Patch is live on GOG.

From Steam forum:

Patch V1.0.1016 is available now, and fixes commonly cited issues. We'd also like to share what we're working on.

Hello everyone,

We have our first patch ready, and available to download now for Blade Runner: Enhanced Edition. The patch contains the following fixes and improvements:

Added missing audio and text localization (video localization to come in a later patch). Set your language in the Game Options
Added missing subtitle credits
Fixed possible deadlocks and memory leaks
Fixed various menus not responding to resolution changes
Fixed menu sliders sound loop when dragged with the mouse
Fixed Borderless Window setting on PC not sticking
Added Game Option to disable widescreen borders
Added Game Option to change in-game brightness
Fixed McCoy not being able to walk freely in certain rooms (eg. Outside Runciter’s)
Fixed subtitles not displaying during outtakes
Fixed outtakes not playing at 60fps
Fixed fog not rendering correctly in certain rooms (eg. Chinatown)
Fixed McCoy clipping into vehicles in RC03
Fixed green flicker during transitions
Fixed items not displaying after loading a savegame
Fixed Esper crash when zooming out via the preview thumbnail
Fixed various KIA issues
It used to be difficult to tell which page you were on in the kia, now the currently selected kia page should be called out in the top row of buttons.
The kia "cursor hover" state was not different enough for you to tell where your cursor was, now there's been an additional pass on it to make it much more obvious.
Individual clue privacy when using the kia privacy addon was not obvious, now every private clue has a unique icon next to it, along with a background highlight.
Enhanced graphics for KIA upgrade and suspect silhouettes
Keyboard shortcuts can no longer open the KIA during cutscenes
Fixed incorrect colors in localized subtitles
Fixed subtitles changing interface language
Fixed audio volume changing during scene transitions
Player personality (conversation choices) can be changed ingame
Difficulty achievements are retroactive.

Thanks for being patient with us while we deal with these issues. We'd also like to share what we have planned for the next patch:

A toggle between the original and our Enhanced Edition videos,
Video localization for the intro, and outtakes,
Improvements to the User Interface and Menus,
Improvements to make longer KIA clues legible
Improvements to the controls, making them more obvious and consistent across the game
Improvements to pathfinding
Improvements to the Police Maze

We hope you enjoy the update, and our sneak peak into what's to come. Thank you.

Of course it's not live as an DRM-free offline installer. GO figures. So DRM-ed GOG Galaxy One Client To Rule Them All Abomination©®™ is finally taking over, one game patch/update at the time. We old folks, only deserve to die, and we will comply, SOON©®™

I know it sounds paradox but without Galaxy we would might not even have this part of the patch yet because without Galaxy the devs would have to send the files to GOG (which are undderstaffed as we know) and GOG would have to test the build before uploading it for everybody to use. With Galaxy (or rather by using the Galaxy API) the devs are able to upload their builds directly without GOG being involved at all. The offline installers will then be created autoamtically from the same files (again without anybody needing to do anything ... if everything works as intended). In other words: it is pretty safe that the offline installers will arrive in a few days at least.

I am a fan of the offlne installers as well, so I can understand why you are angry and why you feel neglected but I also know how long updates often take if they have to go through GOG (some devs still don't use the API) and so I am glad that devs have this option.

So in short; you say that I should go to Steam and just buy the game there, because I will never use Galaxy and obviously updates for this game will be many and I will always have to wait days/weeks/months/forever to get updated Offline installers!?

4,99 € down the drain; this is the last time!

OK, lesson learned; now back to my TOTAL boycott of GOG, which now lasts more than two (2) years!

That's not what I said at all. I only said that Galaxy is helping getting offline installers faster here no matter if you actually are using it or not.

The offline installer and patch are available.

No support for 21:9?????

Has the promised Update #2 happened yet?

There has been no update #2 for the Enhanced Edition as of yet. I think last I've read of it, Nightdive said it will be released when it's ready. So, I guess it's not ready yet.

No worries. Thanks.

I guess I will continue to hold off buying then.

Update 1.2 was released today.

So is the GOG installer version of the game updated as well?
Any reviews?

For the reviews you should probably check the most recent reviews on Steam (GOG has just one after the update).

Apparently it's still subpar, but some people say the ScummVM version is best.
Is the ScummVM implemented in the enhanced edition?

I am not sure if I understand the question, but I hope the following clarifies the situation somewhat for you:

The Enhanced Edition as sold on GOG (and on Steam) also incudes the ScummVM version-- speficially for GOG I think it still needs to be installed and launched separately ie. not from a menu in the Enhanced Edition.

The ScummVM version is a re-implementation of the engine for Blade Runner with bug fixes, QoL improvements and a restored content mode (still WIP!) -- it is completely distinct from what Nightdive Studios did with the Enhanced Edition.

Apart from the subtitles which is a joint work (ScummVM team and community members did the English, French and Spanish transcripts and Nightdive Studios provided the Italian and German), everything else was developed separately.
