This week we have been laying the groundwork for creating better contextual NPC behaviors which in itself is a first step towards making encounters and adventures more dynamic, dramatic, and impactful.
For now, most of that effort remains under the hood, although you will notice that at night shops close and fewer people will roam the streets of Haven and other settlements.
Gameplay Changes
- Less people are on the streets of settlements during the night.
- Shops in settlements close down during the night.
- When you are allowed to recover health after completing a deed, you will always also recover from wounds, poison, and other conditions affecting your health.
- You may catch outlaws and imperials destroying vases because apparently they are feeling like it.
Bug Fixes
- When you have completed a task, folk in Haven, and similar quest givers, stop offering associated hints as useful information.
