It's what I'm thinking as well, just wanted to make sure. If that is indeed the case then it would be a better sell to refer to it as end of Chapter 1 for example. That way it's less confusing and doesn't give the impression that the main story is a short one.
Yeah, at first I was a bit shocked too, then thought they may be talking only about this first part
I like your idea about traveling around to find more help.
It would be really cool to have Maple as a human-sized pixie for a quest and have her taste a bit of human life while disguised as a normal woman (with the MC getting a heart stroke every time her wings start to slip off the disguise)
Speaking of Pixie Sex, I have to admit, I was amused the the scene in Long Live the Princess, when MC shrunk down to Belle's size and he came in her. When his returned to normal size, so did his semen, turning Belle into a bottle rocket.
No. You probably won't be able to do the main quests simultaneously and will have to finish one before starting the other (ideally, the end of one will lead to the beginning of the other). But you guys need to bear in mind that these are just ideas we have right now based on notes that often change during the planning phase of each release. The only thing that I can speak of with some degree of certainty is the next update.
I won't say all, but the majority of them will have scenes. And thank you for your kind words about Chestnut.
Well, one doesn't exclude the other. You can make the MC to travel the whole world in the main quest without any problems, but still design complex, creative quests everywhere, which then extend over several locations. Every now and then it's not bad at all to get lost in detail before going to the next location.

Hi everybody.
First of all, thank you to everyone who commented on last week's report or sent us messages, expressing the wish that we don't crunch and keep taking Sundays off. We appreciate all the kindness and promise you that we're going to take care of our health, and whenever we feel we need a break, we will take it.
A second topic about which we have received several messages and questions is the Main Story. Some members were surprised that we said it might be concluded in three more updates, and so we want to make a few clarifications and answer some of the questions:
- Originally, we planned to have the MC travel all over the world to finish the Main Story. But after combining the main quest with Lana's progression in 0.5 (and the fact that we think it sort of works), we thought we could adopt a similar approach for the remaining updates of this main quest and instead of focusing on all of the new locations, try to reach a satisfactory end while unlocking scenes and advancing in relationship with the other two characters linked to it (i.e., Madeline and Serena).
- We still want the MC to travel all over the world, but we thought we could keep some of those locations for additional quests that expand over several updates (similar to the Main Story) and deal with additional problems/situations that occur after the conclusion of the current quest.
- On reflection, it was a bit premature to make that announcement because 1) we don't know if you will like the approach we have taken for 0.5. Perhaps you guys won't like how Lana's relationship progresses through the Main Story (i.e., entering the city and rescuing Madeline). 2) Lana's progression syncs well with the Main Story of 0.5, but the same may not be true for Madeline or Serena (regardless of our notes right now). 3) we want the game's Main Story to feel epic, and perhaps after we start planning the future content, we see that limiting it to three more updates doesn't transmit the feeling we're looking for.
- For us, keeping a high quality is our number one priority. We've worked too hard on this game to mess it up or rush it. The idea was to create more opportunities for creative quests (after the current main story is over), but if we see things don't work, we'll take whatever approach is best for the game.
- We cannot really speak with confidence of the content of any update until after the planning phase of that release (about a week into development - to see an example of the 0.4 plan, visit

Waaaait a minute. Now I realize the map kind of looks like Westeros. With a big icy mountain up north, green area in the middle and deserts in the south. And the current capitol is on the east coast as well. Hmmmmmm.
To be fair 99% of fantasy worlds have icy mountains up north, deserts in the south, and a green area in the middle.
And the 1% that don't are worlds focused on the southern hemisphere like Thedas or Eora, which reverse the pattern north-to-south.
As long as the game never does a season 8 on us, I'm fine with it.
