Hey everyone,
Just wanted to follow up on a couple of questions that have been popping up since the last patch was released and then rolled back.
On the topic of what the patch was for, it was a small number of UI and controls updates to improve the user experience on SteamDeck.
On the subject of save data, it's currently unclear exactly how that broke the backwards compatibility for saves, but we will investigate and update you all once we know.
However, the error message does not mean that you lost your save game, only that the patched version was unable to read the file. After the rollback to the old version of the game, your save data should be recovered.
Also, we want to apologise for the hijinks this patch caused and also the lack of patch notes at the time of release. We will, in future, make sure to share patch notes, so you know what the patch is addressing for any future patches.
And thank you for all the valuable feedback you have been sharing, it is much appreciated, and we will be in touch soon when we have concluded our investigation and gotten to the bottom of things. If you notice any more bugs, as always, please continue to report them and let us know. You can report them here: https://rawfury.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/1
Hope you have a good rest of the weekend!
