Controversial Baldur's Gate 3 Mod Sparks Outrage and Removal
A homophobic mod for the popular role-playing game Baldur's Gate 3, which removed all LGBTQ+ references, was swiftly shut down by gamers and moderators. The mod, called "ser Aylin," made adjustments such as changing a lesbian character to male and removing character creation tools. It also removed people of color from the game. The mod was part of a broader "No Alphabets" mod pack that aimed to maintain a "medieval status quo." The mod was quickly removed from NexusMods, but may still be hosted on far-right platforms. NexusMods moderators stated that the mod violated their community guidelines and affirmed their commitment to inclusivity and diversity.
