But really, thats the choices the game wants you to make to have an enjoyable time. Wouldn't need to.
Yeah, then dont click the option if it is not needed?

Eternum is a long and story-focussed game. This means that you will not have early lewd scenes with the LIs and progression is slow. And to have some lewd scenes early on, there are usually only two options:
- prostitutes
- sluts who do it with everyone

So it is your choice to either do it (and then hopefully not to complain about that because you only want virgins...) or just skip those early lewd scenes to wait for some action with the LIs.

I'd stay away from Harem games in that case. I'm yet to play a VN with a halfway rational excuse for a Harem. I enjoy them, but they require turning your brain off

Personally this game excels with a good overarching narrative, likeable LIs (there's only one that I don't love, and even then I still enjoy her moments), fun writing and the incredibly good H scenes. The H scenes in this game might be my favourite set in any VN
True that.Harem games need you to turn the brain off.The thing that makes Eternum good when compared to other games is the quality of renders and camera angles,lighting and animation quality.The sex scenes are long and well made eye candy ones.Good renders can always carry a weakly written scene

No problem there. Solely annoyed by MC thinking of himself as such a great guy, so much holier as all the other "scumbags" you cockblock during the whiteknighting, but he is just the same. If that would be intended and the game was aware of it, I'd be fine as its part of the story/character development - but it appeared to me the Dev sees the MC as the hero who saves all these girls from those "evil" other men while being such a good good guy.

Prostitutes are fine with me. Don't think the dev is fully aware of what MC did there, though (paying with Annies gift, letting her wait 45 min, all while she gets him another gift, all on first day there together). Don't think it was Devs intention to have MC behave so lowly just for players to see some action, as the world doesn't react to it, nor is the MC aware of was he did there.

He does become much more straight forward in his answers later on, and much more "goal-oriented", but I can't go into too much detail as it would spoil the later part of the game, just that his demeanor does get better.
The game does a fantastic job at character development throughout.
Look forward to that.

You can do a somewhat evil path, but all it does is basically just lock you out of the romance options for all the girls eventually, so some of those choices are bait, if you decide you want to see "everything" in a playthrough.
If the choices are simp / dont simp, and refusing to simp makes you see a family free version of the game then I assume the creator wants you to simp or thinks thats the way to go. But one gets used to it. Most games have that "kiss her ass, get sex" logic.

Would prefer a kind guy that is kind just for the sake of being kind, without doing it to get sex, and is proactive and upfront when wanting to sleep with a girl.

Thanks for the heads up. :)

Orion's entire character early on is that he's a guy who wants to make a name for himself and score some girls (as he had mentioned to Chang back at the train ride). He DOES get better later on, but it's a character flaw that he basically carries up until a certain crucial point in the story.

In what way changes his behaviour after that certain crucial point in the story?

In very simple terms he goes from asking and trying to just simply doing.
From beta to alpha.
But this is the super simple explanation of the events.

You really gotta play to that point to understand what we are talking about as we don't want to spoil what happens, as the scene where it all just "clicks" has some of the biggest implications and spoilers of the entire game.

I would see the change differently. He switches from "wanting to get ass" to realizing he actually cares for them and wants to take their emotions into consideration (within the constrains of AVN harem logic of course).

Just had a thought about Idriel and Calypso, sorry if this has already been discussed, I searched a bit but there are so many comments that I got lost :KEK:

What if they already know each other before Calypso was in the box, before Idriel was the Idriel we know now (when Idriel was "human", and for me that will make her the woman in Orion's dreams. Probably got discussed here already but I don't remember)? There's nothing that follows from this question tbh. I'm mostly curious to know if Idriel has a history with Calypso or the elves. Or if Calypso/the elves know about Idriel, as she knows how to travel across worlds.

At this point remains Annie and especially Luna and Dalia im anticipating for scenes with, i know we had at least a thing with annie but on my run strictly nothing happens with Dalia or Luna (sadface).
But maybe i've just missed that, there is Nancy ofc but i can't manage to make my mind about her.
