The main goal of the update is to make the gameplay more comfortable, to add story immersion, interesting quests and an even creepier atmosphere to the game.
Story
Now the character begins the game with a prologue. He wakes up in the basement, and immerses himself in the backstory by reading notes and listening to audio diaries on tapes. To get to the main building, you need to go through quests in the basement, which require logical thinking and ingenuity. An omnibus storyline is also introduced, according to which the character has to investigate the circumstances of the disappearance of the detectives who investigated this place before him.
Graphics update
Updated textures of rooms, added details of locations. The layout of the premises has been partially changed on the map. There were more of them, as well as possible shelters and opportunities to bypass.
Added new post-processing effects: fog from dust (with quality behavior relative to light).
The lighting has also been changed. Places where there are no light sources are completely dark, but at maximum zoom, the surrounding elements and the character's hands are still visible.
The light sources now have an increased quality of distribution, and the translucence of surfaces has been eliminated.
