Are you really so stupid, or do you trying even harder to not understand?

Alone this part of you post is just screaming about your cluelessness :

Serious?
Think about this a 2nd time.
Only a tiny bit of a little bit of commonsense is required to get the answer, even you should be able to do this.
GO ON! I believe in you ...

Ocean is a business man, that means his business has to generate money. If he does not, his company can be closed from the tax authoritys.

What do you think is happening when the build is out on patreon before steam?

The game get's leaked in no time and, despise the most bigmouths here, the majority of it will not sell it on steam. The first week on steam is the most important, doing otherwise is just financial suicide. Or even worst Ocean get trouble from steam because of the post steam release on a 3th party site.

Sorry, this is the closest one to an official source you can get, You have even to use your steam account to log in this site. And they are even optimistic, on reddit are devs that have builds pending even longer than Ocean do.



/e

I don't know why I'm even bother to waste so much time for you.

The only thing you do in this thread is spilling bullshit and spread bad mood or asking really stupid questions that need normally 1/8 of a braincell to answer.

i'm still going with the fact that summers gone has gone from AVN to VN i bet we will see zero naked asses and boobs in the coming release of season 1 i can hardly wait to see a so called AVN with women fully dressed for 5 chapters and about 10k renders but you know it is what it is it's no more and no less.

Was it ever said why they decided to remove all the more adult scenes? Was it just to get the game on steam more easily? Seems kinda weird to neuter the game of what little adult content it already had just to knock a few days off the review when there's games like Treasures of Nadia on steam that do just fine, among many others.

Thanks for the effort, so i didnt need to do it myself... boy, serious, something is completly wrong with you that you are investigating that troll so much But well i wasted my time on him too Very much appreaciated... so now i am certain that he will earn a nice cosy spot at my ignore list... holy cow... whats wrong with people like him? Kinda on a mission to spread only nonsense and unreasonable accusations. And he is doing that for years... WOW talking about commitment... thats even kind of admireable in a total strange way oO

It's been said many times, even in the last couple of pages. It's not to shave a couple of days of fthe review, it's to avoid getting 18+ which means it won't be available in Germany where Ocean lives. Season 2 will be 18+, but and adult tag limits the audience. Ocean can build a fan base on steam getting onto curator lists for more general games. He can also sell it on the Epic games store.

Then there's the music he paid for, that the license holders changed the license when it was up for review. Ocean decided to keep the music and cut the limp dick instead.

Once he's got a series, it's harder to slow the train down, which means a better result for everyone. Taking out a few itsy bitsy dick pics of a guy who can't get it up anyway? I'm okay with that.

Am I the only one who thinks that Ayua has aged 30 years? The old version of Ayua looked like a young girl, but this one looks older than Amber.

Yeah steam is kinda... yucky... with adult or better said, lewd content, and i guess (*edit* not guess, he wants to) ocean wants to try to publish the game on steam in germany too... and oh boy believe me if iam saying, that is not an easy task. Will most likely fail. So yeah he needed to change a lot for the steam release i think, he said that there is still some nudity, tiddies are not really a problem, but showing the dick of the mc is. So he scratched that. Just for info, you will not find any game from F95 that is published on steam in germany... not a single one. But ocean tries. Would surpise me if he will suceed here.

*edit* oh... yeah... steam reviewing the game... didnt thaught about that, maybe ocean even did not thaught about it himself... getting it reviewed for a release in germany, fuck... that will take a while. Thats nothing you can read at their reviewing rules or so... but yeah, getting approval to release it to germany too? Well... thats a high roll gamble with little to none chance of winning. that WILL take weeks to get done. Late april is now more likely cause of this... otherwise it would already be up i guess.

 

[AlexFXR]

Do wut? The game will be the same for both Steam and SS/Patreon for Season 1.

Season 2, won't even be available on Steam/GOG to the countries where adult content is prohibited.

So, it boils down to this, do you want the game from Steam, GOG, or Patreon/SS? You only need 1 of those.

If Ocean doesn't help these people and doesn't give them an easy way to buy their game, then why would they care? It will be easier for them to find any pirated site and download the game there.

 

[JJ1960]

NOOOOOO-

 

[Mortarion]

Thanks for the effort, so i didnt need to do it myself... boy, serious, something is completly wrong with you that you are investigating that troll so much

Not much effort needed, just a few seconds, but seeing that shit the search has reviled is a challenge for the blood pressure ....

Just for info, you will not find any game from F95 that is published on steam in germany... not a single one. But ocean tries. Would surpise me if he will suceed here.

And that's the reason why Ocean trys his best to avoid the 18+ on steam - like BobTheDuck has explained.

If the game gets a 18+ rating even Ocean would be able, as the Dev, to have access to his own game...

steam is not yucky on lewd games let alone with incest, anal or whatever i have plenty of adult games on steam and have seen many game developers on patreon put their games out on steam and they are just fine the issue is trying to sell in germany when he will make more money by selling in america but thats on him so god speed. also the steam version will have zero nude from what i know so i don't know . the issue but tagging it as adult with no nude and tagging it as adult and placing it with 13+ or 16+ is kinda weird. when we all know 13+ and 16+ is far from adult and saying the word fuck is not a adult only thing by todays standereds. i mean summers gone is far from being labled as a adult visual novel by any means anymore it's just a visual novel now.

I don't see any adult tag on SG on steam, I might be blind though. The whole point is to avoid the adult tag, to ensure a wider potential audience, hook them in.

He's planning on steam worldwide. Ocean doesn't want it to be resticted. Germany and the US both get it is the intention. He won't sell more by being 18+ in the US vs everywhere at pegi 16.

This is about exposing the game to as many people as possible so he's less dependent on platforms. That's why he'll release on Epic and Gog as well.

 

[AlexFXR]

Yeah I'm afraid that's what SG turned into; a VN instead of an AVN. I'm quite sad about this tbh. But if there's a market for it, what can we do.

Thankfully this isn't the only AVN out there, just sad to see one of the best (if not THE best) artists turn prudish.

This will never happen, because Ocean is not a fool and understands that if he does this, the game will die.

There are 2 things that can make a game popular: an interesting plot and sex scenes. Ocean made a big deal when he wrote that there would be no sex scenes in season 1. People thought that since there would be no sex, they would give us an interesting plot. But they were given nothing for all these years and they became very angry.

Let's move on to logic, Ocean knows how to make beautiful pictures, but his plot is bad. Therefore, the version with an interesting plot is eliminated. The only option left is with sex scenes; it turns out that this is the only way he can interest the audience.

 

[zack1419]

i wanna know when this adult visual novel will have the "adult" part. if i wanted to play a normal VN there a plethora of other VNs out there. i dont understand the hype you guys have for SG as far i have seen this AVN is mediocre but maybe thats because this is a mediocre vanilla VN.

I get the play, it makes sense. But has he mentioned how he plans to distribute Season 2? Because GOG, Epic, Steam etc won't be an option. Patreon keeps cracking down on adult content and I have a feeling SS will soon follow. I reckon in a couple of years, only the most sanitized adult content will be allowed on those platforms. Sooner or later devs will need to find an alternative that isn't pushed around by payment processors like PayPal.

It's a shame that you're not responsible for reviewing SG on Steam. If it were you, we would be downloading the distribution right now. And I don’t give a fuck what rating you would give to it, be it even an educational material for pre-schoolers.

Unfortunately, it seems that others are not as open-minded as you are and are probably a little confused by the violence, drug use, strong language, emotional abuse, nudity and anything else these weirdos might consider adult content features in the game.

It's going to be challenging to work out how to do season 2. But he'll be doing WiaB before season 2, so he'll have worked out how to navigate steam culture by then. I noticed that on the Epic store he mentions a dedicated SG website coming soon - he might be prepping for having his own storefront.
