this is the tattoo on Nojiko's arm. (see foto)
can anyone tell me what it means?

A rare misstake in pic sg1 I think it must be shoot
the pic sg2 shows, then a pause and shows again...
sg3 text should be your brother
sg4 I imagine she doesn't want to kill sonya so let her off sounds better....
sg5 Yes or Yeah
sg6 still in the middle of the game, a save game.
sg7 no need for double brackets
sg8 was stung by a bee
sg9 no need for the *

Great game, can't wait or season 2

These are the Chinese letters that stands for Zhi Fuping,
which literally means calm down in English.

Doesn't even come close to what the symbols (words) are in the image (maybe just the second one) especially the last one

It comes out to " Zhi Fuping " but that's with google translate lol. Only someone who speaks this will know the truth.

Rare? grammar typos/mistakes are very common. Also, the way the "A" looks in the text font the game is using looks like the "D" from Being a DIK



I don't know... a different font would have been better, me thinks and my opinion.

When the full chapter 5 comes out, will there be additional scenes in the whole game or only the rework of chapter 2? From what I've gathered from the dev logs, the rework is going to contain some additional and modified scenes, that will be quite important, so it would be pretty weird if that doesn't have an effect on everything that comes after chapter 2, right?

Is nojiko MC's real mother or the woman that adopted him?

Adopted.
real parents died in a car crash

Bella constantly teases Mika because he's a virgin. However, I think the reason why she makes so much virgin talk is that she is actually a virgin herself. So it would be contradictory for a girl who was already so annoying and could not stand people to have sex.

This is from 2021, and Ocean changed a lot. Hell, he remakes shit a lot. And Bella not being a virgin makes no sense as she is way too cagey.
I swear in previous versions Nia talked about co-starring with other guys and now there is nothing like that. Now, Mila makes perfect sense having previous relationships.

Most of the work in SG will be done with the reworking of the rest of CH 2.

There will also be some continuity changes/updates, for example:

(from Ocean's Dev Log on Nov 29, 2023):

Before Chapter 3 was released, I completely re-did it because I couldn't render it properly and had to blur the shit out of it bc every character in the background was on the lowest res possible so I could render it.

Still, this scene still features the shitty Mila model.



I'm redoing said scene and I'm almost done with it.



The above is the new Mila model for that scene.

Cheers!!

Actually, Bella not being a virgin makes perfect sense. Her trauma isn't like nikas, where it's connected to the loss of a romantic partner and now he has issues when it comes to sex. Apart from the situation with her sister, Bella is just a normal, extra bitchy, 19 year old girl. She's forward, direct, aggressive, outgoing and is also a street racer. With that type of personality and also no issues like nikas when it comes to sex, it would just be really stupid to make her character a virgin, It's pretty much unbelievable.

I'm kinda 50/50. She doesn't let anyone close. I could accept 1 random hook-up but no more than that given her mental state. She could perfectly be a virgin. Same with Nia now I think? In previous versions she wasn't it, I'm pretty sure but not I'm quite sure she is, or maybe I skipped something.
Like, let me bring another game into discussion like Chasing Sunsets. There is a variable that makes Jaye a virgin or not given how you act but to me, that is so stupid given that Jaye is absolutely obsessed with her step-bro. There should not have been that variable in my opinion.
Either way, I'm only looking for things that make narrative sense. Still, if he can make people happy and there is leeway to do so then do be stupid and do it. Don't trip yourself over pettiness. A lot of writers should know that not all their farts smell like rainbows.

can anyone tell me what it means?

switch google translate to Japanese and one of the possible translations is
(Fu Hei) outside good inside evil..
and Ji
but i am not in anyway Japanese so idk. its just that i saw that the responses were 'in chinese this says...'
but Nojiko is Japanese.... maybe Ocean wants to hint that she is WAY more complex than we thought for the last couple of years?

also Nia it is implied in the writing IS a Virgin...
which would explain why the references to working with guys [that i don't remember ever reading] was removed?

Completely agree that what matters most is for it to make sense from a narrative standpoint. As long as the writing is well done, I'm happy. As for Nia, I'm pretty sure she told nami in the shower that she felt good and liberated when she lost her virginity.

Random comment(s):
Summer's Gone has the most attractive lineup of women I've ever seen in any erotic game, both physically and mostly personality-wise (Some of them haven't had a chance to really grow on me yet).

Additionally, from what I can assess the MC relates to some of the girls through words/ideas (Yes, I do believe some of the LIs' qualities intersect with one another. Ex: I see a lot of similarities between Bella/Nadia/Zara or Mila/Victoria or Nami/Nia or Ayua/Maja or Sasha/Mila):

Bella: Passion/Vitality
Nami: Togetherness/Free-spiritedness
Nia: Loneliness/Acceptance
Zara/Nadia: Competitiveness/Persistence/Comfort
Sasha: Peace/Harmony/Foresight
Victoria/Maja: Vulnerability/Optimism
Mila: Inadequacy/Stability/Self-sufficiency
Vanessa: Transparency/Assertiveness
Ayua: Loyalty/Tact
Sonya: Self-confidence

These are only my impressions so far, especially I had to go back to the beginning to look over conversations/events mainly between the girls with one another, or between the MC and themselves.

i very much disagree with your assessment of Vanessa
she is very intelligent, and a total gold digger who thinks nothing of emasculating her future 'mate' and is extremely manipulative; hardly transparent at all. She is to put it kindly, a Cunt.

i think placing single term labels on the LIs is way too short-sighted at this point. Sasha is determined, stubbornly so, her scar showing the lengths she is willing to go to win at fighting/sparring. not to mention the convo about the white hair dying that if you notice, Several girls do [the insanely hot as yet un-named redhead comes to mind]...

Bella doesn't like people. She has a few close friends and doesn't want anyone else. She also has a strong prejudice and hostility towards men. She has no male friends, the closest one is a gay barber. It is illogical for a girl who interacts so little with people to have random sex outside, fresh out of high school. Also, even in her first limited flirtations with Nika, she behaved strangely, so she is not like a girl who has sex at all. The surprise of her close friends at Bella's kiss with Nika is proof enough. So yes, it is very illogical that Bella, who is a big event even kissing a man, is having random sex around.

that's not what Nia said, she said she was glad she stopped worrying about what everyone (self included) expected of her and started flaunting her body and now earned her 'independence' from it (and yes we learn later that isn't an accurate depiction of events either), and told Nami to just let go of [get rid of] her virginity and that she would be happier [by not having to worry about it anymore]
it's all a buildup and rationalization for her to throw herself at MC or god forbid, Sia...
now at want to pluck my eyes out...

Or Nami's right and Bella's fucking everyone.

the surprise from the Girls Nadia and Ayua isnt the physical contact, its how very quickly it is happening that is throwing off their assessments. Remember Nadia saying it took her 2 YEARS to get Bella to open up to her. in teenager that is literally a lifetime...
and he is kissing her in a few days which in normal teen stuff is normal. in traumatically damaged teens [Bella and MC] not-so-much. Noji and Nami talk about HIS transformation the same way after all.
