Terrible Bug In “The Tower” I would first off like to start by saying that this is, hands down, an amazing game. From the extensive polishing to the extremely tasteful color palette to each unique area, this game is just frickin’ awesome. But I haven’t come here just to praise the game. I’ve come here to mention a bug that has practically ruined the experience for me as of late. In an area dubbed by the Wiki as “The Tower,” there exists a game-breaking bug. Destroying any explosive barrel (or at least most of the explosive barrels) will cause the game to suddenly crash without warning. This has caused my playthrough to come to a grinding halt in some places in this area. In some instances, I’ve had to comb my way through entire areas while tediously making sure not a single barrel broke, so that I could make it to the next auto save point. Not to mention another bug where the game just up and crashes randomly in the area. I’ll give you any data you need to fix this extremely buggy area. But please, I beg of you, FIX IT, DEVS!
