Known Issues and Workarounds (AFTERLIFE EDITION)
Hey everyone! I'm going to be updating this as we go along. We're looking into fixes and improvements for these things in upcoming patches, but for now here's what we're looking at.

-------

--Where are my save files stored? Can I back them up? Does DG support Steam Cloud?
Yes they are stored in C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\deathsgambit397, you can save the folder out somewhere else and then place it back in whenever. The game also supports Steam Cloud.

--My game appears in 1/4th of my monitor.
This issue happens if you alt tab while the game is loading in. Simply hit alt + enter to enable window mode, and hit alt + enter again to enable full screen.

-I can’t hear anything despite having my volume up.
Known issue but restarting the game will fix this.

--FPS / Game Speed Issues and Refresh Rate
While it looks like the recent hotfix has fixed the problem for most 144hz users, others with refresh rates of 120hz for example, are still having issues. If you are still having an issue please email our support system. We're continuing to look into this one.

--Fps is lower than 60 but only in a specific area.
Try enabling “performance mode” in the “other settings” section of the options menu. This will not take complete effect until you save or exit the current room you are in.

Conversely if your game feels VERY slow, ensure that you are running the game with your dedicated GPU. These settings should be in your NVIDIA or AMD control panel to select which GPU is assigned to the exe. On some hardware, running in windowed mode will temporarily fix this.

--My game keeps stuttering or has brief frame freezes.
Make sure your game is saved to your C drive. This should fix your issue completely.

Enabling “performance mode” and “diminish white flashes” in the “other settings” section should also help a little bit.

--My game stutters when I save
Disabling steam cloud saving should vastly improve this.

--If you have all audio sources disabled the game won’t run. We just really want you to hear the soundtrack. Go get those headphones.

--Language is determined by region language. If you'd like to play in a different language you'll have to change that there. Under Control Panel > Region and Language > Format and choose your desired language. We're looking into adding an option for this shortly.

I can't free the 2 in the cages with the Amarok key. Whenever I try to talk to her after using the key the game crashes and I get this error:

When the fight with the Forgotten Gaian starts and I try to use the lightning spell the game crashes and I get the following message. The fire spell works fine.

he moves to upper tower in sanctuary after you find him the first time. tricky to reach without double jump but its possible with air attack and perfect timeing.

Hmm if you do any other attacks I believe this will not work. The feature is still in the game though.

I can't screenshot in the game, is this a bug?

So glad this got the update it deserved, it's great to explore these lands once more.

One weird combat issue is the counter button when I parry the down command pops up but pushing down does nothing...weird since i shield and push down to parry...counter is actually the up button for me but no remap option?

Also map/ markers are way too sensitive for a controller.

No save indicator too...I just exited to main menu too and reloaded to lose save progress. When does the game save?

So this is kinda a weird one... As far as I can tell this is a bug specifically with the scythe of reaping that came from way back when I pre-ordered the game originally. It seems that if you do a rolling attack with this scythe and then spam the attack button you can seemingly cancel the animation of the rolling attack. The weird part is that I tested this on the default scythe you get for choosing acolyte and it doesn't appear to behave the same way.

I would go to the config menu and reset all the config. Something config may be unset.
