VN Ren'Py Eternum [v0.8.0] [Caribdis]

[Elhemeer]

5. Reincarnation: Maximo's kid awaits us to be reincarnated. LES GOOOOOOOOOO!

This is the most possible option! I bet my 5k dollars

This would actually be my least-favorite result, and one that might turn me off to the rest of the game.

Obviously it was mostly a joke to both of you, but the idea that the premise of the game is starting over in a future where you've been reborn doesn't interest me even as an interlude. I'd rather the body dies and you remain only alive in Eternum -- like Thanatos -- than something of that nature.

Personally, I don't think that's very likely. I think either limbo time before saving yourself or body saved and in hospital on life support while mind trapped in Eternum until the girls (probably Nova) find you are the two most ... logical(?) results for the continuation of this story. Honestly, maybe if MC had consummated the Harem before this it would be okay for the body to die, and eventually they'd all live in the Eternum world when it's saved, but as it stands it doesn't really feel like Caribdis-style storytelling for MC to be permanently separated from his girls. The only other thought that comes to mind is he is trapped in Eternum and the body does die, but he eventually (probably with Calipso's help) is able to bring his Eternum body back to Earth ... more of a resurrection than a reincarnation in that sense. That path would also be one I would probably struggle with at first.

Translation... You don't want to be cuckolded by future suitors who may try to sweep your waifu off their feets while Maximo's kid grows up.

Just say that.

I mean, that's not wrong, but that's not why I don't like the idea.

As my sig probably hints, the idea of reincarnating and 18 years from "now" hooking up with the children of Alex, Nancy and/or Nova doesn't exactly turn me off ... not having children of Dahlia, Annie and Luna to join them makes me sad.

But really, mostly it's the lack of choice for the player to avoid being shot, so such a harsh penalty doesn't seem to fit the nature of the game, nor the nature of Caribdis' storytelling up to this point.

But yea, they're my girls now. They don't deserve to be abandoned, and no-one else deserves them.

It would also be against the entire "break the cycle"/"move forward" theming that the entire story seems to be about if we end up having to relive another cycle (if it is indeed a loop, though I really have my doubts about it. Even more so now that Limbo's existence has been introduced in the story).

Bless your heart! That statement doesn't make a lick of sense.

If your skin is that thin, then the offtopic thread definitely isn't for you.

lmao fact, when i was reading my post before sending i too saw that and was like "how does that even make any sense" but it was too hilarious to edit XD
as for thin skin part i think we gonna have to agree to disagree, there is fine line between being easily offended and being too old for that kind of shit. The kind of ridicule you were attempting is even older than me, that didnt bother me and the first time i simply ignored, second time implied you insisting on that narrative until you get the reaction so i had to provide one otherwise i feel like you will keep posting same shit as if i am not getting the memo. But bottom line is that i probably agree with you, if the off topic thread is meant just to make shitposts like one you described thats not for me.

Here too, everything may not be so dramatic.

I hope there is a h-scene that uses the polyjuice potion. Imagine one of the girls drinking the polyjuice potion and transforming into Idriel for hot sexy sex.

Alternatively we can magically get our inventory sent to the real world, to accidentally spill the vat on a certain someone to get a... certain Idriel cosplay



(pls refer to Dorfnutter and his blursed gallery for reference. Or don't. Definitely don't actually...)

Cosplay? What are you on about?



This IS Idriel's true face without the blindfold.

 

[Kame-Sennin]

I don't think Calypso is an NPC

Well, I still suspect Orion is talking to a child version of himself here:



So...

when u think part 8 might come out this year some one told me it might come out late this year ?

never gets easier, no matter how many times I see it.

So...

Him talking to a child version of himself does not solely lean towards a self-loop. Again, Limbo exists outside of time, heavily implying that past, present, future, and possibly even alternate timelines can be seen through it. And given that Orion seems to be drawn there by Idriel and the Dead, it wouldn't be farfetched for him to basically see himself in the past (with his present self possibly acting as some sort of dream figment to his past self or something like the Syndicate which comes and goes).

Man this visual novel is so good! I found this game from a fellow user's signature here in the F95 forums a week ago. Now I can't get enough of the chapters. The story constantly shifts from light to deep discussions, from playful and happy to dark and serious, and there's comedic jokes to lighten up the plot when it may stay at a certain vibe for too long. This constant shift of emotion is exhilarating! I find myself caring a lot more about the story than the actual porn itself. Albeit I think it's my first time reading a harem visual novel, so I'm not used to having them all as I prefer pursuing a certain lovely woman and only her (not that I'm complaining tho).

This game's definitely up in my top contenders. It'd be pretty hard to beat. The story, the visual graphics, the animations, the sound design, just about everything is on top gear. Hoping for a lot more chapters to come!

God damnit. After finishing 0.6 I didnt feel like playing any other VN. After a while it past and played some other ones (none so good as this one). Now finished 0.7 and again I dont feel like playing anything else anymore. Eternum and also Caribdis as a developer really are top notch.

 

[Tyson Mikel]

I don't think Calypso is an NPC

Why? You want to share her with someone?

 

[VaderExMachina]

with current dev time, estimates are around october or november

If we get our first progress report/update for 0.8 around the week after Public Release or at the tail end of this month...then it'll be likely as VaderExMachina said: around October or November this year.

only bad thing is that, with this estimate, then 0.9 will be out around june or july 2025, and if it comes out in july i fear we may not get 0.10 before january 2026 unless cari's willing to speed up again.

Well if he starts doing full threesomes around 0.9 then he might consider taking a hatchet to the number of scenes for a while, which would reduce dev time a little bit and keep him on that 2 updates per year quota.

If not...well, them's the breaks.
