The update makes numerous improvements to gameplay and accessibility, and also fixes a range of bugs.

The update adds functionality for automated quick time events, an under-acknowledged accessibility issue in gaming for people with RSI or other disabilities, so players will have the option to just push a button and be done with it.
The overall UI size has been adjusted to make it more usable on both PCs and Steam Decks, an inventory sorting function has been added that enables players to easily ditch unnecessary items while diving, and menu navigation has been improved to make it easier to get around in vertical lists.
The dev is pretty active and it’s a big patch. I didn’t play it before the patch so I don’t have a point of reference, but I think the praise is that the devs actually listen to people.
I enjoy the game but I can see it not being for everyone. Management type games are a weird niche I didn’t expect to even like myself.
