Techland近期為《消逝的光芒2》推送了旨在引入社區地圖和創意工坊的「The Breach」大更新，卻意外引發了一場嚴重的公關危機。更新上線後，大量玩家反饋遊戲不僅沒有變得更好，反而出現了嚴重的「負優化」。
What's happening with Techland hurts. They used to be one of my favourite studios, but ever since Tencent became the majority owner, and especially since Tymon Smektała left, it feels like the studio has completely lost its direction. Dying Light 2 keeps losing the things that made it special while gaining more live service features. They've removed the prologue. They've watered down mechanics that gave the game its own identity. They keep making unnecessary changes nobody asked for. They've even started advertising pay to win MTX on the game's LOADING SCREENS. I've always hated Ubisoft's obsession with pushing MTX through the Animus Hub and in game pop-ups, but seeing Techland advertise MTX on loading screens feels like an entirely new low. To make matters worse, updates regularly introduce new bugs that break existing features. They seem more focused on selling bundles than delivering substantial content. It's genuinely depressing watching a studio I love throw away years of goodwill. I just hope they leave Dying Light 1 alone.
在技術層面，新版本帶來了諸多惡性Bug：紫外線燈（UV light）會導致遊戲材質渲染崩壞，UI界面頻繁出現抖動現象，同時還伴隨著各種音頻故障。更讓玩家憤怒的是，官方在加載界面中強插了捆綁包廣告，進一步加劇了玩家對遊戲內微交易系統的不滿。
然而，最大的爭議點在於官方大幅刪減了遊戲的序章劇情。原本包含角色Spike的劇情被直接替換成了過場動畫，收集品位置也受到影響。這一「閹割」操作讓許多老玩家感到莫名其妙，甚至引發了關於刪減原因的種種負面猜測。這次弄巧成拙的更新，讓這款運營近五年的遊戲再次陷入了輿論漩渦。
True, I guess it's more obvious out there with tencent. Regardless both techland's directon + tencent's involvement is tragic.
