New difficulty modes:

• [p]Story Mode - for those wanting to follow along the story without having to worry too much about dying again and again... and again.[/p][/*]
• [p]Blood, Sweat and Tears - for those wanting an extra challenge.[/p][/*]
• [p]Custom Mode - where you can adjust the experience and include modifiers like no more ammunition at traders, turn off curse lifting, blessings and more! [/p][/*]
• [p]One new achievement related to Blood, Sweat and Tears.[/p][/*]
• [p]A special “victory” item awaits those who battle through Blood, Sweat and Tears to forever remind them of their difficult deed.[/p][p][/p][/*]

New Game+ is here as well, with its own modifiers!

Dare to combine it with one of the new difficulty modes?

New quests:

• [p]Jim is suspicious of the new basement in the saloon, but he also has another big job on his mind.[/p][/*]
• [p]The shaman may require assistance once more in another attempt to right the wrongs.[/p][/*]

• [p]A brand new NPC may offer two wild, new quests that will take player across whole map[/p][p][/p][/*]

These modes and quests will most certainly need balancing...

so we're gonna need feedback from y'all!

Bug fixes:

• [p]Traits screen is now back to how it looked prior to 4.3.0[/p][/*]
• [p]Fixed a rare issue in which certain saves from Chapter 1 could never load properly[/p][/*]
• [p]Fixed the Occult Mask to now apply a full Curse properly on player death[/p][/*]

• [p]Fixed bug that was preventing keybindings for staying for some users[/p][p][/p][/*]

Improvements:
