UnMetal changes
We've had feature requests to use R3/RS on the controller to add a 5th item hotkey, and it made sense so we did it. In addition, people who have multiple monitors but wanting it to be shown on a different default one now have the option to do so. Those are easy to explain, but the importance of the new dialogue option that allows you to hit enter at the end of a subtitle matters more than many may think. We've had concerns that the speed of the voice acting is at a pace that is too fast to read the story in some languages, so I've adding an option to have the subtitles wait for an input. This should allow you to enjoy the full subtitles at your own pace. Thank you for your understanding.
We also found that a certain part of Chapter 2 had people confused and searching for direction a bit, so we've added a mission to describe the next step to help them avoid a frustrating experience with no good reason. And there are still a few "instant fail" conditions that we're working to resolve for easier difficulties. The last major one should be resolved in the later difficulties as of this patch.
Next patch will involve bug fixes and feature adjustments. But I may add something to be a bit more fun. I know a lot of you like getting a PERFECT result, but I like to ask myself what it would be like to get UNPERFECT results.
