First things first, apologies to anyone who likes Taygedo in Neverness to Everness. I don't. A lot of people don't, in fact, hence why today's news is good for most players - the latest update to the game allows you to mute Taygedo.
Hidden deep within the update notes ahead of NTE update 1.1, there's a line that says "add a toggle to mute Taygedo voice lines during story scenes". Ah, finally - although I've finished all of the quests that include him for now.
I can't explain it, but Taygedo's voice just absolutely grates on my nerves. Maybe it's because he only ever says his name, maybe it's because he featured so much in the main quest… helping him on his date doesn't feel like a main story quest vibe to me.
I'm not alone in the hate - here are some choice Reddit posts pointing out other people's distaste for the TV-shaped raccoon. The top comment on the last thread has now aged badly because we can now mute him.
Elsewhere in the update, we see Lacrimosa's release along with a new story (hopefully not featuring Taygedo too much), helpful teleport points in Pink Paws HQ and the Witch's House, and the ability to have auto-driving cars. I'm not sure if I'll use the last one, as I do enjoy causing havoc on the roads with my errant driving.
For more information, you can see our NTE banner and NTE event guides - and don't forget to grab the new NTE codes so you can get Lacrimosa, Chaos, or both.
