VN Ren'Py Eternum [v0.8.5 Public] [Caribdis]

[Dorfnutter]

Overall a great Update, but IMO a bit weaker than the previous ones.

I agree with all these points. It was probably one of the weaker updates.

Jokes aside, I agree with your points. It was a great technical update, but it indeed felt a bit rushed story-wise

...Guess I'm one of the few who thought 0.8 was the best update since 0.5. Loved the New World arc feeling like a proper adventure, was giggling at the Stanley Parable section, almost went to heaven with all the Annie stuff that happened, and loved the action packed stuff that happened in the Valley of Kings and final section of the update (not to mention the "action" we got with Alex and Dalia).

The only critique I probably have is that the 0.7 cliffhanger was resolved a tad quicker in the beginning of the update than I hoped. But then again I should have expected it given that this is set in the same universe where a drug lord moonlighting as a tour guide conveniently offered quick body disposal to some guys who got a cult leader killed, no questions asked.

The endings are always good but the cliffhangers are always just drama bait.
It resolved about how I expected.

As someone mentioned the Stanley Parable part only works if you played it (which I didn't) otherwise its tedious and kind of annoying.

0.5 is probably one of the best updates, very well rounded. 0.6 probably has my favorite intro, especially if you play the last scene 0f 0.5 and transition into 0.6. Makes the Jerry narration much better.

Well I haven't played it either but I have heard of it so there's that.

True enough. I'd never even heard of it till today. So any reference went over my head.

For 0.9 it will be a legendary update if Orion has the guts to try something with Calypso while in Hyril'ar since that's sacrilege, but maybe he should take more care since its his real body not his astral body...nah

I actually liked it, but I also really like The Stanley Parable, which is the inspiration for this part of the Update. So for me it was really funny, but I can understand why it might be tedious for some.



Oh, I am really looking forward to this! Not really because of Calypso, but mainly because I want to learn more about that world, since it does not seem to be linked to Eternum.

Wait what are they referring to here?? what doomed timeline illusion?

The whole nightmare sequence of the office made from that goblin's magic in last update

 

[Zegion101]

I think 0.6 was my fav update. Although 0.5 and 0.8 got the best ending points for me

 

[flyingtop]

Really enjoyed this game can anyone recommend something similar. But not the ones with those wierd "realistic" 3d models something similar to this or agent17 or my real desire. Harem is optional would really love some normal romance stuff with a dark twist

So how far are we into the game?

The dev is working on the 0.9 update right? Can I assume this is the second to last update then or shouldn't I trust the version numbering like 90% of the time xD

Also while 1.0 is the final update, it's not 0.9 then 1.0. Proper versioning would be 0.9 to 0.10 to 0.11 etc. until the final update which is 1.0.

so if everything goes according to plan, v.0.13 would be v1.0?

Thanks for answering so we aren't that far yet as I "hoped" to be xD.

Haven't played any version of Eternum since I enjoy more playing only completed projects for several reasons. However I played Once in a Lifetime and I really enjoyed my time with it so Etermun I guess will be a no brainer.

Now that you showed me the image I have a slight deja vu xD

I guess I have asked this already at one point in the recent years and got the same response.

I would assume so for now. Time will tell.

Uhh, yes.

 

[Zegion101]

I wasn't completely sold until the first visit to Alex's house, then I was like yep, I understand the hype

 

[Mutation8888]

Damn, people. I literally got hooked at the intro of the game.

Is that me ? Am I that easy to please ?

Just different aspects of the story hooked you faster. I got more into the story of the MC trying to obtain the Eternum chip, then getting into Eternum. The train ride, chatting with Chang, going to school, all that stuff was just intro and did not really catch my attention as I was trying to see past that surface. I guess I am more of an entree kind of guy rather than an appetizer type of guy.

I saw Annie in the first scene and knew I had to continue. I had heard Eternum was a GOAT AVN, so I was already interested in seeing it through, but Annie is what hooked me straight away.

Yeah, Annie has the cuteness overload factor.

I'm a sucker for the girl next door/childhood friend trope, so I fell in love at once. Then I met Luna and fell again.

I clearly have a problem with my balance, I keep falling in this game.
