Dear players, hello everyone!
The second post-launch update is now live. We’re continuing to polish the overall experience and have made further optimizations focused on the issues most actively discussed within the community.
In the latest v1.0.2.1 update, we’ve enhanced the functionality and feedback of the Altar of Absolution, making it easier for players to recover companions who were accidentally harmed. At the same time, we’re aware of an issue where certain hostile characters killed by the player may still appear in later story scenes, resulting in the odd situation of “deadman talking.” This issue is actively being addressed and will be gradually resolved in upcoming versions.
Thank you so much for the lively discussions and feedback in the community. We carefully read and evaluate every suggestion you share. Additional improvements to interactions and overall usability are already in planning and will be rolled out step by step in future updates. Thank you all for your continued support and understanding!
