Oh man, where do I even begin with this Sunderfolk update? Feels like just yesterday it was a fresh-faced game on the block, and now it’s already on patch 1.2.1! It’s like watching a toddler suddenly start walking and then, oops, they’re off to college. Anyway, yeah, they’ve dropped a second update, just chilling out there, tackling those pesky little glitches that make gamers like me want to throw our controllers through the nearest window. Maybe I’m overreacting. Or not.
So, what’s the deal with this patch? Secret Door, the game’s developers—sounds all mysterious, right?—have been playing detective, finding and squashing more than a dozen bugs. And they’ve still got over 50 other quirks they need to iron out. Fifty! Imagine trying to walk a dog with 50 leashes tangling around your feet. No idea why I thought of that, but you get the point.
Sunderfolk, if you haven’t been clued in, is this wild Dungeons and Dragons-inspired RPG. I mean, it’s even got this funky feature where you can use your phone or tablet as a controller. I remember when console controllers felt revolutionary on their own. Now, it’s like, why not throw in some kitchen appliances while we’re at it?
This whole saga kicked off back on April 23. They launched it simultaneously on every platform under the sun: PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, and PC. A royal flush of gaming platforms. But then came the inevitable bugs, and here we are today, back in the trenches with patch 1.2.1, which is basically the gaming equivalent of a band-aid. Not a huge update, not a small one either—just enough to keep the game stumbling forward instead of face-planting on the pavement.
Let’s talk specifics. They resolved this annoying QR code bug on the main menu. Picture it—you want to dive into the game, and suddenly you’re in QR code purgatory. Now, smooth sailing there. And then there’s this leveling issue. You’d level up, but the rewards would just vanish into thin air—like socks in a dryer, I swear. That’s fixed.
Steam Deck users, if you’re out there, I feel you. This update sorts out those random freeze-ups and weird resolution settings. As someone who gets irrationally angry at tech hiccups, I welcome this fix with open arms.
Hey, don’t forget, this patch fixes some Xbox and Steam authentication issues too. The game eventually didn’t recognize you, like when a bouncer doesn’t let you into a club despite your best “don’t-you-know-who-I-am” impression. It’s all under control now, supposedly.
Secret Door isn’t done yet. Nope. They’ve got Switch crashes and choppy dialogues to smooth out too. There’s even an OAuth2 snafu—sounds fancy, but broken is broken, you know?
And that’s your chaotic rundown of Sunderfolk’s latest. Strap in for more updates, ‘cause this adventure is just getting started.
