Realms Restored 2.0 — Baldur's Gate 3

Screenshots arrived

Speaking of the Sharran rework, I would love to see one of the more armored followers wear the Shar Headwear (ARM_Shar_Crown_A). The helmet gives Teutonic Knight vibes and I would love to see a Sharran knight to fight.



Nevertheless, the team's reworks for the Sharrans, the Grove, the Bitch Queen Temple, etc. are impressive and awesome. I would love to request a rework of the Flaming Fist. Armor in the game looks atrociously bad and needs dignification. Unfortunately, this applies to this armor worn by the Flaming Fists, so instead of intimidating mercenaries, all I see is a bunch of dorks outfitted in oversized clothing. I would love to see a more intimidating, utilitarian, yet also realistically medieval rework of the Fists so I know these are folks that you shouldn't mess around.

Here is some concept art for Flaming Fists outside of Baldur's Gate. I am thinking of giving Flaming Fists inside Baldur's Gate a different outfit so I have concept art planned for that. I also provided some UID (UUID if UID is not available) of the vanilla armors and weapons they should wear. Here are the idealized version of the Fists led by the NPC Ulthred, who should in my opinion be a Gauntlet to signify he's a leader of the squad.

Sir, you are cordially invited to take the AQ test. And I mean this in praise.

I think a cool addition in the future would be to touch up the goblins a bit. Several of them have "normal", "civilised" hairstyles. I think it would be cool if they wore only the seemingly goblin-exclusive ones already ingame, or generally some that are more fitting.

[Makirige]

You already have Halsin made specifically for that purpose in the main game!

Halsin is gross. Should swap his stupid ass into a regular elf.
But even then, it can't fix horrible writing.

replace him with halrige @loregamer

Yes, please. (this is not a plea, this is an order.)

ELF_MS_NKD_Body yes?

Can't believe they got it wrong AGAIN, 20-some years later.
Druids cannot wear metal armor! It does not matter if you are dual-classed.

Multi-class druids must abide by the weapon, shield, and armor restrictions of their branches.

Isobel's Aestetics version is pretty nice. I also like this version of her:


This armor kinda fit for a rogue instead of a cleric but her face is so cute.

[Doria_rhea]

her face is so cute.

Eyebrows look way too massive.

[Silver]

Same energy.

[SniperChris]

Why did you make Asharak so much cooler looking?

I don't object, I'm just curious why this Tiefling in particular was made to look badass.

Because I thought that a badass Male Strong tiefling who's teaching lil kids how to fight and defend themselves would look cool and wholesome at the same time.
Asharak's voice supports a character who's more buff as well, so it all clicked together.

just a reminder that Hijimare has a version with that same face but with default Selune outfit and white hair

Is there a patch 7 version of this mod? I ran into the issue of needing to update the mod manager to get the mods to show up. But when I did, all my mods stopped working due to the mod manager being updated to patch 8 while running a patch 7 game. I pancaked a bit at first, but I managed to find a download for BG3 mod manager patch 7 at git hub. Thank goodness everything is working again, but I don't think I can use this file on patch 7. I don't know if there even is a patch 7 version, but if there is, I'd love to get it.

You might run into some weirdness in Character Creator. I would install everything after that, but it might work fine

Lol. Well i actually already tried it. But sadly it didn't work. I couldn't get mod manager to recognize the mods as mods without updating mod manager, which broke all my mods. Before updating mod manager, I kept getting a "no .pak file found in mod pak" or something like that.

[loregamer]

Sorry man

[Artex]

Sorry man

I could maybe try to add it in manually instead of using bg3 mod manager. Should i try that?

Any ETA on the De-girlboss mod? After a few hours in Act 3, the cringe of every single captain, lieutenant, important bridge guard, mafia/pirate bosses etc being women got exhausting, to the point that when one NPC mentioned an important NPC I needed to talk with I could clearly guess if they were going to be a woman.It got so bad, I took a break from the game and I still haven't got back to finish it.

If we exclude the main cast of secondary characters (Thorm, Gortash, Raphael...) and focus just on regular NPCs, this game is clearly misandrist, putting all females in positions of power and leaving men just as brainless, lineless grunts. This decision is especially idiotic and cringeworthy since, in real life, men would usually rank into positions of power where high risk is involved more than women because they are more incentivised by the benefits these positions can bring (more mates, resources) while females tend to avoid dangerous jobs and positions.

My first cringe were the 3 female Zentharim in the Goblin camp like these 3 bitches wouldn't be raped, killed and eaten the minute the stepped foot into the camp. One thing is if they were powerful mages but they were just rogues. I hope the mod changes them into men, honestly. I have a long list of recommendations if you are interested. And thank you, it must not be easy to revoice all these characters but the game will definitely be much, much better after you release this mod.

So, why do playable drow heads not have that cool red eye glow the ones in Moonrise have?

A year or two maybe. Don't count on that one being quick. Work is ongoing but it's not a matter of just changing some values in code like this one.

I like the concept of this mod cause fuck diversity, inclusion and all that other bullshit, but I also like to goon, so I'm asking for more options (restoring the more slutty dresses, giving tieflings their exotic skin colors back, more NPC restore options and so on). Basically what I'm saying is more mod options and customization of said mod.

How about a mod that helps you quit your porn addiction?

Please tell me all of the OOC swearing will be removed. This is Faerûn, not a slum

How do they swear in Faerun tho? I've never heard. I seem to remember they developed some lingo for Planescape, but I haven't seen much beyond contemporary language in renditions of the Realms. Not that I would remember anyway.

Don't know about Faerun but there's a planar cant for the Planescape setting: https://mimir.net/culture/languages/can ... -one-page/
It would still be better to hear "pike it", "sod", "leatherhead", "berk" than that modern swearing.

Riiight, because asking for more eye candy = Porn. I hope you realize you sound like every other twitter leftist when the topic of attractive female NPCs is brought up.
