MODERATORS
Maybe it's like
"Damn you Larian! If I can mod the game, I'll never stop playing and my life will fall to pieces! You bastards!"
Having 40 mods made this game playable to me. Vanilla was broken and boring. Needs the spice that is mods.
I honestly don't see how. Could you give some examples of what made it broken? Because aside from a better inventory management system being nice, I hadn't encountered anything that made me think "this game is unplayable in vanilla!"
A few examples I recall. Shadow heart romance was locked out and bugged I had to use a mod to fix it Switches didn't work in that underwater level. Quest items being able to sold was super dumb.
Broken?
Boring? @Spacehooks@reddthat.com are you talking about Baldur's Gate 3 or Starfield? 🤔
I'll accept boring as a criticism because the game definitely isn't for everyone but I'm questioning what mods could even change that
They almost have to be confused and talking about starfield, since until this news, all "mods coming" had indeed been about starfield.
Base game character development was not fun to me and I ended up downloading tons of feats, clases, races, clothing, and spells that were more practical or matched what I want see and severely increased enjoyability. Also added mod to see what people are going to like what answer.
Certain gameplay items where not fun. For example I had a mod that made jumping movement cost and not an action so I didn't get punished for no reason walking to someone in combat.
Can't recall the rest. feel free to disregard my personal experience. I simply did not enjoy it and I would have hated it withi
