Bug Fixes and Balance Adjustments
Fixed an issue where two of the setting labels under the option for Foliage Density (Options → Graphics → Foliage Density) were blank when the text language was set to any besides Japanese.
Fixed an issue where, when the Options → Graphics → Render Distance option was set to "Lowest," fast traveling between the Windward Plains base camp and the training area could cause the game to crash.
