FF7 is a pointless comparison, it isn't a harem game in which the canon ending is to end up with both, because one dies anyway and the other one doesn't.

True, but it is also quite strange to be added to the game. Not only has it been a narrative point that Orion can't choose (for the canon route at least) but it also has been a point that he would have to treat them all equally. I would have to check again, but I'm certain it had been spelled out quite clearly in the recent updates.
And that is where some people went
and I can totally understand that, being one of them. It was made literally a narrative point only to be then worked around with split paths now. Not my game, but still enough of a contrast to comment on.As in there is totally things it conflicts with but what would it actually bring?

I'm really curious to see the arguments on Patreon/Discord even if they are probably the same ones that were stated here and especially the state of the vote at the end.
If it's almost 50/50, like it was the last time I saw it here, I'm also curious to see how Cari will react

That's where I see the main problem he has invited.
Whichever group don't get their preferred way, will likely be a bit pissed off.
It would've been far better for his game & his fans if he had never suggested something so divisive.

Yes, that's what I said about the Penny/Vampires and Luna/Werewolves choice. That choice shouldn't have existed in the first place and unfortunately it could continue on that path.
But yes, implementing the vote result will displease half of his community that currently pays for the game, because I imagine it's only accessible to those who pay. This all seems like a bad move

Caribdis has consistently delivered top tier work for years now. If he thinks the pacing would be better with a split I trust his judgment. Especially if you're not cut off the girl you didn't choose route, like many other games would. I'm sure I'll enjoy whatever he cooks up regardless.

And that was kinda the point I tried to make. Maybe that wasn't too clear
And in my opinion so far the narrative of the wholesome harem had largely only been added to and even the werewolf/vampire split was already very strange in that regard.
And that's where I see the tension coming from, this poll (or rather it's currently likely result) just straight up doesn't fit with the vibe of the narrative so far and I seem to not be the only one who thought that. So it didn't surprise me that this one stirred the pot so much actually.
And yes I agree, making the poll was a bit of a mistake. It would likely have been even less of a problem had Cari just done it instead of made the poll about it. That only gives time for fronts to harden. But now we gotta see how it turns out I guess. At the moment I trust.

You´re right, she totally did. I just had a flashback to the sloppy sounds while Orion was checking the door. But I need to see it.
Exactly!

I´m old school, I think I still prefer the visual stimulation. This game LI´s are made to be seen.It's called mental masturbation.

A good idea but too far-fetched. But given the rumours of an Annie and Luna threesome, maybe Nova could watch that one and get the prize at the end.How about Nova/Annie, Luna watches(for instructional purposes) and gets cumshot.

True. Branching is fun when it's short and has no long-term repercussions.
Branching sucks when a decision you made 30 hours ago is affecting your current content

Thats why i dont mind the branching in Eternum unlike for example in FF7R you have to replay the game all the way down to change your decision just to see another gondola date with different characters.True. Branching is fun when it's short and has no long-term repercussions.

thats what avn is for Adult Visual Novel
and I dont think its about beeing oldschool etc., men are just more visually stimulated in general hahaWhy not a compromise? After MC makes his choice, he rethinks and decides to tell the other girl where he's going. And naturally she's going to find some excuse to either follow him, or ask to come with him. And also naturally, she ends up watching, or maybe getting seen at the end.

That's the whole point of branching... Otherwise why have it? if it's pointless you're just wasting your development time AND your players time...True. Branching is fun when it's short and has no long-term repercussions.

Why not have both scenes happening separately then, so the player can just have both?
