Please fix the enemy pop in
I've picked this game up again with the new DLC (I have it on the EGS, sue me), but there is now awful enemy pop in where enemies will appear right in front of me. I've been caught out a few times when it looks like there is one enemy in a camp so I run and and as I'm attacking 3-4 enemies just appear out of nowhere and gank me. I've also had enemies appear behind me and back stabbed me that definitely weren't there before. In the Monument of Ash the big knight enemies pop in particularly badly, right in front of you they just appear.

It's hurting the experience of an otherwise great game, so thought I'd raise it here (not sure if the devs read here, but hopefully they do). Thanks.

No, seems to be random

It's now 2023 and nobody cares apparently. Greedy people got their money. +1 for fail gaming.

I just got the game on sale and I experienced this in the first encampments.

Welp, 2025 and a sequel announcement but this never got fixed. Not exactly filling me with confidence for 2.
2025, still the same. :(
