If it's spicy she should call her OBGYN.Can't wait to eat that extra-spicy taco.![]()
But none of them are "the rich." OK, Victor apparently is, so maybe he bought one for Luna as a gift. That still leaves Annie, Dalia, Penny, and Nova who have managed to come up with the money to buy one. Sure, MC sells it to Penny as an investment, to help her Insta and other social media earnings, but she still has to have the money to do it.I was under the impression that they're upper middle
They still have to work for it, though. I mean, technically a lot of things perceived as for-the-rich (i.e. expensive cars, gadgets, jewelry) can be acquired if you grind hard enough. But yeah, that doesn't stop those things being perceived as such by the majority. /shrugsBut none of them are "the rich." OK, Victor apparently is, so maybe he bought one for Luna as a gift.

Expensive toy? Certainly. But within reach of the the middle-to-upper-middle class--even to teenagers in that class--if they really want it.
Of course. I guess we're thinking a little differently about "for the rich," though; I see that as meaning that only "the rich" can afford it, while it sounds like you're seeing it as based on the public perception. Fair enough.They still have to work for it
I clearly misremembered Luna´s size. She does have one of those bodies that´s better than it seems at first.Close. It's Nova, Alex, Penny, Cali, Annie, Dalia, Nancy, Luna.
Nova and Annie are the smalls; Luna, Alex and Dalia are the mediums; and Penny, Nancy and Cali are the larges.
As a fan, I appreciate that reference.yep,the update came out when chainsaw man was on hype
When Penny and Nancy are in the mix, everyone else looks small.I clearly misremembered Luna´s size.
The neural implant is permanently linked to the user. That's why Annie couldn't let Orion experience Eternum before or why Orion can't let Chang into the game. Nobody else but the user can use their respective implant and connectionWell,we are talking about 2035,not sure inflation would hit that hard,but it's still probably not that much compared to current times
Then,what stops adults from letting teens play when they are not playing themselves. IIRC,eternum doesn't link to exact person![]()
Considering he's already planning a new game it's not exactly encouraging.He already said it would go past 1.0 This post is older than 2 days.

$3500 is the cost of a very good game PC.Interesting then that few of the people we encounter there are rich. I'm sure Alex got hers for free or otherwise on account of being a Bardot, and MC and Nancy lucked into theirs free or almost-free, but Penny, Dalia, Annie, and Luna all presumably bought theirs at the regular market price (as well as Gertrude's husband buying two, and he has to be pissed at Gertrude and/or Nancy). None of them appear to be "rich;" they're all squarely middle-class, or perhaps upper-middle-class.
And even in 2025 dollars, $3500 certainly isn't cheap, but it's in reach for a middle-class adult who decides that's what he (or she) wants to spend it on. A teen or pre-teen? Maybe not so much.
Let's do not forget to mention Maximo. He started all this and supported her the whole time. Man of duty.
Exactly.Doesn't Maximo have a family IRL, though? I recall that was his beef with the old emperor; he wanted to "clock out" early for some family event and the emperor didn't allow it.
