Steam PC Update:
To optimize the database further, character profiles have been moved to the save file system, persisting in the cloud. This change means that a couple things will need to be reassigned on your next log in:
- Counselor Perk and Clothing selections will have to be assigned again.

- Turned intro volume down.
