Tara walks the world, and cutscenes get an editorial pass
Alpha · Alpha 5.2.8 · 06.07.26
Tara joins the walking cast: she now strolls through exploration scenes with her own walk cycle and four idle poses instead of standing frozen. On the fight field, characters who fall in battle no longer leave a blank hole in their cell.
The comic cutscenes got an editorial pass. Speech bubbles on the old waystone and stone plateau sequences now sit where the art wants them, the waystone's closing page switched to tall side-by-side panels, and several stone plateau panels were redrawn.
Rounding it out: most of this release lives under the hood — a broad sweep of reliability work to keep the game steady and responsive as more players join.
