VN - Ren'Py - Eternum [v0.9.0] [Caribdis]

Review of v0.8.5

What can I say? This game is a masterpiece. I really enjoyed playing it.
Everything is perfect: the story, the graphics, the animations and the characters. The music is also good and goes well with every situation.
The other thing I loved was the omnipresent humour and the many nods.

The only small criticism I would make is the lack of variety in the sex scenes (e.g. no anal or titfuck with busty female characters like Nancy, Penelope or Calypso).

I recently discovered this game and I can see why it's so popular with other players. I highly recommend it!

This is clearly a story-first AVN. It plays well, at the player's pace, and feels like a well done TV series. The characters have their own lives, and while there's a lot of artificial depth, and a heavy dose of stereotyping, it lends itself to that satisfying feeling of character-first story telling.

My understanding is that Carbidis has made this a harem game so that multiple playthroughs aren't necessary to see the content, which adds to the enjoyment, as you don't feel as though the game has locked you out of content. (Though revisiting the game is still enjoyable, even if you know what's coming.)

Not a lot else can be said about the game without spoilers.

Some of the humour feels contrived/forced, and doesn't really stand up on multiple playthroughs. (This is normal in modern media, so I'm not marking it down for this.)

I really don't like HS games they just don't do it for me, but this is one of my all time favorites, that's how good I think it is. Graphics, story, Love Interests, animations and of course the sex scenes are all 5 stars. Defenitely a must play.

This Game is just an absolute work of art, truly worthy of 5 Stars.

The story chapters capture you with their well-written plots. The amount of scenes in the Eternum-Dimensions and in "Reality" are really well balanced, in my opinion.

The Stories of the love interests can sometimes be lighthearted, sometimes heartwrenching, sometimes funny. It makes them seem like "real people".

The Artwork is just the créme on the top. Especially the later animated scenes .

The women in this visual novel are captivating and beautiful in both body and spirit, and they may lead some people to wish that they exist, be happy, and live forever. However, I cannot say the same for the main character (MC).

While you can choose the first name of the MC, the MC may not represent you, since the player's influence over his decisions and attitudes is quite limited.
Up until this point, everything seems normal within the limits of an interactive visual novel.
I will now list some things about this game that really bothered me:


In conclusion. In this game/visual novel, the player is like an alter that influences the molding of an MC who is stupid, and in some important moments, disrespectful. And, after helping to shape this character, there occurs a situation that shows there has not been significant evolution in him, in regards to his character.

While women should not be put on pedestals any more than men deserve it, the main women in this game are totally lovely. What cannot be said about the MC which lost a relevant part of my already scarce sympathy for him after the last events with Alex in version 0.85 of the game.

Summing up, this VN/game deserves a score of 5 for its lore and the main women you interact with throughout it. However, it deserves a score of 2 for the approaches of the MC and the author towards these women. These women deserve a much better MC. The visual novel/game deserves 3 but I leave it at 4 for the lore and out of respect for the kind and lovely characters (not the MC).

Every part of this game is PEAK! the idea alone is magnificent. Every little thing they added the music, the scary parts and the hilarious parts it makes really laugh at how good they did it, absolute favorite

Eternum weaves a compelling tale with memorable characters and intriguing lore. The narrative kept me hooked, eager to uncover each twist and turn. A must-read for fans of [Genre - e.g., fantasy, sci-fi] novels.
i love it, thank you for upload and thank you the one who make this

Eternum is a well-written novel with a lot of hours of content. It's biggest advantage is that the setting makes it so that the adventures of the main character occur in all sorts of different worlds. There is a horror level, vampires and werewolves, pirates, wild west, etc. Despite the large amount of content the game isn't boring at all. You are fed bits and pieces from the overarching plot slowly, usually at the end of a chapter and it's always a great reveal.

Now onto the porn itself, which is well animated, but there are quite few sex scenes since the game's pace is slow. One criticism I have is that the MC's cock is just comically large.

All in all a great game and one of the best adult visual novels currently released.

Best quality porn game out there, hands down. Caribdis delivers yet another banger after Once in a Lifetime, improving upon their techniques and creating an immersive, entertaining and overall incredibly polished experience.

This game is almost too good to pe a pornographic game. The game as great graphics, the characters have also a personality growth. The game has a story and lore which is comparable to movies. And it is also funny

Overall: 3/5

Aside from the excellent renders and animations, the story of Eternum left me with much to be desired after the recent updates of EP 5-8. What started as an engaging action-thriller unique in its contexts as an Adult VN devolved into generic harem game with no risk or consequence. Though it may be trivial, the narrative structure flows much more linear than branching like you would expect from a VN. Too much in fact that there is no risk nor consequences of your actions. I feel as if the anonymity of giving player choice is just a pretense of being able to call itself a VN. Although giving a player too much choice can break the immersion of the game, this one ruins it by not giving enough meaning to each choice.

What mostly is a downside for me is the MC. After the recent updates, he seemingly fell into a pit of being generic and too perfect. There are no flaws in his character, and this being the case makes him boring and uninteresting no matter how you spin it. Additionally, the dialogue (especially in the H-Scenes), too has devolved into generic and cringeworthy exchanges reminiscent of modern fan fiction, with phrases like "Hey babe" and "Don't worry babe" becoming all too common.

Therefore, I have to call Eternum average because it lacks the depth and engagement that made it initially compelling.

Without a doubt the best game of its kind, each update surpasses the last. And Caribdis has such great musical taste! I still can't believe they created an original song (Good Friends) so amazing for Annie's scene.

So much work. I'm speechless. Don´t need to say more. Excellent! The different scenarios, the girls (liked even the plump ishari girl, for a change). Thank you for the full emotions. Of course, something of what would become possible in 20 years, or so.

I've played a lot of h-games, hundreds and hundreds (hey man, don't judge) but this is without a doubt the best of them all. Storytelling, humor, visual quality and sexual content are all top notch. Even the soundtrack and work is a good level above even the best peers.

I wont spoil anything or talk in depth but I urge anyone to give this game a spin because it is truly an amazing piece of work amongst so many others. I hope the quality with future updates wont take a hit and all power to anyone involved making it, Eternum is absolutely fantastic. And if you love it as much as I do, consider supporting the creator. Not many creators truly deserve the scratch but this one certainly does.

A highly acclaimed game, but sadly, it suffers from the same shortcomings as many other AVNs—it tries to tell too much while staying within its limiting format. The dialogue, in my opinion, is a bit too juvenile. Some jokes are really good, but the overall plot lacks significance.

The MC morphs and changes too much from scene to scene. He doesn’t have a well-defined character because the author constantly adjusts his behavior to fit different scenarios. The love interests are also far too one-dimensional—most don’t act like real people.

The plot has aged like milk. The VR, MMORPG, Isekai, and Fantasy genres, which spawned from SAO's success, have been done to absurdity in Japanese anime. The problem is that the plots are predictable, offering nothing truly innovative, and this game follows the genre playbook so closely that I couldn’t help but get bored by the premise.

It’s still good, just not the storytelling juggernaut I was promised.

this is one of the best visual novels that I recommend to everyone.
I read it completely twice.. I'm crying again ...
I like this story. I dive into it completely. there is a good variety of music. interesting and memorable characters. there is also humor. from the first minutes it was interesting to read. and now going through it for the second time I notice a lot of things that I did not notice before.
I am looking forward to the continuation of the story..

This is crazy good stuff.
Usually, I am not much into VNs, but I cannot stop being amazed by this great and fun story mixed with hot and varied lewds. It really is a dream come true! Thanks to the contributors!

This VN has a lot going for it. The models are terrific, the scenes are top notch, and the story is pretty interesting. But the thing that I think makes this one of my favorite VN's is the banter. The back and forth between characters that is silly and fun makes for a good time read. I often find myself just fast clicking through other VN's to get to something interesting, but with Eternum I read every line of dialog.

Not many times can I say that a game has had me constantly waiting for updates or has me up late finishing the story not even for the scenes but just to savor every moment of each update that come ever so slowly but are made with such care and dedication that it bewilders the mind.

When I first began Eternum I was beginning in the 0.3 version of the game and ever since I got those banger scenes and story I was hooked. Every update added more and more P E A K. The comedy in the game is great, the romance makes my heart burn, the story makes me feel like the thinker pondering the meaning of humanity only to be brought back to the sight of some of the finest women ever designed like D A M N. We got everything blondes, red heads, brunettes, Chang, and even latinas and so much more like Caribidis DOES.NOT.MISS. Such a rich story beautiful animation and by far some of the best cliffhangers I have had from a game like this.

If Once in a lifetime was the appetizer in the Caribdis library then this is the main course. And even when an update is read once twice even 3 times over or more I still come back to this cause as I said before they DO.NOT.MISS. So I wait patiently for the next installment knowing it will in fact be PEAK.

(Btw Penelope's motor madness is the best scene by far hope to get another one with them cause DAMN)

Love this game.
The characters, the humour, the scenes. Can't wait for the next update.
The pacing is also good.

I still get anxious when picking which girl I want to give points to at some decisions though.
