Is storyline finally ended?

Is storyline finally ended? No more cliffhangers? Can I finally finish it and get proper finale?

Or do I need to wait a couple more years?

If you consider being stuck in a time loop fighting the same boss over and over again as some sort of ending, then yes it has finally ended.

I mean, do story finally gets conclusion. Because on release I remember you play storyline and suddenly you get city to rule and that's it.

The story don't get a conclusion.
They added a chapter 4 and said with it the campaign was complete (no more chapter to be expected for the campaign).
But the chapter 4 is the story arc for Bloodtrail followed by a loop which is mostly the endgame with a little touch of story on it (which is more a continuation of Bloodtrail arc than the campaign).
Lot of things stay unanswered. The ellipse between the end of chapter 3 and 6 months later is untouched. Etc.

The campaign has ended. But it was not completed and probably never will (we'll have to see what they do story wise with the seasons).

Thanks for heads up. Seems like I need to avoid Wolcen for now, since there is nothing worse than a cliffhanger for a storyline to me.

Not just story, even after it's over your bored out of your mind playing the same things over and over with the same weapons/gear. They need to introduce far more diverse & rare gear, more interesting mission types, better rewards. And far more emphasis on co-operative play (this is a MUST), community is driven by co-operative engagement.

Infinity the basically borked, since beyond 300 skulls is impossible. And even if it wasn't, your always going to hit a wall where you cannot progress further due to the limitations of GOF and weapons/gear available. It's damn frustrating that a game as good as this, is let down by lack of content and bad decision making.

This is so true. I'm only 20 hours into the game and the writing is on the wall already. I was just getting into the story by chapter 4 and it's ending...?! This game could have been epic! It needed about 40 chapters and no doubt other things for longevity in the end game as mentioned above.

To sum it up: it could have been truly great. I guess I'm moving on to Last Epoch sooner than expected.

Feels like somebody got lazy with writing storyline or just encountered creativity crisis and as result we got "finished" but unfinished storyline.

The game's story is concluded, yes. You get a storyline which will lead up to the endgame's gameplay loop which is repeating the final siege over and over again because Ahriman is gonna destroy you on your first attempt but the egg of Oshara is gonna send you back in time to try again until you're strong enough to defeat him.

You're better off playing the game yourself and getting a final verdict by yourself because this game's forums are infested with entitled crybabies expecting AAA quality from an indie developer.

I think story of wulcan is ended. Few things left open for potential secual. in act 4 you are in a time loop til you can defeat ahriman. In first 3 act you are identified enemy and tried to fight back. You defeated big bad story ended. But "what happened to that" or "what happened in that time frame is not telled" is not unfinished story.(i personally do not need to see what happened between act 3 and act 4. I can guess we were working as ahrimans soilder and searching for a way to make ahriman come to our world. I do not need details. ) Ending can be bad but story is ended.
