Sorry that these notes aren't the most flushed out nor explanatory notes. We're focusing in on improving the game and building the instructional literature that will teach people how all of the mechanics work and interact with one another! Better NPC Behavior - less robotic NPCs with more flavorful approaches Swing Chambering - when your weapon glows red... you will swing with increased velocity! The brighter the glow, the greater the gain! Backstep configurability - Backstep can now be configured more granularly in Simulation Tuning Combat Text Configurability - decide with more granularity what text you'd like to see Tutorial Redesign Started (improvements to ship tonight) Stance Viewer fixed to stop rendering a blank screen.
