addedAn additional bonfire has been added to The America Project browsing challenge, as well as something to comfort you on your journey.
changedA slew of optimizations targeting both GPU- and CPU-bound machines. People should generally see performance improvements, especially in areas dense with goblins.
changedThe "View Distance" setting in the graphics settings now affects how aggressively NPC animations are throttled by distance. If you have had performance issues in areas with lots of NPCs—or if you have not had performance issues and want NPC animations to be less aggressively throttled—you should update that setting the next time you play.
changedUpdated goblin LODs to better-preserve important detail on low-end systems.
changedCorrectly updated the Swamp Sorcerer Hat's provenance. Thanks Lumenoxis.
addedAdded a 500 FPS cap setting to the graphics menu because somebody named Wormy asked for it. I don't really understand.

I was planning on also using these patchnotes to do a little roadmap. But it got late and it's Friday night, and you know what that means: Time to go walk my dog three times in a row. Bye.
