Intro
The goal of this update is to improve quest accessibility, quest flow, and the overall quest experience. All incomplete and time-based quests are automatically removed from the quest log when starting the game with an older version. This is necessary to ensure a smooth transition to the new quest system. The quests can then be accepted again as usual.
