Crashed your Baldur's Gate 3 save with a Skyrim-grade mod overflow? Larian made a video just for you

Baldur's Gate 3 now has official mod support, prompting players to download 50 million total mods and 10,000 that change Withers' name to Bone Daddy. But just in case you've smashed your Baldur's Gate 3 save with enough mods to make a seasoned Skyrim player blush, then developer Larian Studios made the perfect video for you.

"We've been hearing from a lot of you about how you're delving into the wide and wonderful world of modding now," the video explains. "Maybe you're thinking to yourself, 'How does this magic work? What's the difference between PC and console mods?' Or perhaps, 'How do I get that one character's fantastic hair?'"

If all else fails, you can also contact Larian Studio's support team, which thankfully hires actual humans to help, rather than a robot voice. 

"The more mods you load up, the longer it's going to take your game to start," the video continues. "This is especially true on consoles [since] mods use memory and each platform handles memory differently." Larian also highlights a few key differences between modding on PC and console. "For example, once you've started a campaign with mods on
