Tbh I just want a reason an excuse to replay a third time
Played first time only 2 weeks ago lmao

Play it again.....hmmmm....that might be a idea worth pursuing.

Mortal: Will die.
Immortal: Will not die.

If he will not die, then there is nothing wrong with transposing his unknown age with "Immortal".
It effectively shows that his age is irrelevant, as he cannot die.
It's more informative than "??".

At some point in my everyone's life I they start to say "age is irrelevant" in a vain hope that if I they say it enough it will come true and the Grim Reaper will pass you by

It's funny, isn't it? How for the first part of most people's lives we want to be older, until we reach a certain age and then it's permanently wishing we were younger!

My point with the "Immortal" piece, is that age is only a marker of which stage of life you are in, from beginning to end.
If there is no "end", then age (past a certain point) doesn't really denote anything.
Is someone who's 70 old, if they will live forever? Proportionally, they're not.

Current progress bar status as of June 15...



As for news regarding release, I'll just repost what I said earlier to someone wondering when the next update will release...

A release for next month seems likely given this was what he said on Itch.io a while back...



Going by past releases he usually posts the definitive release dates (along with the Changelog) just days before the release of the beta version for the highest tier (which gets leaked here usually on the same day). Sooooo...yeah, just a few more weeks left I think.

Hey Caribdis the Luna theme song is a breakup song right? Is it foreshadowing something?

/reads lyrics

...Methinks less breakup and possibly that thing about Luna not seeing Orion's future finally kicking in and setting him in a path that she and the girls won't be able to follow...

...unless you follow the walkthrough to a T, in which case that path gets completely thrown in the bin because the girls could pull him out of that and into the path of the happy harem end (which probably has its own theme song and such).

OR Cari just likes the song and thought the mood kinda fits Loonie and the lyrics have absolutely no connection to the story or anything that could happen in the future. /shrugs

My money's on the third assumption.

I mean...it is supposed to be a harem game where can end up with all or with none of the LIs, depending on your choices. So the lyrics can fit or not at all both at the same time.

thanks for the effort but I've gotten adept at lurking so it wasn't really needed, sorry for not appropriately labeling my meme post

...It...it was a pure meme post?



(J/K btw it's fine, I'm used to reposting shit since people keep asking)

In that case, I'll make sure to request your services at least twice a week from now on until 0.6 is released

Same and this is also why I dont like songs with lyrics in a lot of adult games. The music may be nice but if you are one of the people that pay attention to the lyrics it can easily ruin a scene because the lyrics clash with the intent of the scene.

Agree, but on the other hand, music with lyrics should be "compatible" with a scene and there is the point for me to say that music only is better. It's hard enough to find somehow good music for a scene, there are developers who buy custom music, but that is expensive. And there aren't many musicians who are willing to make music for AVN. It's probably a taboo theme for them.

/Me seeing that the week's about to be over but the progress bar still hasn't updated yet

I believe some save files can be found in the Eternum RenPY folder in AppData under Roaming. You'll have to delete them from there as well.
C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Roaming\RenPy\Eternum

Did you delete the saves from your Appdata? The one located in

C:\Users\(insertyourusernamehere)\AppData\Roaming\RenPy\Eternum

(You can access AppData folder if you have "Hidden Items" checked on the File Explorer "View" tab)

 

[JosephH151]

After so many RenPY games played, I still can't quite understand why there are two locations for save files and persistent files. Makes deleting files slightly more difficult

XYZ:/Users/USERNAME/AppData/Roaming/RenPy/Eternum

I think you can also access it, without the box being checked.
Just type %AppData%\RenPy into "Run".

When you see what an novice user can do if he doesn't know what he's doing, doesn't know anything about computers and you have to install his system few times, you would be happy that copies of everything are on three or more different places.
