Okay! First things first, I'd like to exclaim how amazing the new GUI and environment of Eternum feels. Really, when I think of Once in a Lifetime, the theme and atmosphere center around the coziness of Britain addled in with sparkling architecture design, beautiful ladies and a wonderful story line. Eternum takes those points and upgrades them to the max. The town of Kredon has this classical anime styled setting, but the immersive decor, real-life memorabilia and the creation of the characters hits with with... greater oomph.
Small points that had me smiling like a dolt:
- reference to President Stabby Mike!
- the My Hero Academia-like uniforms.
- the goddamn glorious Dark Souls cameo! Like, seriously, I LOVED your style even more when I saw that.
- the fact that the Ion Server looks like a badass reverb of Blade Runner/Ghost In the Shell.
One thing I especially enjoyed was the comedy between different events, like when that Eternum quiz was about to begin and Mr. Hernandez was going all out, but then some dude told him he just crapped his pants and needed the loo. That was so funny, I nearly fell off my bed with laughter.
And as for the character design in this game, how is it possible that you have me falling for the "side-chicks" (I liked what you did there) better than the actual MAIN HEROINES????!!!!! Don't take this the wrong way, but I seriously love you, man. You're awesome.
I know anime has me addicted like a poor bastard on meth, but these games you make are more valuable to me than all the bloody gems in the ground, mate. As I've said before, I didn't expect much when I made the decision to play these mature visual novels. However, you have changed my perception on life stupendously.
The fact that I'm ranting (quite positively, I might add) about ver. 0.1 instead of the entire GAME as a whole goes to show just how amazing your skills are. I'm looking forward to the future updates, really I am.
In fact, I can't even keep this gem of a game a secret, I need to tell PEOPLE! Just you wait, I'm posting another chapter of my fanfiction soon and the author's note will have your name and game on it.
The public craves constructive, gripping, sexy stories like this one, and here is a creator giving us just that. We need to spread the word.
But all my creepy elation aside, one character I found really attracted to was the Eternum Lady (forgive me, in my excitement I forgot her name). Her resemblance to the Androids from Nier: Automata made me swoon, not gonna lie. As for that Praetorian that shot Axel's lap-dog to Hell (quite literally), will there be repeating scene's of her kind going forward?
Take care and have a swell day/night Caribdis. Thanks for another amazing game.
