This mod overhauls Stellar Blade’s gameplay to make it faster, smoother, and more responsive, reducing heavy cooldowns and restrictive mechanics while still keeping balance in mind. The result is a more fluid and action-oriented experience that feels natural without turning the game into something unrecognizable.
Almost every core mechanic has been fine-tuned to improve flow. Combat becomes more dynamic, evasive maneuvers feel sharper, and the overall pacing of the game shifts towards immediacy and fun. While it does make the game easier in some respects, it also makes battles more engaging and satisfying.
