The release is January 1st, right? I am not sure if Sel moved that date or not to be earlier or later by a day for last year's new year's release

Chapter 4. We've just had a reset. Unsure if there was a season change to go with it, things seem kinda half baked in the sandbox at the moment. Probably going to be chapter 4 for at least a year, maybe more if the promise of all girls having sex before dark route starts is true.
Resets mark the midway point or transition point of chapters, so we're in the back half of chapter 4 now, and while it probably won't take a full year, it'll eat up most of 2025.

Dark Route doesn't start until Chapter 6, though, so there's no hurry to cram all the missing girls into Chapter 4.

You get the update when I'm done with the current act for PoE2
///Beep boop... Analyzing post... Analyzing post... Analysis complete!
///Printing observations below.

1 :: Selebus is the type to spend Christmas morning on F95. Sad!
2 :: Claim in post erroneous. Selebus would never damage his pristine reputation or delay his beloved game to play another game frivolously. Release will be on schedule regardless of POE2 playing.
2.5 :: USER will note that previous claims have been made and not followed through. He is running low on witty material.
3 :: Another instance of Selebus almost exclusively playing flavor of the month normie-core games. What's up with that? Beep boop.

Shieet I thought people said 4 was harem 5 was dark route and 6 was purity routes, and 4 was just going to be mad bloated to fit the promised sex in it.

I think Chapter 4 is going into 2026. There is no break in December which means no event chain to end the chapter. Unless Sel decides to cram as much story progression into the second half of updates.

The confusion probably derives from people not understanding what the purity routes are supposed to be.

So when we say we're at the middle of chapter 4 and there are 6 chapters (and that one should be the shorter one), one would assume we're way past 50%.

However, the purity routes are individual routes for each and every character that come after chapter 6 (the dark route). Even if it's one purity route per month, we're talking years here since, again, it's one per character.

The counterpoint would be that if you're interested in, say, Chika's ending, and that's the first purity route we get, then you can close the game by then and we're certainly closer to that (the first ending) than we are to the last purity route, or the true ending. By a matter of years. So we should be getting some closure sooner than the actual final closure of the true end.

35 Purity endings + 1 "true" ending. If one per month, 3 years from start to finish, just for the endgame, assuming no more breaks (unlikely). I suspect some characters won't get a full-update length ending, but others will get a longer-than-one-update, so it'll likely even out.

For example -- I'm not sure everyone wants an "Oops, all Osako" update. I'm not sure ANYONE wants an "Oops, All Osako" update.

Tbh, I think most of the side characters aren't getting long endings; Maybe they'll be the type of endings that'll be dropped while being dropped along with the "main" purity endings, he could probably change it up while writing it but we're still too far away from knowing certainly.

I assume some updates will include more than one ending. Also, IIRC, the True ending will be a full chapter.
