Hey there, Fog walkers!
You asked, and we listened! Patch #11 has arrived for the Demo, and it's directly built around the feedback, reports, and suggestions you’ve shared with us both on Steam and Discord.
There are a lot of sweet fixes, but before we dive into the full list, here are some of the biggest changes:
• The demo build size has been reduced from 55 GB to 24.7 GB. No more long downloads before you play the game
• Item drops have been rebalanced, along with the number of active loot containers. Less annoying interactions. More valuable loot
• Arachnophobia Mode has been added, replacing spiders with other enemies. We respect your mental health!
And that’s only the beginning. Here’s a snippet of everything else included in Patch #11:
