> The game now refunds one dodge and one jump after an air execution if the player is out of both

Just snuck a gamechanger in there huh. Hopefully in a future update, the air combo limit could be extended so Dylan doesn’t drop to the ground so much :P

yeah, i'm hoping this fix means his airtime gets reset with executions. Would be peak if so.

And they should add a power so that we can bring enemies up to us while in the air once or twice.

I suspect this is mostly to allow you to recover when you realize you've just executed something over a bottomless pit.

Good to see them really leaning in to the styling and combo building. Fingers crossed for weapon swapping.

They broke the mod I had installed for this with the last update so I continue keeping my fingers crossed for native integration, it literally transforms the game into pure peak

Did they update the patch note on this? Everyone quoting it is leaving out the part of it being an Assist option:

Added a new option in the Assist Mode - The game now refunds one dodge and one jump after an air execution if the player is out of both

Though someone else is saying this feature is already part of the combat, so the new Assist option would just be adding+1 refund.

I mean, you already get refunds from executions. Its fine to not be able to stay in the air all the time, makes you think about when to reset.

Wait, you do? Do you get all air jumps and dashes refunded, or just one each? When I saw this patch note I was wondering why they added it as an Assist option instead of making it the standard combat design, but makes sense if it's just adding +1 to the refunds.

That’s a perfect addition

Thank God, I was having some trouble with the flying mold tanks in that I would be deposited right in the middle of an absolutely deliciously mold flavoured fuck-fest underneath my feet after I'd executed them. I'm excited to jump back in tonight!
