First time player with Ziggy's Mod
I just purchased Far Cry 3 and want to load it up, but I generally prefer to use community mods to ramp up difficulty and otherwise improve on vanilla versions of games. I don't think I've ever put more than a few hours into vanilla Skyrim, Oblivion, Morrowind, Stalker SoC (used AMK mod with that back in the day), and other titles.
I like my games difficult and challenging, and when searching for top mods for Far Cry 3 Ziggy's stood out on top. Even having not played Vanilla FC3 I've read the reviews and things that people complain about, and the changes he makes comparing to reviews and my usual playstyle seem to be right up my alley. I am thinking of starting up with the "normal" version of the mod (not hardcore mode as that may be a bit much for a first time), and was looking for advice. Are there certain things that I am expected to know since the assumption with these kinds of mods are that you played vanilla and now want a real challenge? An example, I notice. that the intro sequence is disabled so I'll miss the first tutorial. Is there a way to enable the tutorial?
Also, are there any other must-have mods that play nice with Ziggy's?
Looking forward to hearing feedback - FC3 looks like a great game and excited to play!
