Paywalled VR Mod Sparks Clash as CD Projekt Red Takes Takedown
TL;DR Summary
A paywalled Cyberpunk 2077 VR mod by Luke Ross (R.E.A.L. VR) drew a DMCA takedown from CD Projekt Red. Ross doubled down by releasing a VR mod for Baldur’s Gate 3 using the same paywall approach and criticized what he calls publishers’ 'corporate logic' that favors monetization of developers’ work while demanding free contributions from modders, prompting backlash from the community and a broader debate on paid mods.
