Key changes and improvements for the turn-based mode in the first game are as follows. First, the number of actions per turn is determined by the character's speed and recovery time. Additionally, 'free actions'—which were criticized for being potentially exploitable in the sequel—are now restricted; these include weapon swapping and drinking potions. Furthermore, to suit the original game's design of facing large groups of enemies, the 'lethality' has been increased to ensure combat concludes more quickly. Players can toggle between real-time and turn-based modes via the options menu.
