Baldur's Gate 3 Devs Urge Players to Cease Mod Support Threats

Michael Douse, the director of publishing at Larian Studios, has made a public plea to fans of Baldur's Gate 3 to stop sending threats regarding the game's mod support. Though Larian Studios is actively working on mod support for the game, which has seen rapid growth from two million to ten million players, the company has faced toxic behavior from disgruntled players. Douse emphasized that threats and toxicity harm the community and the conversation around the game's development. While the timeline for mod support rollout and cross-play for consoles remains unconfirmed, Larian is aiming to maintain an open dialogue with players. However, Douse cautioned that continued aggressive behavior could force the studio to distance itself from these community interactions.
