But what about the human that freed Anima is that Orion Reincarnted or perhaps someone that Idriel chose to help free the NPC's? :unsure:

Hmmm....but then that raises the question do implants really matter for a soul to get bound to Eternum since she wouldn't have had an implant as an elf.
Eternum has been open to travel long before the nerve implant existed. The Andromeda tapes mention it with the Alien creator traveling through it in his dreams and encountering a Xenomorph (this was before Ulysses was even a thing). Luna's Grandma had mentioned that her sister's interactions with the dead also touched upon talk of Eternum (the "each dead has their own little heaven" talk).

Hell, even the protagonist of OIAL had visited it at some point. And that's before the nerve implant even existed.

So no, highly doubt implants matter for a soul to be bound and that it's as William said: that they're used to facilitate travel between Eternum and the real in an easier and more reliable fashion (while also providing Ulysses the means to track their players and their progress in the gem hunt).

hey everyone so i just started my run of eternum last month, great story btw, but was curious, the render quality or style was different in the beginning which is fine but then i saw it change at some point in the story to it looking more realistic 3D and thought oh maybe the dev got a nicer PC around this chapter, but im at the part where they are planning the heist and it back to looking like the quality from the start of the game, I'm not complain its still cool but just wanted to know if there's a story behind this?? if anyone can fill me in its just curiosity haha

Just your preferences and imagination , I suppose.

Because I certainly did not notice a difference. But then again I do feel that the render quality goes down when there's nova h-scenes, and yet again nova is my least favorite character in terms of appearance (sans chibi nova)

please dont kill me T_T

Huh? There is no story behind it. Cari's been using the same engine with the same settings from the start of the game. The only difference is that his use of lighting and the way he takes shots gets a lot better as time goes on, so certain scenes look "better" even though the graphical settings remain unchanged.

I understand the game perfectly … also mc power is being super lucky, hes friend with the top players of the game thats too convinient
No, you really don’t understand.

It's not the people Orion plays that are top players, he’s the special one - with 100% comparability and destine to break the chain.

Nothing here is too convenient, this is basic story telling. We’re following the story of Orion because that’s the interesting story. Of course he gets lucky, and is good, and interesting things happen, and girls are falling all over him. No one would play a game about an average guy who is boring, does nothing special, and the LIs are his socks.

I think there could be many valid criticisms made of the game and I have no issue with that. I simply think your criticisms come from a lack of understanding based on poor language comprehension. And I say that as someone for who English was a second language.

Pardon my ignorance, but what's a "sans chibi nova" is that some sorta meta undertale reference that I don't get? Or is it some sort of discord emoji composed of Nova and Sans merged together or something?

I think it is strange, that nobody remarks, that Jerry constantly dies and returns in the game, while Benjamin died in game and dies outside of it too. I mean it is almost a running gag of Jerry dying, but still nobody remarks it ingame as is "well there are reports of people dying and recovering ingame later ". I think there is some plot hole, I am still not through the complete novel, still at college helloween, but yeah, who knows why Jerry is ignored while benjamin is a mystrerious case.

That's because Benjamin got excommunicated, banned from Eternum. "Normal" death in Eternum doesn't equal to death in the real world, but excommunication is a different case.

Benjamin was an in-game rapist that flouted the rules multiple times. It's suspected that because he was a raving douchebag and wouldn't act in accordance with the rules, someone associated with Eternum sent some sort of feedback through the neural implant (my take, at least) to cause him to stroke out in reality when the Praetorians killed and excommunicated him in game.

Jerry is just dying because he's playing poorly, not being killed deliberately by the enforcement wing of Eternum. It's rumored he's related to Kenny from Southpark.
