However, the October patch is more of a hot fix. It fixes some bugs and optimizes some things. Especially noticeable is that a warning for seizures has been added, and a mode that hides lightning-like effects has also been implemented. This makes the game more accessible for light-sensitive people who suffer from epilepsy, for example.
Additionally, some bugs and ambiguities in the quests have also been fixed. These include, for example, the Sunstone quest from Mother Gothel and the quest with the Root Beer from Scar.
