In just a few short days, millions of mods have been installed for Baldur's Gate 3.
This week, Baldur's gate 3's patch 7, which brought with it many changes, including new evil endings and new honor mode actions that players should fear, was released. It also included the much-anticipated mod browser in-game for official modding support. Mods created with BG3's toolkit can be managed and downloaded via an in-game web browser. This will allow you to install and manage mods for yourself as well as across a multi-player group.
Eurogamer reported that Swen Vincke, Larian's boss, posted this morning that the mod installs for Baldur's Gate 3 had already reached more than a half-million mods. Scott Reismanis, mod.io's founder and ModDB's founder, chimed in a few hours after saying that "just ticked over three million installs and accelerating."
Vincke said, "Modding is big," in a masterful use of what I consider to be the classic and timeless rhetorical technique known as understatement.
The PC Gamer team was not the only ones who were shocked by the shockingly evil endings of the big patch. Things like giant evil statues and armies of cultists. Also, bespoke twists to each character's origin story.
Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 7 will not be the last patch, despite the fact that both Larian and us have called it the final update.
Larian wrote: "We still have a few patches in store for Baldur's Gate 3 - which will include crossplay and photo modes, along with other fixes and updates." "But eventually, all stories must end.
If you're installing mods that are six terabytes in size, I'm not so sure anything will ever end.
