Baldur’s Gate 3 Modder Working on Real-Time Combat Mod

Since the release of the official modding toolkit for Baldur's Gate 3, modders have been pushing the boundaries of what they can create for the hit game made by Larian Studios. Not only do they have access to the official modding toolkit, but it didn't take people long to access the developer mode of the toolkit, which allows people to make new cutscenes, new maps, and much more.

The modder has mentioned that this mod for Baldur's Gate 3 is still very much a rough draft, as they haven't yet added a pause ability so that you can give your party commands before the chaos ensues. It's set to resemble the combat system from the original Baldur's Gate games. They have also told people in the comments on their video not to try playing the campaign with the mod how it currently is. "I don't think it plays nice with dialogue yet (i.e. you will get butchered in real time while the dialogue is happening)," says tinybike in a comment on the video. They have also said that pausing should be pretty
