[Major Update 0.8.90] - UI Overhaul, Traits & Loot Drops

Dear players, here's what's new in this update:

【New Content】

1. [UI Style Overhaul] The entire UI has been redesigned with a new unified style, drawing inspiration from various RPGs, Diablo, Total War, and Warhammer 40K.

2. [Character Traits] 27 unique character traits have been added, enhancing character individuality and growth — they evolve alongside your character!

3. [Unused Talent Indicator] The top-left corner of the character UI now displays unspent talent points for easy tracking.

4. [Equipment Loot Drops & Auto-Pickup!] When monsters drop equipment, it now bursts out and lands on the ground! In non-dungeon combat, party members will automatically pick up loot upon victory. In dungeons, auto-pickup occurs between rounds and after the final round if victorious!

5. [Click to Pick Up Items] Players can also click on dropped items to pick them up!
