Difficulty Balancing and Minor Bug Fixes - v1.0.125
Hey Oracles,
Due to complains about higher anomalies being too harsh/unfair on Chapter 1 (Tainted Reef) here is a new balancing patch with some nerfs to Anomaly 8 Chapter 1 enemies and a nerf to Anomaly 10.
Please feel free to share your feedback about those changes.
Hope this will make the gameplay experience better.
But if it doesn't we are open to make changes and keep improving the higher anomalies balancing.
