In software 1.0, it means a game is ready for release, so it must be complete. 1.0 doesn't mean an incomplete game with 10 minor patches. Anyway, chapter 23 wouldn't be 0.23.X, it should be 1.0.X.But the chapter 22 would be 0.22.X because the big difference between both is that the first is a complete release and the second an incomplete release.
That is assuming the game finally ends with 23 chapters, but even if there are less chapters, the final version should be 1.0.X. If the game finally has only 15 chapters, he should continue releasing 0.7.X, 0.8X.... 0.14.X and then 1.0.X.
And in case the dev finish the game in the next patch the next one will be 1.0.X too, because 1.0 means complete, not patch 10.

...i think i broke something. the game keeps using "wards" or "charges" despite the truestory patch. probably shouldnt have put the walkthrough hack on top of it, but i'd like to know what my decisions change since I too am a victim of seeing seemingly harmless game responses that ended in a massacre.

The WT mod has nothing to do with the incest patch. You probably didn't install it correctly.
I daresay you have thoroughly convinced me to never partake of this debauchery known as "versioning". I like my numbers real and decimal, thank you very much.
If you want a little more ensight about this just remember that in patch versioning usually is in the format X.Y.Z in wich X means major version, Y minor version and Z patch version.
A classic example would be the game World of Warcraft. This game has initially a Beta with multiple incomplete minor versions until reaching patch 0.12. After that the game was released to players with patch 1.1 (1.0 was available on CD but some changes were improved before the final release) and then the game was expanded with minor patches until patch 1.12
After that the first expansion of the game was released on patch 2.0 and since then every new expansion changes the major version and minor update patches in between increasing the minor or patch version (depending on the size) with the game currently on patch 10.2.6 more than 20 years later becuse the game has received 9 expansions, althought since the first expansion none has received more than 4 or 5 minor patches before a new expansion is released.

Version numbers are neither - they're imaginary (a little math nerd humor for ya there.)
"i" have no idea what you are talking about.
Masterpiece? lol, ok.if I become a father when the time arrives, will I still wanna play this masterpiece???
People really need to know what a true "masterpiece" is, instead of throwing that word around just for the things they like. And the world doesn't need anymore kids/people. Keep overflowing this crappy planet with people, see what happens.
Oh it gets worse. The major.minor.patch scheme is only the most commonly used one, there's all kinds of other systems and there are no universal rules that has to be adhered to, only what the developer feels is suitable. Minecraft, for instance, went from version 1.8 during beta back down to 1.0 during full release. Sometimes there's mixing of letters too, sometimes it makes sense and sometimes it only makes sense to the dev. Versioning is the closest we'll ever get to Chaotic Lawful

This is also what I believe. What the world needs right now is clean heavy industry (it is possible) and about 1.5 billion less people.

Have you seen the world demographics recently? Exept for Sub-Saharan Africa the world population is declining due to low bithrates. Countries like South Korea, Japan or Italy now have 1 child per 3 or 4 adulits. The world is doomed but not because of overpopulation, but on the opposite, due to dying out of the human kind because we stopped reproducing. We play porn games instead
Nope, That is inertial increase. Look for Total Births per Woman by county. That is the only number that matters. It has to be above 2.1 child per woman to ensure that population is stable or increasing. It means a man and a woman on average have 2 children. South Korea has 0.68 now. India has about 2. The only part of the world that is significantly higher is Sub-Saharan Africa and some odd small countries like Afhanistan.
And the population rates in Sub-Saharan Africa are also on the decline BTW. They are still well above 2.1 but still declining in the long term.

Meh ... none are super declining
there are billions on planet
we will not experience any negatives to any appreciable degree
they ^ will all severely outweighed by the other bad shit humans do to eco/bio/socio spheres
Clearly you haven't seen Idiocracy. Quantity is not the same as quality.
