Build 26318791

Hi, everyone!The last couple of days have been busy. As we promised, we've been hard at work processing all of your 1.0 feedback.

And here are the results, our first post-launch update! In it, we've focused on the hottest and most pressing issues that you guys have been experiencing with the 1.0 version of the game. Namely, the combat side of things and optimization.

And we are not planning to stop here. You can expect more updates in the future, so try the new updated Stygian and tell us what you think!

The full list of updates includes:

Gameplay & Combat

• Improved blocking feedback to make combat more responsive.

• Increased weapon switching speed for smoother combat.

• Reduced damage dealt by villagers to improve combat balance.

• Removed specific autosaves to prevent softlocks reported by players.

• Fixed an issue affecting phone calls.

Voice Acting & Dialogue

• Added full voice acting for the Shackled.

• Fixed missing or incorrect voice lines and dialogue for the Dismal Man.

Graphics & Performance

• Reduced water reflections to improve performance.

• Added additional precompiled shaders to reduce stuttering and freezes during gameplay.

If you still experience stutters or any other optimization issues while playing on hardware that meets our minimum system requirements, please consider opting into the Beta Branch of the game. It allows us to analyze why this is happening and optimize the game even further. You can read all the details about it here.

As always, we can never thank you enough for all the support you have shown us over the years of Early Access, as well as since launch. Even this update was possible only because of how active you were in sharing your thoughts and reporting issues.

We hope you will be able to get even more enjoyment out of the updated version of the game. And if you like what you see, consider leaving a review for the game.

Your feedback continues to shape the future of Stygian: Outer Gods, and there is still more to come. Until then, stay vigilant, keep your sanity close, and we'll see you in Kingsport.
