I think he’ll transport himself to Eternum and like logging out from Eternum all your ailments are “healed”. (For the next time you log in). Or his powers activate in the “real” world allowing him to healHe already
You really think Orion is going to stay dead when the story's entire premise revolves around the dead not staying dead?
So how bad do you think the next cliffhanger will be?The next update won't have a cliffhanger, that was already confirmed by Caribdis!
Lets just say there will be one helluva cliffhanger to keep us wondering what cari is going to pull next.So how bad do you think the next cliffhanger will be?
yea it's just renders but they gotta do the costumes, poses, lighting, environment, etc...they have A LOT to do because this game needs constant asset development / finding to be produced.You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

I actually was kinda left with the same feelings during that cliffhanger.I found this version's ending very strange since there were no choices with the bandits.
Did you see what that girl who is inside the Eternum universe said to him when he was bleeding... that he was too greedy and that this was the end for him!!!
This game shares the same universe as "Once in a Lifetime" (which takes place more than a decade before the events of this game) and one of that game's big reveals was that magic exists even in the real world (albeit in a low/urban fantasy esque manner). So magical shenanigans eventually happening is highly likely (if not next update then maybe even a bit later).
Honestly summoning Calypso to the "real" world would be a great solution too. Could see Caribdis going for that. Or he goes to Eternum and she finds him using her senses.
If Cari doesn't want to spend a lot of the next upgrade without the MC, he has to pick up the story with Orion pretty early. I wouldn't be too surprised if the game starts with Orion waking up somewhere in Eternum.I actually was kinda left with the same feelings during that cliffhanger.
But i was sitting there afterwards thinking, considering the fact that Eternum is almost basically leaking out into the real world,
i'd imagine that somehow something fantastic will happen.
We are the chosen one.
I highly doubt it, certainly not a perilous cliffhanger this time anyway. Cari is actually a decent writer, and if he's following the archetypical "hero's journey", which it certainly seems like he is, this is the part where the hero is at their lowest, arrogance set in and slapped them down and the next episode will see some level of struggle but coming out of the other side with a newfound strength and renewed belief, but with a now deeper understanding of themselves and what they have to do.I mean, as long as Cari doesn't end the update with a cliffhanger worse than the last one, I think we'll be fine...
...if not, well...
I would also point out that most of Cari's cliffhangers haven't actually been perilous, per se. It only feels that way because the latest two cliffhangers have felt more dangerous than the others. Being confronted by Bardot and being shot and left to die are pretty perilous. But when Benjamin's death was revealed, Calypso showed up, someone was knocking on the door before the heist, Orion meeting the Founder or the revelation that Thanatos was a dead man? Those were great cliffhangers, but not ones that put Orion or anyone else in a spot of any real known danger. They stopped the action are a precise narrative point to increase tension before the next release. Cari isn't just putting his characters in danger in order to sweep in with a dues ex machina to get them out again. Each cliffhanger has been a little different in both how it's set up, and how Cari plays it off. It'll be really interesting to see what he does with this one.
Some would say Chang has been the real hero all along.Well... there is someone who is ready to become a temporary MC...You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
So I hope something good comes along.
He warned people on Discord a while back that 0.8 was going to have a scary-ass cliffhanger, only to reveal that he moved that cliffhanger to 0.7.
Everyone gangsta until Cari puts a massive cliffhanger on each update moving forward.He warned people on Discord a while back that 0.8 was going to have a scary-ass cliffhanger, only to reveal that he moved that cliffhanger to 0.7.

And now he's saying 0.9/0.10 is going to have a massive one too. But given how he likes to shuffle things around, there's the potential danger that said cliffhanger will show up as early as next update instead. Hence my worry.
