Finally, a big step has been made to increase performance. This should be a MAJOR update for the people playing on low-mid-end computers. So rejoice, make a bonfire, do a rain dance, and play The Lost!

Can we please optimize this game!?
- Optimised the prologue with lesser events running and swapping out some plugins. This is only for the prologue, so there will be graphic and performance issues after the prologue.
- Balanced down the agility of Lizaru by 20% so they do not always go first once you reach the level threshold.
- Balanced down the agility, defense, and magic defense and upped the % of damage from spells for the 'Relics of Old' hunt monster boss.
- Balanced the tutorial fights so the enemies are weaker and it is easier for the player to get by.
- Balanced the movement skills to give an extra buff or de-buff depending on the target and added a better explanation.
- Fixed a mini label not showing anymore after doing the 'Here Camel, Camel, Camel' side event.
- Revisioned the dialogue in the 1st area in the Desert Region.

Hurry up and give me some visuals!

- Revisited all the text boxes in the starting area (Dokta-Drunk Lizard- Bridge- Rikta Tribe + Plam Forest) when playing Ragno to be more punchy and less wordy.
- Revised the 'black screen' cut scenes in the starting area when playing Ragno and gave them cut scenes.
- Deleted the font option. Many fonts are not functioning right in how I set up the game.
- Put text speed on 10 as standard. Text will be shown faster now.
- Re-organized the descriptions of skills.
- Changed multiple TP skills to target 1 ally rather than the user only.
- Changed the difficulty of the prologue to be more difficult.
- Gave Jomal a TP skill to use in the prologue.
- Gave Kaan his sword skill earlier. It makes more sense when you find the double-handed sword for him to have the skill to use.
- Gave the fights with the captain more spunk by having their own battle music and adding 'boss moves' to them.
- Gave the fight with the Rat boss leading the pack and the Fanged Chieftain its own battle music.
- Fanged battle groups when doing Mikatu's side event are linked now, reducing the number of possible enemy battles by 50%.
- Fixed some grammar issues.
