Many areas are just copy pasted.

I have 25+ lockpicks (!) because they are just copy-pasted as loot.

You also get 80 ammo as loot.

All 4 areas of city? You need always 3 keys to get to next area of city.

Found 1 puzzle in bank, need to convert to decimal and some other programmer shit in RL to solve.

Not worth it. I honestly played 5 hours, wanted to like but it is copy-paste of almost everything.

But I want to explain something about this mod:

Many areas are just copy pasted.

Yes, I copy pasted many elements but I did it purposely and not for laziness.
In this mod I wanted to create outdoor areas just like they appear.

I have 25+ lockpicks (!) because they are just copy-pasted as loot.

I must explain this choice. In this mod the total number of lockpicks is perfectly balanced with the total number of locked chests present in all game areas. But I decided to put more lockpicks than chests only in the four Ulqerak town areas because only in these areas chests contain essential keys necessary to progress further in the game. All other chests contain additional items. So it could appear as a casual loot spawning, but it is not.

You also get 80 ammo as loot.

Yes. There are many pellet boxes. I don't like when the party run out of ammo. If we use skillpoints in firearms we should always have the possibility to use firearms, in my opinion. Further in the game there is also the possibility to create pellet boxes and cannon balls.

All 4 areas of city? You need always 3 keys to get to next area of city.

Only in the four areas of Ulqerak town. It is repetitive just like many outdoor areas in many first person rpgs I played in the floppy disks era. The other areas are progressively less repetitive.

Found 1 puzzle in bank, need to convert to decimal and some other programmer shit in RL to solve.

This is perhaps the most difficult and strange puzzle of the whole mod. But it is absolutely optional, not necessary to progress further in the game.

Not worth it. I honestly played 5 hours, wanted to like but it is copy-paste of almost everything.

Thank you anyway for your comments.
I will try to produce a different mod next time.

But I left it as it is because I wanted the area to appear as a real dungeon and so I thought that strange rooms or strange puzzles could be inappropriate from this point of view.

I mean it is always 80 ammo. It is always 5 arrows. It is always 5 darts.

You almost always find lockpick on body. Most of citizens of city were thiefs? Why so many of them carried 1 lockpick?

Why add 4 same areas with "find 3 keys, 1 key per chest" if you can do just 1 such area?

How about... It is magickal prison for mages. And you got here by mistake, you are not high level mage, but just was thrown there for false crime.
So in magickal prison they need some traps to keep mages inside.

Or you start in prison which is connected to old civilization ruins, you break wall in your prison room and enter catacombs with puzzles?
