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.

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.

You can turn auto updates off

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

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.

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.
