Baldur’s Gate 3 mods pay tribute to my other love, Final Fantasy XIV

destructoid.com:

With so many to sample year-to-year, there aren’t many games I stick with on a long-term basis. There are a few exceptions to that sweeping statement, though, and I count both Final Fantasy XIV and Baldur’s Gate 3 as my current ride-or-dies. And as I’m lost venturing further into the weeds of Faerun, I’m still keeping up with my FFXIV dailies. So what happens when we combine both?

It’s a recipe for FFXIV Baldur’s Gate 3 mods. To my delight—and maybe dismay—Larian’s ambitious RPG charmed others like me, rolling two of my favorites into one. It’s not the biggest scene in the realm of fancy fan-made tweaks, but you’re damn right “FFXIV” was the first thing I furiously typed into Nexus Mods’ BG3 directory.

The FFXIV Scion tattoo for BG3 is from Winged Asarath on Nexus Mods. The mark is in the same spot as other Sharlayan scholars’, so it’s practically canon my Tav met the legendary Louisoix Leveilleur. If you tried to pass off the Circle of Knowing as a Baldur’s Gate thing, I’d absolutely believe it.

Anyway, I jokingly told a friend I wanted to combine the two after browsing hair mods, and now we’re here. The Archon marking is probably the most tasteful thing about my darling Yeva—that’s my Tav. Otherwise, her clothes are often mismatched, and she’s always covered in blood.

It’s not the most obvious change, but that’s mostly how I prefer to mod games. I’ve dropped it on another Tav with shorter hair, too. And while it certainly shows better there, I know it’s on Yeva; that’s what’s important. It’s a little wink-and-nod tribute to my favorite game, but not so bold that it feels out of place.
