    That’s cool, but I hope it doesn’t auto update on my PS5, because I’m still on Act 2 and took a break. Worried this will break my mods again and I’ll have to start over. I think I’m on my third unfinished run at this point.

        Thanks, I did that and I hope it works. PS5 often updates games even if you have updates turned off. Not sure if that happens with BG3 but I’ll soon find out I guess.

        yes. i use a mod that adds extra bags for arrows, potions, explosives, books, and the shit you pick up goes there automagically.

        Not to develop mods, but the PS5 version of the game (and Xbox) supports some mods available from the mod manager that you can also find on PC. I think the console versions of mods require an approval process to make sure they work.

      Oh shit good call, I’m in the same boat. I have like 100 hours and I’m still at the end of Act 1. Had to take a break, but it’s a hard game to come back to after a while.

        How can you have that much time without having finished act 1? Is it from multiple saves? You can totally clean out everything there is to do in act 1 in about a third of that time.

          Some save scumming. A couple of false starts. Once or twice where I played a few hours before realizing that I fucked up several hours prior.

          Yes, I know this is not how the game is meant to be played. No, I do not care.

    Man Ioved BG3 but I’m hard pressed to play again. First run was resist Dark Urge. Is there any other storyline to follow that’s worth another ton of hours?

      Honestly, all of the origins storylines are very much worth playing as well. Actually playing as the character adds a lot of depth to the quest lines.

        Correct, just trying to get a path forward instead of kind of stumbling around. I usually fall into the same routine if you will during runs. Guess I could embrace Dark Urge?.

      Dude there’s story line for several playthroughs. Different races, actions, party etc all change the game dialog.

      I have over a thousand hours in BG3 and i still find new stuff sometimes. Far less often now but still. You’ll find plenty of new story in a second or N+1 run.

          It’s a pre-written balanced set of classes to try out, it’s not a requirement to play d&d and you can also just homebrew your own stuff. I don’t see how shouting at the sky about an optional purchaseable module helps

                Eh, I’d allow it; it’s tangentially related and a complaint about capitalism. Win-win.
