hmm, on one hand you prove my point that she is half the character othe girls are but on the other hand you disprove my direct quote that she is not main girl. I still feel like i was proven wrong somehow

I feel like calypso is only not a part of it to "hide" her importance.hmm, on one hand you prove my point that she is half the character othe girls are but on the other hand you disprove my direct quote that she is not main girl. I still feel like i was proven wrong somehow
Until this update we simply werent sure if she is a real or a digital being. Only the cliffhanger proved that she is very likely a real existing being. Otherwise it would have been like calling a bot your girlfriend
She and her people could even be the origin of life on earth but at least seem to be the origin of the immortals, we dont know a lot so far.

Likely because unlike the other girls she has little to no dedicated side events and all of her events are basically in service to the main plot (whether it be infodumping the backstory of her lineage to being a main component in Orion's quest for the gems). Even our time in Hyril'ar in 0.9 will no doubt be main plot focused that'll be rife with infodumps and not a sidetrip like, say, Dalia's competition or Penny's photoshoot.hmm, on one hand you prove my point that she is half the character othe girls are but on the other hand you disprove my direct quote that she is not main girl.

exactly. thats why she is just a side girl not a main one. she is a plot device, a tool, a "weapon of atlas"

Sadly not, but next one for sure. You'll see.
Honestly, I barely care if one of my favorites are getting a scene or not at this point.
They're all so good.

To you, maybe. Cari seems to have a differing idea as to what a "side girl" is based on the quote I screenie'd.exactly. thats why she is just a side girl not a main one. she is a plot device, a tool, a "weapon of atlas"
Calypso is an event herself and don’t need side plot devices to move to development along. As you said your self she is tied to the main plot and it don’t get more main girl energy than that.
Check and mate

On the contrary, I have an exact opposite idea that she's the default girl Orion can always have an ending with, even if he fails every girl's path, the fail-safe LI. Plus, with the amount of scenes she's in (and that 0.8 ending), it's hard not to consider her as a main girl.

screenshot proves that my definition of side girl is different from cari's definition. But nowhere in that screenshot do you have a confirmation that calypso is main girl. If anything, i can use that screenshot to prove that calypso is not even side girl but just a plot device thus further downgrade her posibilities of being main girlTo you, maybe. Cari seems to have a differing idea as to what a "side girl" is based on the quote I screenie'd.
This train of thought i like. Calypso being tied to main plot giving off main girl energy is the strongest angle i've read so far and i like it
i dont have a good retort to this at the moment but ill remember it and fight back if possible after 0.9

by that logic, if someone is scripted to be on orion path no matter what doesnt that make her consolation prize? "even if you fuck up your chances with every other girl calypso is still there to pick their sloppy seconds aka orion". it does not give main girl energy, its gives participation trophy vibe
P.S. btw guys, i love calypso i dunno how i got into this position but i never back down from being devils advocate lmao

It doesn't have to be a sloppy second though. Like, in OIAT, there is Etereum ending if you fail every LI on purpose. Perhaps, there will be a unique ending with Calypso by failing every LI, as well.by that logic, if someone is scripted to be on orion path no matter what doesnt that make her consolation prize?

apples and oranges. we were not comparing oiat and eternum, we were discussing if scripting someone to end up with orion no matter what (cant lose her path) makes her most important or least important girl

If she doesn't get her own relationship tab by next update I have a hunch she will die close to the end of the story.
And whatever happens I doubt she would be part of the happily after harem like the other seven girls.

thats what i've been saying. she is not going to be part of the happy harem ending, she is the weapon orion needs to use in order to get that happy ending. In fact all 3 weapons of atlas will be used in aid of orions pursuit of his canon happy harem ending. He will sooner or later need to defeat thanatos one way or another to get gems of doom and in the same time gain the sword that can cut through everything, by being on nova's path he has power of dione by his side and calypso is third weapon. These "weapons of atlas" will all be used and potentially destroyed by the end of the game, meaning calypso sacrifice herself to save all the npcs, save idriel, break the chains etc. etc. etc.

Or she replaces Idriel as the Lady of Eternum once the latter passes into the great beyond like the other trapped NPCs once Acheron is opened. That also works.

If the writer is DrPinkCake, yeah it's possible, but I doubt Cari would write Calypso off, judging from her popularity. But hey, I don't mind being shocked if the twist is pulled well.

Nah, if Cari is DPC then harem would not exist and Orion will be forced to save only one girl from being excommunicated/getting shanked by Wyatt near the end of the game.

I dunno what exactly we are discussing here but I think everything is crystal clear. Caribdis has stated that many times before, and we shared the proofs already. There are 8 girls in harem and Caly is one of them. I mean, yeah she may not be in your own lore but that's not our business. I never understand Caly haters.
For the cultured Caly fans, I'd like to share all three 4K official wallpapers of her. You may miss them.
Long live The Princess!
