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

[PervyParadox]

I just finished playing the update and I must say...HOT DAMN...what a ride, everything was top-notch, Cari and the team really know how to do top of the line shit.

Just one small thing that bothered me was the lack of "slice of life" so to speak. Major developments are brushed off as offscreen events (i.e. Orion telling the girls about his newfound power, the aftermath of Nancy-Nova threeway fun, no Penny development from last update, etc.) I feel a couple of renders exploring these plot lines and how each character react to them goes a long way in providing more meat to the story and the characters' progression, I feel this was better handed in previous episodes but in this one we jumped from one big event to the other without caching a breather, which I sorely missed, to be honest...

Would like to hear what do you think about that

I agree, especially about the reveals to the girls. That's twice I see Caribdis brush off a potential reaction montage or scene with the LI (when Orion understands that the NPCs are dead a few updates ago, and when he discovers his newfound power in the last update).

I feel like for the 1st, some sort of flashback could have been added OR maybe Orion talk a little bit with the Carters and Annie (like he does), except instead of going to sleep, all the other LI come over one after another so he can tell them at the same time or something (just to make it less complicated, since the environment wouldn't have to change or anything). Could have been a fun scene too. Just an idea though, it could have been different idk.

For the newfound power, a quick montage like Caribdis already did, but with Orion telling each girls/couple of girls with some reactions (Nancy slapping his head, Annie freaking out, Alex and Dalia looking at him suspiciously, Luna worried, Penny smothering him with her chest ( ) etc). Like not a long thing, but just to acknowledge it and take the opportunity to make a fun scene at the same time.

Anyway, I don't know. There was ways to do that, but Caribdis brushed them off. I mean I understand the work this great game needs so it doesn't bother me much, but yeah some major development are indeed being brushed off offscreens.

No fucking way I come into this thread after a while and see someone complain about "woke" shit in a porn game like Eternum
Istg ppl that complain that "everything is woke and its cringe" are just as, if not more annoying, than the actual "woke agenda" and I say this as someone who hates it when representation takes priority over good storytelling.

The game has a multiverse, MC with demonic powers who gains muscle as much as he blinks, a penis the size of an eggplant, and a girl winning against a man who's slightly heavier than her is the unbelievable part

Next someone gonna complain that Maat's character/scene is cringe cuz she's "DEI"

Extremists ruin everything, regardless of which end of the spectrum they've buried themselves in.

A boxing match is scheduled to last for 36 minutes (12 x 3), actual fighting time.
MMA is scheduled for 15-25.

Yes, there are breaks in between rounds, but there are breaks in battles, too.
Beat one oppo, then find and attack another. There can be a good 30+ seconds gap between one oppo & the next.
However, most street fights won't last 1 minute.
They feel like they go on for ages, when you're in them, but they're usually over pretty quickly.

The dude you're responding to clearly hasn't watched Dragon Ball.

Say, question for folks: I'm looking to free up a bit of space on my computer, work on my digital clutter... if I delete Eternum (heresy, I know, but still) until 0.9 comes out, will I still have my save files when I install the new version, or will I be wiped to 0?

They'll be in your appdata, but you can always back up you saves folder and put it back in when you reinstall.

Liking Mercer more than Mandrake is so terrible I can't take this list seriously.
Heck, even the 'worst-hairdo-of-all-time' Hassan minion is higher than Mandrake. Blergh.

Penny smothering him with his chest ( ) etc).

With... his chest?

 

[PervyParadox]

With... his chest?

Thanks, I had to edit that before I began imagining boy-Penny

 

[Padorublad3]

especially her winning against a dude 6 pounds heavier than her in a single strike lol

Well,yeah,the people above already answered that.Not to mention a kick to the throat/neck,Dalia is not just trained,she's really athletic.I believe she can hit very hard,especially with her high kicks.Seeing that guy,you can get he's not a berserk who takes hits like it’s nothing.So,there is nothing surprising about her winning against a guy like him

 

[Tremonia]

The whole Dalia weightlifting segment was a bit cringe & woke

Go, play with your LEGO, kid...

Any tier list that does not put entire main LI list as top tier is worthless to me, sorry.

The whole Dalia weightlifting segment was a bit cringe & woke (especially her winning against a dude 6 pounds heavier than her in a single strike lol) and so is the occasional simp dialogue like "you're the greatest I would do anything for you omg you're a goddess" but the rest of it is pretty great. Especially the heist, that was pure comedy. I also liked the general plot of this one. Made getting immersed really easy.

As someone who hates the "woke" agenda (although that word has become way too overused), Eternum is by no means "woke". The "wokest" thing I can think of in Eternum would probably be the gay hairstylist that did Penny's hair for the photoshoot, and while yes, I would've much preferred him to be a normal man (or just a woman, because women's hairstylists are usually women) it really isn't that bad, considering he doesn't play any major role, have any significant screen time or impact on the game.

Moving on from this woke shit debate.

Guys I think The Founder is not from Earth, but he manage to connect via Eternum, but not physically, thats why no one knows about his past and nobody has ever saw him, execept MC because he is the only able to see Idriel also
So The founder didn't found eternum because he was already there, he found Earth

It's a valid line of thinking and would go well side-by-side with the theory that Orion isn't from Earth, too.

This is a really interesting theory, maybe cliffhanger dots. Thank you for ideas

Question - am I doing somethin wrong or does this game really have 25 h-scenes with the total game size 9,36GB?
I checked the gallery(with the multi-mod) and I feel like either the gallery or the mod must be missing half the sceens. Or is it because they're all really hi-res? I'm genuinely confused...

This game has a lot of story before and between the scenes.

I see. So not a bug - just a very story-focused game. Thx for the explanation.
