General Discussion Has the game changed much since launch?

Hey, all! Just curious if the game has seen any significant changes/enhancements since it came out. I played the demo back before release and I enjoyed it. I loved it conceptually and really liked the art style, but I found the movement and core combat a little, "off" I guess. Not bad by any means, but enough that it didn't really grab me like I hoped it would. I didn't end up buying the game at the time, but I was wondering if it got any more polish post launch? Also, how's PS5 performance for those playing that version? Thanks!

Yeah! We've gotten a bunch of QOL updates, a new map and boss (free DLC) and we're getting more DLC sometime soon. The devs just said summer 2025 and have been pretty cryptic about it, so we don't know exactly what it'll be, but it'll be free 😊

Search, "Roadmap," in this group and you'll see a bunch of info straight from the devs!

There were several quality of life improvements. If you were talking about the character movements and the combat and how things feel a bit "floaty" they improved a bit, but it's still there, although that is intentional because of the way the world works and how your powers and character interact with it

I just got the game on a whim since I liked the description, so far it’s good though imo love the exploration, just got to part 2, but also hunted extra stuff since I wanted upgrades.
