Game keeps getting better and better with each update. I didn't expect the ending of 0.7 to be like that and I'm looking forward to see how does it turn out in 0.8

This is a fully free game, and it hasn't been updated in only 6 months and it's at 90% progress. You don't know enough to judge so early, 0.7 could be 2x bigger than previous versions or Caribdis might've had a really busy time in his personal life so it slowed down the release. We don't have enough information so please learn to be patient.
I agree with you, also apart from the world that is in my opinion as interesting as some of the top movies and manga, the relationships and characters are very interesting, and feel like they have a soul and the music amplifies the immersion.
That's why so many people finish this game with an inpatient feeling of wanting more because the world is so captivating and the characters feel real so it's easy to get attached to them or identify with some of the characters.
I wish for this world to become franchised and for the game to get a remake in the form of a movie or series, although it will be hard to find women as attractive as in Eternum lmao. The game has the potential to become mainstream and since it's good, recommending YouTubers with solid following to play it would be enough to make it even more popular than it is currently.
But it's all up to what Caribdis wants, whatever he does I'm happy with what he chooses.
I wrote a comment before here but now I just finished the game, so I can judge the game fully now.
I judge fiction rather harshly, but this is on top of my list of fiction I like the most, it has a good well put together story that makes the player experience an abundance of emotions, it also amazes me how you managed to pull off mystery, thriller, action, comedy, drama well together in a single game. This is a harem game, and harem fiction tends to have a skewed view of sex and relationships just like in porn (which i hate), but this game has a quite realistic view. From my old review when I finished 0.3 I take back the bad points I mentioned because they're fixed by 0.6, I don't have anything I didn't like about the game now. The only thing I would want the game to have is more male interactions for example with chang talking about life and girls, or even brotherly interactions with random male characters since we men tend to get along well with each other even if we met 4 minutes earlier.
Thanks for your work caribdis, as much as I want to play the next version right now I will patiently wait for the updates. I'm broke right now but when I get my money up I'll make sure to buy you a beer or two one day through patreon. Take care bro I'll come back here after 0.7 release.
Yes, I played it a bit time after the edit I made, and honestly, all the bad points I mentioned are fixed and you are right. Maybe if there was a different build-up where there would be a bit more emphasis on a character noticing another character's qualities in a conversation or after observing an action they do like it was for Alex. But also maybe the fault is on my side and I haven't noticed the things other players did. Overall when going through the game it feels better and better, I appreciate your work.
I only just started v0.3, but I want to share my opinion on this game, although keep in mind i'm only at v0.3 so I don't know about the story after, also english is not my first language so i apologise if some of my sentences come out messy or hard to understand.
I gotta admit I came here like a total gremlin just to nut and go. I skipped a majority of dialogues to head straight to sex scenes and bust a nut, but through speedrunning the dialogues I actually noticed it's not bad and I realized that it might be a good idea to give the game a second shot. So I started again from the beginning and I got hooked in the story. I don't even care about nutting, I play the game and enjoy the story, and sex scenes too of course but without them I'd still be hooked on the game.
What I like the most about the game:
Characters have depth and are interesting. They have their unique traits, hobbies, problems and interests. The story has a mix of comedy, more serious drama, romance, and it has a bit of thriller and horror. That mix surprisingly came out well and makes it so you experience a vast range of emotions when progressing through the story. The most important part is that the story is not empty, it can leave you with some thoughts. For example one time mc was careful about diving into a virtual reality possibly making you addicted, but he appreciated that he had things to do on the weekend in real life and in that moment it made me think that honestly it's true that if you have stuff to do in real life and you enjoy it you aren't really gonna fall prey to escapism. Also the talk mc had with the blue haired girl when he asked her if she's an npc, which she replied that if he can't notice a difference between her being real or not then does it really matter, if something looks and feels real but isn't real doesn't it still make it real? (i repeated "real" a lot in that sentence lmao) Things like these make the game feel worthy of your time and serve as a conversation between the developer and the player where developer shares his thoughts. I'm telling you even current marvel movies lack that aspect so I really appreciate it if a story has it.
What I don't like about the game:
I know romance and sex in this game serve as a fantasy for men, but I don't really like how relationships with some girls progress. Mc doesn't do anything or possess any traits that make him attractive other than his looks and big dick and it makes some women lust for him and have sex with him in the span of short amount of time after first seeing him which doesn't seem acceptably realistic to me. I liked how it went with alex, at first she was cold but mc gradually started to gain her trust and through his action he showed her his good manly traits and kindness which made her attracted to him. I don't like how it went with Nancy, she went to his room saw his big cock and started to fantasize about her doing it with the mc and the only too simple argument for that is that she hasn't had a man for a long time. It feels as exaggerated as it is in porn. Also I don't like how mc is attracted to these women without any depth, he only likes them for their bodies and sex, this is what i feel about the mc.
In summary
I think this is a good game, I enjoy it a lot and the futuristic virtual reality world is so compelling to me. You have a huge potential, I'm looking forward to the finishing of this game and your next creations. If you keep learning more about how to make better stories, psychology (helps with creating desires, social interactions, behavior etc. of characters) and also if you look for inspiration and gain many life experiences which you can put into your creative work, you will be able to create masterpiece stories. But... this is just my opinion so keep it with a grain of salt. I appreciate your work and wish you the best in your future, never give up on what you want to do and create but take care of your health, relationships and overall well being first so you can keep on creating quality things like this game.
Also do you have any socials? I want to keep track of your work, so when I give you a follow or subscribe to you on social media now, then in a few years if you create something amazing I'll see it.
[edit]: Just finished v0.3 and the rome arc with nancy explained more why she is attracted to the mc and it doesn't feel exaggerated anymore.
