Current game length

[Ace Hangman]

I am using Steam Development Build 0.4.10.
Just wondering how far the current build progresses, so I can start a new run and look for branches I didn't take.
I have reached Khor'minos and stopped the weapon smugglers and am currently waiting for a ship at the Wayfort. Is this the current end point?
I only have In Her Footsteps (follow Alyssa) and the Khor'minos quest showing.

Yep, this is the current spot where it ends at, so your good to go back to do other options.

I wouldn't expect much, the writers all hate writing corrupt content so there's either no corrupt content or small amounts of it in the various parts of the game. the little that is there are just digs at players that want corrupt content with some making other things in the game inaccessible when going corrupt and 3 of those choices actually remove a companion from the game. the orc futa can be abandoned when she goes to confront her brother, quin can be told to fuck off, and azzy can be pushed into the bimbo honey pool. all those evil/corrupt choices just strait up cause you to lose a possible companion.

Aside from bimbofying the hive, the choices you have described are asshole aligned ones that specifically antagonize and/or betray the people in question, so there is small wonder that the player ends up with asshole prizes. I think the issue lies with how often the game conflates this idea with what corruption is canonically represent: a decay of empathy and inhibitions.

This whole situations makes me wonder: was the development of CoC1 structured in this way, with all the 'good' choices being written first and the corrupt ones left as a stub for a while? I know that even in the finished game the corrupt content is less prominent, but not by that much.

Its because I think a majority of people will do the good choises first then come back through again and be an asshole. So its better to write for the majority then the minority. But honestly its also up to the writers.
