Patch 1 - 06 Oct

Voice acting

  • Restored missing voice acting to the very first scenes with Malec and Atri;
  • Added voice acting to two more chapters of the game (the dance party, endings and epilogues are still a work in progress);
  • Minor fixes to Alpheon's first introduction (restored a missing voice line);

Text issues

  • Added some clarification to the diplomatic path with Valerico;
  • Fixed a codex tooltip when going to LaMarina;
  • Added some clarification to a conversation with Ascanio regarding the Halls' magick;
  • Added a line to make a scene with Sylas less abrupt if you're on friendly terms with Renza;

  • A couple more assorted text fixes;

Other

  • Fixed the scene transition when returning to LaMarina;
  • Fixed character positions when returning from the docks;
  • Fixed the Envoy's cape sudden disappearance in Bástian's scene;
  • Made the background music in Alpheon's introduction smoother;
  • Made the background music in Enilia's introduction smoother;
  • Unlocking the romance preferences will now bring up the stat menu, so you can customize them right away!
  • After being jump scared by the bell one too many times, finally lowered its volume;
  • Atri respects your personal space now in your scene with her, after you have access to The Refrain;
  • Made the transition to the Halls' video background smoother;
  • Lowered the volume of the Halls' waterfall;
  • Fixed the Envoy's position when talking to the siren;


Known issues

  • Auto-saves misbehave. It looks like you only have one, and the rest of the page is empty. Temporary fix: go to the second page of auto-saves and return to the first. The auto-saves will be there again;

If you  encounter any bugs during your playthrough, send them my way!

I'll push another patch very soon with the rest of the voice acting and more fixes.
