Awesome songs eh? I’d rather stay on earth is just a great song with some emotional depth to it that matches well with the conversation you’re having with Dalia. Then the instrumental version of Calor has a great beat which matches well with the beach setting and the throat fucking.
think i can hold on, but eternum withdrawal kicked in early this time. march is feeling like forever and 1 day away, then there is still the time it comes out here

Agree with you entirely, especially with how long this update is taking. Eternum ruined every other AVN for me because of it's quality and how everything else pales in comparison, so I have no other option but to wait for Eternum updates which take forever or wait for a new game that can rival Eternum which may never happen
When I first started down the AVN rabbit hole, I didn't like the look of HS, so I avoided any AVN's that use it. While on Discord a while back, everyone was talking about how awesome OiaLT was. My curiosity got the better of me so I decided to give it a try. Needless to say, I was blown away! That's when I realized that using HS, HS2, or even DAZ doesn't make a great AVN, it's the developer! Caribdis is not only a great creator with HS and HS2, but a phenomenal story writer! I no longer base my choices on looks, but on content. Eternum is one of my favorite AVNs. I don't know anything about the whole AVN awards, but if he won that many, he truly deserved it!

Even if it fits the scene extremely well, at this very day I find myself listening to that song from time to time. It's actually a very well written song. Nothing extremely technical, but everything fits pretty well, with great transitions and shows that simplicty has a great result. Even the pauses show that silence can be a tool when making music.
I wonder what the next update will bring... specially if there's a Penny or Calypso scene... Or both together, a man can dream
OIALT is rough around the edges, but had the makings of a great one but it's good. It gave Cari limits and focus IMO.
The main things I would criticize is the "magic system", the girl distribution (some get more screen time than others), and the over usage of Stabby Mike as a Deus Ex Machina. Most of this is alleviated GREATLY in Eternum even though it isn't quite gone (looking at Penny, Dalia, and Annie don't have enough screen time or just plain blueballed)
I do want to see how the 8 girl distribution plays out before I comment about it but for the most part I have no big qualms that OIALT was a lesson and Eternum benefitted from it greatly.

i would definitely say that any games with too many LIs is hard to manage. I would say the max LIs should be around 4 or 5 (pushing it) - enough variety and not too big so they can enough screen time and character development. Eternum LIs is well written but screen time is split too much around.
That being said, i hate Caribdis for making me liking all the LIs. Dammit i cant choose ! Now i have the dilemma where i dont know who to exclude if given the choice

7 + 1 LIs is a lot and every LI is likeable (but Penny is still the best) and well written.
It is hard to choose who'll be your "Favorite" and it's also hard to exclude LIs (unless we're talking about No- ehemmm... No one) and there's no Imaginary and Useless Characters in Eternum so... yeah
Sometimes I am thinking of going Gertrude path like Pitrik...
Most people and the little fella below disagree. But tastes are tastes.
But jokes aside, keep in my Oailt was his first game. You can clearly see the increase in quality the more you play. If you didn't finish it, then I recommend replaying it.
Eternum is different, because besides being HS2 instead HS1, Caribdis is also way more experienced than what he was when he started Oailt. Also to use his words, Oailt was made on a small cheap laptop, while with Eternum he already has a decent workstation.
So I don't wanna be that guy, but apparently the custom last name in the gallery replays still isn't working and defaults to "Richards" dispite being labelled correctly in the gallery rpys as far as I know. I tried changing this myself (because I'm bored and I'm almost out of copium) but I can't figure out where the replays are getting the variables from. I know this isn't a big deal and most people won't care, but I think this game deserves to be as flawless as possible.
Think he meant the last name that you can replace at the beginning defaulting to Richards when you replay a scene from the gallery or something (I use full defaults so I wouldn't know lol)...
I meant custom last name as in changing it at the beginning where you name your mc, which was added a few updates ago and has been broken for the replays ever since. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
Thank you but I'm aware of that workaround and I'm not too proud of my own ugly ass last name to be so fixated on forcing it.
It was more of a bug report, because I think this isn't intended. I'm not on his discord but I thought he would lurk this forum.
We could possibly celebrate a progress update or a sneak peak post. I mean it's a Once in a Lifetime two dozen times in a century opportunity. *This post will automatically delete itself if Cari won't post something today*
