Story cutscenes and guided tutorials now have their own on/off toggles, so you can play the way you want without switching difficulty.
New:
- Cutscenes toggle, on the world map and in Options. Turn story cutscenes on or off at any time. While on, cutscenes now replay every time you enter a stage so you never miss a scene. While off, they are skipped but stay available in the Cutscenes & Key Visuals gallery. The one-time opening cinematic still plays only once.
- Guided tutorials toggle, on the world map and in Options. Guided tutorials are no longer tied to Easy. Choose Normal and keep the step-by-step guidance, or turn it off entirely. Easy still keeps its combat aids: fewer enemies, the undo button, and extra help.
Changes:
- Cutscenes no longer play when you resume a stage you left mid-mission, or when you restart a stage. Only entering a stage fresh from the world map plays them.
- The prompt shown when switching to Normal now explains that guided tutorials still play, and that the undo button and Easy's combat aids do not carry over.
- The Cutscenes & Key Visuals gallery is now browsable no matter which difficulty you cleared each stage on.
Bug fixes:
- Fixed a graphics initialization crash on startup affecting some Mac and Linux systems.
