A Baldur’s Gate 3 fan artist with the deal with XunHe1145 has revealed a deliberate Stardew Valley – Baldur’s Gate 3 crossover mod to be made in collaboration with different artists. Baldur’s Village will characteristic Stardew variations of a few of BG3’s companions in a brand new little city, full with customized artwork and dialogue.
Off the soar, the pixel artwork portraits of Shadowheart and Astarion on show are actual winners—my Stardew-loving different half informs me that a whole lot of customized portrait work for the sport does not fairly seize the allure of Eric Barone’s authentic NPCs, however she actually liked these interpretations of BG3’s companions. They are a bit extra lifelike than the bottom Stardew characters, however nonetheless actually seize the spirit: you can nearly mistake these guys for an official crossover.
The opposite deliberate options of the complete mod embody:
- A brand new, separate map for the titular Baldur’s Village.
- 4 totally different constructing types within the village.
- Astarion, Shadowheart, Gale, and Halsin NPCs with customized portraits for no less than the primary three.
- A full romance/courting questline for Astarion, with the chance open for one thing related with the opposite NPCs
XunHe1145 notes that Baldur’s Village is being made by “a small crew of amateurs,” so progress could also be sluggish, however they wish to have an preliminary launch of the mod up on the Nexus in time for Baldur’s Gate 3’s first anniversary on August 3.
In a separate post, XunHe1145 mentioned that the predominantly Chinese language talking crew is in search of assist translating their work into different languages, so in the event you’re a multilingual PC gamer with a love of each Baldur’s Gate and Stardew Valley, now’s your time to shine, child.
It has been a surprisingly booming time for the eight year-old Stardew Valley: creator Eric Barone took a much-publicized break from his mysterious upcoming sport, Haunted Chocolatier, to crank out a final hurrah hum dinger of a Stardew replace in 1.6, which most notably provides new occasions and a brand new farm sort.
That wasn’t even the top of it, both: one follow-up hotfix vaporized two inappropriate names from the identify generator (we nonetheless wish to know what they have been, by the way in which), whereas one other, thank god, fastened Mr. Racoon.
