Call her what you want, but she is funny, so she helps the story.Comedies (which Eternum is, along with being sci-fi, mystery, and fantasy) don't need comic relief.

Yes and the obvious point would simply be: If Eva was supposed to be part of the harem...why isn't she already? She was introduced very early, so if she was supposed to become a part of the harem, it would've been possible to integrate her all the way back in like 0.1 or 0.2.I think it's too late to add Eva to the harem. There has been discussion about whether or not Orion is being deceitful by not telling each of them about the others he has been with, but up to now I don't think that's a problem. He's not dating any of them (not even Annie, yet), and more than one has asked/demanded that he keep it to himself. But a big part of why is because they're becoming a close group of friends, which is an essential part of a harem (at least any that I'd want to be part of). Hence Annie's comments about possibly hooking up with Dalia (when she asks for more kissing practice and says she needs it because "What if Dalia suddenly kisses me one day?"), or having Nancy join in a threesome with her and Orion (when he says Nancy would probably want to if she caught them and Annie says "Do you think she'd really ask that?") don't seem out of place.
Adding Eva now as an LI requires a relationship dynamic that is not present, and would be more difficult to add at this stage.
How I imagine this goes down:Just like the Clone device will be used for a Lewd scene, and not for the plot.
That was not the point (edit: at least not mine), only a few more scenes she appears in (not even necessarily of a lewd nature). Some people, I may perhaps be one of them, really liked her character and in contrast to other side encounters she already got other integrations like in the recent update and I thought it to be quite funny and well done. Can you blame a man for being wanting?I think it's too late to add Eva to the harem.
It's possible context got lost along the way, but my original posts were exactly along these lines. I think Eva is one of the most interesting side characters (to me much more interesting than any of the other side characters) and I want to know more about her. I'd even prefer additional scenes not be lewd. Because it's her as a person I'm most interested in (and also all I said about how it would not work well with the current group status).That was not the point (edit: at least not mine), only a few more scenes she appears in (not even necessarily of a lewd nature).

Yes, it's getting complicated now. But Annie still frames what they are doing as "practice" – I know, she's shy, but she also knows how much Orion cares for her as more than a friend, and for how long he has cared, and if she wants him to treat what they're doing as a committed relationship, she'd be up for the challenge of saying so. She's being more direct about what she wants, sexually if not emotionally. Her assertiveness when she was trying to show the others what she can do with her magic also shows she's not as timid as she used to be. And those two things she said, to me, are her saying that she'd be okay with sharing him – perhaps more than okay, given that her comment about Dalia did not even include him. I think she has a crush on Dalia.Yes and the obvious point would simply be: If Eva was supposed to be part of the harem...why isn't she already?

I might actually object to the bit about Annie though. It very much seems like she thinks that Orion and her are in somewhat of an early stage of a committed relationship at this point and I would suggest that she has pretty good reasons to do so (considering for example the dialogue between her and Orion in the kitchen). The kiss with Luna also sends considerable signals towards her in my opinion (obviously one kiss doesn't make a relationship, but still).
That actually brings up a new aspect: At what point does Orion need to tell the girls what is going on between him and...well...all of them? I don't think that point can be pushed much farther than 0.7 or 0.8 without Orion starting to look like an asshole for leading all the girls on.
That has me thinking, maybe we will get a larger and actually playable epilogue. The ones in OIALT were, well... ok, but quite short or mostly photo streaks iirc. At least the main ending could get some extra juice. Eternum would deserve it.That said, it probably won't reach 20 unless he introduces a bunch of new stuff in later updates that would necessitate having to stretch the plot for even longer.
Well of the many things we've seen so far in Eternum is that it improved every skills of Caribdis as an author, so I'm fairly certain that Eternum will have a proper ending ( and much more).That has me thinking, maybe we will get a larger and actually playable epilogue.

Probably the only thing that could prevent that would be Cari getting impatient and wanting to start the new game already forming in his head, so he starts rushing the ending. Somewhat similar as it seems to have happened with OiaL.Well of the many things we've seen so far in Eternum is that it improved every skills of Caribdis as an author, so I'm fairly certain that Eternum will have a proper ending ( and much more).
Let's hope not!!Probably the only thing that could prevent that would be Cari getting impatient and wanting to start the new game already forming in his head, so he starts rushing the ending. Somewhat similar as it seems to have happened with OiaL.![]()
Oh, ok. I didn't know that. Thanks for the info.I mean, in the end Cari can name the versions pretty much as he wants, but the normal way would be something like 0.6...0.9, 0.10...0.16 and then, when it is done the jump to 1.0
Cari has already confirmed that there will be more than 10 episodes and that the 10th episode won't be 1.0
I thought the harem ending was fine. Solo endings may be rushed but this game just like once in a lifetime is designed to be a harem game.Probably the only thing that could prevent that would be Cari getting impatient and wanting to start the new game already forming in his head, so he starts rushing the ending.

It was lack luster. Sure, fine that we get all the waifus, but lacked substance, lewds, cross pairings, etc.I thought the harem ending was fine.
From my understanding Cari made OIAL with just a general idea of the story, with everything else he made up as he went. With Eternum there seems to be a more deliberate foundation given that he's mentioned on his official Discord that he already has all of the story beats outlined from beginning to end, with the only things he hadn't being the LI events as he likely wants to be flexible with that.Probably the only thing that could prevent that would be Cari getting impatient and wanting to start the new game already forming in his head, so he starts rushing the ending.

I understand what you mean but I still have to post the obligatory "Fate Universe is complicated as hell" commentPoint being, IMO there's little danger of a repeat of OIAL's epilogue given that he has a clearer idea as to where things are headed and all he has to do is to work his way up to that point. And as Dylan741 had said (which I am in perfect agreement with), this game seems to be Cari's "Fate/Stay Night," where he basically solidifies and lays out the actual lore and rules of his universe instead of just making it up as he went for the most part like he did in OIAL.
When someone tries to talk about Fate with me, I have two answers already in hand:I understand what you mean but I still have to post the obligatory "Fate Universe is complicated as hell" comment![]()
