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

[Deleted member 5730975]

Not really, it could easily be made incest with the family being changed to our Aunt and Cousins. Very little of the story would have to be changed

That is not true. Orion seems to be some kind of lab rat or artificial construct with ties to the founder.

In the warthogs server there is a very brief scene of the founder interacting with Orion when he was a child. You can see this when you use the flashback tool on the MC. There is a dream scene where Orion is in a room with dead bodies and he himself is one of the dead bodies - it is one of those 'scenes where the NPCs ask orion for help.

Based on that incest at least with Orion and Nancy/Dalia/Penny is not going to fit the story. The game was not written with incest in mind so trying to force it everywhere is not a good idea.

I hope Penelope gets in on the investigation soon, since she's studying for a degree in journalism, i imagine she'd be interested to find out what's going on. Plus it'd be nice to have a conversation with her about the topic of journalism, since up to now it's primarily been about her modeling stuff.

At the same time, if she were to dig deeper alongside her new bestie (and company) and her crush, the secrets Ulysses is hiding will shock her. At worst, it might put a target on her back, along with everybody else. Wonder how she'll react upon learning of the earth shattering fact at the end of v0.5.

To date this is true, but not knowing the future is what has stopped me from properly considering coding such a custom patch within SanchoMod. We'll see how things go in the next few updates. "West Virginia" Eternum is likely possible.

Well, imho, you summarizing that it would be forced is nonsense given the evidence you've provided is the thinnest worth consideration to date. Cherry-picking a few bits of a dream sequence out of 99% of the current content does not provide much of a foundation... again, imho. Just my opinion which doesn't mean jack of course, but it might be worth consideration.

Otherwise stating that the VN "was not written with incest in mind" is a huge no-shit statement, that's obvious to all and why a proper patch would be required to make it so. No one is suggesting making Annie the MC's uncle.

I'm curious why people are so often of the opinion that the AVN was written with incest in mind - why some people believe EVERY AVN is written with incest in mind, but the Dev simply doesn't put it in up front to comply with some site's terms of service.

Just because that is one's fetish doesn't mean that every AVN writer shares that fetish and seeks to produce something that can easily cater to it with just a word change or two here and there.

Can we accept games as they are once in a while rather than trying to recast every damn one of them to meet our individual kinks?

Are you new 'round here? (just yankin' your chain bud)

TBH, it's one of the reason I modded a few true i-VNs... to try and sprinkle a bit more variety in the public catalog. I've personally not committed to that alteration with Eternum, much as I haven't with TFMG. All I was getting at is that it is certainly possible with this particular layup...Nancy could easily be altered which has D & P a no-brainer. That's my only point, I've done nothing to commit to such a situation though... Caribdis (and team) and I are on too good of terms for me to yank the rug from under him.

It can be done with any AVN. I was going to qualify that with "where the MC lives with at least one woman", but even that isn't necessary. I'm just a bit flabbergasted that people see it everywhere and insist that a patch be made to give it to them because they weren't able give it to their real life sister/mother/cousin/aunt/grandma.

It's not that I won't play such AVNs, or patch one now and again if it is clear that the Dev really did write it that way and is only appeasing Patreon, I just don't have to fuck my pretend sister in every game I play.

Indeed. There's always "mom".

That's not an "insult facepalm" (I post those as a picture), just a "well, you're probably right about that with this crowd!"

Bud, no worries... I don't get offended by silly icons even if you or anyone else did/does mean that. You and I have always known we are bantering/chattin' with some underlying humor in almost every convo we have... that's known by default.

How about this then? It is from the dev's profile page. I dont understand why people feel the need to add incest in everything. There are tons of other games with incest. It would be forced as it does not align with what the dev has in mind for the game.

I am good with patches that align with the dev's plans for the game but I am strongly against adding anything that strays away from what the game is trying to be.

Bud, you are presenting evidence for a mute point. I already stated:

" Otherwise stating that the VN "was not written with incest in mind" is a huge no-shit statement "

That is not being contested by me, neither is if it's warranted. My point was addressing the topic of if it's possible to code proper and seamless... and it very well is, regardless of opinion.

But wouldn't the Mona Lisa look better with more cleavage? I'm sure that's what DaVinci would have done if he could have gotten away with it back then.

Ah my bad. I misunderstood what you are saying.

An incest patch makes sense if dalia and penny were adopted by nancy because of patron - I would definitely want a patch for that. However making Orion Nancy's son would probably not make sense because it seems to me like the dev has a different backstory for Orion in mind. Patches should enhance the game not alter it.

 

[Sancho1969]

...
Patches should enhance the game not alter it.

This opinion is fair and I also have that specific as the only point of coding SanchoMod for any VN I supply publicly... for enhancement. But we must all agree that it is opinion only. Others are calling for and will continue to call for alteration. Now, with that said, if it's going to be altered I would simply suggest that it's done proper and not by some shitty hack like most third-party patches do. Most patches require more than simply changing "landlady" to "mom"... there's actual sentence/paragraph replacement which means that individual must have authoring abilities that can adapt to the style of the developer/team. This is the difference between a proper "patch" and a shitty hack and slash which serves no one. On that I'm sure we can all agree regardless of which side of the fence we're on.

Then again, with some Devs, it looks like they've used "Google Translate" to convert their native language to English, in which case any hack could do it and your services would not be required.

Eternum would require someone like you to do it if it were to be done and done right. But, please don't. Or, if you do, please keep it to yourself.

 

[Elhemeer]

I don't think I've seen a collection of posts quite like this page, where there's apparently some antagonism (from a particular source) yet everyone seems to agree with what's being said anyway ...

EDIT: As for my haypenny: If it says Landlady, I expect an iPatch ... if not, I don't.

I think delivery matters.

This is a multinational board, so I give a lot of leeway for syntax issues, but even with that, at times, the way someone chooses to say something just doesn't get the point across as was possibly intended - even a point I might agree with or at least respect - and that gets the brain screwed up with a "what did he just say?" I think there was a bit of that going on today.

Aaaaw Thank you for putting the images of Nova instead of just writing her name, it was so kind of you to correct me, I'm so happy... Thank you! thank you! Thank you!

You win this round, Nova fucker

And Nancy, Penny, Annie, Alex, Luny, Dalia and soon... Calypso don't you let them out...
I may joke about being an obsessed Nova worshipper, but I would never let out any of the girls, they are all fantastic and I love all of them.
