There is a mod site that has a bunch of BG3 mods which make the game better

[aweigh]

It's called https://modhq.org/

Lots of good mods there that let you make the game as it should've been.

Except nobody's mad the alternatives exist. People are sick and tired of those websites' users coming here and spamming links to those websites, which I think is normal.

Sharing links to websites with mods for the game in question? What's normal about being mad over something so trivial?

I think it's more the fact they get repeated ad nauseum than the general sharing. Imagine seeing the same hair mod get posted over and over again

What do you mean?

You guys don't enjoy the threads like "Where can I download X mod that isn't on nexus? I promise I don't know of any UwU xD" (there's several links in their posting history).

Which leads into a circle jerk of the same 2/3 links, from the same handful of people.

If they start describing them to me on an unrelated video game forum, sure.

Then whats the problem? OP gave alternate mod site, that hosts mods for this game. So your analogy is a ridiculous.

you made the analogy here....bbster

I'm gonna go out on a limb and assume by 'way better' you're talking from a subjective point of view.

And the fact that you're pushing away from nexus inclines me to believe it's because nexus wouldn't host them.

You really gonna be that transparent? I'm all for freedom of expression but "Wowee zowie this hot new mod site makes the game so much better" when it's just stuff like 'Make Aylin a man' is talking out your ass.

Stop being a mouthpiece for your ideologies.

Oh yeah, wasn't paying attention but that was actually the person who randomly brought up kink shaming and then called it a bad analogy, lol

You see, an important military official will download a BG3 mod (specifically) with malware made by some individual who will then launch the nukes and cause ww3 to officially start

This should have been the main menu theme of bg3 considering those definitely-going-to-happen circumstances

He's gonna download a Sazza romance mod and decide he doesn't want to be in a world without gobussy

I don't know whether to commend them for how much effort they put into all of this or to pity them over how bad the political brainwashing got them.

It appears most of them were unable to enjoy the game over things that most people wouldn't even bat an eye over, like "Fist Silena at the South Span Checkpoint to Wyrm's Crossing has vitiligo" or "mention of his husband/her wife".

It's kind of distressing that some people are this extreme towards inclusion this light, but then again, that's precisely why we need it.

...have no way of knowing that Mods break BG3 with regularity such that all progress is lost and the game must be reinstalled.

This is not factually true. What is factually true is that game updates breaks mods with regularity.

What is also not factually true is that mods frequently break or corrupt saved games. My wife and I use 55 mods in our co-op game, and I use 80 in my personal game, and have never once experienced game corruption due to a mod... but then we are diligent, not lazy, and check for mod updates (a) after every single game patch and (b) before every play session. Oh, and we carefully avoid mods that are not being maintained or have a significant history of issues or conflicts with other mods.

Larian Studios does not currently support Modding nor do they take Modding into account when updating the game.

This is an incomplete truth: while Larian doesn't publicly "support" modding, they are fully aware of and tolerate it, to the point of recording every single mod being used in the saved game (meta.lsx) and warning the player of potential issues if one of those recorded is later removed.

That isn't full absence of support, even if their motive is to cover their own asses (support-wise).

As others have said, your post reeks of (self-)promotion. I've been modding games for over 40 years - starting with BOARD games - and I've never heard of this site. You say it hosts "a bunch" of BG3 mods, yet NexusMods.com alone has orders of magnitude more, as well as a mod manager tailor-made to work with the site and the mods it hosts. I also can't help wondering if some or all of those mods are copied from other sites without permission. I know that I can trust NexusMods.com (at least as far as I can spit), but a site like the one you promote I cannot.

None of those mods change Vitiligo.
One person had a problem with it, but even then the modders didn't change it. Bad argument lol.

Indeed mods are for people who wish to enjoy the game more in different ways, that's er, the point. To optionally customise their OWN entertainment.

The political brainwashing seems to be making a big deal out of that, writing media articles and calling them names (and even libelling innocent people). I don't currently see any of those people petitioning Larian to change the base game or going out and conducting actions in real life because of those things, only downloading a mod so they enjoy the game more. We can approve or disapprove of that of course but it doesn't matter, if they enjoy THEIR game more because of those mods, then good for them! You can also install mods that YOU enjoy (or play the base game as it is) and good for you!
