Issues fixed

Native resolution not available

On some aspect ratios (e.g. 16:10) the native desktop resolution may not be available in-game which results in blurry visuals.
Use borderless fullscreen windowed tools[2]
  1. Download a borderless fullscreen windowed tool like SRWE.
  2. Start the game and disable fullscreen mode.
  3. Switch to the tool and adjust the window size to the desktops fullscreen resolution.

Notes

Forcing a resolution must be done inside the main menu before loading a save game.
The cards in the main menu may still look blurry. This is fixed after the first loading screen.

Issues unresolved

Stuttering on enemies turn

During an enemies turn the framerate may drop until a card has been played.[2][3]
