Only five more tasks until we get our hands on the new release. The devs have made a new blog post explaining a workaround they figured to fix some of the optimization problems they were having. The game ran fine at normal modes, but on fast forward it slowed down a lot. It took several minutes to pass 8 hours or so. So they have implemented a “skyrim-like” wait system. It’s interesting and apparently works well. I suggest you read the full blog post for more information!
