Dungeons & Dragons IP holder Wizards of the Coast may have cast an unceremonious DMCA on fans' Baldur's Gate 3 Stardew Valley mod, but that doesn't mean Baldur's Gate 3 director Swen Vincke – who called the made-with-love mod "amazing" earlier this month – agrees.
"Free quality fan mods highlighting your characters in other game genres are proof your work resonates and a unique form of word of mouth," Vincke says in response to Wizards of the Coast's takedown in a series of Twitter posts. "Imho they shouldn't be treated like commercial ventures that infringe on your property."
