Them being hostile means it'll just add to their thrill. Pretty sure there was a line before where Calypso was interested in the human-elf forbidden romance like her ancestor

so much elf thirst happening right now XD
let me try and give elf gooners something to theorize about
do you guys think first time with calypso gonna be in real world? like orion use his powers to take calypso in his world where there is no elves and no rules and nothing (potentially she does not even have her powers as elven magic wouldnt work in human world) and that is where they do it for the first time safe from forbidden bs

Two actually, the first one in the Ogygya server where Orion, Alex and Nova rescue Cali, she talk about it with Alex because looking at Alex hairs, she thought she was the daughter of an elf and human.Them being hostile means it'll just add to their thrill.

The second one when Orion, Alex and the princess go the Boyle mansion searching for infos, her and Orion have a second talk about it.
One that I noticed was the Maat encounter. When accused of stealing 250 eternals the MC would claim innocence before the patch, now it gives the correct dialog depending on whether you took the money or not.

I think it'll be in her world. Maybe there is one of those secret places she goes for meditations or somethingso much elf thirst happening right now XD

do you think it will happen in next patch or how/why do you think they will get back to her world again? also do you think calypso will stay in her world starting next update as she has no interest in eternum and this whole time all she wanted was to get back which now allegedly they did in the cliffhanger?
0.8.4? What's with the .4 at the end? That wasn't there the last time I looked. Someone please tell me they deleted the office scene? That's such a major black eye on an otherwise amazing game.

It's just a later release version with a few fixes and no, that scene obviously wasn't removed and it is actually pretty good. If you find it annoying, just skip through it.
Pretty what? I couldn't disagree more. While Eternum overall is one of the best VNs out there, the office scene is one of the worst parts I've seen across all VNs. And I am a Stanley Parable fan...but that scene is the total opposite of Stanley Parable that looks like it was made by someone who didn't understand what made the Stanley Parable good. Horrid narrator, bad story for the part, etc. The sad part is that is was probably the most expensive part of the game too since they probably paid for the voice acting, even though is was bad, so at this point it's probably sunk cost fallacy where it was too expensive to throw away even though it makes the game worse.
We already have high level answers to all of those except Orion's nature though, and the details don't feel all that impactful. It's like the difference between knowing about Zion in The Matrix, and seeing Zion. Did seeing Zion really feel expansive?
Eternum is just there, the way our universe is. What is the purpose of our universe? What is the purpose of our solar systems? The Founder is just some dude with really high compatibility who saw a way to profit. We already know Thanatos is one of many who have been transplanted permanently into Eternum, and he has Hyas. Idriel is a slave of the Founder, and the Immortals are oppressors.
This is one little unfortunate thing about all of Caribdis' works in principle. It's ALWAYS been there. I love his central messages of "Don't be a scumbag" and "Don't be a pussy".
However...
There's just a wee bit too much epmhasis in his games of "or else other men are gonna fuck your girl" that none of the other top visual novels have (BAD, Ripples). He's definitely more focused on the competition between men for women
Gotta say, writing in this game is top notch, especially the main plot, putting many newer AAA games to shame.
I know most of the content is reference's to hollywood movies and games but still. Can't believe i missed this game for so long.
Rarely you see side/insignificant characters in games that can make you lol like Jerry.

Nothing you've said is close to an answer to anything. Those aren't even high level answers. It would be difficult to be more vague.
Why not give the same type of answer for Orion's nature? He's that way because he is.
It's good that scientists didn't take the same approach to our universe and solar system as you do to Eternum. We'd still be living in a world where everyone believes gods make thunder. "Purpose" is a loaded word. Can be used to ask "why does the universe exist?" (probably unanswerable) or "why does the universe behave in a particular way?" (sometimes answerable).
We don't know the details of the answers, so you can't argue whether they will be impactful.
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content.

I don't see you how you can say there is an emphasis on "or else other men are gonna fuck your girl" because that doesn't happen and isn't implied. You can reject or fuck up with every one of them and it does not happen. You have zero competition. Who do you think is competition? Chang? He would never (and he has Micaela). Jerry? Not a chance. Axel? ha!. The other male side characters are either uninterested, inconsequential, or scumbags whom the girls would not consider in a million years.
There was one scene in OIAL where it could happen to a single character and you had to actively decide to do it (and I think it led to a bad ending).
I don't even think the suggested vibes in the office sequence are much of anything. I know they're talking about the TV section, but this is a dream sequence designed to mess with Orion's head, and nothing happens.

wait, by BAD you cant possibly mean "being a DIK"? but i cant think of anything else that could be "BAD" given the context.

to play devils advocate it is kind of heavily implied during the stanley parabole dream sequence. Alex is married, penny is dating celebrity, Dalia is married to Jerry... its hard to argue that this scene does not at least imply it. (though i could see how someone could play devil advocate and argue that it doesnt happen as i would be all over that if its needed
its just the "implied" part that i disagree with)
