Trivia

• Upon release, the mission Sleeves Wet with Bloody Tears had a bug where Folamh's dialogue "It's no matter. What do you think you'll accomplish?" needed the player to resize the game window (or enter and exit full-screen mode) in order to load the Continue button.
  • Players sometimes needed to do this multiple times to fix this dialogue box.
