VN Ren'Py Eternum [v0.7.5 Public] [Caribdis]

[ThorinKing]

Unless... Calypso made up her mind and started to do the only way to rebuild her entire clan...
(but I'm pretty sure if she'll have a scene it won't be further than the other girls had.)

"But a scene is a scene"​

I can see the first Calypso scene being a little bit of a Femdom kind of thing. She knows she's hot; she knows MC is turned on by her; but, she's still a princess.

So she has MC strip down in front of her, she admires him a bit, then teases:

"Do you wish to see all of me - do you wish to experience me?"

She then does a sultry saunter around him, lightly touching him - dragging a finger across his chest, caressing his cheek, maybe even slapping a lower cheek, watching him become painfully erect at the sight of her as she reveals more and more of herself, finally wearing only a tiara and armbands.

She cocks a hip and asks "Are you pleased by what you see? Do you want to touch me? Yes?..... /Whispering in his ear/ No - you cannot. You must only drink me in with your eyes and imagine the suppleness of my breasts, the firmness of my rear, the damp heat of my lips..." as she circles him, drawing her finger around and down him, until is reaches the base of his now fully engorged shaft.

With a single nail, she circles the base, down to the upper edge of his scrotum, and slowly draws up his shaft, to the cleft of the head, at which point he explodes and falls to the ground, unable to stand.

She finishes the scene off with "If that's what I can do with a single finger, do you really think you can handle any more?"

You know you hit the mark when you get facepalmed by some guy that thinks "69" jokes are still funny and a 3.5 year lurker account.

Forgot to add: all this "Calypso scene when" talk makes me wonder if she'll have the opposite reaction to the rest of the girls once she sees Orion's "big mara" (even when fully erect)...

(Though considering all them "Girly Male Elf" tropes she'll probably be as flabbergasted as the rest of them, maybe even wonder if Orion has any Orc heritage or something)

I think male elves may be longish, but skinny, lacking girth. MC will have both - he'll be "Tanto Garcia" (if you know the joke).

Is that her face of approval? She can be so hard to read.

It's more of a denial, She's a Princess we don't know how naive she could be, imo seeing her treated roughly (or like a slave) would look more hotter... imo.

That will be her next cosplay with him. At least you didn't facepalm me like the guy that's too insecure to enjoy a woman in charge.

Good game, but a little too much story for my taste

Someone said it best a while back in this thread IIRC: this VN is more "plot with porn" rather than "porn with plot." So if you're not into that then you're gonna have a bad time.

Sorry man, I didn't want to post the pic in his original resolution, anyway it's in the Coven island if you want to take a look, is small anyway but it was a very interesting (imho) thing to discover.

Honestly two out of three actual fuck scenes are somewhat random. Especially the first one feels like it is more a hook for people playing this for the porn to show them, that there really will be sex in this game so they don't run away. In that way it is almost the opposite of PC which has so many long scenes that it is almost too much.

First one being...what, Eve? Naaah, I feel like that one's pretty natural given the setting. Like, if you didn't expect Orion (MC) to have the option to have sex with a prostitute in a Cyberpunk world then I don't know what to tell you (it's like, par for the course in just about a lot of Cyberpunk stories, really).

It is the first thing you do in Eternum with a character the MC doesn't know, that will likely never return and happens without any build-up. That scene is very much the definition of a random sex scene, especially compared to the scenes with the actual LIs, how slow those progress and how carefully they are build-up.

There IS some build up though. Quite quick compared to a proper buildup that LI's get, but it's not a complete "pump-and-dump" like in most cases (see: very first sex scene in "Apostle: Rebellion," just about every joytoy sex scene in "Cyberpunk 2077").

That scene is very much the definition of a random sex scene, especially compared to the scenes with the actual LIs, how slow those progress and how carefully they are build-up.

Tacked on for the sake of it, sure. Random? Ehhh...like I said, it's a Cyberpunk server. It's basically on the list of things/tropes you can expect to find, along with "human augmentation that may or may not make sense," "hackers that act like wizards," "always night or rainy weather," "excessive usage of neon," "over-the-top gore and violence," and "consumer-grade weaponry that violate the Geneva conventions."

Random as in coming out of nowhere. Sure, it is also meant to tell the MC and the player something about Eternum.

Again, considering how very prevalent prostitution is to just about the majority of Cyberpunk settings out there, can you even consider the encounter random?

Also you and I appear to have a very different definition of "random" as far as events in a story goes. Random to me is something completely unexpected that doesn't normally happen as far as genre conventions are concerned. Being able to cast magic in a Cyberpunk setting is random (unless it's explained in the beginning that your story happens in a setting that combines fantasy and cyberpunk (i.e. "Shadowrun"/"Cthulhupunk")). The existence of magical items in a Cyberpunk setting is random (unless, again, your story has a setting that combines both).

Stumbling on a brothel and sleeping with a prostitute in a Cyberpunk setting?

Sounds pretty common to me. Downright tropey, even.

Just spent the Entire day playing Eternum and Holy Shit, I'm blown away. this is a fucking masterpiece and that Nancy scene was divine. Writing is god tier and the characters look so fucking good. it felt like I was watching a movie with how invested I was, looking forward to V0.6! So Glad this is a Harem and hopefully it stays that way since I can't for the life of me choose between any of the girls.

[...]PC which has so many long scenes that it is almost too much.

Just to be sure. No Regina scene, right? Tried everything, including waiting in the locker room for 10 minutes XD and nothing happened.

There is a regina scene but you need to download the public version of the game. If you have mods enabled that might interfere with it as well as this scene was only added in the public release. Go to the locker room after regina invites you.

I think it was out of place because it does not fit Orion's character. It was very obviously put there just so people could have a lewd scene in the first version and compared to the other scenes in the game it feels a bit out of place to me because it feels disjoint from both the plot and the character personalities.

Orion is shown to be a nice and thoughtful guy and the first thing he does when Annie gives him the equivalent of 1.5k is to try and blow it all up on hookers which I feel goes against how the MC is shown to be. From Annie's perspective she has been saving for years (presumably to gift Orion the implant) and the first thing Orion does is try to throw it all away. Yes eva did not take the money but the MC did not know that would happen as it is even more unrealistic than the 1 dollar gas prices - it was a sex scene just for the sake of having a sex scene and I think there were better ways of handling it. The scene would have made a lot more sense if 1) it was similar to the regina scene where we lose Annie's path - doing something that will very obviously make the girls sad should be an option but there should also be consequences for such options 2) or if it happened later in the game where the MC has the option to spend his own money 3) or if it was somehow tied to the story like the Maat/Nova scene.

Shoehorning tropes just for the sake of it is not an excuse. It would not matter much normally but when everything else in the game is of such high quality something like this sticks out.
