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

[sexypeanut]

I'm also not into AI songs (lyrics-less AI music is 100% ok, tho), but I think you're making a mountain out of a molehill. AI music (and visual art) is here to stay and more and more devs will make use of it; some of them won't even tell it to their players.

After what happened back in February (or early March, dunno), it's completely understandable why some tracks (or even the majority of them) will be AI. It also saves lots of time, since looking for the just right track for a scene isn't fast at all.

I personally have no problems if background music become 100% AI and actual music is reserved for more dramatic or sexier moments.

just came here to say:

i'm so fucking tired of side characters beeing like "do you know who I am?"
like what the fuck, AGAIN?

and the over power mc is soooooooooo cringy
feels like I'm 13 again watching naruto or some other shit.

and why is it that EVERYONE IS ALLLWAYS SOOOOOOOOOO ATRACTED TO THE MC? this mf isn't even doing anything
suddenly eveyone is "I can't stop thinking about him"


Atleast the author improved (a little bit) the pre-sexscenes dialog, cuz in the previous games it was like:
"oh no we r stepbrothers/stepmother/stepson we can't do that"
- naaahhh suck my dick plz
"ok wow so big"
???

game still fine tho, but I don't think the story is better than others games with 100/200 votes. I guess it received that many votes because of the visuals. Some "missions" in ethernum are so fucking boring, like one of the firsts in the spooky/haunted server, that was one of the most boring shits i've ever seen.

Replayed the first ep as I recreate my old saves to catch up. I forgot how great that entire sequence with MC's first time on Ion was. Visuals are great. Forgot how funny the game was, too. The whole cafe competition was fun. The 40 year old not-mafia students crack me up.

Good times ahead.

looking for the right track makes the game better. also caribdis makes a lot of money from this game he could just pay someone to compose a few songs

Well yes, but if royalty free music sites are starting to become more hostile to AVN devs then searching for the right track is going to be a lot more difficult in the future.

Plus Cari mentioned on Discord that he wants to commission songs sparingly, as artists don't always get the mood that he wants for the scene and that back and forth until they get it right takes time (and could cause delays in the future if, say, he has the game ready but the songs have yet to be finished). Then there's also the fact that not a lot of artists would want to associate their work with a porn game, so the pool becomes smaller. /shrugs

It is genuine hell for any creator producing sexual content.

All the quality stock providers have "no pornography" in their licensing agreements - and I sort of don't want to name the second-rate ones I'm using for fear of someone being a twat and making them more aware of things being used for AVNs.

AI is really the only feasible alternative. They (the providers) are cutting their nose off to spite their face, they could make money, but instead choose to uphold weird morality, where sex is bad, but you can be as violent in your content as you damn please.

 

[housekinokuni1974]

its a damn shame all this "music" affair and from what i read, dev doesn't have so many option, its one of the rare game where the soundtracks is really good, lets hope he manages to keep that quality

They are big updates so it's fine with me it's when it's small as shit taking a long time it becomes an issue for me looking at you WVM.

 

[sexypeanut]

So we are into 1 update per year territory now.

Cari promised the next ones (0.10+) might be smaller, but we'll see...

 

[elbo911]

One person's promise is another one's threat. Or something along that line.
