The Legend Of Dragoon Update Addresses Buggy Launch

Fans on the subreddit have corroborated that first point, "Can confirm updated and used final burst, blossom storm, and astral drain IN A ROW! No soft lock."

DrewUniverse is also asking fans to stress test things like using Dragoon Magic, so if something appears fixed, rewind and try it again to make sure.

Already, many in the comments of the patch notes are testing the bug fixes, and the sentiment seems to have flipped from outrage at the buggy port to relief at how fast fixes were rolled out; one commenter said, "I'm so happy to hear this. So far, the only problem I had was audio cutting. It seemed to happen about an hour into playing every time. If I reset, it was fixed for about an hour and then started up again. Hopefully, it's all fixed."

The only known or "new issues" left aside from wonky character models is the "extra spacing on sides of command bar in combat", but given
