Mods similar to Royalty?
I paid full price and gifted it to two of my friends. Paying 20$ for a DLC that is a reskinned collection of mods is not what I consider ethical supporting, but I don't want to enter that discussion.

Anywho, I'm particularly interested in the quests system and factions. Would like to know what mods provide a similar experience.

Thanks!

Well, the quest system is part of the free 1.1 update. So you already have that.

I'm not aware of any mods that do what Royalty does.

RoM for a variant of the psycasts (yo can use the similar Star Wars The Force mod for that if you want a more sci-fi experience).

EDIT: the previes says RoM being 1.0 but I can vouch for it being 1.1 compatible

You don't want to enter into that discussion but have no problem slandering the dev by accusing him of re-skinning mods?

Exactly; that's what's known as a "mealymouthed" comment.

Notably, there's supposed to be so many mods that do everything Royalty does, but no, there actually aren't (according to the mod makers themselves, mind you) nor can you be sure content-heavy mods will "play nice" with each other. While I don't care to buy Royalty, myself – I run only 7 mods, as-is, including Hugslib and Harmony – the hysteria and rancor over Royalty gets pretty old. Don't like it? Don't buy it and save us the pickle-juice-soaked tirade, please!

Anyone making the comment that the DLC is reskinned mods probably doesn't use many mods and is just going off vague knowledge of what mods are out there. The DLC adds 'magic', sure. but it adds a handful of other things that fundamentally change your approach to building your colony due to handling of royal pawns, building entirely unnecessary structures that you need to then defend, new quests, new events, and so on.

Mods may have scratched the surface of these things, but the DLC made more use of everything while including it in a single package that can be further modified.

Exactly so. And the Royalty DLC also adds a *stable* base for new mods, point of fact.

I completely understand not liking/wanting the Royalty DLC; as I mentioned above, I don't care for it either. Complaining about its existence, however, is beyond foolish -.-' .
