Others - Goodbye Eternity [v0.13.0] [RNGeusEX]

When the game first started out, it had such great potential, however now the revised story just dumps on you more and more ridiculous stakes every single chapter, without slowing down at any point.
That pacing and singular objective makes the game feel more like a kinetic novel than a sandbox.

Overall:
The game has phenomenal art and easily could've been extraordinary if only poor story/development choices didn't hold it back.

I Would Add An Extra Star For The Art & Animation But After Consideration, It's Not Worth It. The Game Spirals Downhill Completely After Noriko's Story. Beforehand It Was Very Vanilla And You Could Choose Not To Go With The NTR Options. But Post Noriko Story, You're Forced To Deal With The Authors Deranged NTR Fantasies... May Change In The Future Depending On If I Decide To Touch This Game Again When It's More Complete....

First of all, please understand that I am writing this review using a translator because I am a user who plays in a non-English speaking country. Some people may find the story unpleasant, but I really liked it because I like stimulating elements such as drugs and NTR. (The routes are not necessarily all about corruption, and there is a general love route, so I think even people who don't like such stimulating things will be able to enjoy it. However, it is a bit unfortunate that other people are upset because of these stimulating elements. How about supporting the development process while respecting everyone's tastes? Just like I am not upset because there is a pure-love route, lol)

As someone who has been following this since the first release on F95 I am heavily disappointed. Game started very strong but with each chapter added the game is actively getting worse.

tldr before I go in depth, the game has become a hold CTRL simulator for me as the storyline has gotten to absurd amounts of ridiculousness and edging. At least the scenes are good and at some point the story was intriguing so I give three stars.

Now for some spoiler chapter by chapter analysis






But yeah I'll come back when the game is finished and hopefully won't feel compelled to hold CTRL at a certain point. Really hoping this can salvage itself and end on a 3-4 rating.

Don't really understand the hate towards the dev. But I hope the story will continue to improve towards acceptable endings. The build up for it is amazing, according to my taste at least... So I just want to say, keep up the good work, I guess?

One of the best NSFW games I've ever played. The story is interesting and there are different paths you can take... The CG is good and a change from the styles we see all the time, and I appreciate the French language support

As of [v0.12.0]

A very good and unique game. The artstyle is unlike most AVNs I've played. The story is interesting enough, although it sorta becomes a slog/gets lost in the sauce. Decent writing and humor though. I've seen way worse.

This is one of the few games where I don't really mind the sandbox elements. Usually I dislike them, but in this game I think it's at least well executed. Locations on the map only reveal themselves to progress the story. In a way it kinda just plays like a regular VN, so it doesn't add much but it doesn't get too in the way either.

The game features a lot of lewd content and characters, with each character getting an arc to shine. Great variety and animations, and again the unique art really stands out.

Overall I would definitely recommend this game. I think the low-ish score has to due with bugs/crashes (which I didn't really encounter) or with some drama because this game plays like a harem but will not have a harem ending? Doesn't really bother me.

Don't play if your goal is to just get a quick fap. The storyline is ABSOLUTELY horrendous and is veiled under the "realism" (Weird for an NSFW game anyway..).

The sex scenes themselves are only good in animation and quality but feels lackluster in everything else. Sudden switches, no cum visible at all (creampies, cumshots are very limited and aren't even included at times, you'll just be greeted with white flashes). It also tries to ragebait you with NTR (will never actually happen, but it gets annoying as it drags out the sex scenes you want). Sex scenes are ALSO very hard to get because the story is VERY, VERY CONVULUTED. Have fun trying to spend around almost an hour just fast forwarding to even get any sex scene.

Storywise, it's.. kinda ass. It's not something you'd expect from a porn game since it tries to be different (becomes annoying though) and is kinda confusing, so don't even bother.

Overall for me? One star. The lengthy boring shit I have to skip through pisses me off

Its not bad, really nice art but so little content.
Every update covers one girl. And that one Li for that update gets like 2 lewd scenes. Its just abysmally little. Literally a clicking simulator then its sex scene with zero build up or foreplay and the actual scenes aren't even that good.

Its like hentai that draws well for 3 pages. It doesn't matter if its good, you're telling me it took a year for that? Pathetic

If you know nothing about storytelling, you have to play this. So that you could know even less than nothing.
On the bright side the game basically holds your arm while doing main quest, so if you are like me and don't want to read a lot, you should play it.
Speaking of main quests, those are also the only quests? This game has a sandbox tag but it feels very linear, just with option to replay some sex scenes. Outside of main quest there is nothing to do really.
The art and animations are really nice, but even so, you have to play the game at least twice if you want to unlock them all, which might be annoying since story takes quite a while to progress.

Dev needs to go back and make some tweaks before he gets too far into the game. The graphics and music.. chefs kiss. i love the vibes. Story-line is basically an isekai. One of the characters was actually reading: isekai for dummies... which is funny.

The things that need work.. sexual scenes are short... and dives straight in. with one chick who you can take a love interest in, in the same scene it goes from first time they both flirt, to straight up sex to saying they love each other... all in the same scene... What are we 15?? completely ruined the mood.
as a writer.. i can sayits just plain bad writing there.

why waste time putting areas on the map you can visit... if you can ONLY do somewhere there when the story wants you to be there. Need to talk to this character at park tomorrow?? literally NOTHING you can do till then... no point on clicking anywhere else other than home. Going to sleep is even pointless... because when its time to "sleep" the day AUTOMATICALLY goes forward as soon as you enter your bedroom. so whats the point??

The are i guess story lines for several characters but you cant flip around, you can only go in the direction the Dev has mapped out.

the back button only lets you go back a few scenes. Also if you back up PAST where you clicked a choice.. it wont let you change your answer... unless you saved BEFORE the choice.. scroll back will NOT work. you must load that save.

nothing major.. these are all fixable. these seem to be the major complains from other reviews as well. id suggest working on these as apposed to new content next.

the best. wish the game was updated more frequently and that there are "bad" routes. hopefully with 0.12, updates will also be more frequent. bought this game long ago on itch.io when it was called extra life. i have no qualms with any of the girls nor their designs. just waiting patiently for more updates.

Everything about this game is amazing.
From gameplay, story, and drama.

Only issue is the bugs, but I think they'll sort it out properly soon.


I hope this game continues to progress up until the ending.

veeeery good one, will wait new updates
went through all routes, nice drawing, cool story cool characters, great work, I've seen a lot of games, and can tell that this game 100% deserves 5 stars
i would recommend everyone to play this!!

Snip snap bitch!
Time for a review and this is a weird one.

Anal content: Barely there, I count maybe 2 to 3 fast scenes, since the h-content are kind of fast.

The game starts strong, the story are interesting, good characters, the art is top notch, there is good music, for a VN it had great potential which sadly falls flat very quickly.

Let's start with the good, the art, animation and musics are pretty good and its the main reason for my review being 2 star's instead of 1. But that is it, the only good part.

Now for the problematic's part:

1 - The story start's strong with good characters, maybe with some deep themes like remorse and depression, but it doesnt develop further and gets stale very fast. The mystery and almost everthing are under developed;

2 - Bad gameplay. This game could be a full VN with only the option to go foward, but I dont know why the developer choosed to use unity to bring a map and making us to click in every part of the map to "walk", is basically useless and only consumes times since is the onl thing you do, there is no minigame or anything like that. Oh and the perfomance are bad;

3 - Bugs and stuttering constant's, specially on change of map. The music is bugged too since only play one track;

4 - Underwhelming h-content. The art is good but the fucking is mild to lame, and with fast animations.

That is it.

PROs
- Beautiful art;
- Good music;

CONs
- Story underdeveloped;
- Lame gameplay;
- Bad perfomance;
- Bugs;
- Low h-content;

Overall, I expected a lot more but the only thing which this game is good are the art part.

art is properly amazing, genuinely one of the absolute best when it comes to art I've ever played. The story is nothing to write home about, but it did make me interested enough to read most of it as there isn't as much useless word vom- sorry "lore-building" in the game so I could progress thru the scenes at a decent pace AND still have the patience to read the lore. Overall the ART is AMAZING and should be played solely for that.

The art is good—that’s really the only positive thing I can say about this game. The writing isn’t the worst I’ve seen on this site, but that’s hardly a praise. The characters are dull, the story leans heavily on the worst kind of isekai clichés, and everything feels artificially stretched out with empty dialogue (NOT EVEN MINIGAMES, WHAT A DISGRACE!!!) and pointless narrative branches that lead nowhere.

Switching from Ren'Py to the Godot engine was a poor decision. The developer doesn't seem to have a solid grasp of either engine, but at least Ren'Py offered fewer opportunities to break things. In its current state, the game struggles with basic functionality: it doesn't run properly in fullscreen on resolutions above 1920x1080, switching menus too quickly can freeze the game, and the cursor sometimes jumps to the top-left corner when selecting a location on the city map. These are just a few of the many small but frustrating bugs I encountered in the hour and a half I spent playing.
Honestly, I don’t see any reason to spend time on a game in this condition.

Don’t waste your time. If you like the art, you're better off just downloading an unlocked gallery version.

Top tier art. The animation is not bad too. The ambience itself makes you feel comfortable already. And I also like the interface. It is rare to find a game that you can disrobe any females.

I am not that picky towards the characters. And it is good enough if they have their own traits that is not easily forgotten.

Most people saying that the game crashes all the time. Well yes, I used my old computer for the first time and it stuck at the title screen already. So I just used my new computer which I bought to do my college project. I finish the latest version smoothly without any problem.

I understand that mc is a loser, and this is the truth. Getting a new life he still doesn't get stronger or whatever. But what do you expect? like, he suddenly become very strong that can defeat anyone blocking him? or become a billionare and controls everything? In my opinion he's not really doing nothing in this life, at least he is no longer a virgin.

And of course the game is unrealistic. You'd be crazy if you really think that you can bang a milf and her daughter because they love you. I don't understand why people keep arguing whether the plots makes sense or not. Damn, you are playing a 18+ game. Do you really need to be that analytic while jerking off?

It is also totally understandable that choosing different choices converge to similar results. It is hard to make entirely different paths, since it is almost like making several stories. But it gives different scenes for each paths which I really need to praise.

From beginning to the latest version, it maintains a steady pace. I don't see any drops in quality no matter in art or story. And it is really user-friendly as it gives you step-by-step hints. You still know what to do when you come back next time.

You wake up back in your teenage years after dying a dog's death in previous life. Deciding to make things right this time you somehow end up fucking every woman you see, your family included.
Game has love (good) or corruption (bad) paths you can go on. It plays like a visual novel but you need to move on the map like in a sandbox game, kinda weird. Story is linear, going through each girl's chapter one at a time.
Gorgeous visuals, pretty girls and the best background images ever. I recognized the artist immediately. Easy to follow in-game guide.
Game runs on godot engine and is laggy as hell, whenever you change places there's a delay. Text is too small and there's no chatbox, making it hard to read sometimes. Gallery only shows images or animations, without a way to replay scenes. Story follows a plot but it's a bit loose and there are long dry parts of chatting and moving around before anything juicy happens.

Crash simulator.
This game is nice but you'd be spending more time trying to not crash at random than actually being able to enjoy its content.

There is also no fixes because the dev decided for some god forsaken reason to change the game's engine. That said it is still very well made in terms of its art and content. Much much better than what a scammer
