Perhaps the most important update today is a new save and exit option. Those who are unwilling or unable to use the unlimited save mod can now save and quit the game without having to find a bed or drink an alcoholic beverage. Picking locks has also been improved in this patch along with pickpocketing.
A look at the full patch notes can be found below. So far, it looks like the patch is being met with a mixed reception. While it does fix a lot of issues, there are still some bugged quests that players are encountering. As I mentioned in my Kingdom Come: Deliverance review, the game is full of bugs and various jank. While this patch is a step in the right direction, I'd still suggest waiting for a couple of additional patches to come along.
