First off, Caribdis, you are EVIL for that 0.7 cliffhanger!
Second, theorycrafting guys! I'm just spitballing here, but, to me, Chop Chop is something far more than he is. Every time he's popped up, I can't help but wonder what his real agenda is. I know he looks like a minor character, but I dunno why, something tells me he's far more important than he appears. He seems to have something pretty important every time you run into him. Any thoughts about this? I...honestly don't have much of an idea. If I had to guess, I'd say he probably has some relevance when it comes to Eternum being, um.....without spoiling anything for those who haven't gotten there yet....not 'just a video game'. Wouldn't be surprised that he knows something is special about MC and is trying to guide him in the right direction to get all the gems, but how that'd all be true, I have zero idea. Assuming that what the MC was told about Eternum was true. What do you think?
Nope. Once in a Lifetime shares the same setting as Eternum, with the latter taking place more than a decade after the events of OIAL. The info about it is posted on the FAQ page on Cari's Discord, with the timeline based on what Judie said about Eternum launching a year from then and Orion's monologue where he said that it's been more than a decade since release.
Also, Orion's monologue at the beginning mentioned "Former President Stabb (Michael Stabb was Stabby Mike's real name as revealed in the OIAL Harem end)," so yeah it's been a while ever since.
