Finishing version 3 has our highest priority at the moment.
After that we will decide on how to proceed and what has highest priority.
Sorry for being somewhat vague about dates and priorities.
Our main overall goal is to make steps that improve XStoryPlayer significantly at each iteration.
That will always be a very important driver behind the decisions.
The characters personality/interaction and the movements e.g. still leave a lot of room for improvements.
Also the scene lighting (dynamic) can be improved a lot.
We also have obligations to the people who pledged/pre-ordered the next version.
So all in all it is a complex balance in keeping everybody (as well as us) happy, now and in the future.
In the mean time we hope the mods made by the community will make the waiting more bearable.
And we will do our best to support making new mods as best we can.
