I don't know what this means
They're referring to a side character that ends up becoming a bit prominent past the halfway mark of the main story (and was even referenced by Orion in his intro monologue in this game). Some love him, some think he overstayed his welcome. Regardless, you be the judge if you end up playing the game.

/also taps Patreon's clarified guidelines on incest repeatedly

And that's why I won't ever support Patreon as a platform. To think that I won't ever have my Nancy, Dalia and Penny threesome...

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Not to mention that's even more stupid to also include step-family and adoption. It even isn't anything against the law, and some famous people actually have that kind of relationship... Not to mention that fantasy is fantasy, as long Eternum doesn't condone it, I don't see the issue but whatever.

When was that one hinted at?
I mean...one COULD argue that it was hinted at in the first few minutes of the game:

More concrete evidence comes after the recent scene with Annie in 0.6 though:

Then let's have Annie+luna+Nancy. It will be just possible to play incest ;)
Nancy will play mother to Annie and Luna :)
I hope at least role-playing games are allowed on patreon....

Yeah, unfortunately Patreon got that one covered as well...

...iirc it's one of the reasons why some devs got initially hit but are now back on Patreon (likely after they got warned or scrubbed their content).

It's definitely one of the more foreshadowed pairings along with Alex x Dalia and Penny x Nova.

According to the timeline made by one of Cari's patrons that the man himself vetted and pinned on his Discord, yes...

Explains that solo ending for OIALT then, where MC-kun was playing Eternum.

Still kinda funny, because add a couple of years and Orion might perceivably run into MC's (did he have a canon name anyway?) kids and bang them without consequence :LUL:

Doubt Orion would bang any more girls outside of his harem moving forward...except probably Idriel, but I feel like that's tied to some nightmare event or one of the endings later on.

I hope he fuck Idriel, she would be a wasted beauty if MC doesn't have her. I thought Caribdis would use the last scene in actual update to bring them together...

Then why give any choose at all?
And different endings
When you make a game in the same universe as another one, the most efficient way is to choose one of the endings and make it the canon one. Before Eternum (the avn) launched, people could play OIAL and consider the ending they wanted as their "ending" to the story because there wasn't anything contradicting it. That said, Caribdis probably said that the harem ending is the canon one even before releasing Eternum, but I dunno.

Because Cari tells his stories the same way old-school Japanese eroge devs approach theirs: in that despite the choices there is only one true route and that said route has a bigger chance of being carried to the next game. And that's because it's much easier to write around it instead of taking into account multiple permutations that won't even matter in the long run because at the end of the day these are visual novels with set stories and not large-ass RPGs where decisions affect worldbuilding and major story events. It's for that same reason that AVNs with branching paths never get a sequel of sorts unless they choose a canon ending or simply carry over superficial consequences that ultimately wouldn't matter.

That said, Eternum will likely be the same: it will have multiple endings, sure. But there is likely only one true ending that will essentially shape the events and conditions for the next game (provided said game takes place in the same universe as this one and OIAL, anyway).

Unless you're Type Moon and you get away with saying 'each route is a parallel universe from one another and thus canon' and then proceed to make alternate universes an essential part of the setting.
