Honestly, I can't see any "improved performance" on my rig. And also this game need more translations so bad.

Had the game for a while and I started it only after this patch. I like it a lot so far, excellent story, no visual bugs and 0 crashes after like 6 hours straight gameplay.

"This new edition combines all five episodes of the original game into one complete and continuous story."

So this edition integrates the first episode: "the longest journey" (1999)?

No, only the "Dreamfall Chapters" storyline is here, "the longest journey" is a game on his own, with which this game has storyline continuity.

No. This is only "Dreamfall Chapters". Neither "The Longest Journey" (1999) nor "Dreamfall: The Longest Journey" (2006) are included.

With "the original game", Liam meant Dreamfall Chapters as it was released between 2014 and 2016, before this Final Cut edition.

Yes, this is specifically talking about Dreamfall Chapters.

Is there a way to modify some files for translation purposes?
I mean, which files must be modified?

Ok, so I tried to play The Longest Journey and it starts way too slow for me. Sure, the prologue was nice, but trying to get to school, having no money for subway and needing to collect overdue wages?

Will it get any better soon?

(For reference, I enjoyed Syberia, absolutely loved The Book of Unwritten Tales and liked a few other point'n'click games).

Anyone tested which Unity engine they bumped their version into? Does it work under Vulkan, maybe with -force-vulkan? I'm curious, and may look for it later myself as I own the game, just didn't play it yet :)
