Download The 500

The economics of Baldur's Gate are broken: shortly out of Candlekeep money will cease to be a factor for the rest of the game. Attempts have been made to address this by balancing prices and items, but that it too difficult and subjective. This mod cuts the Gordian knot: every dawn the party will lose 500 gold. There is no explanation for this. Perhaps the Federal Reserve of Faerun has hiked the interest rate at last, or maybe you just have holes in your pockets.

Be prepared to quickly find yourself poorer. You can forget about just going to High Hedge or Taerom and buying all the spells and weapons that you like. You may well find yourself with 0 gold just when you need to tip someone. The clock of doom chimes every morning. It is up to you how to react: run faster in the rat race and speed up your adventuring to afford all you desire or embrace a happy paucity.

Tip: think about what light objects, suitable for an adventurer, can store value.

Compatible with all versions of Baldur's Gate.
