VN - Ren'Py - Eternum [v0.8.6 Public] [Caribdis]

I think this is definitely one of the best VNs out there, the game had me hooked for a day after I downloaded it

The story isn't the typical porn vn plot, there is actual depth beyond the porn andI really appreciate that

This is what SAO could've been. With that, that's enough said. But honestly, the models on this story are absolutely gorgeous... maybe a bit of the same face used in almost every girl and that's a bit of a turn off, but they are all still insanely hot.
The story is fun and well written, it's intriguing and immersive... 5/7 do recommend on playing it. Just great.

Eternum is a masterfully crafted visual novel blending humor, suspense, and romance with breathtaking visuals and immersive storytelling. Each character is distinct and memorable, with meaningful choices that shape a gripping narrative. Its rich world-building and emotional depth make it a standout experience that keeps players hooked from start to finish.

Masterpiece.

Top of the list of all the visual novels or even games. The story is so engaging that it's hard to find better written story. Played 0.8.5 and there is actually lots to play, so if you are thinking is there even content. there is.

Only thing I hope, that the story won't pace too fast in future updates since, I feel like there is still story to be written.

The story and art are great! Great mystery and intrigue. I certainly recognize some of the story devices but I think they were used quite tastefully. It's been fun. Soundtrack is great. Excited to see the next update.

I usually don't like VN in general, however this is a really good VN which left me very engaged with the story. The story is great, it gas pretty good jokes, & Great Characters (I really like the MC design as well). One thing I don't like perhaps just too many Easter eggs (frm other games in particular) . However still I'd say it's a solid 5/5 VN! Kudos to the devs/writers.

(Justice for my man chang tho, he deserves better)

I really like the story and character development in this one. A few times I event laughed out loud because found some scenes to be really funny. Overall it is a great game and I would recommend reading it.

Just an overall great game, definitely give it a shot.

You can tell the devs care about the world they are building and have put in a ton of effort to build out the story and the environments.

The game also has some of the longest and most fluid animated scenes I've come across, which are more than the same 5 frames repeating over and over like other games

One of the best AVNs I've ever played.

Great and various LIs made in Honey Select 2, world(s) building and story are great too, though for some people this is quite a slow burn (I don't really mind with a masterpiece like this)

AAA game. Production values are insane.

Cool story, good universe, love the girls.

It's intentionally a slow burn with progression, mostly teasing for the first many hours. Be aware going in and it won't be a disappointment!

I've never before written a review for anything....... but this game, man.

The story is gripping and I couldn't stop playing for hours on end just to find out what happens, and i didnt even stay for the fap (mostly). The story may be similar to some other things.... but its almost unmatched in the AVN world, IMO, especially since there are way too many games set in a college setting and, really, have not much else going for them, for example.
How being inside Eternum is portrayed is also pretty much how you would expect a cyberpunk future to be or feel.. or medieval times, or fantasy stories or whatever else one can imagine. Hell, I wanna play a game like this in real life.... but oh well.
It IS a bit predictable at times because most people have been on the planet for a while and pretty much every idea has been turned into a book/movie/show by now....... buuuuut if you ignore that little detail, you'll see it for what it is. Which is, fucking awesome.

The visuals? Top, fucking SS tier.
I could be nitpicky about a few things but the good massively outweighs the bad. Those few things being the feeling of some renders being seemingly lower quality than the others and characters sometimes appearing a bit bland... but that can be ignored.
The animations, imo, do not in the slightest suffer from those "problems", since every sex scene is fappable to and all the girls look amazing. Yes, the faces aren't "realistic", yes the girls proportions aren't realistic... but it's a game, not real life, and it should be enjoyed as such.
The sex scenes/animations are also unparalleled to most AVNs out there, and even most short rule34 videos imo. Yes they are generally looped, but the loop is meticulously crafted and awesome enough to drain your balls.

It's got decent humor and decent music, there's a gallery so you don't have to save/load all the time just to have a quick fap, the characters are believable and lovable....
The story is linear, however, and your choices don't really affect anything too big. Except, maybe, which LI's path(s) you're on. But you can have a harem, so, that's just awesome.

The only thing I would like is more kinks. But honestly, the game is a wankbank already, so I can live with that.

Give it a try. You won't be able to stop and discern what's real anymore.

I love the story, each woman has her own problems and stories each with her own personality, the relationship that develops in the story feels natural, I have laughed a lot, I have given me chills, I have felt sorrow and sadness brother this game is next GEN even sometimes I forget that I am playing a game because +18 xd

It's absolutely the best harem vn in the market, nothing comes close.

The plot is very good and interesting.
The LI's are amazing.
The H-scenes are the best I've seen in any Honey Select game.
Dialogue is great.

would give it higher than 5* if I could

best out there, played it as my first one and left me desiring the same in other games only to be sorely disappointed. Perfect mixture of good plot, an interesting story and well thought out characers with depth as well as looks. thanks for releasing this!

Wow this game is in top 3 best games ever !!!! beautiful animation of sex scene ! a lot of amazing body ! good history ! everything is here ! wow enjoy it ! thank the developer for create a game like this !!

Toppest tier for harem VN ever is settled in this game.
Visuals 10/10
Story is not boring at all and not slow, so there is really no desire to skip it.
There is a bit of improvement here and there might be, i.e. female voice overs for each character in some scenes might be good with toggle option.

Version Played: v0.8.5

One of the best games I've played on here - up there with Pale Carnations, which is high praise! Similar to that, this feels like it sets the standard for all H games for me. An interesting and engaging story so far, very good artwork, and a nice range of characters with distinct personalities and backgrounds.

Positives:

1. Story is very good, easy to get invested in right from the get-go.
2. Art is very good. I wouldn't say it's the best looking VN I've played, but it's very high standard and I've no complaints at all here.
3. Polish. I really note this from the UI, which I think is excellently designed and presented. Too often VNs focus on only the sex, or the story etc, whilst forgetting the smaller details like the UI which really make your presentation stand out. Not so this.

Negatives

1. None yet.

Probably the most easy to put 5 stars on it, on all level it delivers, story wise, character wise, as an AVN it's the first time where i was even blown by the realisation at time, there's some passage you'll be litteraly like "WHAT", the kind of thing you'll see only in this one,
As a conclusion the music track is top notch, especially in the lewds scenes it fits perfectly the vibe, i'm sure there's some songs you'll want to listen them after your playthrough.
ps: english isn't my linguo sorry if there's some mistakes/mispelling

One of the best visual novels I've played so far. The fact that they're both connected is insane. I highly recommend playing the first visual novel before this one. The characters, story, and worlds of Eternum look incredible. I love the characters and the story. Little by little, with each chapter, it draws you deeper into its mystery. I love the music.

P.S. I think this is the longest review I've ever done, and this is my third because I'm not very good at writing reviews. I'm looking forward to more updates. Love you so much, Charibdis <3

One of my best game all time. Visuals are so good, when I first started it I couldn't feel it was a game made with renpy and story is also so good, that it could be a good selling game on steam even without the porn parts.
