Wuchang: Fallen Feathers’ Performance Update Improves Its Biggest Issue

by

As a gamer, I was really looking forward to diving into Wuchang: Fallen Feathers based on its positive review scores. However, my excitement quickly turned sour when it launched on Steam and received an overwhelming number of negative reviews within a day, mostly due to optimization issues. The game’s Mostly Negative rating was a real letdown. Fortunately, developer Leenzee Games acknowledged the feedback and promised to work on improving the game’s performance. Today, they delivered on that promise with an update for Wuchang: Fallen Feathers, which significantly enhances its performance. Here’s hoping for a smoother gaming experience now!

In Update 1.3 of “Wuchang: Fallen Feathers”, the primary focus was to enhance performance. Players have been expressing that the game now runs significantly smoother, an improvement even for those who adhered to the recommended settings but experienced frame drops and screen tearing before. This update has transformed “Wuchang: Fallen Feathers” into a more enjoyable experience on PC, making it playable for many more users.

Besides addressing the issue with Update 1.3, other problems and glitches were resolved as well. For instance, a bug that resulted in “Wuchang: Fallen Feathers” crashing was tackled. Leenzee Games also revised the gameplay experience, particularly in Chapter 2 where players encountered land mines. The quantity of mines and the damage they inflicted have been decreased.

Leenzee Games has promptly rolled out an update and plans to release another one soon, promising extensive enhancements that should boost performance and fix existing problems. The problem related to Deluxe Edition owners has already been resolved. As a gesture of goodwill for the issues encountered during launch, all steam purchasers of Wuchang: Fallen Feathers will receive the soundtrack at no additional cost, while those who bought it will be refunded.

To see all the changes made in Update 1.3 for ‘Wuchang: Fallen Feathers’, please go through the details provided in the following update notes.
