Amen brother! You really are part of the Church of Nova. You had my respect, but now you have my admiration too.

So which rank does that follower of Nova's faith holds in that church? I take it must be among the top of the organization. The passion displayed is also quite commendable. Just curiosity.

Archbishop, of course, but the rank is irrelevant in the Church of Nova, only the love towards the girls and towards Nova is important. Ranks are ephemeral, love is eternum.

My brother in faith Yvier the Duck is very kind and explained how things work in Nova's church, but I'm nothing if not a humble worshipper of our Goddess, I don't hold any ranks, I'm only here to carry her words of love to the world nothing more.
As stated perfectly by him ranks are ephemeral, love is eternum.
so.... is this game harem or you eventually have to choose?
I'm currently playing 0.5 update, just finished 0.4 and i really think eternum would be better if it's not a harem

Harem tag is in the OP, and Dev has control of the OP, and his previous game is full harem, so ...
But you seem to have the choices to not catch 'em all if you want ...

-Story has been emphasizing relationship development and establishment of camaraderie/friendship amongst love interests since 0.2 onwards (see: Annie and Luna, Penny and Nova, Nova and Alex)
-Says story would be better if it wasn't harem
(Also, given that dev's last game had the harem ending as the canon ending, I'm pretty sure this will end on the same note even if there will likely be multiple endings like the last one)

I'm glad we could discuss this. No, that's not "opsessed" means. That's when you see in your side mirror and see something 2 km away. That "something" is the name of this state of mind.

Well, you didn't pay attention. See closer to your side mirror. When you see a tiny, tiny dot, cca. 2 km behind your "something", that's mine state of the mind.W-wait how did you know that?!?! I never said anything about it!!!

Weeeell... I can't do much more considering that I see her in the reflection of my glasses, so it may be too late for the rest but it's ok... it's my Goddess we are talking about... so everything is gonna be ok...Well, you didn't pay attention.

well i haven't played once in a lifetime.
The girls having camaraderie with each other is not exclusive to them accepting harem relationship with MC.
Idk, it's just preference. I'd rather this not be a harem tbh. It actually breaks immersion for me, lol

At least I can confirm that's not your eyesight's fault. She's a beauty. But I'm concerned about you state of the mind. My psychiatrist said my state isn't reversable any more. And then he jumped thru double glassed window and tried double high-five with the street... But anyway...Weeeell... I can't do much more considering that I see her in the reflection of my glasses, so it may be too late for the rest but it's ok... it's my Goddess we are talking about... so everything is gonna be ok...
I mean, I dont know how it actually is, but I am very sure that the girls you dont want to have will still pop up in the story.
So if you dont want certain girls, you can lose their path intentionally and go for the one you want to have.

Yours too?!?! Dang I just would pay for knowing what the heck happen to them... Must be a psychological fragility I can't really think of anything else that can push them doing such terrible and sad acts...
And yes Nova is a Stunning Beauty I wholeheartedly agree with you!

Anyway, the reason why I mentioned the camaraderie thing is that one of the issues with OIAL's story was that the establishment of the harem didn't had too much time to cook. The girls appear to have readily accepted the fact that they're in a harem relationship in the ending, even though some of the girls didn't have much interaction/never interacted with one another for them to even be aware that they were in a harem (save for a few of the girls who caught on the idea).
Compare that to Eternum where the story is doing its best in establishing friendships amongst all of the girls and having them work together (i.e. The Heist). It's as if Caribdis is making sure that some form of trust or sisterhood is established on all of them so that when it's later revealed down the line that they are in a harem relationship with Orion (MC), the acceptance isn't just going to come out of nowhere given that at that point they'll have a more established bond amongst one another.
Again, you can choose to ignore the path of the other girls. But given that the plot progression is deliberately intertwined/runs parallel to a LI's romance progression, it wouldn't surprise me if the dev pulls another OIAL and makes the harem end canon for the next game (assuming that the game takes place in the same universe the way Eternum takes place in the same universe as OIAL).

Yeah, about "pushing"... My record is three psychiatrist... And, yeah, they are really fragile. They don't survive a simpleYours too?!?! Dang I just would pay for knowing what the heck happen to them... Must be a psychological fragility I can't really think of anything else that can push them doing such terrible and sad acts...
And yes Nova is a Stunning Beauty I wholeheartedly agree with you!

Agh! I'm at two for now, gotta step up my game then...
And yeah, it's a plot man i'm sure about that, they get high on being on the higher floor I swear and then they fall down because they can't resist a little bit of press on their fragile backs!!!

Oh, not three as total, I meant three in a row... The rest had no help from me... OK, not physical help... I just messed a little their heads...Agh! I'm at two for now, gotta step up my game then...

Did you see in their eyes, they have very resolute view from their eyes, empty eyes... As they could defy gravity... hint; they were wrong...

I think it's Nancy's personality, for sure. She seems more fleshed out, and as you say: not just there to be a MILF.I think you'll really dig Alex once you know more about her. Not gonna lie, her backstory almost had me crying. Good shit
Luna is still probably my favorite so far, but I like all of the characters. And I think it does speak to the character's writing in this that it's one of the very few games I've played where I like the MILF just as much as the other girls. Every other one just has them come off as downright creepy... For some reason, Nancy isn't the same way. Maybe that's because it feels like she's around for more than just the mommy fetish.
Despite the initial setup being so much like the usual incest story (mother figure, older sister type, younger sister type, living in a house with an MC who has only just come back from somewhere) the characters are different. Penny isn't the bitchy older sister who will start to lust after the MC, Dalia isn't the naive younger sister, and Nancy has a personality separate from her MILF status. Those relationships generally happen through manipulation, with varying levels of creepiness.
Don't get me wrong. I can be in the mood for those manipulation style stories. I enjoy them as a fantasy. But they don't fit the vibe I'm getting from Eternum. This is why I was a little disappointed at the inclusion of the bathroom option with Dalia, and Nancy's walking in on the MC. But to be fair to Eternum, even those have a slightly different feel to the usual. Similar to the scene in Ripples where Jessica sees the MC's cock (which was one of the most adorable things I've seen; but also by the time that happens we already know that Jessica has more than sisterly feelings for the MC). So I may have been a little premature in judging them. And I opted for the good guy approach to the bathroom scene, so in my reality, that other scene never happened
.It's also in Eternum's favour that we are quickly introduced to other female characters (Luna, Alex) who have their own personalities and seem obviously destined to be more than side girls there to create lewd content while the main family (or family adjacent) characters take their time getting to the sex.
