Hello,

And could we hope a new bunch of fixes for the PS4 version !!!!!!?

I've just bought this game for my console (I have the DOS on PC) and I'm very disappointed about character graphical/visual bugs !!!

Mage robe or pants are ugly : huge clipping which let see leg skin above clothes... Or robe which move as the wind lift it !

That's totally broke the atmosphere !

There is another game update being prepared for all platforms.
There are known cloth physics issues, but I'm not sure about the status of that (it is more obvious in character creation than in-game).

Hi,

Do you plan to add Polish language on Switch version?

That is being looked into. The game uses the system language to determine the game language on console, but the Switch does not support Polish.

Why is this update 27GB?

It shouldn't be unless you need to reinstall. It's less than 100 MB.

After the update, the Nintendo Switch version crashes frequently during the game and crashes more during quick saving.

Where are you in the game? Did you move to a new act around the time of the update?

Are you getting an error message with a code or any details?

If you load an old save made before the update, does it still crash (assuming it crashes frequently enough that it is feasible to test)?

Are you saving to internal storage or a micro SD card?

If you start the game from a different user account, if available, does a new game crash? Again, if it is feasible to test, and your current playthrough will crash in Fort Joy. A different account would give a separate drive space for saves.

Try clearing the system cache: in the Home menu open System Settings, then select System, Formatting Options, Clear Cache and then the current user.
Note that this will also reset the system language and brightness setting.

Hello,

I heard that the switch version has traditional Chinese,
but the game software I bought in Japan e-shop has no way to use Traditional Chinese.

Will you launch an update?

Or do I have to re-purchase a version with Chinese updates?

Is your Switch system language set to Traditional Chinese? The language is set based on the system language, or defaults to English if the system language doesn't correspond to an available game localization.

My switch is in traditional Chinese,

Because the game localization does not correspond to the problem, the game can only be played in English.


Is there a chance to launch the language DLC to solve the problem of game localization not corresponding?



I hope to experience the whole game in the language I am most familiar with. please

I checked, and unfortunately the Japanese Switch release only contains the Japanese and English localizations.

Asian players need Chinese version very much QQ

Quick question: when an update comes up, does GoG do an automatic update if so set for this game? That can cause problems if you are in the middle of a game so, for those of you who use GoG Galaxy, it might be a good idea to set things so they do not update automatically.

As a Switch user and keen to have a portable companion for the Steam version:
Any chance of free optional DLC for Switch improving texture resolution? I have a big micro sd, space is no issue.
I don't mind a slightly lower fps for better fidelity.

Has Larian already taken advantage of Switch overclocking during loading screens?
It takes over 2 minutes to load a save sometimes.

How long does it take after the Steam release of an update for it to be sent to GoG ?
GoG says I'm up to date, but my friend got a new update today and has a newer version than me.

Same over here...

Normally Galaxy is updated pretty much the same time as Steam (then GOG usually makes patches and updates the full installer within a business day or two); I'm not sure why it wasn't today. With the Steam version there was a minor issue with one of the descriptions for a new talent, resulting in the English.pak file needing to be rebuilt, so I expect that will be updated on Steam tomorrow, and the corrected update released on Galaxy.
