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

[T1NKYW1NKY]

With the revelation from a post above stating that Caribdis is contemplating/planning to set the story length "between 12 to 20 updates," we're likely gonna get more 0.5-style updates in the future alongside resolving plot points and such. Because apart from introducing more major players in the story, I don't know how you could stretch the plot that far without some sort of downtime interspersed between major arcs/story moments.

So to anyone hoping that we won't have any more downtime/relationship/harem-building episodes that'll "detract from the plot"...RIP I suppose.

there's still a lot of stuff for the game to reveal at this point. the 3rd weapon Hyas (I forgot the spelling), Orion's innate ability, the current political progress of the ERE and WRE, the secrets of the repeaters (I feel like they'll function like mike stabb in the future), the AI's and stuff, the weird dreams Orion has, Orion suddenly gaining a ton of mass, the bagel-brownie dispute I could go on. If it does have happen to get more updates like the slow-pace 0.5 I wouldn't mind. On the contrary, I'll love it even more since there is a possibility of fleshing out (heh) the characters already involved. I'm in it for the long haul

And all the different threesome combinations.

I dont want the game to go on forever - many adult games tend to drag. But I dont want this game to be rushed either. Based on the current pace of the story around 15 updates sounds perfect assuming we get a similar amount of content per update. I assume the game will be done in another ~4 years and I am fine with that.

I don't mind that too. On the contrary I actually welcome the downtime because it gives a little bit more focus on some character bonding with the cast without the sense of urgency hanging over their heads. That said, there were some people in this thread who didn't like 0.5 because it "disrupted the flow of the plot," and will likely say the same in any future updates that are similar to that. /shrugs Guess they think it's all "pointless filler" I suppose.

Bold of you to assume a foursome with Orion and the Carters isn't going to happen in one of those updates...or a fivesome if Annie gets dragged into the mix (lol).

I know, I know, but I remember that scene being bland, it was more fucking at turns, I want more, I want Nancy dominating every one in the room, I want Dalia and Penny fighting and trying to win Orion to end doing someone they never expect with each other, and I'm pretty sure that the game is gonna have a lot of threesomes and foursomes, but the combination of Dalia-Penny-Nancy is not one of them.
And if I am wrong, THANKS GOD FOR THAT.

You, good sir, are insane. I love it. And I totally agree on handing over the gems. Smells like a certain Grimoire to me.

For those who are especially thirsty for enlightenment and deep immersion in the topic, I strongly advise: Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco. The dude was pretty smart. One of the leading specialists in the Middle Ages and the science of signs and symbols. I read in Russian translation (don't speak Italian). Hope the English translation is no worse. At the same time, you will understand how dangerous it is sometimes to flirt with meanings (for example, in erotic games)

Might as well go all the way and have an orgy with all the girls, right?

Definitely the biggest thing that was missing from OiaL.

 

[Takkatakka]

Definitely the biggest thing that was missing from OiaL.

Probably because the ending overall felt very rushed. It kinda feels like Caribdis couldn't wait to put OiaLT to rest to be able to start Eternum to fully exploit all the experience he made developing OiaLT. Some of the endings really didn't made toooo much sense. I mean imagine the teacher realizing that she would only be one girl in a harem.

 

[Nameless202]

soooo in last week of june..??

maybe early july..??

well 1 month to go

 

[Solaris33]

All the girls in this game are top tier, but does anybody else feel like Annie hasn't gotten her moment to shine yet? I hope we get to see her show off her Eternum skills in the near future. Maybe she'll end up being a ruthless killer in combat, completely at odds with her personality

 

[SerHawkes]

I'm just here for more Alex love... And a side of Nancy...

(I feel like someone making an automated response whenever the question on when the release will be pops up but whatev I suppose)

Current progress bar status as of June 15...



As for news regarding release, I'll just repost what I said earlier to someone wondering when the next update will release...

A release for next month seems likely given this was what he said on Itch.io a while back...



Going by past releases he usually posts the definitive release dates (along with the Changelog) just days before the release of the beta version for the highest tier (which gets leaked here usually on the same day). Sooooo...yeah, just a few more weeks left I think.

The heart tell me YES!

Well, if leaves it to the lastest update... Or only put hidden content on subscribestar... Many devs do that way.

Personally I hate Patreon because they try to be false moralists... As long the dev doesn't condone it and the line of fiction is well mentioned I don't see the issue...

I mean, there's no chance fans of incest games around here actually want to do incest in real life... right guys?...

Considering how much of a scaredy cat she is and the current story trajectory setting up further interactions with creepy-ass shit (i.e. rest of the harem finding out about NPCs being dead people, finding out the truth behind the creepy ass voices that Orion hears, rest of the harem finding out about Orion's dreams and possibly interacting with the figures that show up there themselves, the inevitable meeting with the Syndicate)...

...yeah, much as I like Annie and all, I say good luck to her trying to deal with all of that.



No pressure. /snickers

 

[Solaris33]

...yeah, much as I like Annie and all, I say good luck to her trying to deal with all of that.

Maybe she'll surprise us all.

 

[Dorfnutter]

Maybe she'll surprise us all.

Yeah, kidding aside her character growth is the one I'm interested in seeing considering...

-Her tendency to go scaredy-cat when it comes to horror themes and spooky stuff despite being an experienced player in Eternum (which I already stated). Again, I like to see how she conquers that fear as the story dives more into the creepy shit behind the game

-Her hero-worship of the Founder, and how she could grow out of that once the truth about Eternum is revealed and what the Founder's true goals are

-Her low self-esteem which is clear to see when she compares herself to the other girls, and how she'll learn to grow out of that and become unafraid in "competing" with the rest of the harem
