If that's the case, when he says to Annie that he felt more in family with the Carters and her after returning from his trip to the UK makes much more sense.
I mean, his goal basically amounts to either destroying the world economy as they know it or world domination, so that might not be as big a problem as it sounds ...
This Is exactly how I took it. That in not very long at all, every corner of the oasis... um, I mean Eternum, would know and fear (dun,dun,dun) The Huntsman.
Idriel: "You know nothing, Orion Richards."
Starting a family of 9+X people? Yeah he definetly need to find the 10 gems of doom and wish to get rich because right now he is even poorer than me, he only has 2103 eternals

Well that's sure that the whole "retrieve the 10 gems of doom and become the CEO of Ulysses" thing is just a smokescreen and nothing of that will happen at the end. Now I wonder how people will react after hearing that the sudden death caused by a "stroke" are in fact caused by playing Eternum(and by Ulysses), will they believe it at first? Certainly not everyone, will they keep playing the game after this news? Yes I think so. What's certain is that both Eternum (the game) and Ulysseswill experience upheavals (just imagine if some players get their hands in the whole " excommunicated" thing and can start kiling others people/player for real)
Ahh this cursed song, I thought there was some whsipers in the middle so I have listened to that shit about 10 times in a row to try to hear them
Nah my prediction is that Eternum (the VRMMO) will just suddenly shut down without warning once Orion and co "break the cycle" and reopen Acheron (allowing the spirits trapped in Eternum to pass on to their respective afterlives), leading to an inquiry/investigation back in the real world that will reveal a lot of uncomfortable stuff that's happening in the game and under Ulysses watch, but nothing about excommunication leading to souls being trapped in Eternum nor of its true nature because those secrets will likely die with William and the Founde-
I dunno, man. When they asked him for a badass nickname, I went with Ben Dover. 'Cuz you're about to get fucked.
(nonetheless interesting theory)
I mean the Ulysses payout after the fall will pretty much keep the world relatively stable after...but yeah, the short-term financial and economic shitshow that results from a lot of people losing their in-game jobs/source of income and literal economies being cut off from Eternum will be quite something...if we even get to see that and not be delegated as a news reel footnote-
Y'all are missing the point when Ulysses is being abandoned and brought down, and Nova hacks in, transferring the funds quietly and living a happy harem life after with all the girls and Orion
Not sure if Orion and co would want to touch the money of a corporation that benefitted from keeping the dead souls of the multiverse trapped and denied of their rest in their respective afterlives. At best they'll see the payout and fall of Ulysses as punishment for their transgressions, with Nova likely stealing a little and pass it off as her own "savings" (despite some disapproval from members of the harem at first). Again, my prediction is the funds won't make them live off as kings and queens, but it'll be more than enough for Orion and co to at least start a small business and/or have the other members of the harem finish schooling and settle down eventually in one household (likely at Nancy's...which means heavy renovations are likely a-coming for that house).Y'all are missing the point when Ulysses is being abandoned and brought down, and Nova hacks in, transferring the funds quietly and living a happy harem life after with all the girls and Orion
Uhhhh... While you're in a bit of a brain drain, lemme add a bit to this...
Like I said there will be fallout and it'll likely be talked about in the next game...but it won't be such great of an upheaval that Cari will have to take that into consideration in the events of the next game (and by consideration I mean in a "the game's location and events that are going to happen are heavily affected by the events of Eternum and you'll see the unintended consequences of Orion and co's actions" kind of way). At best it'll be some background fluff or one of the characters/LIs will come from a family that was affected by the economic/political fallout. But other than that it'll likely be "business as usual" for the world.
