Hmm, OiaL had 10 updates in 2 years and got completed, this one has 8 updates in almost 4 years, not including bug fixes and still ongoing, I'm a bit skeptical to try it, for fear of not having that much content and then be stuck in a painfully loop of waiting for next update, play it, then wait some more, still, since i loved OiaL, i'll add this one in "to be played" list

It took me like 30+ hours to complete (obviously might be different according to your reading speed etc.) and updates have a lot of content. Only reason not to play it would be the dreaded Eternum withdrawals

It's (historical, pseudo-magic) gobbeldygook. It does nothing noticeable and the game has yet to give us another chance to read it under other circumstances.

The updates are of much higher quality and the writing has been significantly developed. Between coding, music, just basic scene composition - everything is different and more skilled. The updates take a long time specifically because of the increase in emphasis on quality and story telling.

The girl suggests you'll know when to open it. It's a Chekov's Gun. You don't open it then, you open it later when it's ready to be fired off.
But as said elsewhere, it leads to a bad end for now until it's put into the story at the right time.

Hi,
I'm interested in *Eternum*, but I have a serious concern.
I'm autistic, and I can be emotionally overwhelmed by certain content – especially unexpected violence.
I'm not very young, and I don’t always pick up on subtle warnings in stories. Also, my English isn't perfect, so please keep answers simple.
I might just read instead of playing, depending on what the game includes.
**Question:**
Does *Eternum* contain extreme or disturbing violence later in the story?
Like gore, torture, or very dark psychological scenes?
I’m okay with emotional or dramatic scenes – but I don’t want to be surprised by something too heavy.
Please just give a clear answer. I don’t want to argue or explain myself more.
Thank you for understanding.

I think some events involving Luna might be a bit too much for you. Also the collector event is technically torture.

I'll give my two cents, but I might be forgetting some scenes.
There's not gore, torture or anything else extreme. The game is mostly humorous action-adventure.
There are a couple of scenes that are more intense, with some scary elements. I don't remember how many, but I think it was only literally two scenes, someone correct me if I'm wrong. Those were not really very scary, more like intense and unsettling, and were kind of short. But I'm a horror fan, so I might be numbed to this kind of things and might thus be judging incorrectly. I personally think they are mild and short, and shouldn't be a problem, but you might want to get feedback from more users.
If in doubt, I could track down where it was so you can CTRL+skip through those passages, or you might want to avoid the game to be safe. I personally feel they shouldn't be a problem, but it will be very dependent on your sensibility.
Hope that helps.

yes, there are some "events" involving jerry, that might be somewhat disturbing for some audiences.

Oh, yes, I forgot about that, specially the scene with the ogre. It might be a bit too much for you, mosesxs . There's not a lot, but there are some slightly gore scenes that might be too much for you.

There are nightmare scenes where the MC has some potentially disturbing and morbid situations, a couple of jump scares, and some story scenes involving horror and gore. The nightmares and dream scenes can seem morbid, suspenseful, and may be unsettling or psychologically disturbing for some. There is surprise violence that can seem lighthearted and humorous for some, but may be unsettling or disturbing for others.
