It’s just a detail, but details matter a lot to us.
The game will now not start in the morning, but rather in the early evening, just because we want to properly switch from the intro to the real game. Of course, we can’t achieve that completely (for example, we can’t change the fact that the four friends wear the “wrong” armours in the intro; we will still give them the ones you know from the first games because we think that is better for the game’s atmosphere), but we can change the time of day. And as we have always found the step from the intro’s golden evening sky to the blue, bright morning light of the game’s beginning to be quite irritating, we changed it!
