The main quest will continue in the next update. We're going back to Earth to search the newly added Cronus City. You will encounter two factions vying for control over a central tower that was once home to one of Earth's largest corporations. After choosing a side, you'll begin taking over the tower from the monsters and creeps that now call it home. What secrets does this tower-dungeon hold? Will you finally find Xarr? Note: Combat will be optional as always with the main quest.
I want to try changing the combat system in this update. Something of this scale may warrant its own entire update. If so, I'll push it back for later. I know what I want to do, but I rather not give too much info right now before I know what all is possible.
The holidays are soon approaching. Updates might be affected due to me having less time to work on things. There will still be updates even if they end up being smaller.
I just finished going over the main quest story line again. I've come to the conclusion that some of the stuff I had planned for after Earth was actually repetitive and seemed like filler. I don't want the main quest to be boring, so I'm going to cut some previously planned content. I can always rewrite the concepts and move them to the post game later on. Due to this, the main quest sits at roughly 3-4 more major segments. I should be able to do 1 segment per main quest update.
Now let's move on to the new road-map. With the main quest wrapping up soonish, the major missing features need to be addressed. Anything I've mentioned before that's not listed is still planned. These are just the things I'm going to work on first. As always, things may get moved around. Nothing is final.
Nov - Main quest takes us to Earth as noted above.
Dec - Jobs update. An alternative way to make money. There will be unique outfits and scenes.
Jan - Main quest update. Lots of spoilers to be written here. Too bad.
Feb - Another big scene update. Seemed to have gone well last time. There's still plenty missing. The focus will be missing scenes, preg variants, and possibly some tattoo additions/variants.
Mar - Main quest update. This one has us going to.. Nah, no spoilers.
Apr - School clubs. Probably won't get everything done in 1 update. This is also the prerequisite to the new romance NPCs.
May - Possibly the end of the main quest. It may take 2 updates, though.
Once the main quest is done: From this point on there's two options. Either focus entirely on the missing content and add it all then work on the post game, or alternate the two like I'm currently doing with the main quest. I'll ask you all your preference once we're here.
Last thing to note is the post game that I haven't really talked about much. There will be several side quests that unlock upon completion of the main story. *Some spoilers beyond this point.* This will include: Story continued for some popular characters from CM (including the Mistress), What happened to Iptria and the after effects, The story of the dwarves from CM, and more.
I know, I write too much. You should see the MQ dialogs before I cut them down..
