did anyone manage to unpack chapter 5? UnRen says it can't find "python.exe" and just exits. I want to fix some non-ignorable bugs

Here is the thing, i would be more than stupid to throw money at him. Two games, four years and no considerable progress whatsoever. His Dev logs are basically always the sam excuses in different wording. You can be as gullible as you like, it's your money afterall, but not everyone throws common sense out of the window like many of the fangirls here or his patreons.
Maybe some of these so-called "fangirls" are actually the adults in the room and have enough intelligence to know the difference between different types of Devs making games on F95.

1. There are a few Devs making a lot of money from their popular game(s) that have the resources and financial security to put out either regular or large updates.

2. There are many Devs (some that have been working on their games for as long as Ocean and some that have long equally update cycles) that don't have financial security, but are still going strong, still have the passion. Ocean is one of these.

3. There are many Devs that give it a good try, give up and their games are abandoned. Sometimes, this leads to broken promises and a bit of milking before the end. This usually happens within one or two years.

4. Then there are the known Milkers.

There are many low-rent thinkers contributing to this thread that just love to accuse Ocean of being a Milker. What an absolute bunch of unmitigated crap!

When Ocean took charge of Summer's Gone all those years ago (yeah, for those that don't know, Ocean gave the game to someone else to produce originally while he worked on WIAB), he put in an explicit warning/disclaimer in the game that there would be no sex scenes for a long while.

Ocean's problems with third party providers being cagey about adult-themed material has meant he's had to shelve sexy-times completely for Season 1 of Summer's Gone. Anyone that thinks he wanted to do that rather being forced into doing that, is thinking with their cock rather than their brain.

I can understand all that, but we are in the same, when this game has explicit scenes what will happen? it will be removed from steam? or the game has become a development without future sexual scenes by steam?

I love the story and what gets to immerse the background of the characters, but if in the end it will become a +13 game, I'll leave it aside.
Season 1 is intended to reach a broad audience.

Meushi gave a great summary one post above yours.

We believe that Season 2 will have more lewd scenes and sex.

My theory - the MC/Amber trip to the cabin where he suffered some major level of trauma will start the process to heal him from the psychological trauma that seriously limits his ability to get excited for other women (he did tell Nami that he can get excited when he thinks about Summer - which of course no other woman wants to hear if he is with her).

If my theory holds, then the MC is going to start to have a sexual response to the various women around him.

This could actually be comical in some ways - like the MC getting a boner in class while giving a presentation, while lying in Amber's lap while they are in a therapy session or imagine him getting major wood while talking with the cougars at the next book club meeting - the possibilities for humor and opening the door for one off sexy time with a few cougars are Endless!!.

Ocean has All kinds of ways to play up the MC once the genie is 'uncorked' ;)

So I see Season 2 (chapters 6 - 10) being far more than rated 13+.

Believe me - it is hard to wait for the sexy time, but I absolutely believe that it will be worth it And that it will fit the story rather than trend towards Pornhub shorts.

I suspect (how I would do it if it was me) that the tags for Summers Gone will change once we start getting sexy time. If a chapter adds HJ and BJ, then I think that those tags will be added once the content includes that.

I also believe that the opening screen (blueball warning) will go away or be modified once sexy time arrives.

If a great story without sexy time is not your thing, I recommend checking back in and looking at tags/reading commentary once CH 6/6.5 is out.

There are plenty of other AVNs on F95 that have good stories and sexy time - I'm enjoying a number of them now.

Cheers!! :coffee:

Well,it seems that Jeff+Nami=canon
Why do you think it's canon? Nami is second most popular LI after Bella and throuple MC+Nami+Bella is possible, so most probably that would be canon. Anyway i hope Ocean is just joking about Jeff and Nami. I dont get it why in some AVN there is always some creep so called "friend" of MC who is lusting over MC's mother/sister/girlfriend. They are always piss me off.

Previous chapters have revealed that the MC believes Nami's behavior in the past contributed to his current mental health (and impotency) problems. She was involved in "the incident".

In this chapter, it sounds like she deliberately and repeatedly came on to him and then cockblocked him in the past. I suspect she also flirted with other guys at high school to make the MC jealous.
Would certainly be quite interesting if they have a lengthy past history of feelings for each other and behaving the way they've behaving from the start of this game. I'm still confused about it all though. It does sometimes feel like how you describe based on what's being said or inferred but then..

Nami says "I didn't see that coming in a million years" at the beginning of the chapter. If by cockblocking him you mean she led him on, he took the bait and pursued her but then she withdrew then I don't think so based on a few dialogue. The MC says in 4.5 that there is a change in perception with her but doesn't add anything like that they are old feelings for her that are resurfacing so idk..still a bit confusing what's really going on.

Damnit. Now we've got to wait who knows how long to see some more progress and get a little bit more info.:cautious:

5k Patreon subs = 5k Patreon suckers. Lets just say that I only pay for kinks I actually like, this doesn't even have sex in it. Hell even Nami's ass job (the best scene of the whole AVN up to now) was removed (hip hip hooray to Sancho for putting it back). So I'd probably be cutting my losses if I was foolish enough to sub.
And yet you are still paying with your time to be here and complain.

Time is a currency. If you don't believe this now, give it a few decades and you will!

BTW - I am on Subscribestar - I'm one of those 'suckers' and I can think of few VNs I'd rather invest in than Summers Gone.

Cheers!! :coffee:

Could be trolling because he knows that's :sick::sick: besides any Dev that would do that dirty to their fans where they make the LI's of their game end up with different guys would get pretty big backlash. I'm talking about making it canon, not if the player doesn't pursue a LI and she ends up with someone else during your specific playthrough, I think that's fine. Like for example I am not pursuing a number of girls in my playthrough I don't care if they end up in a relationship with another guy but making it canon they end up with another guy would be a giant middle finger to the fans of those LI's. We are starting to see some of the LI's from WIAB in SG so guess we'll find out though what the Dev does.

Currently, I have 29 playthroughs (27 from Ch. 1 to the end of Ch. 4.5, and 2 from Ch. 1 to the end of Ch. 5 Beta) with Summer's Gone. Yeah, crystal clear I'm a complete idiot who invests an insane amount of time into this AVN, even though some people think it's worthless garbage. :D
Obviously, my opinion is the exact opposite. (Change my mind, if You can! Good luck with that! :D )
Although I'm not a supporter, but I will buy it as soon as it's available on Steam.

The replaced cinematic of the first chapter: the new one makes a lot more sense in terms of the story, and the choice of music fits it amazingly well.
The adjusted/changed scenes: I can live with them, without any particular problems.

My favorite scenes (Ch. 1 - Ch. 4.5):

Ch. 2:

- Bella's Home when Bella wants You to tell her your story
- Rehab when Vic is panicking, and You offer to face their fears together

Ch. 3:
- Bella's Home when You tell Bella, You understand how she feel
- Shopping with Bella (the changing room scene)
- Gym with Bella (the entire scene)

Ch. 3.5:
- When Bella and You go get burgers (the entire scene)
- Park with Mila (the entire scene)

Ch. 4:
- You're still handcuffed in the girl’s locker room, and Robin call Bella, who comes & frees you. (the entire scene with Bella)
- Before start the boardgame, the conversation with Nadia
- The conversation at the pool with Zara
- You knocking Zara to the ground, then You carry her
- Tennis when You throw the ball at Zara's head.

Ch. 4.5:
- Walk and kiss with Mila / Walk and kiss with Vic
- When You hear a low, familiar rumble outside, and Bella arrives. That Bella cinematic, oh, boy...

PaxHadrian17: Due to the Ch. 5 Beta, I started all over again, and for the first time I played through it with music. You've convinced me, in Summer's Gone there is some great music that's filthy catchy, and hard to get out of your head. :cool:

Later, I will also write some thoughts about Ch. 5!

let me gues, again 0 adult content for a Adult game, 4 years, 5200 patreons , ok
maybe you should have read the dv note on FIRST page:rolleyes:
it clearly says "
This isn't a porn game! This is a story-focused game with adult elements.
If you just want to fap, this is certainly the wrong game for you.

Story build-up does need some time. "

go play another game or watch porn if you are so deperate, personally id rather have a great story, thats whats make the game and other like the delucas etc great, they all have a great story first.

There's little snippets of conversation between the MC and Nami that provide a little context:

Once again, some people still haven't realised that Patreon is including "free subscribers" in their patrons' number now. Ocean doesn't have 5 thousand paying patrons.

Honestly, I've had enough of F95 users claiming that some devs have "too many" patrons. And I've had enough of people talking about Patreon numbers who haven't realised that Patreon have inflated their numbers.

I've seen too many threads poisoned by these "Patreon inflated numbers" arguments lately. Time to give it a rest.

My 2 cents, of course.

You seem quite happy to park on a thread and complain about those who support Ocean with their $ and yet you are happy to take what others pay for, download it and then complain about it.

It's easy to complain and drop a dime on someone, making all-encompassing statements while providing No screenshots or actual details. The devil is in the details - where are they?

I get that you have a bug up your backside about Ocean/Summers Gone or both.

So What!!

If you want to actually discuss Summers Gone - here we are:

What do you like about it?

What do you dislike about it?

Why do you keep coming back to this thread?

I'm happy to engage in a discussion. as are others.

If all someone can do is rant though, then they get put on the ignore list as they have nothing useful to share.


We've heard your complaints.

Did you actually have something specific about Summers Gone to share with us

or

was the subtext of your various posts really: please put me on the ignore list as I have nothing but rants to offer everyone here?

Common sense says I should just put you on my ignore list But, call me crazy, I decided to see if you actually wanted to have a discussion about Summers Gone.

Cheers!! :coffee:

This is where you are wrong. This topic has already been discussed many times. Remember what DPC said? He said he was going to make a big game that would take a long time to develop. He also said that there are a lot of milkers on Patreon, so he is going to make the game without delays and will put all his efforts into developing the game. Who stopped Ocean from doing the same? He could throw all his energy into developing the SG, and when it was ready, he would start making Wiab. But Ocean decided not to invest a lot of effort and is slowly developing both games and getting some money from both. Therefore, he has no financial security. If you work slowly, you get little money, if you work quickly, you get a lot of money... Everything seems fair.

Dude it's story and relationship build-up

However dont ask about how every girl goes naked infront of MC for no reason (+ getting frisky all the time) and seem to have fallen for an edgy teenager with erection problems
