The Witness Fixes for HD Graphics

By Rebecca Smith,
We have found workarounds for the driver crashes that were happening with certain Intel HD Graphics chips.

HD Graphics 3000 probably still crashes a little but, but it is much more rare and should enable people to play the game pretty reasonably (say, typically a crash after 60-90 minutes of play).

We have instituted a number of other good changes in this build as well -- content tweaks/fixes around the island, as well as a safeguard to savegames that should prevent them from being corrupted if the game crashes while saving, or power to the computer gets killed, or whatever.

If this goes well for everyone then in a couple of days we will promote it to the main build.

At home, with a variety of PCs and consoles on hand from which to choose, starting with a ZX Spectrum, games are never far away there either. However, as you're not supposed to have an unhealthy obsession with just a single subject, she also likes to read and dream about owning her own tribe of minions. She'll occasionally go outside.
