Played this game a long time ago, around the middle of book 2. It was a fantastic product so I've decided to wait for the final version to play the complete experience.

Could someone help me out, is the version (0.9) representing the current completeness to the developer plans to finish the game with the next major update?

I see some comments about burnout within the dev teem, no problem from my side been there also in my job, wishing the best to the developers, so I can wait, I am really just curious that do we know whether it is planned to finish the product with the next update or not yet?

Thank you all!

The version number is indicative of how close we are to 8 complete routes, but bear in mind the decimal. The latest route (Book 4 Slave) ended on version 0.8.7d, meaning it took 7 major updates to finish it. The current and last route, Book 4 Love, only just started in September. I expect it to take at least the same amount of updates until it's done.

Book 4 Slave Route took 15 months to develop (Mar 19 - Jun 20) and since Book 4 Love Route does not re-use the Slave Route's location and mechanics like it usually does, we're probably looking at a development time at least that long, especially now that the coder is late again and the artist is making a filler Halloween minigame just like last year.
And since I don't think they're in a rush to finish this last route, I'm just gonna arbitrarily add three more months of development time and say it'll take 18 months.

And then there's the Epilogue, to be made after this final route is finished to tie up the story. It will probably be a single build and take, say, three months. That puts us at a total of 21 months of development remaining, starting from last June.

So according to my bullshit numbers, the full game will be released in March 2022. Mark your calendar!!

There are 2 options to go with Azula at the end of the love route: As 1st choice - and she'll do that 180 turn but then gradually undo it - or go for some tour of the world and return to cure Azula, step-by-step. This one is true redemption. She totally changes, ask for forgiveness from the people she abused and getting all softy-lovey-dovey. Really heartwarming - that exactly was my fantasy for years!
The end is heartbreaking though, be forewarned.

Yeah based on what I've seen now I think that I played through, saw the 180 was mostly unchanged (with a few small writing alterations) and quit again before I got to the part where it actually changed and she softened. Was very happy to see that the "Go to the Avatar Route" ends up being an actual Love Route ending; very satisfying indeed.

Optimist =) With this level of loyalty of donation hamsters patrons and coder being so sassy - it easily could easily be twice longer =) Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining about "longer it takes - more content we will see" - but I still think that devs brazenly milking patrons with that kind of delays and other "burnout" shit. At least, even if they have some difficulties - they've could make some kind of "report" on regular basis to patrons, about what's precisely happening now, without 3-page graphomancy filled with silly puns (all meaning of which is - "I don't know what coder doing, I don't know when he will finish", and btw seems like they live in the 18th century, and devs have not IM and corresponding by pigeon mail). Not to mention - even considering that last update was relatively good - there is much room to make improvements quality wise.

RealKorra About the FET continuation you mentioned. Are you thinking about following where the story left off or creating a whole new story? I'm asking, because I believe that starting a new story makes it possible to explore the relationships between the characters without being stuck with what happened earlier. Korra is one of my favorite characters and I feel like we've had a lot of missed opportunities on the slave route.
