Thank fucking God we finally got a sex scene, I was waiting for so long. I thought we were going to get it with Nova and I got blueballed so fucking hard. I really felt like the MC there. If there wasn't a sex scene in this update I was just going to stop following this until it came out because it's been like a year and a half.
Someones on a bullshit bender. Quick, do more cocaine!

Finally finished the update.

Dayum!

Seriously though, definitely felt good going to town (in many, many ways). Loved the variety of interactions in this chapter.

Also, I feel like I probably subconsciously guessed ... at least, I don't think I conciously knew, but I definitely didn't feel surprised ... more like "of course!".

Gonna be a long wait for the next chapter ...

Damn, you telling me every girl I fuck that isn't my girlfriend doesn't count as sex?
Holy fuck I'm still a virgin :PogChamp:
To me its all about how invested you are into the characters. I really dont care for Eva and Maat Eva was there just to force a lewd scene in the game because otherwise there would be barely any lewds in the first version. Maat's only function was to progress with Nova. Remove them from the game entirely and I would not care one bit.

I think you should skip the next couple of updates and play them all in a batch later. The game is a bit slow (sometimes I think unnecessarily slow) but sex scenes are very likely to increase starting now. I think after the next couple of updates there will be a decent amount of them.

I stayed away from the forum until I caught up, and I get back in here and ... as always ... so much complaining about how little satisfaction MC is having.

That's fine. If that's the main reason why you want to play these games, I can see how all the "teasing" could upset you.

But I feel like every time a new chapter comes out for ANY highly-regarded AVN, MOST of which lean at least a little bit more into the story aspect, a wave of "WHERE'S THE BEEF" complaints litter the thread for a while. It's kinda sad.

First of all, if you been here a while and made it this far into the game and you're STILL complaining ... why are you still here?

If you just found the game recently, why did you stay?

Eternum is, first and foremost, a Sci-Fi HORROR story with lots of humor and a wicked teasing tone. Yes, it took this long for the MC to actually penetrate one of the LIs, but it's not like he's been blue balled the ENTIRE time ... but that's part of the humor of the game.

Like others have said, this chapter ramped up everything. The plot, the scary, the humor, and the sex. Won't be surprised if it ramps up more in the next chapter. That's how Once in a Lifetime played out (which was Gothic HORROR, for those who didn't know/forgot), so people shouldn't really be surprised by this from Caribdis anymore ...

I was under the assumption that the MC goes through rebirth upon his death time and time again in hopes to win, the only downside is that he forgets everything, except some traces here and there, each time. Those traces give him some intuition insights (choices for the player) to get better results this time, since this time is the last. The 100th time.
Intuition doesn't work that way. Orion (MC) should be showing moments where he believes that choosing a certain choice is the right call or he has a nagging feeling that choosing the alternative is wrong. And yet whenever he is about to make certain choices, there's always doubt or second-guessing or a lack of idea on how to proceed (or, in certain cases, he doesn't even get to choose (i.e. opening the door at the end of 0.3)). That's the opposite of being intuitive.

Also, aside from interpretations one could make regarding Idriel's "this time, it'll be the right one" phrase and "heads or tails" talk, the cryptic words of one of the Syndicate members saying "because we've seen it, because we've already tried," Luna not being able to see Orion's future (which yes, could be interpreted as him not having a future because he's currently in a loop...but that's just one of many possible interpretations), there's no other indication throughout the story that would imply Orion is indeed stuck in a cycle of death and rebirth. Usually in stories where the character is stuck in a cycle there's always foreshadowing or references to the fact, like the character experiencing deja vu or this nagging feeling that something that he is experiencing has happened before but he doesn't remember (and no, the temple thing in Warthogs doesn't count because that references the dream he had at the beginning of the story, when he met the Lady in Black for the first time). Or again, the character instinctively making certain choices without second thought or the character having an unexplainable urge to choose a certain choice when presented with the opportunity to choose (intuition).

Instead, the only thing that's being indicated throughout the story is that something happened in Orion's past, something crucial that he doesn't seem to remember, the only hints we have being Idriel and the voices telling him to remember, and the fact that Orion at some point met the Founder in the past if you chose him to go through the ReminiscecomblastitallIcan'tpronounceitright (a possible explanation for the scene being that he experienced a "Bleeding Case" while he was young, just like what happened to the creators of Alien back in the 70s when they "dreamt of Eternum" as said in the audio logs back in Andromeda, and that he had met the Founder during that time).

In fact, I'd argue that Caribdis has been emphasizing the importance of the past quite a lot throughout the story, more so than providing any possible indication that a loop is taking place. The flashback of Alex's time with her Baba (Grandma), Penny's ReminiscecomgoddammitCaribdiswhymakethishardtospell event at Warthogs (which drops some possible foreshadowing regarding Dalia's childhood blade and a certain Weapon of Atlas), uncovering the truth of the past as the central theme in the Mystery Server, Luna's event in 0.5 referencing not only her past but her family's past (which includes a possible lore drop regarding Luna's magical ancestry and her family's connection to the dead of Eternum), Orion's inquiry to Wyatt's past leading to that bombshell of an ending in this update...that's quite a lot, really.

I could be wrong with regards to the theory of course. But until there's any concrete indication or hint that shows up later on that Orion (MC) himself is stuck in a cycle...I can't really subscribe to it.

Same! I think the horror scenes are some of the best ones in Caribdis's games - I especially liked the scene in the hospital in Once in a Lifetime. But rather than zombies I would love to see a future game by Caribdis based on lovecraftian horrors or the SCP.
Tentacle people tentacle people... The possibilities.

Did you complimented her pencil? Asked about her Family, Hobbies, Religion, Tattoos ( in this order)? Stand up to the fucker of father "who I shall not name"? Hug her back? From what I remember this were all the correct answers to continue her path up to that point.
I don't think it's possible to reopen a path, so you need to restart the game, luckily it all happen in the early parts so you can still replay it if you want. :)

I don't think there's an order, I've always chosen these conversations totally randomly and got all the points anyway. Also I don't know if we have to ask everything, even though people who don't ask everything probably deserves to be excommunicated (well maybe less than people who don't hug back but these ones deserve to be tortured with the hydroxynosinemate toxin for sure).

Other than that, you said it all.

LOL!
I agree with you those so cruel that ignore Alex better or not comfort her should deserve the most excruciatingly and painful punishment, what I meant is that he needed to ask those specific questions to get the points, but I reckon that I wrongly worded it. :giggle:

Now that Alex's being brought up, there's something odd about a certain tattoo of hers. In her preview images for example:
1675629674048.png

1675629746248.png
The flower tattoo, below the left side of her neck and close to her left shoulder. It did appear briefly when she was presented at the pool iirc. But from v0.2 onwards it disappeared. And since she's saving up money to get a place away from her father, she can't afford to get it removed atm. Must've been an oversight.

I'm at the Halloween Party... Fuck yes, Jinx Costume. God If Nova and MC have a moment with her wearing that outfit... Yes, please...

But in all non-horniness. I've had to play the game with low volume but this time, I've got it up... The music playing while we are introduced to THE DK TRON ZLF-9000 is a bop... I love electro-swing. It feels like electronic in the hall of the mountain king too.

Akira's painted-on moustache is magnificent. Jacques Za Whipper vibes. Plus, I didn't know it was painted on until the MC mentioned it to Penny.

Edit:

Son of a bitch, did this lie detector device use to be a fog machine?

And holy shit he has a point, why NOT have a polygraph that detects lies and releases fog... Fog up your ass if you may. I think that's the term.

Edit 2:
I'm glad that the Neural Implant being implanted was clarified... It's weird because I could've sworn that there were mentions or implications that it could be removed early on in the game. It certainly makes the fact that people actually have shit implanted in their heads a little terrifying but I guess that's the price you pay for a fully immersive VR experience... But given how one dude is already dead because of Eternum (even if that dude deserved it)... Yeah, I don't think I'd ever have the guts to implant shit like that in real life... Although... Given how MC seems to be getting the SAO treatment where their Eternum Avatar's physical properties are transferring to the Meat Body, I may just change my mind.
