Quests

• Fixed an issue with starting the conversation with Johnny at the end of 'Life During Wartime'.

• Fixed a rare issue where NPCs would stop calling V if 'Second Conflict' was interrupted halfway through.

• Fixed an issue where Nix would not go into his default state in 'Spellbound' and 'KOLD MIRAGE'.

• Fixed progression-blocking issues in 'I Fought the Law' if the player left the quest area.

• Fixed an issue where Delamain could not be found in 'Epistrophy'.

• Fixed issues related to being stuck in the second phase of the quest after completing the Pacifica fight with Ozob during post-gameplay.

• Fixed an issue where Nomads would no longer appear if V left the quest area mid-combat in 'With a Little Help from My Friends' or 'Queen of the Highway'.

• Corrected objective tracking and re-enabled the quest tracker in 'M'ap Tann Pèlen', 'I Walk the Line', and 'Transmission'.

• Fixed constraints on standing up and sitting down when conditions were not met in 'Play It Safe'.

• Fixed timing and progression issues resulting from leaving the quest area or abandoning the quest in 'Big in Japan'.

• Other quest fixes

Gameplay

• Fixed missing animations for key quest NPCs during cinematics.

Performance and stability

• Improved stability, including various crash fixes.

Miscellaneous

• Modified the flashing effect on braindances to reduce the risk of inducing epileptic symptoms. The effect has been smoothed out, and the frequency and intensity of the flashes have been reduced.

PC

• Switching the default language in the game settings now correctly updates the language in your Steam client.

Consoles

However, there is some bad news regarding this patch. On the project's official forum, some players are complaining that the game fails to launch after the 1.04 update. But judging by these reports, the issue is currently limited to the PC version.
