I haven't had anything break with the recent patch minus minor mob madness which is completely manageable.

On the subject of them going on vacation i think Ryzilyn is right.
There is a lot more to this than just "dropped a patch and flew the coop"
Quite frankly i think its good and i highly doubt its going to be some epic break, especially given that they've likely been working this entire time in lockdown too where others have been at home.
