Natural enemy spawn changes:
- 2d hallucinations of enemies regularly spawn all over the world. Approaching a hallucination will transform it into a real version of that enemy.
- In general, hallucinations should give the player more control over enemy encounters, as you can actively seek the enemies you want to fight. It also adds a lot to the ambience, as you can now see the world be populated by enemies even from afar.
- The old spawn system is still present, but on a slower cooldown; creating less frequent bursts of action. Smaller areas which do not benefit too well from the hallucinations, such as the starter shrine and volcano underground, now speed up its cooldown.
