Aaaaah maaaaan. Not you too with the damn "AI". It does nothing but look unappealing and cheapen the final product. The fucking studio lightning it puts on everything is so easy to see through and it immediately ruins the entire picture.
What do you mean by "mix?"
v0.89.8 (Seasons 1-4) is one part of Taffy Tales.
v0.95.7 (Season 5) is the sequel to the other part.
You don't load one into the other. The content of each are completely separate.

That's what "sequel" means. View attachment 3055704
I am completely at a loss of what you are attempting to figure out. Let me try this a different way:
v0.89.8 (Seasons 1-4) is the first 140+ days in the story (even if it takes a player only 100 days or 2000 days in game to finish).
v0.95.7 (Season 5) starts the day after v0.89.8 ends (officially, it starts at day 145 or so of the story).
Is Tiffany supposed to be renamed "Sister"? Because, if you just give her an ordinary name, you get stuff like "you're Peter's Tiffany" which is something nobody would say irl. But if you name her "Sister", then you end up calling her "Sister" all the time, which also nobody does, especially when they're not her brother. That whole thing doesn't make sense.
Best incest hideup I've seen so far is in "A Town Uncovered". At the beginning the game asks who these people are to you, you type "Mother" and "Sister", a PSA appears that they don't advocate incest, but then the game is patched and your sister is even your twin. Too bad the art sucks and it's buggy af.

When Uberpie put out the first release, the game was called "Family Tales" with a school setting and Mary was "Mom" and Tiffany was "Sister". Then Patreon told Uberpie he needed to make changes or he would not be allowed to promote it on their site. So, it became "Taffy Tales" with a college setting and he defaulted things to Mary and Tiffany, adding the option to rename the women. Pretty much he did a Find/Replace poorly (as is his modus operandi).
Yes, it is as incongruous as someone being on this site for 4 years and all 17 of their posts are in the most recent 3 weeks, all about 1 game.

I know about the WHY since I started playing Summertime Saga a couple of years ago. I was just bamboozled about the HOW, although, like you said, their "modus operandi" is being lazy about everything programming. So much in this game is really annoying, from bugs (I had to play Season 3 (the Mary update?) like 4 or 5 times to make it work properly) over the grammar (at least every second sentence has a typo. Spell check exists!) to storyparts that suddenly just disappear (do we just ignore the chest, powertool and knocking Mary unconcious stuff that happened in Season 3?)
I think they playtest it like, once, and then think:

I very nearly agree with your playtesting assumption.
There is no "Season 3" at this time. Simply Seasons 1-4 are encapsulated in v0.89.8. The new version convention is being reverse engineered and I doubt Uberpie has made any definitive designations of which update goes to which season.
The releases are:
v0.95.7 (Season 5) - a so-called mega update -
v0.89.8 (Seasons 1-4) which includes content for:
v0.89.8 (mega update)
v0.85.1 (major bugfix of v0.82.4)
v0.82.4 (mega update)
v0.68.2 (mega update)
v0.47.5 (mega update)
v0.22.0
v0.17.0
v0.14.3
v0.11.2
v0.10.5
v0.9.2
V0.8.1
v0.7.1
v0.6.1
v0.5.1
v0.01
And then the standalones that aren't in any of the above:
Maybe each of the mega updates are the seasons, which would be a logical assumption - except that v0.82.4/v0.85.1 was mostly content added to the beginning of the story line with revisions and additional characters and little at the end. So is that Season 1 and then v0.47.5 content (and everything not changed by v0.82.4/v0.85.1) is Season 2? Or is v0.22.0 Season 1 with the inclusion of revamped content from v0.82.4/v0.85.1?
Until there is actual demarcations of what each of the first four seasons are - I think it would be best to not attempt to use season head-canons as canon in the thread. Simply refer scenes by their updates if known or use the section headers in the gallery (even though v0.82.4/v0.85.1 isn't even referenced in the gallery for v0.82.4 through v0.89.8 because very little was added in terms of lewd scenes - it was mostly creating a fake sandbox environment that is still faulty and rewrites).
I just assumed it was Season 3 (where you can play as Mary and the MC), because after that came the animation update, which I assumed was Season 4. But you understood what I meant.

I guessed. Actually, the MC switch is from v0.47.5, not v0.68.2 - which could most likely be either Season 1 or 2, depending upon how Uberpie breaks it out. It would be a tough fit to make it Season 3. The intro update/animation update was v0.82.4/v0.85.1. This all goes back to my original point to stick with using the version numbers until Uberpie unfucks it, if ever.
The problem is that there are many people complaining about the NTR.
There was also Mary with Darnell in the gym, but there was only one thing and you could choose that option for NTR or for not NTR (like with Danny). in the game. There hasn't been a big shout out about his scenes yet or have I missed something?
Most of the 90% who complain are not Patreon members. I've been supporting for 3 years and I only complain when there's something really wrong like bugs or there's something wrong with the content (like art or dialogue).
But everyone is upset just because of the NTRNetorare (jap. 寝取られ) thing since this update (Season 5)!
It wasn't until July that I realized it was AI art. But since I've now checked, the maker already made an attempt on January 2023 and didn't mention that he was using this art because he knew what would happen...
I also wrote a message about praise and criticism etc. When I wrote afterwards that a new graphics engine was used, he said: "I changed my style, that there were people who wanted to see something new from the character and thought I'll try it like that and I'll have a reinforcement for my team to do it (he didn't tell me any names who he was, he wasn't even a user name, he wanted to give it to me for the prize)
The best thing was when I wrote again in October and said: "This art is interesting. But I also agree that it is AI art?"
After that no one wrote me a message and suddenly Danny no longer has 6 fingers but 5 fingers! I'm sure Danny Finger corrected my question?
He has blocked me ever since. The truth hurts, but it's fair! Of course I'm still his subscriber because of the game!
