I mean, I always poking fun at it, but I still like BaD a lot...and even play the minigames. :HideThePain:

And it is also the game that pretty much brought me here in a way. So without having played BaD I would've never played Eternum.
In my case it was OIAL.

And if I was going to play an AVN with minigames I'd rather play STS. Say what you will about it, at least the dev doesn't actively try to create a new type of minigame for every single version release. Dx

I mean...I'm not playing it BECAUSE of the minigames.

But I like the overall down-to-earth story and the characters as well. It is overall a more "realistic" setting.

OK so this is just a theory and it could possibly happen but it could have been something along the lines of SAO 2. One of the Praetorians kills Benjamin while someone sneaks in behind and murders the guy exactly after the Praetorian kills him. The 2 girls/guys or whoever is in charge covers up the whole thing, doctors the police report and whatever is needed and puts a cover story that he died of a heart attack or something.

BUT that's just me, it could be true or not really- hope to see everyone's opinions about my theory

I still think that some people just die from a heart attack in the "real world" when they get killed in Eternum. We don't know yet if it is just an accident or if they kill people deliberately to use them as NPCs. Killing them in the real world at the same time...how would they do that? That would imply that they somehow knew that Benjamin would try to rape the girl and get killed by the Praetorians exactly at that time. It only takes a few seconds between Benjamin trying to commit the rape and him getting killed by the Praetorians.

I guess, one could make an argument that they might have known something was afoot and that is how the Praetorians showed up so fast, but still...using hitmen in the real world that precisely and then somehow cover everything up (and not only with Benjamin but with thousands of people...

That would be an even larger stretch of my supension of disbelief than the fact that apparently no one is following up on all the people dying while playing Eternum. In the real world that would clearly lead to a pupblic outcry of some sort, no matter how large and rich the company would be.

The only incest that might happen would be Nancy/Dalia/Penny in some combination. But since Patreon is very anal about it, Caribdis probably has to avoid that anyways.
Or Annie, she even lived on the same city. But Caribdis didn't include it for 1 of 3 reasons, or he didn't want to take so long right all the code for that, or the story wouldn't fit, or he has something spicy for latest releases, although I don't feel it. If he ever had anything like that included in the story, my guess would be Orion having something to do with the guy that saved Calypso's ancestor (I'm sorry, I don't remember his name), which would explain Orion having 100% compability with Eternum.

Oh, and don't forget Chang, although he's already a bro in our hearts.

Don't be too anal about your English skills, my friend! :KEK:

The times I've read one of my postings from a day or even only an hour ago and was like "...the fuck did I wrote there and why did I make so many mistakes? :WaitWhat:"... :HideThePain:
Was this before or after the third drink of the day?

That bike/car minigame is STILL bullshit and I stopped playing STS years ago.

Hate the basketball game something fierce but like the idea.

And don't get me started on having to type to beat Derek...

Dev's team stays small and people burn out on it but I can understand the attempt to make a feature complete game but at this point, I wait for people to cover it on Pornhub or whatever.

Sorry but it's logistically impossible. Ben had stated that he was already on their list for other issues and infractions, thought he had immunity, and while you have resources for assassination, it makes zero sense to do it in real life, especially when there's no mutilation of the body reported.

And why do it on a high school student? Assassination is for high value targets. Ben is nothing more than street trash compared to William Bardot seeing such an attempt.

Too many flaws in the hypothesis and it's too over-reaching to explain something a bit more simple. We just need a clue what exactly occurred versus the repeated (AND GODDAMN GLORIOUS) deaths of Jerry.

Bit of a correction. Benjamin was nothing more than street trash, even his friend Axel recognized he deserved to a degree what happened to him (at best his death was the catalyst in the story to discover what Eternum's done with excommunicated players). Who knows if Jerry will die in either the hunt event, or in that pirate server (the question is how bad that's going to be). As for what might happen in the uncovering of Eternum's secrets, I can't wait to see what's about to happen next. :unsure:

Considering the man's personal opinion* on SAO's story, I don't think he would go out of his way to replicate that particular twist from it. Not when there's certain truths about the setting that non-OIAL players may not be aware of (or they are aware but they refuse to acknowledge it and just huff copium until the inevitable reveal drops) and using said twist would be a great disservice to it.

Speaking of...

...if they only finger each other's anuses, is it really incest? :unsure:

And that's another theory debunk by you :KEK:

You probably had to scroll 4 months of conv cause I see Cari new discord's pfp, any ETA for your PC repairs ? cause the old Dorfnutter would have debunk that within an hour :Kappa:

Oh that particular quote was something that I just recalled seeing. The original screencap (the one where he still had a Nova avvy) was in my screencaps folder in my dead laptop. Can't really recall some of them so I'm not sure if I can replicate all of those in my phone, lol.

And as for the PC...yeah I'm still saving up for that. Laptop repair is a no-go since it's the gpu that bit the dust and the thing is already a decade old, so no more replacement parts since it's all phased out now. So I guess I'll have to get used to typing and playing AVNs on the phone for the foreseeable future. :HideThePain:

(Only thing that hurts though is that I can't use GIMP anymore until I get my new PC. Which is probably a relief for 1tomadeira since my brain has been giving me ideas for a new batch of cursed images, but thanks to a lack of access to GIMP or Photoshop they might as well remain buried in the deepest recesses of my mind...at least for the time being, lol)

Hey Eternumites!

I have a good theory about the final battle of the Eternum. But before that, I'd like to thank Caribdis for this amazing game. You sir, are a genius and one of the best game developers out there.

Ok. This battle is going to be THE BIGGEST, THE COOLEST, and THE MOST EPIC ONE you have ever seen in any AVN. Every single character Orion met in the game will be on the battlefield!

First of all, let me say this: Although I can't explain how Orion could see Calypso without connecting in Eternum in EP5, I still believe Eternum is NOT the real world. I mean yeah, we have some clues that they could be same but I'm not convinced yet. Therefore, in my theory this battle is going to take place in Eternum (Ogygia server), not in the real world.

There are going to be two teams on the battlefield:
  • Team Orion
  • Team Thanatos
Team Orion:

Orion: The leader of his team.
Nova: The right hand of Orion, and 2nd in command.
Alex: The left hand of Orion, and 3rd in command.
The Other Characters: The real players in Eternum, such as Jerry, Raul, Noah, etc.
The Army of The Syndicate: The members of The Syndicate organization.
The Army of The Roman Empire: The United Armies of Eastern Roman Empire, Western Roman Empire, and Macedonia.
Nancy: The leader of The Roman Armies and the strategist of the team.

View attachment 3083655 View attachment 3083656

Team Thanatos:

Thanatos: The leader of his team.
Axel: The right hand of Thanatos, and 2nd in command.
Benjamin: The left hand of Thanatos, and 3rd in command.
The NPCs: The NPCs of Eternum, including the excommunicated players like Benjamin.
The Army of The Ulysses: The employees of The Ulysses company in the real world.
The Army of The Praetorians: The AI rule enforcers in Eternum.
William: The leader of The Ulysses' Army and the strategist of the team.

The battle will begin with Orion and Thanatos fighting each other on the front line. Nova will fight Benja, while Alex will fight her brother Axel. These fights between the six most powerful players of Eternum will completely turn the front line into The Hell. I really can't imagine how epic it is going to be!

Penny is THE KEY for winning this battle, because of her healing, protecting, buffing, and debuffing skills. By that time she is going to be at grandmaster level for every each one of her skills. Team Thanatos will remain helpless as long as Penny continues to fight on the battlefield. Hence, protecting her is VERY, VERY important! At this point we need Luna, Dalia, and Annie. The one and only duty of this trio is protecting Penny at all cost! By the way, both Penny and Luna are great summoners. Penny can protect her backside by summoning her creatures onto the gray area, Luna can also protect Penny by summoning her powerful creatures onto the purple areas. Annie and Dalia are amazing fighters, too. I'm sure this trio will never have any problems protecting Penny, but only if Thanatos won't attack them directly. So Orion must NOT let Thanatos touch any of his team members, especially the trio!

The other characters like Jerry, Raul, Noah, Eva, Maat, Kitty, Megan, Balbus Bundledore, and the Professors of Warthogs are going to fight the NPCs. I think it is safe to say that we may consider the excommunicated players by the praetorians as the NPCs, too. The other characters' main duty is fighting the NPCs, and help the trio (Luna, Annie, and Dalia) to protect Penny as much as they can.

We don't know much about The Syndicate organization at the moment, but I think they are quite a large group and are great fighters. Although they hide in the shadows to protect themselves from the Praetorians, this does NOT mean that they are cowards! I'm pretty sure they have a leader, too. They will fight against the Ulysses' employees by Orion's side under their leader's command.

Nancy is going to lead The United Armies of Western Roman Empire (WRE), Eastern Roman Empire (ERE), and Macedonia as The Empress. She won't be on the battlefield, but will observe the entire warzone under the protection of an elite group of Roman special forces on a high hill during the battle. Maximo is going to lead The Roman Armies on the battlefield on behalf of Nancy and is going to follow The Empress' orders. This army is going to be the largest unit of Orion's team, and we can consider them as the backbone of the team in both defensive and offensive terms. Their main duty is fighting The Praetorian Army and support The Syndicate Army as much as they can. Nancy is also going to help Orion as the team's strategist. Nancy has already proven that she is great at planning battle strategies in EP6. I don't know William is a good strategist or not, but I'm absolutely sure that Nancy is much better than him in this regard.

Since Calypso is The 3rd Weapon of Atlas and therefore incredibly powerful, her participation in the battle will disrupt all balances against Team Thanatos. So I certainly think that she is going to be captured by Idriel in advance to ensure a fair battle. Can Idriel do that? Yes, she can! Because The Founder already told us in EP5 that Calypso was created by Idriel. No matter how powerful Calypso is, she can NOT resist Idriel's will. Even If she could somehow do it, The Founder would intervene at once and never let Calypso fight in the battle. The Founder is neither evil nor hypocritical, but is very fair and a man of his word. The only thing The Founder wants is for the person who will replace him to be someone who deserves it. That's why he created The Gems of Doom. Only THE BEST can take his place and can be The CEO of Ulysses, namely the most powerful man in the real world and the Eternum.

I think there will be two endings for Eternum: GOOD ENDING (Orion becomes The CEO) and BAD ENDING (Thanatos becomes The CEO). Winning this battle will lead us to the good ending, but losing it will lead us to the bad ending. If Orion plays his cards wisely and keeps Penny alive as long as the battle continues, he can easily win this!
Thanatos has axel and benja as his generals? Yeah he is doomed. One thing oliat has done better is the feel of actual danger. He was close to dying multiple times. In eturnum it has been easy mood except thanatos and that orc in the start.
