  <!-- How to Read Patch Notes -->
  <div class="section-card bg-paliaCard rounded-2xl shadow-card p-6">
    <div class="flex items-center gap-2 mb-3"><i class="fa fa-file-text-o text-paliaPrimary text-xl"></i><h2 class="text-xl font-bold">📄 Understanding Official Patch Notes</h2></div>
    <p>Patch notes are released on the official Palia website, Discord, and launcher. They typically contain:</p>
    <ul class="list-disc pl-5 mt-2 space-y-1">
      <li><strong>New content</strong> – zones, quests, animals, furniture, events.</li>
      <li><strong>Balance changes</strong> – skill XP rates, item values, recipe adjustments.</li>
      <li><strong>Bug fixes</strong> – quest blockers, performance issues, visual glitches.</li>
      <li><strong>Quality of life</strong> – UI improvements, hotkey changes, settings additions.</li>
      <li><strong>Known issues</strong> – acknowledged bugs that are being worked on.</li>
    </ul>
    <p class="mt-2 text-sm">To quickly scan a patch: look for “New” and “Fixed” headings. If you’re experiencing a bug, check “Known Issues” first before reporting.</p>
    <div class="bg-paliaPrimary/10 p-2 rounded mt-2 text-sm">💡 Patch notes are usually posted on <strong>Tuesdays or Wednesdays</strong>. Major updates happen every 4–6 weeks, with smaller hotfixes in between.</div>
  </div>

  <!-- Developer Q&A Highlights (Community Responses) -->
  <div class="section-card bg-paliaCard rounded-2xl shadow-card p-6">
    <div class="flex items-center gap-2 mb-3"><i class="fa fa-comments text-paliaPrimary text-xl"></i><h2 class="text-xl font-bold">🎙️ Notable Developer Q&A Answers</h2></div>
    <p>Singularity 6 frequently answers player questions on Discord and live streams. Below are the most impactful clarifications:</p>
    <ul class="list-disc pl-5 space-y-2">
      <li><strong>Will there be more romanceable NPCs?</strong> – Yes, the team plans to add more romance options, including some currently non‑romanceable characters (e.g., Tish, Zeki). No ETA.</li>
      <li><strong>Is there a plan for mounts?</strong> – Not currently; fast travel and gliders are the primary movement tools, but the team may revisit if demand is high.</li>
      <li><strong>Can we expect player housing upgrades?</strong> – Yes, more room types, larger plot sizes, and new building sets are in development.</li>
      <li><strong>Will there be PvP?</strong> – No. Palia is strictly cozy, cooperative, no combat or PvP planned.</li>
      <li><strong>Are there plans to add more skills?</strong> – Possibly. “Scavenging” was a test; more may come if it fits the cozy theme.</li>
      <li><strong>Cross‑progression between PC and Switch is fully supported – any chance for mobile?</strong> – Not announced, but the engine could support mobile in theory. No official plans.</li>
    </ul>

        <li><strong>More temple dungeons</strong> – At least one more temple after the three main ones, focused on “time” or “memory” mechanics.</li>
        <li><strong>Advanced farming systems</strong> – Greenhouses, sprinklers, and crop mutations (hybrid crops).</li>
        <li><strong>Pet companions</strong> – Cosmetic pets that follow you (not functional, like a cat or bird).</li>
        <li><strong>Weather system expansion</strong> – Fog, wind, and seasonal events beyond rain and snow.</li>
