7/27/20 Update 1.5.4 (Chapters 3 and 4/Polish)
Lawless Lands,
Hey everyone!
So, I decided to break the final update down into two large updates instead of one gigantic update. Originally, I wanted this content to go with the remaining work, but I found that some people are willing to go above and beyond and help me with bug testing, and that certainly helps me a lot. I can get content created, get bug reports and fix them, and continue on without being slowed down.
This update adds chapters 3 and 4 of the main story, a bunch of polish and bug fixes, and a lot more content as well. General improvements and so on.
The final chapter of the story and the rest of the content for final release will be available within the next few weeks. I'm working as efficiently as I possibly can by fixing problems as I go and also adding new stuff, so please be patient with me as it's a lot to do.
Another big reason I'm releasing this update now is because it patches a lot of issues that were present in the current build and I wanted them removed so people can enjoy what is currently available without the painful bugs.
All currently known issues are fixed - 100% of them. If you have any more issues, please do let me know so that I may fix them and deliver a better final product.
Check out the complete change log below!
