      Well it’s not like a Skyrim (obviously), but I mean that there isn’t big changes in textures or content for example.

      There is some extremely useful mods though. I’m thinking quality of life stuff and appearance choices mostly. The latter was a bit buggy with the updates for me, but i think it got better now.

      I think the amount of downloads comes from how necessary these are to most fans, rather than the quantity and quality of big mods.

      (Although some small mods like hairstyle are quite high quality to be fair)

      P.S. One pretty big exception is 5e spells that do add a lot of much wanted content

        Could you elaborate on why most fans consider some mods necessary. Ive put over 300h into this game and did not feel like mods would have enriched the experience once

          Most mods arent necessary, but there are mods that allow you to play with spells that arent in the base game, level up past 12, and add races that arent in base. Those are the ones I have

          Most mods add quality of life things.

          If you check those out, I can guarantee you you will find some where you wonder why they aren’t in the base game.

          It’s almost a year since I played BG3 but back then I remember some bugfix mods were essential (BG3 had a LOT of bugs/improperly working things back then), and then the really big one for me was the camera mod, Native Camera Tweaks. That one alone has over a million downloads and fixes a lot of issues I had.
