Fellow explorers,
With Update 1.0.3, we had a look at a wide range of smaller issues and rough edges that could sometimes get in the way of a smooth experience.
Controller input should now behave the way you expect it to. A few confusing progression moments have been cleaned up - and some interactions that felt a bit… stubborn have been convinced to behave the way they should. We're specifically talking about a few "wait, is this supposed to work like that?" situations.
We also took another pass at general clarity and consistency across multiple chapters. That includes improving visibility and conveyance where it mattered, as well as trimming down elements that ultimately added more confusion than value.
As always, a lot of this comes directly from what you've been telling us and we're incredibly thankful for the input. See the full list of patch notes below:
Fixed an issue where controller stick dead zones were not applied correctly, which could cause unwanted drifting inputs
Changed the default controller input for skipping dialogue and cutscenes to “D-pad up”
Fixed an issue where some gameplay settings were not properly reset to their default values when using the reset option
Slightly reduced how often Bale comments when interacting with certain gameplay systems in Chapter 15
The teleporter dossier entry now unlocks correctly in Chapter 04
Restored a missing conveyance symbol in the final puzzle of Chapter 12
Fixed an issue where the Discord button in the main menu would remain in the foreground when attempting to quit the game
Adjusted the behavior of a certain secret object in Chapter 02 to make it less frustrating to interact with
Removed checkpoints "3a" and "3b" in Chapter 07
These checkpoints caused unnecessary confusion without adding meaningful value
Fixed a potential soft lock related to a secret in Chapter 07
Certain hidden objects are now easier to scan
Minor collision and mesh related fixes across several chapters
Various other minor issues have been addressed
Thank you for your continued feedback and support. We really appreciate it!
