[p]Still with me, Mr. Harrow?[/p][p][/p][p]After the Big Update, requirements to unlock some achievements changed:[/p]

• [p]End game spoilers! Frankly, I Don't Give a Damn! now unlocks if you stay in the time loop by the end of the game.[/p]
• [p]When There's a Will, There's a Way now requires to obtain all 5 willpower points to unlock.[/p]

[p]Rue Valley Taskmaster could not be unlocked after the Big Update, and this patch fixes it. [/p][p]If you completed all possible intentions, finished the game after the Big Update and Rue Valley Taskmaster achievement didn't unlock, load your last save and finish the game after this patch to unlock it.[/p][p][/p][p]Thank you for visiting Rue Valley![/p][p][/p][p]Emotion Spark Studio.[/p]

[p]Still with me, Mr. Harrow?[/p][p][/p][p]Yesterday we released our Big Update for Rue Valley, and we hope you are enjoying the new content. [/p][p][/p][p]Meanwhile, some players reported an issue with auto-saves that were created during traveling. We reworked our traveling system, so these saves were negatively affected by the change, and loading them led to infinite walking or riding. This hotfix takes care of that error, and these auto-saves should be playable once again.[/p][p][/p][p]We have also addressed some issues with localization and a problem with increased font in Mind Map for the Chinese version.[/p][p][/p][p]Thank you for your patience![/p][p][/p][p]Emotion Spark Studio.[/p][p]

[p]Welcome, dear guests of Rue Valley motel![/p][p][/p][p]We hope you all are in good health and in a festive mood now that the holidays are approaching. We have not been idle since our previous update and have prepared a special community patch for you. In this patch, we addressed a lot of issues you reported to us, implemented some of your suggestions, and added new content as well.[/p][p][/p][p]Here’s what this patch changes:[/p][p][/p]

• [p]We’ve added 4 new dreams, which can grant willpower to Mr. Harrow and allow you to better explore his personal story prior to Rue Valley and how it led to his state at the beginning of the game. Exploring or ignoring these dreams will also affect the ending now.[/p]
• [p]Yes, there are 2 different endings now, depending on how many and which willpower points Mr. Harrow managed to gather during his adventures in the time loop and what he learned from interacting with Rue Valley and its residents.[/p]
• [p]Added a personal quest for Riley, and you will be able to learn more about her and interact with her more. This quest includes new intentions, interactions, animations, and inspiration points. The new quest is only partially voiced.[/p]
• [p]We have completely removed the regular (“slow”) travelling system, and now whenever Mr. Harrow goes somewhere, he will get there in 1-2 seconds, unless it’s time for Percy’s call or the time loop reset. [/p]
• [p]Reduced the amount of repetition in One Loop at a Time.[/p]
• [p]Enhanced the ending to make it more clear who or what was responsible for the time loop.[/p]
• [p]In response to the feedback from our Chinese community, we have increased the font size in Chinese localization for all UI sizes.[/p]
• [p]We have also increased the maximum size of the UI to 1,4x for all languages.[/p]
• [p]Added a tutorial on highlighting interactions. It will appear when you leave Dr. Finck's room and walk a little. If you play with a gamepad, the same tutorial will display additional information stating that you can cycle between interactions using \[L1] and \[R1].[/p]

We hope you enjoy this update! Let us know what you think about these changes, especially the new content! [/p][p][/p][p]Happy holidays![/p][p][/p][p]Emotion Spark Studio.[/p][p]
