Frostrain 2 : 0.8.4 Update

0.8.4 Update

While trying to update the game more frequently, I was reminded why the previous 0.7 version updates stopped at 0.7.4. When there is no new content… there are naturally fewer things to fix, aren’t there? It is obvious, but I have realized it once again. Since we are currently continuing to develop new content, this update only includes relatively small changes focused mainly on balance adjustments. Thank you for your understanding.
