Alright, let’s dive into this wild ride of gaming chaos. So, you’ve got Wuchang: Fallen Feathers — a game people toss around names for like it’s nobody’s business. Some call it Souls-slop or gooner-bait. Right? Whatever those mean. But now, with this new 1.5 update, you can slap “censored” on that list too. Seems the devs tweaked the game to calm some Chinese fans. Diehards who snagged a physical copy? They’re probably high-fiving themselves right now. No patch nonsense for them!
So, this patch slipped in this week with loads of changes. Most are whatever. You know, sped-up healing and dodging like a boss. Yet—here’s where it gets juicy—“Added dialogs for some NPCs to complete some plots.” Huh? Plot thickens, my friend. “We’re gonna optimize those exhaustion animations.” Sure, sure, whatever that means.
Developer Leenzee? What’s their angle? Kinda. Social media’s buzzing thanks to Souls buff Lance McDonald. He’s cracking up, “‘Cause now, you can’t off any historical bigwigs or NPCs. Instead, they just chill out after you beat them. Like, seriously?” Historical dudes like Liu Wenxiu are just taking breathers now. Can you even?
This McDonald guy, he’s tweeting like a storm, something about censorship from irked Chinese players. “People, chill—it’s a game!” You were fighting a zombie dragon emperor—how’s that offensive? And now the plot’s…meh. Like the “pray” move from some Portuguese dude in-game? Poof, gone. And Chapter 4’s Ming soldiers? They’re suddenly pacifists. You could breeze through with one hand tied.
Pair this mess with enemy nerfs and easier bosses. Cue chaos on Steam and Reddit. Some players are practically rioting, saying Wuchang subreddit bosses are ghosting their grievances. Here’s a gem: “After 80 hours on Steam, I’m jumping to console.” But here’s the twist—not everyone’s up in arms. PC’s getting smoother under the radar.
Steam reviews? Not so fast. They’re getting tanked over “censorship.” Framerate crashes are old news. What’s Leenzee’s side of the story? Crickets, my friend. Update 1.5 just hit the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S scene today.
So, yeah. It’s a patch, but it’s wild out here in Wuchang-land.
