Could someone tell us, the (relatively) new players of Fallen London, what parts of the Ambitions are currently the last ones? I mean, expressed in numerical values of the last available "chapters"?

Yes! as a rule, we now generally leave 5 or 10 step increments on story qualities that we increase, just as a convention to make things easier if we realise halfway through writing that we need intermediate steps.

I'm having flashbacks to BASIC programming.

Speaking of thread necromancy, does anyone know whether the new owners of Fail Better have stated that the Ambitions are still a thing that's being made? It seems to have been years since there was last content, and then Alexis left. Thanks.
The most recent update was last year, at the end of September. Light Fingers was brought to parity with the other Ambitions, and now all are one update from completion.

As if "not without consequence" was a deterrent to a Neather. *scoffs*

It might make things easier for the developers to track multiple Ambitions. I.e. no matter what ambition you have, they know you've finished the second major chunk of content when you reach Ambition 60.
That's just a guess, and if it's true it's a relatively recent decision. Looking upthread it seems Nemesis values were lagging behind some of the others, which could be why the latest Nemesis update jumped forward in large numerical leaps.

Heart's Desire isn't quite so simply expressed, as it's divided into various groups with their own numerical values. Since as far as I'm aware I'm at the content wall, my base Heart's Desire is at 18, I have Heart's Desire - The Bishop of St Fiacre's 4, and Heart's Desire - The Topsy King 25.

Nemesis is slightly similar, but it only has two tiny alternate chunks--the Forgotten Quarter and the Shuttered Palace.

Light Fingers caps at 55 or 56, I think. Mine is currently at 53. The final few storylets have very expensive requirements, I've been told, so I'm in no hurry to reach the content wall.
55, which is where I am right now. Yeah, the last jump is expensive; 5 whirring contraptions, at a cost of about 34 actions each, 20 aeolian screams, 20 correspondence plaques, 24 Amanita sherry, 2 puzzle-damask, and a warm amber. A total of about E93.50 in resale value, more in utility.
And yeah, Zeek's right. These aren't the end of the story, they're just the most recent chapter.

Oh, it has been so long since I was promised the location of the...um...what was it again? No matter, my Bag a Legend is 50. (My goodness, such a large number, but higher ones are to come, I am told.)
