So Smooth Criminal popped up in my playlist on the way to work just now. And when the the "Annie are you okay?" segment came on, I misheard it as "Annie are you walking?" and I was cracking up because it randomly reminded me of Orion railing Annie and the "ooh my legs are jelly now" aftermath Cari has been doing.

You, Sir, are in fact very unlucky. Because if you start from the top, it can only go downwards. And Eternum is the peak.
Nevertheless, welcome to the cult of eternum worshippers!
I just finished the game to date, and this has to be an understatement. I've only played a handful of these sorts of games, but most of them either scrape by with some pleasant artwork and not much else (four elements trainer, rogue like, etc) or they're.. really rough all around. It's an interesting medium, but it's pretty clear that almost everyone involved in it is either a total amateur (no shame in that) or pumping out some pretty low-effort slop if they could do better.

This one blew my mind. I was not expecting to care much about the story or its characters, much less be impressed by how good it all is. The art is consistently beautiful (discussions of models/rendering aside, simply knowing how to compose an image is so important and they nail this in Eternum), the use of sound effects and music for humor and tension are flawless, I love every single character, and even the broader plot outsmarted me when I expected this to be some kind of lazy rehash of "Ready Player One" (a book/movie that I fucking despise) with a harem tacked on.

I can think of only one bit of this that I didn't thoroughly enjoy, and that was a video game reference that I felt was a little too indulgent. I found that other game pretty dull to begin with though, so it wasn't for me.

You´re assuming Caly isn´t a side girl herself.
Considering that she has hidden progression variables in the game's code compared to other side girls, no, not really. Not to mention she's basically a lot more relevant to the main plot compared to other side girls like Eva or Maat, so she's basically a main LI whose progression just happens to be a lot different compared to the other 7 main LIs.

Yeah I expect as long as Cally doesn't get her own Gallery the average user will still think she's a Side girl... :HideThePain:

I know she´s the most important girl after the seven LI´s, but to me it´s like being in a house with your family and a butler. The butler may be considered family, but technically isn´t part of it. It´s the same here. It´s the main girls+Calypso for me. Until it becomes official in the gallery or something.

She would be in the space between main girl and side girl, whatever that place might be. Not important enough to be M.G but not irrelevant enough to S.I.

;) In short, we all know that she is also partly main LI View attachment 5174321

The rest depends on the future.
I didn´t know about that hidden code. Until it becomes official, I will work with what she is at the moment, which is a very important side girl.

Well, while you're waiting for her to be added to the main LI gallery list, I'll be having fun with her, already knowing that Caly is already LI for me. Because for me there is no such word as <side girls> 1000257529.png

Just because she is a SLI, doesn´t mean I won´t go for her scene if it´s there. That´s what I´ve been doing since she showed up.

Man, how the hell did I miss this gem. I remember downloading a long time ago, but just ctrl my way to the "fun" parts. Been on a horror kick for a while though and gave this a try since it had the tag and christ it is very well made game.

Luna's weird precog is limited to her hands and she can glove up she might be down.
The events at the cafe between Luna and Annie (in 0.7) strongly suggest that there's going to be a threesome involving the two of them. Possibly a larger scene involving the two of them and one or more other LIs, but at least the two of them. Whether that means gloves, she just deals, somehow she (or perhaps MC) is able to shut it off for a while, or something else, we don't know. Perhaps it happens in Eternum, where the "weird precog" isn't a factor.
