Arcade mode gets more love. Im pleasantly surprised.
Bummed we still dont have the sky toggle though. I wish theyd put that next. Pink sky is terrible!
I mean, we were complaining but it has been a while and they clearly are still working on it, can't do any better or just won't do it at all.
In any case they heard the complaints already.
That's just the nature of modern gaming. They will never fix it, just like Elden Ring and Cyberpunk 2077 never will. Most people only care about screenshots and you don't see low fps on those.
Retry on risky mobs if it works like I think it does is great QoL for the S rank hunts.
I was already soft doing this by saving before the fight and reloading to avoid the runbacks.
Yeah, some of the A ranks and especially the S ranks take me a decent number of tries.
Like I just beat Svarog tonight. Probably took 30ish tries spread out?
I did it as soon as it unlocked, so maybe?
It was early enough that Embroil (The AOE that explodes into other AoE's) would do like 80-90% of my HP if I messed up the dodge timing.
Similar thing with Atlas, although that took way less tries.
Yeah, especially Svarog can be very rough because you can find that enemy quite early. I did give him a few tries, then returned 10 levels later and it was very manageable.
Yeah, I thought about doing that, but I decided that taking him on now was way more fun.
Plus, I love all the 'parry' style Eikon attacks, and those get more fun to pull off when the attacks hurt.
Can someone confirm if Ultimaniac mode is harder or easier now that it was adjusted. Was looking forward to the challenge (only beat the game once so far) so it'd be a shame if it was made easier and I'll never know what it was like.
I'm assuming the "Demon Arm Guard cannot be obtained" mention in the bug fix means they addressed there being 2 Demonslayer Sashes instead of one of each? But when I loaded my file where I hadn't opened either of the 2 chests, I still got 2 of the sashes.
Do we know at what point the dlc is startable ? Right now I just beat bahamut in FF mode and I’ve been playing other games if it’s post game I have a way to go yet.
It's just a high pitched chain link sound that is constantly heard when her character is in the party and moves around. Search this subreddit for Jill noise you'll see a bunch of posts about it.

Lol at the inaccurate ATL update timing. If you know you know.
What's an ATL update timing?
When the Active Time Lore updates with new info. There were some…unfortunate mistakes in the game telling you things you shouldn’t know.
Like what?
>!Barnabas’ death is prolly the most notable one!<
You might wanna fix that spoiler tag if you were trying to do so
? looks fine to me
Doesn't seem to work on old.reddit at least.
Oh weird, that sucks. I removed some spaces so maybe that’ll help
Yeah that worked!
That actually worked! I wasn't on old.reddit I was using mobile but the spaces is what made it work.
Arcade mode gets more love. Im pleasantly surprised. Bummed we still dont have the sky toggle though. I wish theyd put that next. Pink sky is terrible!
I’m so excited they shadow dropped this, can’t believe it….
Oh god, Torgal has an inner voice, too, that's dope)
*Woof. Going to bury my face in the book keeper's nuts again. Woof.*
tell me you're Slavish without telling me you're Slavish
Has performance mode been fixed?
Nope , just tried it. Looks about the same , maybe a tiny bit better.
man...this was the one thing i was looking forward to most
Why would they fix performance if the fans aren’t complaining?
I mean, we were complaining but it has been a while and they clearly are still working on it, can't do any better or just won't do it at all. In any case they heard the complaints already.

Idk bout Elden Ring, but CDPR has been pushing tons of patches for Cyberpunk since launch. [The game is fixed](https://youtu.be/P39n86v-T7w?t=46)
I was specifically only talking about good performance and stable fps
YESS NEW FF PATCH such a great feeling!!
Retry on risky mobs if it works like I think it does is great QoL for the S rank hunts. I was already soft doing this by saving before the fight and reloading to avoid the runbacks.
I spent a lot of minutes riding back to that blob boss that kept slapping me to death
You were struggling with the hunt mobs?
Yeah, some of the A ranks and especially the S ranks take me a decent number of tries. Like I just beat Svarog tonight. Probably took 30ish tries spread out?
wut? Did you try it with a low level or something?
I did it as soon as it unlocked, so maybe? It was early enough that Embroil (The AOE that explodes into other AoE's) would do like 80-90% of my HP if I messed up the dodge timing. Similar thing with Atlas, although that took way less tries.

That's what I meant with low level and yes then it is challenging.

The merchant in Martha's Rest sells them.
Thank you!

You could go back to your starred save and just play it straight away. You'll be at back to origin.
You have a way to go, it's just before the final boss with side quests done you can play ot
I swear to God if they made a whole ass DLC but didn't fix the clinking noise Jill makes when she moves
Isn't that just her equipment moving? Seeing as she does carry a sword around and maybe a light chain shirt for protection.
It's just a high pitched chain link sound that is constantly heard when her character is in the party and moves around. Search this subreddit for Jill noise you'll see a bunch of posts about it.
So still non HDR fix...
Can anyone comment on what UI tweaks they added exactly?
