EVERYTHING THAT CHANGED · LAST 24 HOURS

The full notebook. Forty-one things moved. Most do not need you.

Sherpa keeps a wider record than the dispatch surfaces. Below: what is in the logbook today, grouped by whether it is worth your time.

The loud thing today — Rust's wipe is holding past the spike.

Wipe days always spike. This one held into the second day, which is rarer than it looks. Worth tracking through the weekend.

A quiet patch day — except for FromSoft showing off.

Two minor patches on the list. Skip both. The FromSoft demo is not for this audience, but the dispatch is noting it because the engine work matters to anyone running long campaigns.

The studios were chatty. Most of it was nothing.

Six dev posts today. Two are worth a read; the rest are press-release energy in dev-blog clothing.

Things to scroll past — included because you asked Sherpa to track them.

Three leak-shaped objects today. Sherpa would skip all three; you may want to know they exist. None are verified. None are sold as breaking.

That is the full notebook. Tomorrow's evening dispatch will surface the few of these that matter and explain why. The rest can stay in the log.

Read the dispatch. Skip the rest. Catch you tomorrow.
