What I managed to find now is some complex theories (hello Dalli_x
). The F95's search function is terribly inconvenient. Still, I'll try to make such a post myself, especially since there are always new people in the thread who will not read all past 900 pages.

Actually this is Honey Select 2, big improvement over the original,if i'm not mistaken, Caribdis's first game Once In A Lifetime used HS1.
The difference between it and Eternum is night and day.

Thanks for your reply. Honestly, i have no negative review about animations (sex or non sex), it even get better than before (especially the 'the main dish'). And i must admit, story telling about Calypso's origin at Blackridge (wild west server) is actually a brand new, yet very good approach that Cari gave to us. i appreciated that. And the rest, well, i stay on my opinion. But hey, thanks againThe update didn't seem shorter to me (the detective part and the wild west server were pretty long) probably it's because I'm French so I take more time to read than an native speaker
.Ahh, i'm glad to hear that

I see. It seems that this version release, Cari focused on animations, experiment on new approach of story-telling (by brought us classic story-telling style about Calypso's origin, with their classic theatrical-like animations too) and also mini game at Collector's whodunit lol. At programming side, this kind of mini games sure spent a lot of development time on it. I understand that if Cari wants to bring the narrative content like previous version releases, it would take a year for him to develop. Solid argument sir. Thank you.
Thanks for the info!. It might be the best approach for him to prepare more balance content on next version releases. Besides, from other reply, he will give use not just 4 remaining updates, but around 15-20 in total (about 11-14 updates remaining cmiiw). And yes. i absolutely agree that Andromeda mini game has more success to bring such survival-horror theme and vibes, at least for me.
You caught me, lol. English is not my native nor secondary language for my country. So, yeah
Still better than what I would ever be able to do with the same tools.One month I'm not so sure about that because this is what Alex looked like after I tried to animate her yesterday

From what I can recall...
Add Clonk is actually Pascal from Nier: Automata and one of the items displayed at the Collector's house was the Portal 2 gun I suppose.
Logical explanation is that since these are modded assets that already exist in HS2, Cari just did the economical thing and repurposed said assets in his story to save time and patreon funds that he could use elsewhere (i.e. commissioning modders to make custom maps, port stuff from Daz3D to HS2, or create non-HS2 mod assets that would still be useful to the story (i.e. Nova's manga, Slide art for Caly's backstory)).
From a story/lore perspective...well, the Andromeda tapes in 0.4 mentioned that the creator/s of Alien got their idea from a dream, yes? And that one of the running theories is that Eternum is akin to or IS the Astral Plane (hence the fact why otherworldly beings and spirits and dreamers are found there), yes? Well if the latter is true, then a plausible explanation is that the assets that we see in Eternum are likely the original concepts or ideas of the stuff that we see in the real world, and that they were brought into the real world by their respective creators who dreamnt of them in a dream. So it's basically a subversion of "Ready Player One" (or, god forbid, "Fortnite") where instead of all these IP from various sources being plonked into this vast VRMMO, it's the other way around.

Yesyes and hopefully they ascend to the heavens after seeing such a "glorious vision" and never come back down in this thread.

Even with HS1 you can achieve very good animations, just like Jestur does with his game (Ripples) but overall HS2 is still an improvement
.To each their own I guessThanks for your reply. Honestly, i have no negative review about animations (sex or non sex), it even get better than before (especially the 'the main dish').

,I will never force anyone to think like me.Still made me laugh to see how it is easy to transform Alex into someone uglier than Ruth

When I saw OIAL, i though HOTTEST GIRLS EVER (MC was meh, but whatever).
Then Eternum came...
Honestly, I don't know how Caribdis keeps outdoing him/her self every time

While you're waiting, you might want to check out Carbdis's older, completed get Once In a Lifetime
The storytelling is stellar, (shorter than Eternum though), and in my own opinion, the visuals are the hottest ever for the honeyselect-type games (sans eternum, of course)

I know Alex was the sick one but when Eva had realized she'd met MC and he had to talk about how they met, this man was sweating bullets more than the butter it takes for a flapjack...

Dorfnutter I got a concept for you that you might just percolate on...
What if Eva has some ties to the Syndicate?

This game is probably in my Top 2 being on par with superhuman, the Fantasy aspect is definitely peak, the way he writes the story is honestly so satisfying and the mini games like the horror map (burned factory) or the "murdered" collector murder mystery. I don't know how he does it but honestly this gotta be one of the best VN on this si- no just out there in general tbh. {This scene was funny too

Did you get that one from Discord? I seem to recall seeing that theory there the other day...XD
Anyway, could work. But personally I'm trying to grasp how a seemingly fuck-it-I'll-do-what-I-want-let's-see-what-happens kind of girl would mesh with a bunch of ghost-like entities who're creepy and cryptic as fuck. But hey, if an ex-convict with a heart of gold can somehow become President of the US of A in this universe, I suppose anything can happen. /shrugs
