The only thing I don't like about this game is that
There are only two ways: Harem root or simply cutting yourself off from a piece of content

Well, in general my thought was this
That pregnancy or anal sex will not make the game much better or fresher than it is now

At least if you don’t consider something outlandish or extreme in the literal sense And what you showed in the screenshots is quite routine and has already been used in many places I’m talking about screenshots from this page Well it seems so to me

Question is: does it need to?

Because a lot of people still praise it and enjoy it despite not having any fresh kinks as you say.

If you want better kinks then there are other games. But Cari has always stuck with his guns and knows what his audience likes (i.e. vanilla harem romance that warms the cockles of reader's hearts, LIs that have god-tier asses, a story that's entertaining enough to stand on its own even without the porn).

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it," or so the saying goes.

I'm happy with everything as it is now

Besides the fact that there are no alternative single routes
Not a piece of harem root
Which seems to be what happens when you make the wrong choice and cross out the heroine

Well, maybe I’m missing some features from Japanese vanilla games
Let's say voice over in Japanese
Or maybe the duration of the sex scenes?
Now I just skip them to be honest

I just don't really understand what people expect from the addition of anal sex scenes?
Or pregnancy if it is in the same form in which it was presented in the author’s previous game

Dev has a massive butt fetish. So anal is pretty much expected.

Same with pregnancy, which is a byproduct of his creampie fetish (and why it's optional instead of mandatory).

Like I said, dev knows what he likes so he sticks to his guns instead of reinventing the wheel. And people like it for what it is.

Nah it doesn't. Too many games are needlessly depraved. There's nothing wrong with a good old relatively vanilla romp.

Amen.

Come on, just the fact of pregnancy or anal sex is boring
And more were many places
On the other hand, everything else is probably not for everyone
Or is it condemned by many
Maybe I'm missing something
But I would like something that is rarely used
So far everything is on rails and too boring in terms of sex or fetishes in this game, it seems to me

It feels silly to state the obvious, but here we go: this game is what it is, and it isn't what it isn't. We're here for what it is, and it makes sense to wish or argue for things consentaneous with what the game is, but not for things entirely divorced from it. I don't see why you'd spend time arguing for changing the nature of the game into something else entirely.

Well, I would be somewhat of a hypocrite if I would claim that certain...kinks...shouldn't ever appear in a VN. :HideThePain:

I would agree though, that they don't need to appear in every VN. Cari should make the story he wants to make and if that story isn't for you, just move on.

I totally agree with you on that, If Cari doesn't want it then NOBODY should pressure him or try to force him into putting that kind of content into HIS game. Remember that Cari is doing his way and not ours. If you don't like it then use the search function on the downloads page to find what YOU want.;)

Seeing butts doesn't necessarily means anal, Oailt didn't have an huge amount of it. You can be a bit more spanking or cowgirl for example, it enhances their attributes :whistle:

OIAL didn't have a huge amount of anything because Cari rushed it to completion to start working on Eternum. With the higher update count he'll likely be able to do a lot more in this game compared to the other, anal scenes included. :whistle:

What if Caribdis at the end rushes Eternum to start working on another game?

Doubtful since he has all major plot points jotted down this time around, meaning the ending isn't going to be some spur-of-the-moment thing (which OIAL's ending felt like IMO).

That said, he's not going to overextend the story unless necessary. Originally his guesstimate was that the plot would span between 12 to 20 updates. His latest guesstimate however puts it around 12 to 14. Personally I find the latter to be a healthier estimate of length as the game doesn't have that much subplots/dangling story threads to justify a length greater than 15.
