While I fully agree in general, there is a need for the game to have an actual story and the tech update is certainly needed, too. Though I'd actually agree that they probably just could have cut characters like Tina and Melonia to save at least some time.
I think we all agree that it would have been better if he had started to working on the tech update after the first part of the main story to then split the rest of the main story into 3 or 4 small updates to be added between character updates.
So we'd have had 0.20. -> tech update -> Ronda -> main story part two -> Annie -> Main story part three -> Judith -> Main story part 4 or so.
Then again, I think everybody is looking forward for it to be done and then we'll really not much but story updates, which is also not that bad.
