We recently released Defender's Quest DX on PS4, XB1, and PSVita, and that required some major performance optimizations. We are now rolling those back into the PC version of the game. Let us know if there's any bugs and regressions.

This is the last major patch for DQ1, but I will be happy to make any necessary hotfixes for lingering bugs.
