Yeah, but there's plenty of Visual Novels on this site that have irregular updates and/or set unrealistic expectations, even if they aren't mechanics heavy. Caribdis... knows what this is, knows how to pace themselves, and knows how to set expectations. This is something that should be applauded, especially since while it may not have the mechanical complexity of other games, or visual novels that try to shoehorn in mechanical complexity (i.e. Hero's Harem Guild), this game does have really well done visuals and it's very clear the author is upping their visual game compared to their previous work Once in a Lifetime. The animations that they do, as well scene setup, take a fair amount of investment, much like mechanical complexity might.To be fair to other games on this site when comparing them to Eternum/OIAL. The "game" aspect of them is as simplistic as you could possibly get and still call it a game. The most complicated behind the scene's aspect of coding this thing is an if statement. Other games get slightly more complex.
I generally find the games that have the most reliable update schedules are more just VNs with images from 3D engines and less actually games.
Bravo for how reliable Caribdis is with his updates and how fun it is, but I think it's an unrealistic standard to use to compare to many games with some actual gameplay.
Its cool to know that this game might be done in 3 years...I'm jealous of the person who stumbles across Eternum after its development is done and gets to play through the game without waiting on updates. This VN is incredible.
one of us, one of us..I wasn't too sure of this game, but downloaded anyway. I have to admit that this is one of the best ones.
Yes Nova is very cute. Nova is wonderful.Feels good to just randomly download one of the best games on the site.
Also Nova a cute
Shocking, seeing your avatarYes Nova is very cute. Nova is wonderful.
Yes. Yes… Luna, Nancy, Penelope… all wonderful as well. All the girls in Eternum are top tier, and superior to most of the best girls from other games.Shocking, seeing your avatar
Well, Nova is good, all LI's are good honestly.
But my top are
Luna <- Nancy <- Penelope
Yeah, same for Once in a Lifetime, i'm normaly rather picky about the LI's, reject at least half of them.Yes. Yes… Luna, Nancy, Penelope… all wonderful as well. All the girls in Eternum are top tier, and superior to most of the best girls from other games.

But caribdis makes really good characters, be it LI's or side characters, like stabby Mike or Panzer VI Tiger Heavy Tank Jack, terror of the german steppes.
Stabby i agree, but Chang and Chop Chop are not really all that interesting so far, funny but not better as the girls.Stabby > Chang > Chop Chop > Swole Jack > Every girl
Well, so far Caridbis has worked at a very steady pace. I believe you might see the chapter by the end of next week or any time the week after.Isn't there that saying that the last 1% of work takes the longest?
Don't wanna kill the excitement, but just curious about devs work.
Please be patient, young one! Quality is more important than rushing work.Isn't there that saying that the last 1% of work takes the longest?

so it's due any day now. Probably around the 15th for demon lords maybe?My next post (probably during the weekend) will be the changelog, where I'll specify the release dates for each tier. However, I can already say quite safely that Eternum v0.3 will be released next week, so I give you permission to start getting hyped!
