BUGS, BUGS EVERYWHERE!
I was playing around earlier and decided to try and get a lichen as big as possible.
After killing it, I realised that it dropped nothing. Zero. It also seemed to only have one core inside it when I exploded it to bits, instead of the 12 or so it absorbed. I'm not sure if that's intentional, but I am a big fan of seeing these creatures splatter and I was a tad disappointed in it's lack of splatteriness as well as chunks.
This was also true for the lesser form, the one before it can grow spikes out of the ground. It dropped nothing.
What it did do... Is disappoint me.
Another, possibly more serious bug was that it took until after this update for textures to be found missing and downloaded.
I had no textures for a lot of things and maybe I'm wondering if the reason my shadows are flickery (which seemed to improve a little after the update) is because I don't have all the data I need to display them properly.
Missing textures showed up as white instead of the texture error, the missing textures were on the Alchemy machines and on all half height separators/walls.
I'm not sure if they were always missing and just added in the last update or if I was missing them this whole time, I couldn't tell you. But it did seem pretty serious to me that files were missing at the time.
I didn't see anything in the release notes, so some clarification on this would be nice.
There's also a bug where if you switch weapons while running, the weapon will be very tiny until you stop running or do something else.
Not important, but very funny.
And another more recent bug, where I can do this.
I got hit up near a wall while holding the totem and it floated up in the air. I could still pick it up... But why would anybody want to do that when they can take awesome pictures instead?
At first I thought it was a Giant Totem because I couldn't see it when I first got hit (it looked like it disappeared), so when I came back around the corner things got a little freaky...
You can also do this with Golden Keys and the Vaati statues. I might have to get a picture of me and my suicidal buddy Tortodrone next to a giant key some time soon.

Nope, these came back because I fixed a bug that was specific to your graphics card/drivers. I just forgot to mention it in the release notes. If the textures were actually missing, you'd see the error texture.
