Enter “Hot Diggity – Skills Perks – Redux” by modder FishFiend. Building on the work they did on the original Hot Diggity a few years ago, this 2.0 version has the same goal – to make Fallout 4’s characters more diverse so that it’s more fun to play for players 50 or 50 years old . One thousandth, time.
To that end, Hot Diggity is giving the game a skill system that’s more like what’s in the series before Fallout 4, with the focus on making it easier to create a character that feels unique, ensuring you’re less likely to just pick the same one every time some “basic benefits”. In addition to adding a ton of new “niche perks” to incentivize more diverse character builds, it improves on many of the vanilla perks and brings back a trait system similar to that found in classic Fallout and New Vegas.
Specific to this new version, FishFiend says the mod has been “rebuilt from the ground up to provide a better player experience and better compatibility.” They’ve also added 50 new perks – including one called “frog legs,” which look like they allow you to bounce around the map like a designated acrobatic Oblivion player – and improved upon more of the vanilla perks , and gives you a bunch of extra traits and skills you can use.
While FishFiend admits they released the mod a little earlier than planned – likely to give people a chance to try it out before Fallout 4’s next-gen update might cause it and its dependencies to need to be updated – they’ve already deployed these once Update, they seem to have a lot of plans for what they want to do with it. Until then, if you choose to stop updating your version of Fallout 4 as soon as the next-gen update is released, you may be able to continue using it, as some players have done.
