Putting a dead character in a container and then yeeting that container into a chasm will no longer permanently destroy the character - they will now float around as a resurrectable Soul Echo as expected.
QA clearly wasn’t good enough if they didn’t pick up on such a game breaking bug prior to release
And…
If you dismiss your companion to camp and shove them into a chasm, Withers will now be able to resurrect them… so you can shove them into a chasm again, probably.
Whoever wrote these notes really deserves some credit
Oh shit, when they said “around the corner” they really meant it
I am really impressed with the game and the post release addressing of issues.
That is great turnaround time, but I hope they aren’t crunching like crazy to get these patches out the door. I’m fine waiting an extra week or two if it means the devs aren’t being worked to the bone.
Doubt they are cruching. They have a team of 450 people working on the game.
Holy shit, already? I wasn’t expecting another patch for a week at least.
When I started the game I ended up aquiring a strange character, but was not really sure if she was part of the game and I just missed some cutscenes when she joined or maybe she was actually on the mind flayer ship…
Now 20 hours into the game I am realizing that no, she is actually someone else’s character. Apparently when someone else joins your game their character gets tied to your playthrough and you cannot get rid of them. Ever.
What in the actual fuck.
A. I never invited anyone to play the game with me
B. Why are people allowed to join by default? Especially if it introduced a permanent character to their playthrough?
C. WHY ARE OTHER PEOPLES CHARACTERS PERMANENTLY ATTACHED TO YOUR PLAYTHROUGH.
The game has been fantastic so far, but having just realized she’s not part of the story what in the ever living fuck why is this not like a day one option to get rid of characters that aren’t your own character. It makes no sense.
From the top of the change list:
HIGHLIGHTS
- Features
- Introducing Withers’ Wardrobe of Wayward Friends! You can now dismiss co-op party members from your campaign.
- Features
Is there a way to mass delete older saves? I really only need my most recent say three but deleting them is such an arduous task.
I think this might be what you’re after
UI Improvements
Added a ‘Delete all but latest’ option for each campaign, so you can regain a little storage space wiggle room.
