    Sorry, just now seeing this! Essentially there’s two different routes (up or down) you can take, with two different sets of regions, bosses, and story beats for each. The “down” path is entirely complete, and there’s two regions of the “up” path complete. So the entirety of the story isn’t there yet, but what’s there is very polished and there’s at least one major story arc complete. There are a couple characters that don’t have art yet and so they’re placeholders visually, but they’re fully voiced and the placeholders aren’t too out of place. They’ve published a more detailed roadmap that seems pretty reasonable for them to deliver. Overall it seems like 70% done and I don’t think what’s there is even going to change too much by the 1.0 release.

    As someone who’s skeptical of a lot of EA models, this is in my mind the right way to do it. I’ve played for 30 hours so far and haven’t finished the “down” path yet and I feel there’s still going to be a decent bit of content left after I do. Imo it was well worth $30 in its current state!
