We apologize to our players that the new cosmetics in our Halloween Update only applied to new save files. We have now fixed this, and you're free to see and apply all the new cosmetics in your current playthrough. This hotfix is now live for PC players. We will update our console version as soon as it passes all checks. Thank you.

We were also able to fix the following bugs:

• Hub NPCs missing after triggering the objective "Identify wealthy Melancholic Victims for Nix", blocking further progression.

• Savegames incorrectly redirect to game directory when running with admin privileges, bypassing Steam Cloud Sync.

• The conversation prematurely ends upon selecting the dialogue prompt "There was no other way" in "IC to CH_Ryong_500_BakerKindred".

• Missing floor collision near pillar on right side of door causes player to fall out of world underground area.

• Missing floor collision near 1st pillar on left side of door causes player to fall out of world underground area.

• Cosmetics are not unlocked on persistent saves, only available on new game

Greeting Carants!  

We’re quite keen on choices over here. Not only are they highly present within the story, but they extend to the gameplay, too – the game's difficulty, your playstyle, and even your key bind settings.  

Here, we’ll go over the options the game has that will either make your life easier or more challenging depending on your playstyle. These changes were made due to your feedback; created to give you more control, you’ll now be able to play the way you want in our next major update.  

Buckle up, and let’s get into it!  

Choices on top of choices! My favourite meal. 

When you first start a new game after the next update, you’ll be given different playstyle options. You’ll be able to select the one that fits your needs the most – so make sure to read them carefully before selecting.  

If you’re not enjoying the profile you’ve selected, then fear not: you'll be able to change them at any time from the in-game menu. 

Tactical: 

This choice offers a more in-depth tactical experience, allowing you complete control over your companions and the battle. Activate or disactivate the Autonomous companion AI, freely control the camera, and use the tactical pause as needed. You can freely change the number of stackable actions too, if you so please.  

Hybrid: 

Perhaps a pure tactical style isn’t for you, but you don’t want to solely focus on your character. In this case, hybrid combat might be the best choice for you – activate and disactivate the Autonomous AI, give yourself partial control over the camera and tactical pause. And as with the Tactical option, you can change the number of stackable actions here too.  

Focused: 

And if neither of these fit the bill? Then there’s the focused option. Autonomous AI will always be activated, allowing you to focus solely on your character whilst your companions take care of themselves. You’ll also have partial control over the camera, and the tactical pause’s functions will be restricted.  

Behold how their puny arrows bounce off me!  

So, you’ve made your choice and are ready to jump to the next screen. More options will open to you here, allowing you to pick your difficulty. Story mode is perfect for those who want to cruise through the combat and enjoy the game for the story. Perhaps you like a more balanced approach: in that case, Adventure mode will suit you needs. If you're feeling more daring and want tougher battles, then give Tactical mode a whirl.

You can even customize this yourself through the sliders at your disposal. Perhaps you want to give yourself the edge through higher damage. Perhaps you want want to make the game as challenging as possible by giving your enemies higher damage. It’s all in your hands – just make sure you’ve stacked up on healing potions!  

Want something more challenging? Feel like dodging both your allies and enemies? Then slap on friendly-fire and carefully position your characters on the battlefield so you don’t hit each other. It’ll add a new layer to the tactical combat and really keep you on your toes. 

And if you’d prefer to focus on the story, companions, and romance without really touching the combat, you can make yourself immune to enemy attacks. Steamroll your way through battle and laugh at your enemies as they stand there, unable to do anything. After all, when arrows and axes bounce off you like nothing, what is there they can do?  

There’s more on here than my Christmas wishlist.

After this, you’ll jump into character creation and the game itself. There are more options you can tweak after watching the starting cutscene or in the game’s opening menu.  

SUBTITLES 

Want to change the subtitle language? Are you a linguist who’d like to learn the natives’ language as you go along? Or maybe you’d simply like to change the font size and add a background? This is where the Interface comes in. Pick what you need and set off on your adventure with the subtitles that suit you.  

KEYBINDS 

If you’re a keyboard user, you’ll also be able to change the key bindings to those of your preference under Game Controls. If, say, the sprint button’s location isn’t to your liking, you can simply swap it out for another. This gives you the ability to play your way with the buttons you’re comfortable with.  

CAMERA 

That’s not all. We heard your feedback: if you feel the camera’s sensitivity needs adjusting, or that it just shakes a little too much, you can change it from Control Options.  

Overwhelmed by choices, these NPCs chose to simply cower instead.

These are just some of the options you’ll be presented with. Take your time to go through them all and pick what you need to make the game flow how you want.  

We’ll see you very soon for the next major update, Carants. We’re looking forward to you getting your hands on it!
