Nope, there’s still one major chapter to go.

Wait! One Chapter To Go!? I thought we have at least 2. One to sort out what happened in chapter 4 and one where we face the final boss.

Sort of. Chapter 5 will likely be split in two releases.

While on the subject of chapters, is it possible to have a chapter 0 or a prologue in the future. I don't think chapter 1 does a good enough job to explain the world we're suddenly in. I'd even be happy with an introduction slideshow that said something like: "This world has vampires and monsters running about. Rinaldo was a legendary vampire hunter the killed the vampire queen. He's now deceased and vampire hunting organization is being led by his two daughters."

Bianca’s Diary takes place before the start of the game.

That's... not what I meant. I meant something that establishes the world and the characters more... "clearly" and not just dropping us in. I guess I mean like a tutorial, not to explain the gameplay, but to how the world works.

I'm not sure that's really necessary. Don't you have all that information by the end of chapter 1 anyway, or chapter 2 at the latest? Plus you don't want to dump all the lore on someone at once, since that breaks immersion and is often overwhelming.

The intention is to make the beginning feel snappy and introduce the world as the player plays.

Maybe some sort of intro cutscene? Just a quick "who is Mila, what is Nocturna, and why are vampires bad?"
