We at Vanilla Expanded encourage streamers to try and survive as long as possible under the rule of Oskar Obnoxious!
