To quote Steve McQueen in the 1960’s “The Magnificent Seven”:
Various players have already reported other serious bugs, such as crafters taking poison damage out of nowhere, and flat out disappearing. People have already lost valuable master crafters, such as bladesmiths and shieldwrights, to these bugs. Oh, and there’s this one lovely report of crafters ending up outside the cursewall.
It might not be “the worst update ever”, but it’s far from what any reasonable player should expect from a studio that decided to change their release cadence from 3 to 6 months so they could deliver higher quality releases.
