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

[Dorfnutter]

Also why is Caribdis posting here. Aren't we sort of pirating his game. Don't we get updated when he launches supporter tier?

i was wondering that as well....

why do alot of devs post here despite the fact that these forums are made to pirate the games? curious

Some of the people who post or lurk in this site also happen to be supporters or potential ones. Also helps that if you build a good enough rapport with the people here, even the ones who don't have disposable income end up supporting you by telling other people about the game, who in turn could potentially become a supporter.

There are also devs here who got their start in this site, posting their own games for free and getting feedback. Then when they become more experienced they could venture out, maybe start making a Patreon or Subscribestar page or selling their game through Steam and Itch.io, that kind of thing.

So really, this place isn't just a pirate site. More like a porn game enthusiast and discussion forum where pirates and supporters rub elbows with budding and seasoned developers as they talk about game progress and bug reports, how much they like or dislike the game (or compare it to other games and end up starting arguments), and participating in the occasional shitshow when discussion turns to "this dev is a lazy patreon milker and those who support him/her/them are simps" or the dreaded "iS nTR AvOidaBle iN THis gAMe?" that gets bought up every single time an NTR game is posted.

Free Marketing. Tell me, would you have known about this game if it wasn't available here?

Dev knows that he can't stop piracy. No dev wants their games to be available for free but it is what it is.

This can probably be extended to any Japanese developer and publisher. It's no coincidence that JRPGs have declined tremendously over the past two decades or so. Some do better, despite all the controversy (*cough cough* Nintendo) because the fanbase is absolutely uncritical, and others do less well (*cough cough* Square). The only explanation I have for this is that the suits in charge want the product to be praised to the skies, even if in reality it's a smoking pile of crap that doesn't work one bit.

Devs here are usually normal people who haven't lost touch with reality. At the same time, I can understand devs withdrawing more and more from here, because the comment culture is very toxic sometimes.

Personally, I couldn't rank the ladies in Eternum, as each of them has their own personal charm without being absolutely dependent on the protagonist (the damsel in distress syndrome).

If I'm asked I couldn't ranked them but if I had to choose 1 I'm going to pick Penelope (which is obvious base on my profile).
Just imagine if all the girls gets mad at you knowing you're fucking all of them and have to face one of them...
Dalia could throw you a kick. (like she did in the bathroom)
Alex could kick you in the balls. (like she did in Axel)
Nancy could land a one punch of death to you. (like she did to the emperor)
Luna... don't ask me cause she will say every detail of how she'll to kill you.
Calypso (if she's will be part of the harem) maybe throw you to a dimension where you're Jerry...
Annie and Penelope... they seem to be harmless so...
And oh Nova... Uhmmmm...

Spoiler: What could Nova do?

i personly find dalia to be a bit bitchy and a mean person. she might fool the player into thinking she's a lovable partner, but in reality she's a mean idividual who takes the opportunity to shame people. i remember a scene where she was body shaming a random girl and being sassy for nothing, even if that girl was a bit bitchy herself or whatever.

TLDR.. Nova best girl

As a creator, what you really want is feedback on what you create.

Patreon and Discord are terrible for feedback because people there already like your creation enough to support you. If you want to expand you have to look out for the general population that is playing your game but isn't currently supporting you, to understand what's working and what's not. Obviously you can't please everyone but feedback is what you're after.

This thread is filled with people that like the game enough to follow its development and engage in discussion about it in their free time. Where else are you gonna find a better place filled with potential customers?

Practically speaking this site (at least for me) is better built for finding CULTURED content since it specializes on it.

For example: I used to browse itchio but then one of the devs there had a link to this site and since then I found plenty of banggers thus I stayed here.
So I believe, besides the points the others made above me, ease of access to this sort of content may be one of the big factors as well.

Yeah good luck with that. It's like telling Nintendo not to sue their fans when..... hold on, seems I got a package...

...Is there a particular reason why you're only singling out Dalia for body shaming when Alex herself is also in on it?

That never happened..... but she deserved it

As for Charlotte, I can only extrapolate from Axel's other known "friend." He might only have been involved with Axel because he (Axel) is a Bardot and has money and influence accordingly. So it can't be excluded that Charlotte is similarly (though showing less unpleasant character traits like Benjamin) minded. Alex's body shaming of Charlotte is accordingly less active body contempt but more a sign of Alex's dislike for her. Doesn't make it better, though we know little about past interactions between the two. It could well be that Charlotte tried to endear herself to Alex at some point, but unlike Axel, she had a better sense of character traits and quickly saw through her.

Apart from that, we have to give Alex credit for playing Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite for her brother. So she is definitely a woman of culture.

Come to think of it, the scene also mirrors somewhere the encounter between Orion and Axel at the beginning of Update 2. Less physical, but no less of a hit.
