VN Ren'Py Eternum [v0.8.5 Public] [Caribdis]

[Ellyx]

Then Annie's reaction about not having her awaited sexy time (and punching her v-card at last) with our protagonist in v0.8 is going to be this one:

That little cutie lady will have a big nuclear meltdown if that happens.

Hey ! I recognize that pic
(and Takkatakka be careful with what you say, no Annie screen Time should be cut )

That was my argument to begin with!

First off, welcome back.

Thanks, bro.

Annie gets mentioned to be the one on the screentime chopping block.

Personally I think Nova should be the one getting the chop

No chops, only Chop chop! Or extra scenes, but no chops to my pretty girls, no one! And Annie definitely needs MORE scenes, not less, she needs to shine!

I already think 8 LI's (including Calypso) is stretching it. At the current pace, with 3.5 lewd scenes per update and 6 months between updates, we're waiting a little over a year between scenes for a given LI. Of course this will eventually speed up when we can have more than one LI in a scene *Giggity*.

I don't mind including other women we meet, and I think Caribdis has made perfect choices on this front so far. Firstly, using Eva in 0.1 as fan-service/appetizer/showing us what we have to look forward to in terms of sex scenes, while also not deploying the main girls until later. And then the scene with Maat and Nova, possibly my favorite scene in the game so far, where a side girl was used to push the naughty side of Nova and thus accelerating her progression.

Side girls can also be used for plot purposes or character development, like in 0.6 when Eva may have caused some jealousy in Dalia and Alex. And as I said, there are clever ways of using them for lewd scenes as well, when it serves a purpose. But making a lewd scene with a side girl with the main reason being "she's hot" seem a complete waste, and I have come to expect more from Caribdis than that.

Finally, as a mathematical side note: Imagine that there's a scene with a side girl like Eva, and that to make this happens Caribdis pushes a lewd scene with an LI to the next update, and a scene in the next update is then pushed to the update after that etc.. Even if it is true that in the end the total number of scenes with LI's is the same, i.e. in the end we get the scene with Eva for free, then it is still the case that in the course of the development of the game (which will presumably take many years at this pace), we are still short one scene with an LI. I would much rather have a scene with a beloved LI today, than a scene with a side girl today and the scene with the LI in five years time.

And a big nuclear orgasm when it does finally happen! XD

No chops, only Chop chop!

Why is the ghost lady in black dress so freaking hot?! If scary WHY HOT?!

PP be like shaking in fear while having a diamond boner.

It's just too creepy... but damn, I hope she also gets lots of really sweet/romantic H-scenes (alongside the ones where she's not-undead or something).

MC gonna fuck her until she ascends to heaven, by the blessed power of PP and cum, her soul is saved. He'll do what is called "Sexorcism" or "SEEGGSSorcism", and after lots of sexorcism sessions she finally has to cross over, just in time where both she and MC have started to develop romantic feelings or some bittersweet settings like that, I don't know.

First she scares you, then makes you cum, then makes you cry.

Since I'm a no sexy times until emotional attachment person irl, in avn's once there is sexy times it tends to short circuit my brain a bit and kinda just trick it into being like emotionally attached. So if MC dicks a girl down I want her in the harem.

I'm not a big fan of one and done side girls for this reason, I'm fine with the harem having primary women, but I'd rather all the girls be in the harem cause of my own personal weirdness, so I'm pro Eva being a LI, but I realize I'm an outlier.

Sorry for leaving without warning, but some times the life is a little bitch. Never again, I hope, but I'm back and that's the important part.
And... well, a little summary of what I've missed? I'm going to read all the posts little by little but... help me Dorfnutter, you are my last hope.
AND I REALLY HOPE NO ONE OF YOU, BUNCH OF BLASFEMOUS HAVE SAID ANYTHING BAD ABOUT ANY OF THE GIRLS IN MY ABSENCE! Takkatakka???
Just kidding, I really miss you all this time, and I hope all of you are well, happy and of course praying for another wonderful Nova-filled update.

Personally I think Nova should be the one getting the chop for more Eva screentime, given that she has been getting too much as of late. But we all know that if Cari is going to make the call, the one he's gonna cut is obviously Luna.

Okay......

Exactly!

That was all I was saying. I didn't wanted to miss a scene with Annie (or any other LI) just to get one with Eva. I mean, in the end we will see what Cari will do. For now he was pretty much spot on with every story decision.

There is no need to cut Nova or any other LIs to give more screentime to Eva. I mean I love her, too. But there is still time for Eva's lewd scenes in the next 4 episodes. Besides [1.0] may not be the last episode of Eternum. Who knows?

 

[quorkboy]

When suggesting other characters to cut for more Eva (jokingly or otherwise), no one is putting forward the obvious: Gertrude.
She does nothing but take up space and be annoying. What has she contributed so far?

• A means for Nancy to get a cheap implant. Substitute a short paragraph in another scene where Nancy says Ulysses gave all higher level employees at her company a free implant as part of the agreement for using her company's resources. Doesn't even need an additional render.
• She played a minor part in the scheme to access to the laptop. Since she was never supposed to be there, her presence was not necessary.

Is there anyone here who would pick Gertrude over Eva if given the choice?

Ultimately, I trust that Caribdis will do what he thinks is right for the story. Some of that will please me (most of it, based on events up to now) and some won't.

Eva will most likely be part of a threesome with one of the main girl anyway . Just like the Clone device will be used for a Lewd scene, and not for the plot.

 

[quorkboy]

Nedvaug Eternum has many more episodes to come (I think I recall Caribdis said it will be between 15 and 20?). 1.0 will be the end, but there can be an any number of episodes between 0.6 and 1.0 because that's how versioning works (0.9, 0.10, 0.11, ... 1.0).

I'd like to also nominate Chop-Chop.

It is [0.9] not [0.09].

Uhm...we already know there there will be more than 10 episodes and that we likely see something like 0.15 before we will see a 1.0 version.

We'll see what Cari does, but fucking Eva outside of the harem girls really feels kinda like cheating at this point, I don't think I would be okay with that.

It is [0.9] not [0.09].

It is a software version number not a decimal number, 0.10 > 0.9 > 0.1
