does oial pick up after the beginning because I tried playing it for the first time a few days ago and it seemed like a bore, and i just dont find the 2 main girls attractive. if its anything like eternum, ill fs try it again but idk rn
It does get better, but keep in mind you are essentially following the dev on their path on getting as good as they are now with Eternum. And there is a strong focus on the two characters you mentioned. The overall artstyle and character design does not change over the course of the game except one small fun part where the MC gets a haircut and is definitely subpar compared to Eternum. The humor is very Caribdis though and is easily comparable, that alone kept me entertained for pretty much the entire game. But if you don't feel good with it, don't force yourself. There are a few references to OIAL in Eternum but you do not really need to have played it. But maybe ask in OIAL thread, its still very much alive, just not as active as this one.

how much content does this currently have? because after playing Once in a Lifetime, i struggle to find other VNs that are that good (and completed)
I'd say Eternum's(0.5) length is almost equivalent to Once in a Lifetime. Just note that if you're talking about "that" content, it is pretty much only foreplay for every LI as of 0.5 (except for one wich have a full sex scene). It has a very decent amount of content and that's not even half of the game (dev says Eternum length will be between 12 and 20 updates)

Hang on , the progress statut is really 89% ? Because on the SubscribeStar , it's still at 87%
Y-yeah it's still 87% on my end (Patreon and Subscribestar) as well...what gives? Discord-only post or something?
Hmmm, I searched every site for the progress report and didn't find anything, but I found this on the YouTube channel, so I just shared the results.

As this channel has been following the game for a while now, but I'm not sure myself tho

mhh, its a big tricky to say. the story is actually engaging if you are into this but i honestly didnt care too much about it, cuz im usually more invested into the interaction with the girls in games.
the comedy is toptier shit. i love it. im really happy that Caribdis kept this kind of humor in Eternum.

but if you dont think the sisters are attractive then the game might not be for you. maybe you are already used to better art and graphics. lucky me i played oial before eternum, because eternum looked too flashes for me at the beginning.

the scenes with the mom are really hot in OIAL though.

btw, since i'm going to play it soon, is Stabby Mike in the game? or any other cameo?
No cameos unfortunately (likely to save time from having to redo and age up the OIAL character models in HS2 since this VN takes place almost a decade or so after OIAL (possibly even longer)).

Aww.jpg

(Who knows? Maybe he'll change his mind and have one or two pop up as a background character, but as of now I doubt it)

Was President. I like to think he managed to serve for 2 full terms and is now enjoying his retirement...or is out there in the world once more trying to right wrongs, butt kick for goodness and all that.
Stabby Mike = ultimate badass
Thanatos = ultimate badass

If A=X and B=X, then A=B.

Stabby Mike is Thanatos, hence why he didn't kill Orion.
