And here is the trailer that was also worked on while making the tutorial. Pretty late though.
About 5 months back, Fromsoftserve and I had announced a new collaborative mod called Bearer of the Curse mod, where I would work on my own enhanced version of DS2 while Fromsoftserve assisted on dynamic shadow lighting. My enhancements would consist of clutter/filling up the world of DS2, adding in personized modern mechanics, change lighting, and do some minor enemy placements based on original DS2, while also making creative decisions to mix up more placements in the game.
Development had been mostly going well. The mod is currently 80-90% completed with beta testing currently taking place. However the mod has come to a near halt after my father coming down terminally ill. Over the past 2 to 3 months my father has been going in and out of the hospital with episodes of near end stage liver cirrhosis/liver disease. Stated by the doctors that his lifespan could up to weeks or months of unknown life expectancy. Currently I am spending more time tending to his care and needs, which makes it a lot harder to spend my free time working on mods.
That being said if you enjoy my mod, and ever want to consider supporting me, direct donations can be found Here. Even if its just a little bit, it would help me considerably in my current difficult times. I try my best to put out as much content as I can for the game I very love. But again donations are very much appreciated, its not required, its just there if you want to support me.
Thank you very much for your time for reading this message and I hope you all have a pleasant day.
Edit: As of December 19th 2024, my father unfortunately passed away. Seeker of Fire and Bearer of the Curse mod will no longer receive support and will halt all activity from 2025 and onward. I have decided that it's best to move on from modding and pursue something different instead of lingering onto modding. It's been a great 4 years since I released my first mod on the Nexus, and I've been so thankful for all of your kind words and encouragement over the years. I hope that the next generation of DS2 modders will accomplish things far greater than I have and will make the ultimate masterpiece of a mod.
Can i install Seeker of Fire and these two mods as well?

I just read that SoF also has some visual changes so I'm sure it probably would not be compatible. But just in case i was wondering if that would still work. As for the UI, my guess is that i can just overwrite the parts of the SoF mod. Though it would perhaps break the icons of Items that are new?
i only have one question, where is the hex "dark greatsword"? in the article says "Eleum Loyce" but i already search three times and don´t see it :(
Everything else has been great so far, though I don't like how the Majula lady chills at the bonfire while being uninteractable while I have to go back to Majula to level up. 👍
But with this mod, I felt involved in the game again!
I can just see the changes and think, "Yeah, this feels so right. Why did Fromsoftware do it all wrong originally?".
The new progression is crazy. I mean, everything makes sense now! For example: "So... Giants? Who's that?" and then 30 minutes later when you get the Ashen Mist Heart, "Oooh, so that's what happened. Yeah, that's really sad. I would never feel sorry for the guys if I found out about the giants thing 50 hours after I started the game."
But The Gutter is bruh. There's no way a new player will ever guess which way to go to fight the Rotten and which way leads to the DLC area. And I AM the new player! If someone will ever return to continue the work on this mod, I'd say that It would be nice to have some additional guidance or more freedom in roaming during the gutter area. Because it feels like you're going circles over and over.
Took me 1,5 hrs to collect all of the items and to defeat all of the phantoms without dying of poisoning... The moment when you get to the most hidden item and get 3 flame butterflies almost turned me hollow IRL...
But most parts of the mod are fire!
I never would have said this before, but now I kinda love DS2 in a way I never loved the other parts. All in all, one of the greatest fanmade retakes ever. If not the best, then certainly one of the best.
