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

[JJ1960]

I was curious about Zara's surroundings.

This is obviously not the kitchen in Nick's home but is it possibly the kitchen in one of the student houses?

With this being a blender image - is this a 'future' type of render - Zara stopping by for breakfast with the MC - or did she crash for the night there and this is impromptu sleepwear?

The other two Zara images look like they come from the morning after the first night the MC, Nami and Noji spend at Nick's place. With this image, I can't tell if the MC is in sleepwear or workout shorts.

I bet Zara has already told the MC that they are going to train after coffee...

S2, CH 1 will include the MC sparring with Ayua. Who will be in that audience - Bella, Sasha, Zara, ?...

I think it will be interesting to see how and when the other women (and potential LIs) react to the MC/Bella relationship and the 'we're not exclusive' news that will get out.

Cheers!!

I think the first picture means that in addition to being the super hotness and super fitness she also knows how to cook.

Confirming that she is, in fact, the perfect woman.

The second picture is Nika glowing with happiness when he was woken up early in the morning for training.

This is the biggest mystery for me. Why not make all the antagonists, or just girls destined for any dark deeds, more uglier? Take Brenda, for example? Well, who will miss her?

So the possible solution would be.......

I think it is much simpler, its a treat and Ocean hasn't ported Nick's house into blender yet so he took what he had available

I understand the point you are making regarding my SG post, but in this case - I felt the need to respond with a different perspective.


We have many visitors who come to this thread, and they are likely to interact very little if at all on the thread, for whatever reason.

I chose to respond far less to the poster of those comments and more to the comments themselves.

I offered a counterpoint to those comments and did so in an adult fashion (regardless of how his subsequent response labeled it).

I have no need to respond to his subsequent posts because my post laid out the points I intended to make re: SG.

There are others who responded along some of the same lines that I did and that also helps to make the point for those visitors who may not be well-versed in SG.

We will always have a certain level of entitlement on F95 - it is the nature of someplace where one can enjoy a creator's work for free, which sometimes has the effect of diminishing the value of the creator's work in some people's eyes or creating a false sense of entitlement.

This was a time where I decided to address the entitlement to sex with LI's, which ignores Ocean's own statements about world-building, when sex with the LI's actually fits the story, his intent to get on Steam and reach a broad audience, etc.

We'll have some posters come back and disagree with the creator's decision on how best to manage his AVN (like when sex with LIs occurs) and question his business decisions, like the work, and timing of that work, to get on Steam.

Providing perspective now that Ocean has deleted his account is up to those of us who both enjoy his creations and choose to take the time to respond (when we feel a response is justified).

I think here we just found ourselves on different sides of - 'is a response justified.'

Cheers!!

Damn reaction limit
I totally understand your point. I'm just afraid that clearing up rumors and BS is a tedious job, and sooner or later you too will end up on Discord (like some well-known users from this thread). And that Discord is meh.
There is nothing more I want to say on this topic.

Man, Zara started growing on me after the ending of CH4.5, she was absolutely adorable after the jacuzzi scene, and I like her more and more with each update.

I wonder if her arc will move smoothly from hostility to neutrality, sympathy, friendship and romance? Or there is some kind of bump on that road lies ahead, as on the Bella's route. I guess telling her that you believe in her is the major keypoint in relationship with her; just as important as on Bella's path to tell her that you and her aren't that different. This seems to be Ocean's favorite trick: one seemingly innocent phrase changes everything.

And these previews just have me running circles in anticipation.

Ocean likes to leave hints everywhere
The clue on Bella 's path was in the old WIAB .
Pay attention to the inscription on the vodka bottle "Bellas Wraith"

Wow, I never paid attention to that. I mean, I remember that bottle from Willi and Leia dinner in Ch6 of old WIAB, but this inscription I didn't notice.

When they finish off the gin they will have to say "Summer's gone."

 

[Lurcher1]

I'm afraid of meeting Mel C. I thought Ocean would at least make the antagonist look disgusting, I don't know, a big ugly pimple on her nose or something.
But when I saw her big sis, holy fillet of fuck! I really like Bella, but if this crazy but damn hot detective asks me a question, how am I supposed to tell her no?

I think we've already met Miss Crazy. The scene where you confront Holgerson and his goons has a woman stood there that looks suspicously like the Cop...

Do you mean this scene? It doesn't really look like the cop's sister.

 

[Lurcher1]

Really? To me, there's a resemblance.

The last scene of chapter 5 made it unmistakably clear who it was, if you paid attention to the dialogue in the game.

One other thing:

Punctuation marks such full stops, commas and line breaks would really make your posts a lot easier to read - and way more less misunderstandable.

No offense!

Is a Bella and Amber path on one run impossible?

Ohhh no... I haven't played in ages, but it seems MC stuck with that ridiculous Goku hair?

Wouldn't you put up with Goku-Schmoku, just to get closer to Bella?
My MC doesn't care about the haircut as long as Bella likes it. Wait, my bad, he doesn't care about the haircut at all.

Is a Bella and Amber path on one run impossible?

The story hasn't progressed enough to find out, but I doubt Amber would do that to Bella and viceversa. Also, I don't know if Ocean has said if you're in Bella's path Amber won't even consider you, I might need someone else to verify if this was officially said or not, cause I ignore it.
