‘Moody cat journey recreation’ ought to have been a style for many years already, however someway Stray’s housecat protagonist feels novel, and gamers already need extra cat choices. Modders have answered that decision, turning Stray’s orange tabby into all types of other cats: black cats, grey cats, calico cats, lasagna cats. Sure, now you can play Stray as Garfield.
Modder Chris Rubino is answerable for placing the Jim Davis cartoon cat into Stray with the “Garfield – Cartoon Version” mod, which may be downloaded at NexusMods (opens in new tab).
Mod Garfield seems considerably just like the 3D animated film model of Garfield, but it surely’s not an ideal resemblance, and the film model itself wasn’t an incredible tackle Garfield’s traditional cartoon look (two orange spheres with legs and arms). It is sufficient to be recognizable as Garfield, although. A special Garfield mod (opens in new tab) simply places a regular-looking striped orange cat into the sport, which does not lower it for me.
Granted, I am unsure why you’d need to play Stray as a convincing Garfield. He is beloved for each actual and ironic causes, however imagining that your cat protagonist has opinions about Mondays, spiders, and loo scales would most likely deflate Stray’s cyberpunk rigidity a bit.
I legitimately liked Garfield rising up and nonetheless do, and never even satirically. Proof: I personal and not too long ago wore a Garfield sweater (like, a pair days in the past, on a date), and Garfield follows me on Twitter, I assume as a result of the Garfield social media supervisor sensed that at some point I would need to point out it as a approach to set up my Garfield cred. And even I do not need to play Stray as Garfield.
I will be damned if I do not respect Rubino for doing what needed to be executed, although. If a Garfield mod for Stray did not exist, it might be affordable to marvel for those who’d slid right into a parallel dimension the place issues are simply barely totally different. Say, a universe the place Garfield is not web irony royalty and I believed that canine are higher than cats. We must always all be glad about the signal of timeline continuity.
For those who like the concept of modifying Stray’s cat, however not into one which hates Nermal, there are a bunch of regular cat mods for Stray on Nexus (opens in new tab), too.
