⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing without checking requirements
👍 Pros
- Huge community trust with 2,609 endorsements and over 200k downloads.
- Brings back the classic look from the original trilogy with high-res textures.
- Recently updated (Nov 2024) so likely compatible with current game patches.
👎 Cons
- No install instructions provided by the author—you'll need to figure out manual installation or use a mod manager.
- Only covers human and asari faces; other races like turians or salarians are untouched.
- Purely cosmetic—if you're looking for gameplay changes, this isn't it.
