ENCASED - PATCH 3, HOTFIX 1: Gamepad tweaks, critical bug fixes and cosmetics

Chatting with air ducts in subbasements?

Chatting with air ducts in subbasements?

If I remember correctly there is someone crawling around in that one.
But I guess they use "Dialogue" as in "interaction screen".

Ahhh yes, this is still on my list to play!! Let the updates continue to land.

I would wait for the next big patch 4, about combat balance, if you want the best experience. Well... if they get it right on the first update, it's a tricky thing to balance a ruleset and it may be prudent to wait even a little longer. I don't mind the current system though.

Oh no worries, I'll likely wait another few months, simply to be on the safe side. I've a couple games lined up already where I shouldn't have to worry about updates or additional content hitting.
