A patch dropped and the new build should be 1207.73. Among the changes are 'improvements' to the cores draining issue. So they don't use the word fixed, but at least they're aware of it and making changes. Too early for me to notice the difference, but I did fire it up to be sure it still ran OK
I got a rainstorm, which lasted from 12:08 PM to 1:28 PM, which seemed longer than many I've seen before. I did sit still, so that I wasn't heading in to, or away from, the storm. I never tested it before so I don't know if it's actually different. Pretty useless report actually. Curious if anyone else notices if the days seem longer, or if your cores seem to last longer. Too many variables to easily tell I think, but if it's different we should feel it I think.
Body weight is working better. I've been perpetually underweight since the start of chapter 2. Tonight I ate three steaks and a can of beans, which is more than I would usually eat, slept a few hours, and it rebounded to average weight next day. I ate that much just to see if I could raise the weight quickly now. It didn't seem to matter what I ate before, it stayed stuck at underweight. But you know, it doesn't matter, as the penalty for underweight is small, and is countered by an even better bonus. I mean, I like the trade of +5% damage taken for -5% stamina drain. Going to average weight makes these values 4.5%. It's pretty insignificant isn't it? But I wanted to see if whatever cores changes they made could be seen somehow. For me it looks like it's getting there.
