Hi Everyone,

The first patch notes of the New Year has a bunch of neat fixes for the live game and content for the upcoming Endless Mode on the beta branch.

Live change log

• Fixed an issue where buffs did not update correctly if the stats they were based on changed. Now all item buffs will correctly apply stats gains received after initially equipping the item granting the buff.
  
• Fixed an issue where bleed stats were not correctly applied to the character dealing the bleed damage.
  
• Added a cap to minions to prevent a number of issues caused by endless minion spawns.
  
• Updated the Simplified and Traditional Chinese translations for several achievements.
  
• Fixed an issue with the translation of credits for Simplified and Traditional Chinese. The font should now display properly.
  
• Fixed incorrect stats on the common Bleeding Dagger and buffed the bleed duration of the rare and epic version.
  
• When clicking old women they will now have their own unique sound and not the old man sound.
  
• Foxes now have a sound when clicked. What does the Fox say?

Endless Mode change log:

• Added 15 new end of day buffs.
  
• Rebalanced difficulty (this is an ongoing task so please keep feedback coming! :) )
  
• Fixed an issue with day buffs granting fire aura, where fire aura would not be properly applied.
  
• The day number now shows up in proper colour.

It's been really cool seeing how far people can get in Endless Mode and we appreciate all the feedback we've gotten so far. Rest assure that we're still balancing the mode with the goal to have a fun new experience live for everyone this month.

We're so grateful to have you all take part of this journey with us! :)

In Hell is Us, Player Plattering strips away the maps and waypoints—leaving you to trust nothing but your instincts, the clues you uncover, and the chaos around you.

Jonathan Jacques-Belletete - Executive Creative Director and Art Director of Hell is Us:

In Hell is Us, you won’t have a magical map or compass revealing all points of interest surrounding you, no markers identifying your next quest objective, and no artificial or mechanical guides to orient you. Instead, we invite you to dive directly into the game’s universe and rely on your own observation, reasoning, and intuition to progress. The environments are not there simply to decorate, they are there to communicate. Correspondingly, paying attention to what the NPCs tell you is crucial; as what they tell you is actual organic information about what to do and how to do it.

We call this concept “Player-Plattering”, as it is the opposite of “Silver-Plattering”. It represents our deliberate choice not to serve everything to the player on a silver platter with ready-made directions and answers. Instead, we want the player to regain full control of their adventure by exploring, discovering, and deciding for themselves.

Although this choice is bold, it aims to create a deeply immersive gameplay experience. You’ll need to explore every corner of our world, pay attention to even the smallest clues, and be creative in solving the investigation that lies ahead. We firmly believe that this approach enhances immersion, plunging you into an adventure where every discovery is the result of your own cognitive effort. We want to bring back the true, old school, joy of exploring and discovering.

Some people chase the most intense sensations, while others embrace their softer, more sensitive sides... 💖 But what about our amazing ladies? 💃✨

PS - Did you know that Allura can make certain parts of her body HUGE? 😲 She didn’t know either! 🤭
