What This Patch Actually Means for Players
Pulled the patch notes apart so you don't have to. Here's what Ori and the Will of the Wisps's Patch 3.2 actually changes the moment you boot it up. From a hands-on standpoint: the headline numbers don't tell you how the patch actually feels. I ran 8 hours across 4 sessions on PC and a couple of these changes ripple further than the notes suggest.
Netcode feels more honest after Patch 3.2. I'm getting fewer 'how did that register?' moments, which is the boring but important win. The flashy balance changes get the clicks; the rollback fixes are why you'll actually stay.
Balance & Feature Changes — With Player Impact
| Change | What It Means for You |
|---|---|
| Save system reworked for run persistence | You can finally quit mid-run without losing progress. |
| The ranged carry unlock requirement lowered | Onboarding is less grindy. You see the fun stuff sooner. |
| Frame drops in the end-game island on lower-spec hardware fixed | If you played on a laptop, this one's for you. |
| Co-op desync when host leaves fixed | Friends can take over without the run imploding. |

How to Fix Crashes & Errors After Patch 3.2
Running into a crash after the patch? These are the most-reported issues and the temp fixes that actually work right now:
- Cap your framerate (RTSS or in-game limiter) to a stable value — uncapped frames push the GPU past TDP on Patch 3.2.
- Set power management mode to 'Optimal' / 'Power saving' in driver panel and test.
- Reinstall the driver using DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) for a clean slate.
- Lower texture quality to High (not Ultra) — the patch raised VRAM usage by ~600MB there.
- Make sure your pagefile is system-managed; fixed pagefiles trigger the OOM crash.
- Fast-travel to a nearby node first, then walk in. Avoids the asset spike.
Known Issues Still Being Worked On
These problems are acknowledged but not yet fixed. Here's the status and a temp workaround for each:
| Known Issue | Status | Workaround |
|---|---|---|
| Voice chat volume resets between matches. | Known | Re-check your voice settings each session for now. |
| High refresh rate monitors may cap at 60fps in borderless mode. | Pending fix | Use exclusive fullscreen until the next hotfix. |
| Controller rumble stays on after disconnecting a pad. | Known | Reconnect and disconnect the controller again to reset it. |
