Yes, sorry. Still working on the update. I won't give another estimate since I already fumbled one, but it'll be a big update(4 scenes).
I'm making a town for this version and it felt too raw to release it in parts, so I'll basically be putting out two versions worth of stuff at once. The game was too rough so far and I want it to be a good experience this time so I'm cooking a bit longer.
Take your time. I honestly think your first real content update (Forest) with all the new characters was already five steps too ambitious.
You need to take the time now and fix the mess and slowly expand your game. That takes time.
I'd preferred it if you let the MC travel with the Dancer for a little while more and not make it so needlessly complicated from the get-go. I understand you want to go down the MGQ Paradox route, but you are really causing stress for yourself by overcomplicating things. You should focus on things that can meaningfully enhance and extend gameplay, like longer dungeons, harder battles, farming stuff, and slowly add scenes and new characters.
Adding two new characters with Dozens of skills is way too ambitious, imo.
