Stellar Blade received a day 1 patch that censored a few outfits and some of the gore. X users are using the tag #FreeStellarBlade to voice their concerns with censorship and false advertising. As we were promised an uncensored game. It is our hope that they will issue a new update that will reverse the censorship. Until then, I'll continue to try playing the game unpatched. Grummz has a lot of posts with further information regarding this: https://twitter.com/Grummz You can also follow me on X as well here: https://twitter.com/NateWolfKira I am using a physical copy that I installed with the PS5 offline. To keep it unpatched, you need to: 1. Install it while the PS5 is disconnected from the internet. 2. The game has to be started and played while the PS5 is disconnected from the internet. 3. The PS5 has to remain offline indefinitely or else you'll have to uninstall and re-install the game offline each time. You might be able to reconnect to the internet after your play session for other games/apps for a time, however: 1. You'll need to remove the disc before connecting to the internet (and before starting another app/game). 2. You'll need to ensure auto update settings are turned off before connecting to the internet. 3. If you restart the console at any time, the game will update upon next connection to the internet. Regardless of settings or actions taken. If at any time the PS5 begins to download the update. You're locked out of unpatched game, even if you dismiss the update. As once that update is flagged, the game will not start without the update. If the download finishes, it will auto-install upon next boot up of the game. You'll need to start all over by uninstalling the game. Then disconnect from the internet, then re-install the game offline. Your saves should still be intact, so long as you don't delete those too.

I did some grinding and went back to collect some items off-camera before resuming. You could consider this "part 3 continued" since I ended last episode early.

While off-camera, I finished collecting all the memories, documentation, health/beta/tumbler upgrades that I could possibly get at this point in the game. Last episode I finished all the fishing and unlocked the Ocean Maid outfit, which Eve will wear this episode. Please note: some of the memories and documents were glitched and unable to obtain while unpatched. I had to install the patch to finish collecting the documents and memories. I've uninstalled and re-installed the game to continue playing unpatched.

Part 12 continued after re-installing the game. I stopped to backup the save which started the update. I insisted I complete my first playthrough unpatched.

I discovered that your Data Bank may reflect the incorrect Memorysticks that you picked up while playing in unpatched 1.0. This may be related to loading the Demo save in unpatched 1.0. The demo runs off version 1.1 which may be the reason. If you apply the v1.2 patch and load your save. The correct Memorsticks will now show. I tried re-saving my game in 1.2 then loading it in unpatched 1.0 and the Memorstick entires are incorrect again. Be aware of this when you're trying to check which Memorsticks you're missing. I've collected all the memory sticks you can in Eidos 7 before arriving in Xion (you have to complete side-quests to get access to the last 5 memory sticks which start after you reach Xion). I hope this helps anyone who have been trying to play unpatched. Especially, if you started with loading your demo save.
