Hi everyone!
As we continue to read your valuable feedback on the game, it has become clear that some of you wish to experience the story of Empathy without any kind of in-between interactions. In order to address that, today's patch introduced a new game mode which allows players to opt out of the syncing puzzle mechanic to focus on story. The new game mode is called "Memento mode" and can be found in the settings menu.
We are also introducing a Field of View setting and ability to disable the persistent cross-hair in-game (it will only pop up when mousing over interactive objects).
We continue listening to your feedback, if you have any questions or issues, don't hesitate to contact us here on the forums.
We hope you enjoy the update and stay tuned for more.
Cheers,
Surtur
