Turns out the devs cooked. Whether good or bad, remains to be seen.
Stalkers, this isn't your ordinary daily shitpost. More so a reminder of the next update, which is available now for the common player to try.
Among the new thing in store is the Master difficulty mode with "Expedition Mode" option for which, if enabled, you have limited saves and you can only save by leaving a camp or when closing the game, tells the showcase trailer.
Next is the stats bars in the Inventory menu are now looking more akin to the old games, except there are no values anywhere to be seen (dunno why).
New sprinting mode is also present, lets call it "Skif's Jogging Routine".
An "Immersive Mode" can be seen in the announcement. Its a "tool" for cinematic screenshots. Unsure how it works.
More A-Life improvements also listed, major stuff it seems
More on the rest, in the Changelog.
