VN Ren'Py Abandoned Summer's Gone [S1 Steam + DLC] [Oceanlab]

[RNasc4444]

Am I the only one who thinks Sasha is overhyped? We have almost no information about her. Many people feel a sense of loyalty to her because she's Ocean's favorite girl. Will Ocean show favoritism to Sasha in the upcoming chapters? Is such a thing possible?

People like what they like. You can't always find logic or reason in it. Take my avatar for example. She is my favorite character in a game where she only shows up for a couple dozen renders. Can't even be considered a side character due to how little screen time she has. That doesn't stop me from liking her FAR BETTER than any other character in that game.

As for SG, I've seen enough of Mila, Vic, Zara, Nadia, Vanessa, Nia, Sonya, Amber, Miriam, Kate, The Teachers and The Cougars to absolutely discard them. But others such as Ayua, Nora, Nancy, Layla, Claire, Robin, Maja and Sasha still remain in my interest list.

Bella fan here. And I agree a little differently. Not too much Bella, but not enough focus on the other characters - the game focuses on Bella and Nami, as if they were the only Main Girls. Although Ocean seemed to say that “everyone is equal and there is no MGs/SGs system.” I would like to see more attention to Zara (really, the most successful girl of the new characters), Nia, Ayua. Game needs some balance.
I don’t know how much attention Victoria received after the remaster, for me she’s not interesting and I cut off her route from the very beginning... Although she continues to appear and appear.
There is an option to make the updates really big in order to pay attention to all the stories, but then hello 5000+ renders/per update and more than a year of waiting... It’s not clear how to find the optimal way out of this situation, but Ocean continues to add more and more new characters, for example, hungry bookwarm milfs in last update, I don’t even know why they are needed.
And definitely, with so many characters, Summer's Gone needs a BIOS with descriptions of all the characters and interactions with them... because by the end of the game I will be very old with dementia and just forget all the decisions I made.

Vic will shine in the second season as I get. As for horny cougars... They are there primarily for the story. By eavesdropping on their conversations, MC gets information about the balance of power in the city's high society, and also learns a lot about the people he thought he knew well. For example, just by chatting with Kelly, he finds out that Nojiko and Amber knew each other long before he began therapy with Amber. So why the hell were they acting out in front of him as if they didn’t know each other?

Might just be a plot hole. By the way, it’s not the only one in the game. I don’t understand why their family is considered poor if Nojiko works as a doctor?

I mentioned it earlier, but I don't think she's as poor as Nika and Nami realise. She has some reason to bring them up without the trappings of wealth and status and hides her salary/inheritance/ability

During the cabin therapy session, Amber puts MC into a trance, role-playing Summer, and allowing MC to release... unreacted emotions. Sex therapy.

Amber is indeed a great therapy manager, but unfortunately she is not a wizard... After Kabin's failure, she informs all the girls that, unfortunately, even she has not been able to "fix" the emo impotent guy... The girls are looking for a new hero...

The author is not going to assume his favorite but we could guess Bella the poster girl.

Yeah, she's definitely giving off "OMG OMG OMG! a big brother!" vibes. She's very playful with Nika and, considering her wicked witch of a sister, she's definitely grabbing onto Nika as a much more fun step-sibling. Especially if he believed in her...

Read John972 at last few pages of this thread, he's arguing all the day about this topic
Nothing is clear about Nojiko at all; she seems so casual and open, but it turns out that she is familiar with half of the city’s high society. Ocean continues to throw fragments of the big picture without explaining what they mean and giggling.

Maybe I'm missing something here, but Ocean does say who his favorites are.

Ah yes some less developed character But took that as a grain of salt.

He does, and it's actually not Bella, even if she's the absolute poster child for the game.

Is it possible to talk about a plot hole when we do not know the whole story?

Yep, welcome to the WMV

Sorry, I only read the thread occasionally.
This may be the case. The house they live in is old, but it cannot be called a place for beggars. A large house that can easily accommodate several more people. Not some kind of drywall hut or trailer, which is how the poorest categories of the population live. Bella mentioned that the area they live in is poor, but in her understanding of poverty...Probably people who have less than $1M per year. Well, Bella also loves to throw at the fan to troll people.

What we can definitely say about Ocean is that he loves blondes.

We can, or we try to explain them with a dozen theories. We should advise Dalli_x to try SG.

[Bombmaster]

People taking Bella shit talking / out of touch view as gospel.

That take just make her less interesting and entitled.

And don’t forget that she pays for the education of both of her “tenants” at the same college where Sasha Petrova (ZPR), Ayua Zane (ZPR) and Bella von Halen are too.

This explains a lot if this is the US with their college tuition prices.

Reaction limit, I owe you one.

 

[yossa999]

No, Ocean said it's an imaginary world, though it highly resembles to the US and Europe. But I think that tution in that college is expensive, since the children from rich families study there.

I mean it's not common practice for a psychiatrist to hold a patient in their arms, poking their eyes out with their nipple piercings so I'm gonna go for the justification of "she didn't get any for a long time and is just horny as shit".

I dunno if Ocean can do "horny as shit", given his vow of celibacy for the time being. But all joking aside, yes having Amber be a horny MILF is probably the best way to do it, i mean given that she still has pierced nipples probably tells you more about her than anything you can find in a therapy session. The problem is how is that gonna work in relation to Bella? She is gonna be so horny she just fucks a guy that her daughter likes?
Again all of this goes back to delaying all the sex stuff for so long, it allowed MC to build up too much of a platonic and romantic relationship with too many characters, to the point where MC having sex with anyone else than the first romantic interest makes it impossible.
That small window of moment where you hook up with someone for the first time, where you still ease into a relationship in many of these games where you get to fool around with others while you are still going on a date with someone else is long gone. The game boasts one of the largest casts of female romantic interests, both main and side ones and i am suppose to think that the MC is gonna turn into a sex machine any minute now and start fucking 25+ girls left and right after he already got to know them so well and built whatever relationship he did? Sorry but it just aint working, this could have worked if this was a fresh game as i said, the MC just joined a college and went to parties where he met all these girls for the first time, but i have spent so much time with Bella, Mila, Nami, etc... that i feel like I am already at the stage where we are picking the wedding dresses for all 3.
But whatever, at least there is Where it all Began where i can watch yassified Great Khali bang the hot Asian chick, while we watch him have a back and forth with Bel.. i mean Katie. Lets all make a bet on how long it will take in that game before the MC gets to fuck anyone else but his girlfriend, i am sure Summers Gone hasn't robbed off on him the wrong way at all...
