As to the question of "adding a major feature", I refer to the current status post from February: https://forums.taleworlds.com/index...plans-for-singleplayer-and-engine-iii.439421/
If we look at this post point by point, we notice that a majority of the points refer to "improvements" to features that are already in the game, such as "Improvements to Kingdom Decisions" or "Improving the Auto-Resolution of Battles". This tells me that the majority of the work they're doing is not on new features, but refining what's already in the game. The points in there that I can reasonably call "new features" are:
1. Sandbox mode
2. Abdication
3. Adding new quests
4. Sally out mission implementation
5. Lord's Hall Fight
6. Prison Break
If I recall correctly, they've added Sandbox mode, Abdication, Prison Break, and another new quest or two since that post (If I'm wrong on that feel free to correct me). That leaves us with Sally out, Lord's Hall fights, and new quests. With how small of a proportion that list is compared to the rest of the list, which as I said is mostly improvements to current features, I wouldn't expect ground-breaking new features for a long while.
