V1.9.04 Patch Notes

I hope you have been keeping Gourmand well fed and Artificer away from the scavs. Over the weekend we released another patch to fix various bugs including echoes in Expedition mode putting the player's karma cap into a broken state and adding an extra 16:10 aspect ratio resolution option for better display on Steam Deck. You can read the full patch notes below.
