Stories like this happen every few years.

Quoting: ElectricPrismI guess I won't have to manually install Baldurs Gate 3 mods. Great. Though I think we are done with the game until they stabalize it and get their updates out of the way. 4 playthroughs in enough.

You could use Lamp for BG3 mods. Mentioned in another post above, but you can get it here https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/2169
