definitely running smoother than before, though still occasionally crashes. also i noticed that being caught while picking up an object or jumping can cause the animation to not start playing, but still disable you from moving and put you in free-camera. also, opening the clothing menu mid-dungeon(unsure about forest) can sometimes make the game crash.
all in all, though, its going good for an early game so far. some of the issues could be the fact that my laptop is about 10 years old and is absolute shit, so some of the issues i mention may be specific to outdated laptops with horrible hardware
tl:dr my laptop is very old, so a lot of the issues i encounter are probably not your fault. you are doing good so far!
