Alright, so here’s the thing with the new Sunderfolk hotfix (which, by the way, you can grab right now). It’s only the second time these guys have patched the game since April. Yeah, a second patch. Seems like a while, but that’s gaming for you.
Okay, so this new 1.2.1 version? It’s supposed to squash a load of those pesky issues — you know, the ones making you want to throw your controller through a window. Fewer tech headaches now, they promise. But who ever knows if they mean it? Important to remember: Secret Door, the brains behind this, is still knee-deep in over 50 other problems you players keep yelling about.
Alright, let’s dig into this. Picture Sunderfolk: that RPG everyone’s calling a Dungeons and Dragons knockoff — but hey, with a twist. You use your phone or tablet as a controller (sure, why not?). Good ol’ Secret Door pushed this gem out there on April 23. Everywhere. PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo, PC — you name it. Fast forward two weeks — what do we get? The first 1.2 patch comes out, cleaning up a dozen bugs here and there, fixing card descriptions. Big deal, right?
Flash until mid-May 2025, and boom, we have 1.2.1. Smaller patch sure, but don’t dismiss it. Those bugs? Some real stinkers got squashed. Hopefully, this adds some oomph to the gameplay, though who really knows?
Now, what’s going on with these fixes? There’s that tricky QR code thing — yes, that one, the annoying little bug that hid the QR code in the menu, making the whole linking to the app a pain. Sorted now. Leveling up rewards also make more sense, I guess.
Steam Deck players rejoice! If you’ve had those oh-so-fun start-up freezes, consider them gone. And no more funky resolution settings — at least that’s the claim.
But wait, there’s more… Xbox and Steam pals, if you were hitting a wall trying to connect with Dreamhaven’s servers, cheers, Secret Door fixed that too. They’ve got a lot on their plate still though, with those fifty-plus issues players like you and me are still wailing about. Stuff like the Switch crashes or dialogue glitches — there’s no telling when that’ll get sorted.
So, will we see more patches soon? Maybe. Maybe not. Anyway, hold onto your hats and game on. Skim these patch notes if you’re into that kind of thing: QR code, check. Hand Size and Passive upgrades, check. Resolutions behaving, check. That’s a wrap!
P.S., I noticed the sound of running water when I was downloading the patch — kinda calming, don’t you think?
