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

[Jaga Telesin]

I mean, people like this exist, so...

It's true, they exist. I think it's probably a fraction of a fraction of all guys out there, but that's a guess. All I know is she's not appealing at all to me, and given the chance I'd turn her down if the attitude keeps going. Emasculation isn't a big thing for me.

Hell, I'm even old enough that 'chasing' a girl is a bit boring anymore - I appreciate women that actually say what they mean, more than ever now. But then I'd say I'm not the norm, as I don't believe in the whole 'women giving themselves to men', but rather it's a two-way street. So yeah, not even interested in any perceived challenge that winning her affection would imply.

Physically, Calypso is stunning. As for her personality: repugnant.

Point being was that she may not be best girl to you, but she is best girl to those who have certain kinks that you are obviously not into.

One very specific kink - that I will concede, yep.

There are plenty of kinks that don’t involve being a sub that she fills. You seem to have a specific kink that is being a bore on forums and thinking anyone gives two shits what kinks you do and don’t approve of.

It is quite possible that she will be in a harem, judging by her story, I would say that she has some kind of special connection with Orion or either she at some point feels something for Orion and she will want to repeat something similar to what she told with Mc .

For some reason, I wouldn’t be surprised if Caribdis decides to create, in addition to the harem ending, also a solo ending, a particularly important solo ending could be with Calypso! Based on her typical character, I would say a harem is not her style (although it’s too early to draw conclusions)...

She just has a different aura, as if she will take Orion somewhere far away from everyone where they will live in their own way, like in a fairy tale, because she is a different person

I mean...that is pretty much one of my theories: There will be two good endings, one will be the harem ending and the other one will be an ending in which Orion becomes king with Calypso over "Eternum".

This!

This is what I meant.
I thought that Orion would have a choice in the end to stay with his family or accept an alliance with Calypso, that in the end he would become the king of either Eternum or the king/prince of her elves that she is looking for...

Huh, the theory I've seen around is that the 'bad ending' would be Orion ending with Idriel, not Calypso... since Caly was created by Idriel, so she's basically a tool.

Also, there will be solo endings for each LI. They just won't be canon ones.

I´m from 2028, actually.

Who had won muricans elections?
Are Js finally jeeted into oblivion?
Did Cardano crossed 1$ mark?
I have so many questions

Umm, it's not just one.

Some people like to be dominated, but dominating a dominating woman is also a massive fucking kink, and given Caribdis's history, the latter is likely, and I'm all about it.

 

[quorkboy]

Calypso is not a dominating woman. She's a tsundere. I understand her appeal for others, even if it doesn't work on me.

 

[VaderExMachina]

Another possibilities could be:

1- Orion may decide to stay in the real world and leave Calypso as queen in Eternum, but gives her an heir to secure the future. (only would work with pregnancy content enabled)

2-Orion and the gang might decide to somehow live permanently in Eternum, thus allowing Calypso to join the harem fully.

3- Orion and the gang decide to reveal the truth about everything in Eternum to the world, thus causing Ulysees to go bankrupt, Calypso is now free and gains the ability to travel to the "real world" and makes frequent visits to the gang.

again these are just theories, might be a bit far fetched.

Calypso might want to be a dominating woman, but she isn't one. That is the core of her story arc. She is completely under the control of others and only slowly gaining back control of her own life (if she even is alive in that sense). So much so that even after she was freed she had no idea what to do with herself but to sit around and wait until she was called for to help Orion and the crew. That is the point of her story for now.

any way to enable "skip transitions"? game is unplayable with them on. literally headache worthy

any way to enable "skip transitions"?

Not that I know of, maybe someone else knows more.

game is unplayable with them on.

Not for me and I bet not for others here too.

literally headache worthy

I haven't had a single headache since I started playing this Game.

 

[sexypeanut]

I don't think there is.

Do you mean that the transitions make the experience worse (how??) or that your PC can't handle them (once again, how??)

You mean as a good but not canon ending, I hope?
I sincerely hope that once the gang will get the throne of Acheron ( whatever it means) and they solve the Eternum lore, there will be a more "and they lived happily forever after all together" like in OIAL, honestly.

Yeah I admit I'm a softie and I want the best for all of them so Caly for me is part of the gang.

No, as a True Ending.

That's actually one of my pet peeves with OIAL. I mean, I don't mind happy endings. But happy endings need to be earned, IMO. And one that doesn't have that much of a cost on the protagonist's end is basically "meh" to me (and yes, losing Asmodeus was hardly a cost since we barely even knew the guy).

Which is why the ending for 0.7 gives me hope that Cari won't pull his punches this time around and make the group actually earn their ending...and by earn I mean that there will be actual costs to their path to victory, ones that will actually sting this time around.

Gh!
That sound harsh to me, but I can understand your logic behind it and I must say that it work imho, though I admit i would like something less heartbreaking.
But yeah, I agree on the fact that, this time, the choices must mean something.
I may have explained myself badly, I didn't want a fairy tale ending, but the hope they could finish together in a more meaningful way, even though I admit it's difficult to get all the girls ( Caly included), without a very high and painful price to pay would sound bad as you said.
It can't be a gold pave to victory this time true, or else everything we've seen so far would be wasted, and I don't think Cari has this in his mind planned for us.
I'm honest I would like an ending that will see all the gang together ( I can dream, nothing to lose on it), but I will accept whatever the outcome will be, the game so far is more than I could have ever hoped, so let's confide in Cari ability to give us a great ending.
