I mean...her solving the whole collectors plot was pretty much meant as having her shine, even without using the abilities of her Eternum character. :unsure:
Ehh... yeah, kind of. That was her using her brain though, not showing off her "Eternum skills." The entire arc during the war scenes were exactly what I'm talking about. She was finally going to show that she's just as badass as the rest of the group by using her magic but the moment gets stolen from her.

Thanks for the insult, i suppose my comment hurt your feelings :LOL: . Of course , this works too, both thinks are shit, don´t you think?
the point is you cant say one is sexist and the other isnt. but people (more accurately the media) love to cite the first point as being true, while they generally ignore the second one. either both of them are true, or neither of them are.

Uhhh, no? They're in the real world why the fuck would she end up as an NPC? Unless you think they're gonna kidnap her and strap her back into Eternum then excommunicate her and possibly off Orion in her apartment while they're at it or something?
The backline of Eternum has been heavily implying that it's all just other worlds, rather than a game. What do you think the procedure was, then?

I mean the whole "War part" if the update was pretty much designed for everybody of our heroes to show of their abilities with the joke that Annie just doesn't get the right opportunity. Nancy shows off her leadership skills, Alex shows of her shapeshifter skills, Nova her sniper skills, Luna her summoning skills, the MC his super abilities and so on.

Granted Dalia and Penny are more talking about their abilities than actually showing them, but it is very much implied than succeed as well.

That was my idea. Force her at gun point to log in use whatever mechanism William might have by now to create an NPC out of her and have it look like an accidental death in the "real world" to get away with it. I'm no expert in inheritance law in the US, but he wouldn't need to visit her for that, I think? And he certainly wouldn't make a courtesy visit. He wants to "complete a procedure".

I currently only see 3 ways in how Orion could get himself out of this predicament.
1. William just pressure Orion, he has to go somewhere else (not really fan of this possibility).
2.Orion activate his power and escape with Alex.
3.Calypso use her portals.

There is perhaps a fourth way that I could see but there is nothing that show it currently but it's the Syndicate.
There is a also a scenario where Orion give up his 2 Gem to save Alex. But tbh unless Orion kill William right here he will just go grab Alex or his friends again as a bargaining chip.

So... you agree with me :WaitWhat:

Yes it's a possibility that I didn't think about in the moment because I was more on getting out of the predicament without losing anything.

I interpreted that as a routine visit out of obligation and shit, though part of me is in agreement with what Amnezziia said and it could be that he came to have Alex sign a document that would completely disinherit her from the Bardot family and that she's waiving any right to anything William owns (I mean, by law she's still a Bardot, so she has legal right to inherit part of the estate in the event of William's demise). He did say that Alex will be joining them shortly so if he plans on making Alex an NPC he would've just taken her already instead of saying that.

But of course, it's up in the air as to what's really going to happen in 0.7 so it could be as you guys say. I'm just having a hard time believing it though since he has every opportunity to make her an NPC even before this update, so why do it now? Why not when they got Calypso after Ogygia? Or during the Ulysses party? Why now make such a move?

Why was William monitoring Wyatt's house ? How he do it can just be thanks to implant that nobody take out, is it just to find people who seem to understand that Eternum is not a game ? Now that I think about it, if it's thanks to the implant than William know that Orion and Nancy were at Wyatt's house, it make him even more dangerous.

Uhm...we know and the MC also knows at this point. He even mentions it in that scene if I remember correctly.
He doesn't know, he's speculating about possible explanations (as I pointed out, he's suspecting) and neither do we really at that point, even if we can very heavily suspect that the NPCs at least are not just simple computer programs (what they are is not something we know at that point). Part of that heavy suspicion is based on we as players seeing stuff and reading thoughts that the MC isn't privy to, but mainly that we know that this is fiction created by a dev that previously have made supernational fiction. If I were to encounter something similar mysterious in my real life, it would take *much more* for me to entertain ideas of aliens, alternative dimensions and magic.

I was talking about the girl called a slut for fucking two or more guys because that was the topic of the conversation, somehow you have been offended and brought up the topic of the guys' virginity... I tell you that the two ways of think are rubbish. But instead of agreeing with me and asking politely about the other position, you have been insulting and very nervous. In any case, it has already been discussed and you know what I think of both, I consider the topic closed.

Orion literally say "He once was" when the pedo say that it's not a real kid. It show that he know NPC's are former human like Thanatos.
Also are you saying that we can't be sure that Eternum is not a game ? When Calypso nearly say what Orion said during his bleeding case ? Or when Axel explain that it's physically impossible for Eternum to be a game, or at least currently impossible ? And just William who said that Orion understood that some NPC were former humans and that the true nature of Eternum is not what the population think it is ?

I don't really care if any of the girls are virgins, but I'm gonna add my 2c. Realistically neither penny or Alex would be virgins. They act fairly mature, they don't display hesitation or embarrassment to sexual situations, they are both super attractive so finding a willing partner for either of them would not habe been a problem and penny in particular has shown to have had an interest in dating way before Orion returned.
That being the case I am thinking that they are probably virgins. Because this is a porn game and all those things can be written around or excused or explained by porn logic. And porn game design rule number 1 of catering to the virgin lovers means that any girl that can be a virgin will be. And any girl that cannot possibly be a virgin, because she has children, will be written with a background designed to explain that she has had the least amount of dick possibly to get her to this point.
Not every game follows this rule, but nancies backstory heavily implies that eternum does. She's a mother, who's incredibly sexy, incredibly horny and incredibly young looking, yet she married, got two kids, immediatly left by her husband and never even dated once, in nearly 2 decades until the start of the story.

So penny and Alex are likely virgins. Maybe penny got turned off guys by her first boyfriend, Alex likely got sick of guys going for her for her families money. Pennies mature because she's in college and has likely a lot of experience with attempted sexual advances as a model. Alex is forward the way she is because she sees Orion as her potential prince charming.
I don't care if they are not, but that's my guess anyway.
