addedControl ImprovementsSelection functionality is now more intuitive. Swapping party members, selecting party members in menus, and scrolling through quest logs now behave more consistently in terms of left/right buttons. If you customized your keybindings, you may want to double-check your settings to avoid confusion with the new functionality.

changedCampaign ImprovementsSeveral quality of life adjustments to the campaign. A few visual enhancements are just the beginning of improvements we've made to the campaign and that includes the demo. Overall, we continue to seek ways to make the campaign smoother for players to experience!

addedNew Save UINew look and syntax for save files. The save menu has a new look, which prevents the muddled text from appearing once players got to higher numbers of save slots. In general, it's easier to read, and the save file naming convention makes it more clear which campaign you're in and where.

changedTaliTier 1-3 Wand MP penalties reduced. This also ensures Tali can cast Volatile Spray with a full MP bar at Level 3, even when using the wand.

Major Changes

Control Improvements

Selection functionality is now more intuitive. Swapping party members, selecting party members in menus, and scrolling through quest logs now behave more consistently in terms of left/right buttons. If you customized your keybindings, you may want to double-check your settings to avoid confusion with the new functionality.

Campaign Improvements

Several quality of life adjustments to the campaign. A few visual enhancements are just the beginning of improvements we've made to the campaign and that includes the demo. Overall, we continue to seek ways to make the campaign smoother for players to experience!

New Save UI

New look and syntax for save files. The save menu has a new look, which prevents the muddled text from appearing once players got to higher numbers of save slots. In general, it's easier to read, and the save file naming convention makes it more clear which campaign you're in and where.

Characters

Tali

Tier 1-3 Wand MP penalties reduced. This also ensures Tali can cast Volatile Spray with a full MP bar at Level 3, even when using the wand.

Demo

GuharImproved overworld map scene
Emerald WoodsImproved miniboss scene and removed a log from the player's natural path

UI/UX

Adjusted some of the behaviors for selecting characters in the menu, swapping party members, and scrolling up and down in the quest log to better standardize the experience across keyboard and controller players. Note: It is recommended for players to reset their bindings to default or re-bind their desired keys again to ensure consistent and most up-to-date behavior given the internal changes.
Save file UI has a slightly new look, showing more save slots at once, and with slightly more descriptive names. This also addresses a bug where save slots would render incorrectly if the current save slot was in the double-digits. Older saves may still render incorrectly, but as you continue play, over time it should look correct. To trigger the updated naming convention, simply interact with a campfire. Note that as a result of this change, background images are no longer shown in save slots.
Animations on status effect applications/removal will no longer play if the Battle State Animations option is set to "Off" in the Graphics options
The Reforging tutorial now has an icon
The text display formatting for skill costs have been standardized

Credits

Icon artist credits for A-Ravlik and Rexard are now attributed to Olekzandr Zahorulko
Icon artist credits for lightUP is now attributed to Juliano Ferreria de Lima

Bug Fixes

Fixed a bug where the Windows taskbar icon for the game was not displaying properly
