The Baldur's Gate 3-themed Stardew Valley mod that Larian boss Swen Vincke called "amazing" gets DMCA'd by D&D publisher Wizards of the Coast
Clearly, Baldur's Village was too well-loved for the IP owner to let peopl𓆉e enjoy it

Baldur's Village is a massive, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Baldur's Gate 3-themed mod for 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Stardew Valley that's so impressive it's ev😼en gotten Larian boss Swen 😼Vincke's seal of approval. Naturally, ♔all this goodwill has gotten D&D publisher Wizards of the Coast slinging DMCA takedown notices at the mod.
Yes, if you head over to the for Bal𓄧dur's Village, you'll find that it's been "under moderation review" since March 29. A Nexus Mods rep confirmed to our friends at that this is, indeed, the result of a DMCA takedown notice from Wizards of the Coast. "Hopefully, this is an oversight from WotC, who often use external agencies to hunt down violating content, and they will revert their decision," the rep said. "Fingers crossed for Baldur's Village."
Baldur's Village was created by modder Xun, and adds a bigꦯ map north of Pelican Town with an array of new locations themed after Baldur's Gate 3. Residents of the village include the likes of Shadowheart and Astarion, the latter being "a fully romanceable character with his own questline." The first release of the mod landed earlier in March, with further development and updates still underway ahead of this takedown.
Wizards of the Coast, a subsidiary of Hasbro, hasn't exactly been endearing itself to fans of its products over the past few years. The most notable example is probably the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:D&D OGL controversy, which former 5E lead designer Mike Mearls says may have rendered the venerable tabletop game permanently🍸 "uncool.🐈" Certainly, it's less than endearing fo🎀r the publisher of a game all about telling your own stories to keep admonishing fans "no, not like that."
