What are your theories about that reading book club, bcs that was hella sketchy: Najiko is poor and know that many famous and infuenced people. Kinda sus.
Other than the group nude oil wrestling match Coach Hill sets up in the physical ed class, no.there is some spicy scene like the foursome in ch4 in this one? if there is only bella I skip
Is Nika hard?We are waiting for the release... What will the novel be called? : Is Nika gone?
"There is no worse blind man than the one who doesn’t want to see."Like, I understand some of the criticism I've seen here. There are moments throughout the game where you're questioning the MC. But these are always explained within the story, often in following scenes and/or sequences. He's pushing himself to the extremes, resulting in increasingly severe panic attacks because he hasn't adequately coped with his own depression(not too uncommon in real life). I've also seen many people critique the sexual nature of some scenes, and I actually agree to an extent. Sometimes, an LI is out of place to strip and/or act suggestively. @Oceanlab can work on executing those scenes/moments better so that they feel more natural to the player.
Full version will be released in DecemberHow long does it usually take for the FULL version to come after the BETA one? Wondering if I should wait for it or just download this one.
Just saw this.Yeah... the constant complaining is getting rather annoying. If the update cycle's not something you can cope with, or the rework & changes to the story aren't things you can live with... then why not leave? These grand announcements of how this user won't play the game because of X, and that user hates it because of Y... they're getting quite old. If these things bother you so much, why not leave and scratch Summer's Gone off of your list? Why stay to announce to the world that you decided not to pirate this game? Like omg! Whatever will Oceans do about a random F95 user who decided that they're no longer going to pirate his game??
I honestly get the frustration; some of it is definitely warranted... but some of you need to relax. Find another game to play... or better yet, do something rather than stalking these pages waiting for the right moment to meme about how your grandkids may finally experience the end of this game. Since I'm probably the only girl here right now, I'll say it. It's kind of sad that for some of you, your only comments are about how Oceans is a bad developer, how the development cycle upsets you, or some other flaw of this game. My goodness, find something else to do because seeing so many users add nothing more to the conversation than ripping on the game... gets proper annoying. Often enough, I saw people voicing their praise for the game, saying how much they love this and can't wait for that, and some of you guys will show up(out of nowhere) and go out of your way to kill their joy for the game. It's literally crazy how some of you will go out of your way to do this kind of stuff. Hundreds of games on this site, and you choose to spend your time annoying people in SG's thread. That's... kind of sad
Some of you will hate me for this(if you don't already), but I'll say it anyway. Some of these critique/review posts seem disingenuous... almost as if some people came here just to complain. The last few pages have been 70% made up of people complaining that they'll never see the end of this game and the fact that Oceans will rework this game to death. If you truly believe that, truly believe that Oceans will never improve and genuinely believe that Ocean's pace will stay the same forever... leave. If you think honestly that Oceans is out to rework this game every single season... leave. Save yourselves the heartache. This thread can do without all of the extra negativityღ
Like I can't stress enough how dumb this all isღ
Still at it huh?Why? In a few months the beta will be reworked again lol.
Next year maybe.
End of the year* ^^
I'll post this when Beta will be released somewhere in oNvember or December honey.
So,I still have hope that it will get delayed again. Ocean i trust in you. xD
MC and Nami both Zane's bastardsWhat are your theories about that reading book club, bcs that was hella sketchy: Najiko is poor and know that many famous and infuenced people. Kinda sus.
Most probably Bella's sisterWho's the mysterious girl at the end?
I agree with everything you wrote here. As a writer, I noticed many tonal changes since this rework began. This game has many flaws. Creatively, the overall tone of the game resonated more with me pre-rework. The emotions were more raw, and the scenes struck you more deeply than they do now. Yes, I do notice the constant sexualization of characters in scenes that just don't fit. When Nojiko spoke to MC on the porch in the reworked version of Chapter 1, that scene was needlessly sexualized. It just felt... off, especially since Nojiko is supposed to be a parental figure to the MC(like an actual, realistic parental figure, not the AVN version of a parental figure). The audience doesn't need an underwear shot or a closeup of a character's cleavage every time to remind them that they're playing an adult game. That's one thing that I'll always disagree with. I understand that this is an adult game that will feature a lot of lewd content in the future, but, for goodness' sake, make it feel natural. Keep these actions consistent with the character and the story. As a writer, your goal should be to ensure that your scenes feel and sound natural. Let the actions of your characters occur naturally in the story. I'm not blind to any of these flaws. I'm just waiting until the entire rework's done before I leave an entirely objective review of this season."There is no worse blind man than the one who doesn’t want to see."
I have no issue with your other points. You are right. And I personally have never criticized Ocean for his dev cycle, coding, artistic or animation skills.
That said his creative choices are seriously questionable. And you cannot tell me you don't notice how he's been shooting himself in the foot consistently every time he goes back and reworks scenes and dialogues. You cannot tell me you haven't noticed the monumental drop in quality of the game. Take the damn Nami scenes for example. Specifically the post argument when Nojiko finally tells her about Nick and the bathroom scene. Two perfect examples of the incredible highs and massive lows the game currently offers:
- In one you have a deeply emotional and beautiful scene where her nudity seems to make sense. She is staring out the window clearly hurt when the MC walks in and she takes off her clothes in an attempt to make herself vulnerable and exposed while forcing the MC to confront (and hold) her in that state. It's subtle, emotional and the dialogue is strong which makes it memorable.
- Then you have that awful, vomit enducing bathroom scene, which was changed for the worse from the original one, if you choose to stay. That abomination that seems to have been added as nothing but an excuse to "lewdify" the game at the expense of the characters and story. Same thing he did with the new Nojiko porch scene that seems ham-fisted in so he could get us a few cleavage shots of Nojiko, once again at the expense of the characters and story. Need I go further? Can you honestly tell me you like the new Bella fight scene over her sisters picture in the bedroom? Compared to the emotional height the old one reached?
Need I remind you that Ocean could have simply updated the renders and kept the script and scenes as they were? He made a conscious effort to change them. Now we all have our own preferences and taste but if you approach this from an unbiased and imparcial angle, can you seriously tell me that you think the game is stronger now than it was then? I know I'm not the one taking crazy pills. There have been hundreds of people, in this very thread, pointing out the massive decline of the game for years now in terms of story and dialogue especially. You can't dismiss us all as haters...
Oh you newbie, dare accepted.I dare anyone to find another game that has 1300+ posts... the very def95inition of jealousy. keep up the excellent work Oceans and let the haters hate
Yup - feigned tragedy...Thank u god sir!
LOL! Exactly my thoughts! The protagonist is simply an immature schoolboy wannabe nihilist against the system. This is quite realistic, since I saw a lot of kids who wanted to be DIFFERENT. But that's precisely why it is impossible for me to take all this feigned tragedy seriously.
Fair enough. I for one am done with shitting on Ocean. I don't hate the guy and I certainly don't hate the game. It's just frustrating to see what it was and what it has become.I'm not saying that you guys shouldn't post your opinions. I'm saying that when you post them, you don't have to be rude about itღ
Your antivirus is full of shit bud...the only thing the 7z contains is one RPY and one RPYC file...and those file types cannot contain a virus, period, as one is simply a text code file and the other a compiled version of that text. Just an FYILewdpatch - google says: View attachment 3036220
