Early Access Build 0.4.0.2

This update fixes the camera stutter that could occur after dismounting from a horse, and resolves several issues that could block quest progression. We understand how significantly these problems impact the experience, so we prioritized addressing them as key fixes.

Our Current Goals

Right now, our main focus is to improve and stabilize the existing experience as quickly as possible:

• Quest-blocking issues. We have fixed several cases where quests could not progress properly, including the commander dialogue in Lost Home and missing dialogue options in A Dish Worth the Chase, Herbal Secret and The Watch Never Sleeps.

• Ghosting visual issues. We are actively investigating the root causes of visual problems. If possible, please consider sharing your hardware information to help us further diagnose the issue.

  Here are some settings that may help in the meantime:

  • Enabling DLSS (for Nvidia GPUs) usually helps mitigate the issue; FSR or XeSS can be used on other GPUs.

  • Switching to FXAA has also been reported by players to resolve the problem.

  • Options like “TAA Improved Algorithm” and “TAA Screen Percentage” in the Graphics menu can reduce ghosting at some performance cost.

• Multiplayer experience. Due to its complexity and the number of systems involved, multiplayer is still under active investigation and testing. We greatly appreciate your patience.

Optimization and Future Plans

We will continue working on:

• Bug fixing

• Overall game optimization

• Balance adjustments

• Preparing localizations (Russian and Ukrainian), currently planned for release later in December.

Our goal is to make the game smoother and more stable, while also preparing for new content in future updates.

Thanks again for all your continued support and encouragement!
