More Patch Notes please

Postby Sarpynom » Sat Aug 25, 2012 6:17 am

It would be nice if we were informed of changes made to the game. Secret patches that change something (especially when it is not completely obvious) can ruin the game for people who were around before said patches.

Discovering changes is a large barrel of fun!

The mystery that surrounds this game is done well IMO. I like having to figure out whats new each patch.

I dont see how audio updates and bugfixes are going to ruin the game for anybody.

If you don't see how a secret patch can ruin the game for somebody then this probably doesn't apply to you anyway.

I like clarity of what patches are doing, but the devs want players to discover witchcraft on their own anyway so there's no way we can have full disclosure.
It's been neat to see the evolution of a game. Salem has come so far, and still has far to go. Although frustrating, I think it's been an experience worth the effort.

If something was changed in a way that can make playing harder or requires players to change their methods, it should be noted. If things are added and left for players to find... meh. I like the surprise. That's my philosophy, anyway. If it's something everyone should know about, such as Fishing, definitely bring it up.

What, exactly, wasn't disclosed that's making your gaming experience different or are you just assuming something? As far as I can tell, nobody has reported anything so it could have just been a couple of minor bug fixes or Easter egg additions.
