I don't remember ever reading that at all about Penny.
However their scenes evolves, there is a significant difference though. for the confirmed virgins, MC has to build up to it and make the first moves before it actually happens. getting them in the mood and convince them to cross the line, even if they actually want it all along. they have to be "ready".
Penny and Alex, they are clearly different. they were driven by lust and initiated it themselves, even convinced themselves and made up their mind on their own, as if they already knew what sex feels like and they missed it. similarly to Nancy. they just go even further because of how good it feels with MC.
Penny going full sub probably because of her true kink and fantasies that she began having after experiencing sex, but waited to have the right partner to be able to.
He didn't fuck the shit out of Dalia. She fucked him for 90% of the scene, and he just finished it when she was exhausted
for the confirmed virgins, it was very explicitly detailed that they were virgins and MC is their first. So if I think it's not explicit for some girls, then it just means they were not virgins, and Caribdis just wanted to avoid the Anti-NTR brigade by avoiding the subject for those girls
actually red hair is a recessive gene so if their dad had black, dark or brown hair, they would have a high chance to not be red heads. Penny being blonde tells us that the dad had one gene for dark hair and one gene for blonde hair.
oh no, we're getting technicalities involved. That's my queue to drop the conversation cuz it ain't worth it anymore. Sorry, but her slamming her hips down on a large flesh spike is still her getting the "shit fucked out of her", regardless of whether she's doing more of the moving at first or not.

yeah, i just replayed the game once more and paid closer attention to find what i had in mind and as i already posted before (you probably just missed it) i clearly missremembered things and they all meshed up together. she never said she fooled around, she actually said she would never give someone bj just to kickstart her carrier, but then later during verita serum she explains how she waits for prince charming and in meantime just playing around with fingers and vibrators, and also when you just learn that her "boyfriend" is just an inside joke between her and hers gay friend she actually says she does not have time for relationships. Closest that is actually stated is that she actually had one boyfriend but it wasnt serious. still i have no confirmation that she was virgin and after replaying the lambo scene i doubt that she was, nobody would act so casual about it on their first time (talking about her teasing and way she was proposing it like its regular tuesday for her and not first time)

i think the crucial difference is that she was choosing the pace so if she was not comfortable with that level of intensity she would not go that far which would indicate she was not getting the shit fucked out of her, that statement would be more accurate for maat or penny lambo scene (behind the scene, not on lambo)
I'm blonde, my sister is brunette, my mother has complete black hair.
People should stop watching those animesque "what if those characters had children", hair colors doesn't necessary completly match those of your parents. Genes from your grand parents can be passed on too.
Your case kind of makes sense, as black color is dominant trait, and brunette means brown, right? and brown is also dominant, and you are blonde, so you are inferior, as blonde is recessive trait, so your father must also have brown hair, I think (his hair color could also be black, but I am more inclined to believe that it is brown), so your case makes sense.
But in the case of this game, Nancy has red hair (typically recessive), Penny has blonde (recessive like you, inferior like you), and Dalia has brown (dominant), so Nancy's husband could have black/brown hair, so this can happen.
So in conclusion, this can happen and you were right and I was wrong, I was too horny to think straight, my fault.
Since we're talking about Alex's or Penny's virginity again, I'll echo someone else's thought that Caribdis purposely didn't give a direct answer in the game about it.
We're explicitly told that the other girls (except Nancy, of course) are virgins, but nothing 100% accurate about Alex or Penny.
And this is done intentionally so that each player draws their own conclusions, because there are players who believe that LI's no virginity is 200% NTR
Like, Alex is a girl who hates her father and does everything to piss him off, from constant swearing and rude behavior, to getting tattoos all over her body.
She is very open and sexy (it's not hard for her to fall for Orion's ploy and do a little striptease showing her tattoos in chapter 2, or to give a blowjob standing 5 steps away from her father in chapter 4).
It's highly unlikely that such a girl has had no sexual experience at all in the past.
Or Penny, the school's first beauty and Miss “Instagram's Best Tits”, loves to party and hang out, and is trying to pursue a modeling career. In addition, Penny is already at university, and she is 20, not 18, as most of the other girls. Was she also sitting around waiting until our boy Orion came back to town?
Again, unlikely.
but that's if you're trying to use the logic of the normal world, but since we're discussing a porn game, it's possible that all the girls are virgins (even Nancy).

i already dissuaded myself from thinkins penny is virgin but lot of stuff you said can be argued. Its not just an empty blank state of penny being 20 and in university so we should assume generic stuff that happens in that age of time and that enviroment should be assumed. Penny is also blonde yet her character could not be further from your typical "hot blonde" character. yes she is in the modeling but cari goes out of the way to actually put it in the story that she started her instagram carrier with some spicy photos but eventually realized that she is not comfortable with that and does not want to be seen as if that is all she can contribute to society which is why she tones it down later. And she specifically states that she only had one relationship and it was not serious, these facts can imply she never got to "serious" stage of relationship before they broke up.
And Penny also says (under effects of truth potion so its safe to say she is not saying it just to feign innosence) that she is actually waiting for the right person aka prince charming. Does that mean she was waiting for orion this whole time, unlikely. but its not a stretch to say some serendipitous circumstances leading to orion being that prince charming is possibility.
All that being said, i dont think she is 100% virgin, i feel like there is lot of proof that she is but in the same time vibes just dont fit.
I mean the unspoken rule of adult games dictate that unless mentioned otherwise, the girls are virgin although I think their virginity are open to interpretation. Personally don't think Penny was a virgin, she had a boyfriend and seemed like a party animal in college. Her behaviour towards sex was also pretty clear from start and knew she wanted it hard but again her scene during veritaserum imply she wasn't just getting laid and just relied on toys.
For Alex, I think it's unlikely due to her personality, she is just someone very confident both in her body and personality and was also very closed off. She probably also saw everything wild going on the high class parties and probably even made out with someone to piss off her dad. Doubt she had went all the way with anyone tho, the "just the tip" excuse made it clear. She wanted to not lose charge to Orion despite being vulnerable for her first time.
Again it can be argued otherwise too and doubt Cari is gonna ever confirm or deny it and not something that matters lol.
Sure. If you fear of being banned from their patreon/etc, you can either report the thread and post the link there or DM me. (And delete you comment lol)

I think the whole vigin debate is pointless, cause it doesn't ruin their characters or change them in anyway, it isn't something that is talked about all the time in game, its just something that dosn't really matter imo. Its something only the person playing can judge and perceive for themselves.
I personally believe Penny and Alex are virgins, but if someone perceives it a different way, so be it. The game doesn't change, the story stays the same, and the beautiful relationships with the girls are still amazing no matter what you think on this subject.
nWo, I don't know how elite it is, sure it started with just Hogan, Hall, and Nash, but by the end, half of the WCW Roster had joined them at one point or another, even guys who wasn't winning many wrestling matches. Or is this a different nWo?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's what it is. If I remember correctly, when Orion was practicing traveling between his world and Eternum, he mentioned that he couldn't travel between servers. Only from a server he thinks about, then back to his world and vice versa. Which, in all honesty, doesn't make much sense to me. How did he travel from server to server with Alex during her scene, without going back to his world?
What i'm more curious about is world hopping or dimension hopping was apparently an ability those who were descended from Anima, Calypso's ancestor and her nemesis (forgot his name) so, is Orion somehow related to Calypso or the nemesis?
at this point, we can only speculate about that power. he either got it because Calypso is "his weapon", and she shared the power with him, but a worse version than she got. or he has the power innately and he is either part of the Immortals, or a descendant of Anima, Yliar or the hero that saved Anima. two of those would make him related to Calypso, so Patreon rules would prevent lewd scenes though. Unless the hero had kids from outside his marriage with Anima.
couldn't find it. the voice is familiar, might be from the singer in one of the other songs in the game. but she didn't seem to have released it on streaming platforms or youtube.
That doesn't make sense, because she liked (although was surprised) that he reacted so positively, but still tells him it's a joke. If he reacted negatively, and she admitted it was a joke, she makes a good point about him cumming inside girls so freely. There's no reason for her to lie at all if he reacts positively.
actually there is a very good reason, for her, to lie to him about it :
if she never wanted to keep it before and just planned to get an abortion alone without getting him involved. especially if she wanted to prioritize her swimming career, with the Olympics coming up.
but now that he confessed, she might not know what to decide anymore, and would have to think it all over again.
what do you mean ? you can talk things out with him, man to man. and you can set him on a very good course at the end of the update. and he is very happy with his new position.
the way that scene played out, imho, was more like she was caught and had to tell him, but ended up not being able to handle his reaction and backed out using the joke excuse. that's not the kind of thing someone like her would joke about in that kind of intimate moment. she can be very playful, but she knows when to be serious.
The danger for the girls gets addressed, but a bit too late. He only talks with Nova about it AFTER they returned, when I was thinking right away "WTF are you guys doing, you could die for real now! Go back and use the conventional way!"
Also the explanation why he does it with Dalia feels pretty cheap. "Because who knows what Ulysses is doing with the implants!" "Yes, that makes sense." What? No it doesn't! How can whatever they do be worse than actually dying? Go back and get your suits, for Christ sake!
It really made Orion feel stupid and contradicted the lesson he supposedly JUST learned from his near-death in the beginning. So...yeah...that was - in my opinion - the weakest point of the update, but at least it got addressed at the end instead of not at all, which would've been even worse.
when he brings Nova by accident the first time, he is not sure if it's their real bodies. he had a hint with the police not having found the victim's body, but he was still under the shock of almost dying and getting the new power to fully process it.
but taking Dalia was super stupid for sure. and it was just to save a few minutes even though their contact was late anyway once Jerry confirmed the delay, they could have left and gone home to wear the E-suits.
but MC makes tons of stupid decisions since the beginning. that's part of his character.
The update was pretty good, but ngl cari could probably dedicated the time spent on that stanley parable parody on the aftermath of getting shot and talking about that with the girls instead of just brushing it off, that was very out of character from nancy and the others.
actually, that stanley parable scene was part of the aftermath of getting shot. that's how his mind processed and showed him his new priorities in life having to go through his worst fears means by extension that he is now aware of what really matters to him.
but I agree there should have been a scene specifically for the girls' and Chang's reaction.
10 minutes, huh?
I uh...I guess this is a bad time to point out you could just have hit the up or down arrow on your keyboard and then hit enter to select a choice, eh?
that doesn't work as easily as you seem to think that's how i did it, but you need to be really fast between arrow and enter.
the number keys might work better though.
did not know that could work. i kept scrolling to previous page and trying to predict click until eventually nail it. But if this is true and it works and you are not just trolling then this will definitely help me through it on other playthroughs
you don't need that to continue playing. that's just a funny joke from the dev, you end up making the forced choice anyway.
when it happens again later on, you get a different "outcome" but it doesn't matter at all, it's just flavor text.
And after Nova realizing she actually likes watching I'm kinda afraid Cari will force her as an addition to single sex scenes with other girls. Threesome with Penny is kinda obvious, but it looks like Annie and Alex are also on the table - if it happens laaater on then fine, but if we gonna get Nova threesome every episode it'll be kinda weird.
she will not be forced into every threesome. she could just watch it through a screen after hacking the devices/cameras around MC if watching is her new kink, she doesn't necessarily need to be there. she could even record it for later.
Anyone else surprised / disappointed we didn't get a shot of Chang in a body cast with a shattered pelvis after his "tonight's the night!" date with Micaela?
One of the things that I tought that didnt keep up with the quality of the game was the lewd scenes, and I think this two latest updates (and the Alex one in her flat) have improved a lot in general.
I feel the same with Alex. Yes, she had a lewd scene, but we didnt spend time with her, and she didnt have much screen time last update, I dont like that.
what do you mean ? Alex got a great scene here. especially the talk that happens afterwards. a quickie turning into her most romantic scene. she didn't get shafted at all.
and like she pointed out, it doesn't always have to be a whole adventure before they can fool around and have fun.
How can the founder not have unlimited power if he is able to give all "players" kinda godlike powers (and able to take them away like when they die). I feel like there something i dont understand
He is far from being omnipotent. He is powerful, but he doesn't give powers, nor does he take them away. it's the players themselves that grow powerful, and they lose it all when they die. the Founder doesn't do anything besides providing new astral bodies.
What im talking about is - lets say its as you implied - and some worlds allow people to have magic. So Annie has powerful Magic on Ion and is able to nuke entire countrys.
So she trains and whenever she is in a world with similar rules - allowing magic - she has access to these part of her powers as its something coming from herself.
But if this would be the case, why/how do they lose their powers when they die and are lvl 1 again? Thats the conusing part for me. The levels and everything are aguably all just made up by the implant/founder/ulysess but if the magic isnt connected to that why do they lose their powers when dead?
Dalia and Nova were both bad examples as they dont have any magical abilities and rely on their real life abilitys.
Maybe the implant has some kind of restriction enabled? Like annie would always (im magic worlds) be able to use this kind of power but if the implant sets her at level 1, her power gets restriced? I dunno ..
they lose their powers because they lose the body. if the astral body dies, they get a brand new one, completely blank of any power.
like in any perma death game. you lose your character, and your corpse can be looted by others. you lose your equipped items too, it seems. but not what was in your inventory ?
but even if you lose the body with the powers, the soul/mind still has the knowledge. so for spells, Annie should remember all her spells, but she cannot cast them without having enough mana or magic power, I guess. She can die once in the story, but she will still be able to cast the spell of mass destruction and her barrier afterwards.
Atemsiel, who makes Stormside, is an incredible animator too, might be a notch higher. and he made the major scene in the latest companion of darkness update.
guys it is normal getting the luna card in the gallery grey? it seems like her path is closed but I think I did nothing wrong, does it happen normally or I did smt wrong?
(and one of my old theories was that if we ever get to Caly's realm - assuming it existed - then that would be a good time for us to get a massive infodump regarding the gems, compatibility rating, and Orion's powers and how it ties to his "deteriorating" physical condition).
Honestly, the thing with Alex in this update, I don't think she was joking about the pregnancy. She wanted to get Orion's reaction to it to see whether or not she should keep it. She even said it was a problem she could "handle herself", which in that context typically means going to the clinic and getting the procedure with no one the wiser.
agreed about the first part. but I don't think she wanted to see MC's reaction. She probably admitted it because he asked directly, and regretted it immediately, and was surprised by his reaction and couldn't handle it for the moment. and yeah, she probably wanted to abort it behind his back at first.
The Spidey fan in me finds that picture unbelievable for several reasons, not the least of which are that he had the money to spend on food in a sit-down burger place AND got 2 burgers, fries, and a drink (unless he's being treated), and that he actually had time to spend scarfing down the food. The poor bastard routinely only grabs a hotdog or something from street vendors as he swings around and his luck is such that he almost always only manages to finish half of it at most before he has to drop it and go save someone.
Miles Morales is paying for him He doesn't have any money after being sent to another reality. he doesn't hold back as he didn't eat for a few days after arriving
Someone said that the dialogue doesn't change even if you keep pregnancy content off so it was just a joke and don't think Cari will put a compulsory pregnancy middle of game. Besides Orion's reaction was positive and supportive, no reason for Alex to clarify it's a joke. It was probably put there as a reminder that creampies will affect later game and warning for Orion. Pregnancy will likely remain an optional epilogue
that doesn't mean anything. maybe he just forgot to check to pregnancy variable. he missed out on quite a few variables even in this update.
and even if she is pregnant, it doesn't mean she has to keep it. she has her career to consider too. MC might not have a say in the final decision.
not possible. the way Luna speaks about it implies she still has quite a bit of time to decide and prepare. and it's not something she would jump in right after having her first time, anyway.
but because you ignored Nancy, she doesn't kickstart the harem in your playthough, so Nova is not open to threesomes as she was not talked into it by Nancy... you will miss out on Nova's content
any guesses how many more updates before the letter we receive becomes relevant (the one we have option to open or not that we get just before the casino heist)
Alex and Dalia maybe the one in next update, as it seems to have been hinted at quite strongly in 0.7 and 0.8. and the massage session seems to have been accepted by the three of them. Nancy and Annie could work as they both expressed interest in each other to MC. but it seems a bit early as their bond is not that strong yet.
4) Both Alex and Dalia scenes were done rigth. I do have an issue with both though because for the rest of the update Orion feels like he learned the lession and turned the new leaf, he even says so himself. Yet both with Alex and with dalia he felt just as forceful and for the lack of better word "rapey" as he was with Penny at the lambo. Not saying that it made the scenes worse, but i feel like if you wanted to do it this way maybe dont make him emphasize so much how he learned his lesson and changed his ways when he clearly still feels and acts the same.
Granted i think fingerbanging Penny in front of person in public when she outright says she does not want it is far worse than refusing to be teased and blueballed by girls that clearly initiated the intimacy and is just playing hard to get but i feel like it could have been done better or at least timed differently. Maybe these sex scenes would feel better for me if done before he got shot. thats just me.
What do you mean? MC was not forceful at all. it's Alex that insisted and convinces him for both the blowjob and the sex in the toilet stall... for Dalia, he gets her in the mood and flirts with her. though he pushes her boundaries by asking for more at each step, she is always in control and is more than willing after the confession. and for Penny, she was driven by lust entirely, and convinced herself to do it. MC had barely only needed to agree with her and asked her what she was thinking. the fingering could be seen as blurring the lines, but she seems more embarrassed than rejecting it. when he asks her to tell him to stop, she doesn't... the public side of it made it hot, and she obviously has her submissive kink that factored into it as she already accepted him as her partner.
4) i did not care for the stanley parable at all. I dunno why, maybe it was just not done well, or placed badly toe to toe with a threesome, but i just wasnt vibing with it at all. And i finished the whole update three times now and i still dont get the point of it. I thought maybe orion used his powers and moved to alternate universe and we would later find out all the servers in eternum are not just part of one huge universe but also pieces of multiverse so in that way we at least get some lore explansive reward for that weird dream but no, apparently its just orions fears which somewhat make sense for harem playthrough but if by the time of dream orion already lost the chance with most of the girls its weird that he still fears things. Like if you deliberately avoid pursuing penny why would orion give a damn if she is dating a celebrity or not. The only thing i could somewhat understand is Luna's bit because even if orion does not love luna he still would not like to see her start using drugs etc.
probably just a matter of taste. you seem to understand the intent, and the value for the plot, at least. so it's just how it was about layed out.
but even if you're not on a harem path, it still makes sense. MC cares deeply about each girl, even if they are not in a relationship.
He grew up with Annie, Dalia and Penny. he has a soft spot for Luna and Alex because of what they went through growing up. We don't see Nancy, but she is mentioned.
But the weird thing is that Nova is never seen nor mentioned during the nightmare. Does MC not have a fear for her ?
You forgot Nova and Annie, they seem to spend lots of time together without MC. Penny and Luna also spend time shopping together.
and Calypso should also be included in the pairings at the moment, Calypso and Alex seems the most probable. Calypso seems to respect strong magic users, so Luna and Annie could be on the table. maybe even Penny if she improved as fast as it was implied.
Question about some 0.7 content: The choice between werewolves and vampires is also a choice to advance relationship with either Luna or Penelope. How crucial is this to the rest of the game? Does it lead to missed date/s with the one you didn't see or such or is just a matter of missing out on a +1.
that's actually a great question.
but there is no rule she has to be completely different from Annie. She could enjoy a wholesome vanilla scene. super romantic and gentle. she also seemed to enjoy making MC feel good and taking the matter into her own hands. so she might have some kind of dominating side. or it could just be CFNM
Do you guys think there will be any problems with the girls when the harem is revealed to them?
Nancy is obviously no problem and already prepared Nova so these two are clear already
Annie seems to at least very strongly suspect it already and doesnt mention it so i think shes fine too
Calypso seems to be fine with and used to harems and orion having "maidens"
Penny seems to be into sharing and possibly even into her man having a harem, following the footsteps of her mother, shes fine with it too
Luna got the fast forward cheatcode due to her vision and seems to get used to the idea, no problems here
Alex is 100% fine with sharing with Dalia lol, not sure how she feels about a whole harem but orion is her daddy already anyway, too late to back out maybe some minor upset but i think not too much of a big deal and she may suspects it already too
Dalia however seems to be the only one who's entirely cluesless (penny maybe too but shes different) and didnt even at all got what alex implied with her messages lol, shes the only one i could imagine getting a bit more upset about the situation and i cant wait for her to get really competitive with penny
No issues except for Dalia, until Alex converts her after their threesome.
Annie is not dumb. she knows they all like MC and if you fail the dinner date, she says that she was ready to share with the other harem girls, but she didn't want MC to get girls outside of the harem.
Luna is not into it at all, but the vision corrupted her seeing herself being happy and accepting of the situation in that unconventional relationship opened her mind to it.
everyone is probably aware that the others are interested in MC at the very least. so they had time to consider that for a while.
Is the flashback shot from Ulysses HQ in the real world tho? Because the only time we saw that locale was when Orion was talking about Eternum in 0.1, but for all we know that shot could've been in one of Ulysses' strongholds/bases (or possibly the Founder's stronghold/base) in Eternum itself.
if it was in Eternum, then MC wouldn't know what it looks like. Unless they have it in promotion pictures ? but even then he doesn't seem like he was very dedicated in following news and info about the game. or that HQ shot could also just be for the players, and not part of MC's imagination.
he doesn't explicitly say that she is part of the harem. she may be super important to the plot but not to the harem. she could die or disappear at some point. like being absorbed by MC for her powers or sacrificing herself for him. cleansing the gems or something.
Also the question remains if Orion can't use his power in Hyril'ar because he's barely alive, or if Hyril'ar is somehow blocking his ability to teleport (we know that Hyril'ar is outside Eternum's "network", but it shouldn't affect Orion's powers).
maybe he needs Calypso to do it. either she needs to be conscious. or she needs to have more magic power available. or they need to combine both of their powers together to make the jump possible. if Anima forbid traveling to other worlds and isolated her world, there could be some kind of condition or barrier to overcome.
I originally posted this in the Eternum subreddit, but they have a dumb rule where you're not allowed to talk about spoilers, even if it's spoiler tagged and hidden, so I'll post it here.
Chang is aware that all the girls are interested in MC and that he isn't fully committed to one. He knows that they are competing for MC's attention.
with Dalia, it was just a kiss in the heat of the moment, a spur of the moment thing, that happened only once.
and with Annie, it's "just" a date. it's not a marriage proposal. it should allow them to get to know each other with a romantic mindset, instead of just being friends. Even if there is a chance she might get hurt, she is also the one that had an obvious crush on MC for years, so he knows she wants to take the chance even with the risks.
I think she is only being considered as "others" in gallery because she isn't part of main world of Orion where he interacts with other girls. She is like Eternum exclusive, will likely change in future and we'll see her portrait along with other girls
the other girls had their LI page setup even before you can really get on their path. it's known from the start that they are potential LI and potential members of the harem.
Calypso would have had her LI page too once she was found. It's weird to delay that for so long.
no, we only know she can't see the image that Idriel projects in MC's mind to communicate with him. but she doesn't project herself in the worlds when speaking to MC, so it's normal she can't be seen by anyone else.
btw why are orion's thoughts about chop chop always so shitty?
The guy literally never scammed, even the x-ray glasses worked, the pet increased luna's mana and the pendant was just epic. The body change potion worked flawlessly too
Besides the fact that it was a great update and Caribdis as always loves to torment us with his cliffhangers and breaks at the most interesting moments, I noticed one thing.
This is MC, who began to behave more and more arrogantly and even getting a bullet from two lowlives did not relieve his overconfidence.
He threatens El Coyote that he can take the artifact and the Gem, and moreover, he acts completely irresponsibly, moving to Eternum without an implant. And even more retarded, that he did it with Dalia, putting her life at risk. We know that implants are tricky and can leave your consciousness in Eternum, but without an implant, death in Eternum is final and irrevocable.
I don't have Dalia's route active, but suppose the consequences for her are worse on it, since Hassan will reject her as "impure" and send her to the incubator, because we had full scenes with her, right? If Orion is ready to risk himself, then he should have gathered his senses and dissuaded Dalia.
I hope that after fight with Thanatos, MC will touch some grass and come to his senses.
it's a work in progress. MC's behavior will not change overnight. He is still processing and learning.
He is aware of his shortcomings. and being cocky is in his character. it served him well with the girls, so he won't lose that trait anytime soon.
he tries to be careful and not drop his guard though. stays alert as much as possible.
and it worked. that's how he was able to dodge Thanatos' ambush.
he still makes dumb decisions, though
So... Penny, Alex and ofc Nancy was experienced from the start. We unpacked Nova in 0.7, Dalia and Annie in 0.8.
Only Luna left, impregnable fortress of virginity
I don't think he can teleport back to Kredon in a instant to save his ass in the middle of action, like the ending with Thanatos since he needs to be calm and focus on his destination for a while.
not really. He teleported instantly when surprised by Nova, and while fucking Alex. he wasn't calm.
and he also teleported spontaneously when dying both times.
he didn't need to focus on his destination in those cases.
so he should be able to do it instantly like Goku
Will the LI be able to die from now on because I made a wrong choice somewhere ?
Will the MC will even let them go again after what happened with Nova and Dalia ?
she was said to be one of the highest level in the game. she played the game for 8 years. she was rich enough to give MC that much money.
and she was constantly hinted to be very powerful. just that she was also constantly put in situation where she couldn't use her power.
she had honed those two spells for years.
I really like that doing the harem path requires you to also help out a male character like Jerry. He was an ass but you can make him a better person and sort of become his friend. And of course, doing this makes sure Jerry stops pestering Dalia.
Caribdis did something similar in Once in a Lifetime, but I didn't like how you literally had to brainwash the bully and the fat kid to continue the harem route.
he didn't bring everyone, he doesn't have access to the game. it's not really Chang's fault. It's MC that speaks too loud, and other people overheard the password and the details on how to access the cove.
everyone around is a witness that the guys asks for it. taunting MC in a fight. it's not just false taunts without believing MC would do it. they were actual taunts thinking MC couldn't do it...
it is very different from what you describe.
I feel like its batshit crazy that dalia just forgives orion for "taking a dip" in the cabin without consent considering how many little things just outright remove her from the path.
she doesn't "just" forgive him. you lose her path for good, and it takes weeks for her to calm down.
she doesn't really forgive him when she tells him. she does when he came to save her in the palace gardens. that hug was it.
I genuinely wouldn't be surprised in 0.9 if either
A) The royal family of Calypso's finds out Orion has powers similar to theirs and is convinced he is a spy for the Immortals and attempting to overthrow them, which could lead to his imprisonment in the castle until the lore dump is satisfied and the plot can move on
Or, the funny one...
B) The castle finds out that not only did Orion see their royal princess and heir to the throne naked, she touched his dick and stroked him off, causing a scandal and forcing Calypso to be under house arrest (for possibly a decade, by her own accord), and even worse to Orion lmao.
or MC and Calypso tell everyone that MC freed her from her sealed box, and he also helped her teleport back to her realm. So he essentially is the one that brought her back to them. and he could be welcome as a hero after that
And then MC abandons Jerry without a second thought, even if you save him earlier, because you found Dahlia. Which is fine, but it pretty much invalidates any care you showed for him moments before and cuts the adventure short.
he doesn't abandon Jerry. he saves him, and then tells him to go check the incubation rooms and then immediately escape using an Exit Portal. so by the time MC finds Dalia, Jerry should already be long gone. MC had no reason to believe Jerry would still be there.
Yes, it's an easy task to fucked things up in Enernum. And people dare to say that this is a "linear harem game without branching and choice."
Anyway, I will need a fresh start with full guide including 0.9
yeah, you will need to get on Dalia's path if you want Alex's threesome and her being ok with the harem Alex and Nova threesome can't happen without Dalia first
well, flirting with another girl outside of the harem right in front of her, just on the night she expects your full attention, and when she decided to give herself to you... while already knowing she will have to share you with the other harem members.
of course, it's enough to fuck the path with "just that"
Eva was in 0.6, not 0.7
they have no reason to join the harem. they were just fillers for lewd scenes in the early chapters.
and given how Dalia and Alex look at Eva in that scene, you already know that the door is closed to her
it would make zero sense given the character development. It would also be waste of cari's time to work on "others" when there is so much actual canon stuff to be written. after everything that happened and his near death experience in the chinatown Orion realizes what is important to him and what he wants. From this point on flirting with others will be cause for punishment and losing the path of main girls, not something to be rewarded. As i said we are in endgame, from here on now its the chase to finish line and trying to get that perfect happy ending which is canonically going to be harem ending. I dont see cari wasting time making full scenes with random characters this late in development when its clear what the right choices are. In early updates it makes sense, Orion is new to town, does not even know any of girls or is only getting to know them again (he knows penny and dalia as little kids, not grown ups that they are) so fucking around when it does not hurt anyone makes sense. at this point fucking maat would only break hearts and he already promised nancy he would never do that so narratively it is impossible. in fact id be disappointed if i see cari waste time writing it as posibility cause it just means waiting that much longer for new update because of scenes that we all know are filler
you're mostly right, but you can still be on every girl's path, but not have the harem enabled.
and you could also still be single.
so there might be some side girl content for the single MC, or the MC that didn't commit to the harem and fucked up. actually, that could be the catalyst for MC losing everyone if he chose not to accept the harem.
so any new earworms for you guys? Unironically as much as we all have something negative to say about dalia's route's each time she gets a new scene i get a new earworm XD the song from her scene is not just perfect for dalia but also just amazing song in itself. ive been listening to it for days
this time the music was rather underwhelming, so only two or three songs were good. both songs from Annie's date and the one from Dalia's sex scene.
the others felt generic. Even the one during Alex' scenes
the fact that there was no scene with the Mc telling the girls that he got shot and almost died and to make it worse everybody took it as if it was another tuesday , was a big let down .
i really expected a bit more of an emotionally scene from everybody after Mc traumatic experience .
well, Thanatos obviously fears Calypso's magic as he started by restraining her and sealing her magic before ambushing MC... he underestimated MC, so if he didn't mind her magic, he could just backstabd MC and move on.
also, we don't know how he appeared on the Ogygia server. because otherwise MC or Calypso could just teleport him away and seal him somewhere like that. Maybe even bring him to Hyril'ar and have the elves deal with him
when he talks about making a new world, he says "we", so maybe he is part of the syndicate or some similar group. even if Bardot says that he acts alone.
Understandable complaints about this update. This is just me assuming things, but I feel like this update was more so of a showcase of the new (engine?) and the increased production value to his game. They were a bit behind schedule this time around, so they might've gotten a bit carried away with experimentation and put less emphasis on the writing, which did take a hit in this update. Or it could've been a creative decision to slow down the pace of the plot, who knows. I have faith in Caribdis for the next update, his track record has been top notch.
MC and Penny are not there yet. She also is still a confident and playful girl outside of bed, as you can see in the text exchanges that happened just after her scene.
Also, some of the affection you are talking about could have happened offscreen as it's already been a week. MC also has his near death experience, so they might both had some thinking to do.
for now, she only asked for rough sex. she didn't completely submit yet. it might happen in the next session.
and she already planned it. so even if she is already thinking of submitting, she doesn't need her future master to provide in the meantime as she can look forward and focus on that future date.
I think you made some interesting points, even if others disagree, but you might have been a bit too fast.
not even Nova. she was more shocked about being teleported in Eternum, and when MC mentioned he got shot, she shouted "WE GOT SHOT" instead. thinking about herself and her own predicament.
even if it was for the comedic effect, it was still incredibly selfish and thoughtless for Nova. VERY out of character for her.
ok, so i know i said i did not like the stanley parabole thing but i see lot of people hate it and skip it as if it is pointless so i have to elaborate something here
You do not punch the guy to protect her or in self defence, you literally do it to be a dick and then double down on being a dick by using it as manipulative loophole.
not to be a dick. but to put him back in his place. he just lost to Dalia, but she got disqualified because of a stupid rule, and he still found the audacity to insult her, and taunt MC...
overestimating himself. MC showed him the reality.
so you actually do him a favor, opening his eyes to the truth
and honestly, MC using it to win the bet as a technicality felt more like trying to take her mind off of her bad day, instead of him trying to take advantage of her vulnerable state.
oh yeah absolutely, i was just trying to exaggerate to maximum how ridiculous it is to follow her path
obviously i like the spicy bet and its cool thing to have that option. One thing i want to say is that i am disappointed that not trying to manipulate dalia equals insta loss of her path. Like, okay give Orion option to get his way through these little loopholes i dont mind. But after replaying the game over and over and going through the same scenes especially after going back through the old scenes knowing how they develop i wish that you can just genuinely care for dalia and do things for her not for a bet. Like narratively speaking nothing needs to change and you can still end up in the same location without being manipulative asshole. For example instead of making spicy bet (option is already there to say "i dont need anything") make it look like you are doing it because you care for her. Then after competition just be there for her and she can give you BJ because she is grateful you are always there for her instead of honoring a bet that you scummed.
Ok yeah, when i write it down like this it does sound cringy and sappy
it shows just how hard it is to have her love MC. she have multiple road blocks, and needs a few planets to align for her to be in the right mindset to consider MC a potential candidate.
many psychological barriers had to be broken down first. she was so focused on her competitions, and she also had her taboos up as MC was like a brother, and she only ever saw him as that idiot childhood friend before. and even if she knew him before, he came back as a stranger after many years apart. they don't have anything in common any longer either.
so MC needs to thread a super thing needle to be able to have her. she is the hardest prize to get
However, unfortunately, we're dealing with AVN writers catering to (certainly here) anime pop-culture fanboys who honestly, don't have a clue. Just have to accept it and move on. I've only ever seen one VN do a D/s type relationship half-realistically....it's nearly all alpha male fantasy fullfillment catering to specific demographic.
if we have tis , it means MC is on Harem route with all the gals?? ow can we see if we are on harem path with all the girls? with previous Sancho Mod you were able to check it...with Joker we can't (or i can see anything about this...don't really know if the mod works right to say the truth...no green choice popped up for now..but i only played a tiny bit of the update...i'm just after the Sirens attak...and any tips for my sound issue? (can't hear any sound, but only a weird Tac noise every 30 sec...music works fine.thanks
no, there is no way to know. you just have to know and understand your playthrough. it's not hard. you should know where you stand with each girl you don't need a mod.
played it now, damn this update was amazing felt like in a cinema, top tier! but am I the only one who is disappointed with the dalia scene? I mean she talked always how tough she is, can take it way harder than penny but than even the gentle annie took it harder. (and in the last scene i see more orion ass than her haha)
felt like that alex scene was the best again,i dont know its my opinion but somehow it feels like that nancy and dalia going in the background (just with the scene)
what do you mean by take it harder ? she didn't take it. she fucks MC. MC just lies there passively. it's only at the very end, when she is exhausted that he takes over and shows her a glimpse of what's to come.
Penny tried to fuck MC at first, but she didn't last long and got tired very quickly, even before she came herself. MC took over and gave it to her hard.
for Annie, MC has to be gentle and slow for a while, until the second round when she gets on top. MC still holds back a lot until the end.
Dalia's next time will be very different. We can wonder who will fuck whom
10 000% can't say it enough.
except for quick break ups, he seems to try to stay away from drama.
but pulling off that emotional scene could have elevated the impact and allowed a good transition into the harem
it's only one point, it's doesn't matter. and you don't have to let her hit you to get the point, you get the point for complimenting her. you get hit either way, with or without the point.
but you don't need it at all to be on her path.
we don't know if they are the same as the ones in the story. seems logical to associate them, but it might just be bait.
or maybe they are now corrupted, hence their name, and they need to be cleanse to be useful to MC ?
Oh wait, the crew...nevermind I was thinking something else. I went with the navigator, although the parrot ended up being the brains there and he ended up being useless. Later some events made me think that the hooker might have been more useful than I thought she might but no idea how that plays out. But it's better to pick one of the guys because you can gain a point with Nova or Nancy depending on which you choose. Though I hated the guy that kept changing his name a bunch of times and called everything bad luck...he got on my nerves.
so if their dad had black, dark or brown hair, they would have a high chance to not be red heads. Penny being blonde tells us that the dad had one gene for dark hair and one gene for blonde hair.
