kicking myself for letting this sit in my backlog. barely even started and yet i am constantly reminded why i loved once in a lifetime.
A ton of games come off as cringe when they attempt goofy humor. Eternum is one of the few that actually nails it for me every time. Once in a Lifetime was good, but Cari polished that style in a major way.

It's dumb. I know it's dumb, but Micaela of the Boreal Valley... even on replays that still fuckin' gets me! :LOL:

Why do people consider the episode ended on a cliffhanger if there's no true suspense? Does anyone actually think the MC has even a tiny chance to die? It's actually likely he'll soon end up even stronger than before after this.

I think it's a missed opportunity to have a girl injured instead. We know at least one VN that killed a LI, so in the back of our minds we would have felt there is a possibility it could happen again, however small. Now that's something that would have shaken and gripped me!
It's not suspense about whether or not MC will die. Everyone expects him to live. The the intrigue and mystery about how he will return to life.

did you all thought about how magic works in Eternum? Like anyone that can play the game can use them if learned, but aren't those REAL worlds and all?

Maybe the Founder synthetized the worlds rules (prob using Idriel for it) and controlled them or smth.

Also Orion has a chance to actually transport to Eternum without the neural implant, that's totally because of his 100% compatibility right? There's also a chance he could actually use his powers in the 'real world'

idk, my mind is messy rn

Eh, I'm not sure on the first part - that would involve either some actual magical bullshiet (besides the 'transformation' that he has) or "NANOMACHINES SON" thing that the world of Eternum didn't really set up. Always saw the setting more like Sword Art Online only not-boring and with a better female cast.

As for the usage of powers I genuinely hope that would NOT be the case. The game will then lean into some very hard Gary Stu valley that, so far, it avoided due to giving you a chance to fuckup a relationship with a girl, (ignoring the fact that the dude has a big dick, but then again - which Ero VN MC doesn't?) but giving him abilities, as in actual magical abilities outside of the Eternum world would be a bit too much.
