i'm pretty sure the steam release will be a success for the most part because about half if not more of oceans patreon and SS support will buy summers gone on steam so thats a plus for sure. other than that i don't know he has quite the following on f95zone so i imagine those here will buy the steam version in my opinion.
I saw that and downloaded it, but haven't played it yet - too many things going on WiaB wise that day to really enjoy pranks as intended. Please do if Ocean does it unironically. If we have a droll, disinterested Nika saying it while Nadia uses a devil card on him in tabletop land, I would find that absolutely hilarious.
I mean, I can only go by my own actions, I'm planning on buying it, and I'll probably buy it on steam, epic and gog, simply because I've gotten a lot of enjoyment out of it, and I can increase the chance of further development. I'm not willing/able to justify being a patron, so this is how I can have some small gratitude for years of pirating it.
I kinda agree with what you all are singing if he didn't overdue it with the metajokes about no lewd and dick not working last update. Made the MC look like a complete loser and Bella an idiot for putting up with it.
Dick not working? Fine, you have working hands and lips, even if you can't get into you it right now mentally, do it for your female companion, I am sure that karma will return, instead he unnecessarily wrote himself into a corner he knew he can't get out of because of the Steam release and it makes zero sense narratively why he pushed so much of the, 'hahaha, SG has no sexy times, get it player?' meta humor.
Not mentioning how in bad taste it comes across, it would be fine 'wink, wink' joke if it would be a year old game, but some mfers have been waiting for anything to happen for 5 years now, they don't need the sword twisted in the wound, it fucking rusted in there already.
Amber is like walking Viagra. You let four grandpa's with erectile dysfunction sit around a table. When Amber would walk by, the table would begin to levitate...
Have you even played SG?
First of all, his dick works fine, but unfortunately it only works in one direction - Summer's dead pussy.
Second, Nami, roleplaying Summer, was able to make him get a boner.
Third, when the MC allowed Nami to move her buttocks on his dick in jacuzzi, he suddenly discovered that his dick was alive again. So, it's not just dead Summer's pussy that's actually working.
Four, the game doesn't yet say what exactly caused his panic attacks, but now they happen quite regularly. The more body contact he has, the stronger the blow. He lost in the college hallway surrounded by a bunch of girls, he had a panic attack. A threesome kiss with Vic and Mila - he had to retreat to the bathroom and experience a panic attack. He was having fun at a book club - panic attack. Do you really think getting more intimate with Bella is a good idea until he deals with this shit?
The game kinda hints that this idea is not very good. And it seems obvious that until he and Amber visit the damn cabin, he will not make any progress in solving this problem.
All not in the game anymore.

He got panic attacks because he was forcing social interactions with multiple people at once, especially strangers. Is there any instance where it happens with Bella? Because if not, all you just said is your head canon, because there are zero hints his attacks are related to intimacy with the people he loves, sex, or causing his dick problems.
Dem pierced nipples too OP.
" This game is about healing, hope, and love. A young man plagued by depression and isolation. "

I do hope we'll find Noji in WiaB to understand her connection - in SG we only know she worked with a 'Scarlet' at the hospital. This suggests that she's someone different to the member of Miru's old WiaB ninja clan who showed up - Scarlet was working at the hospital in WiaB, seemingly sourcing stuff on the side for Joe perhaps? So if Noji worked for Scarlet back then, Noji probably isn't squeaky clean.
So that implies Nika knew of Scarlet, if not actually knowing Scarlet - more fuel that Noji is not keeping Nika away from the Zane's but keeping Nika stable/safe from himself.
His dick problems are mentioned indirectly. He doesn't leave any messes around. Coupled with the removed scenes, which are no real loss, we do have a picture of someone who has a mental block regarding sex and intimacy, and is self aware of that block. Someone who has a block probably can't even think to pleasure someone else - the reason they can't get it up is because their mind is shunning that level of intimacy, not because they are just having a physical issue. Nika's brain is being blueballed by his past also.
Just the jacuzzi scene, now he stops Nami before she starts grinding his cock. But he admits he'll probably get a boner if she continues. He's just afraid to find out.
On Nami's route when they returned from Vic. if the MC admits that he has feelings for her and kisses her:
So, he has panic attacks related to intimacy with the people he loves. This is not my head canon, this is the author's character.
I agree that Bella is a special case and he feels much more comfortable with her than with the others. At least I don't remember him panicking while with her. But nevertheless, his panic attacks still occur and he is afraid that he might screw up in front of Bella because of this. He talks about this directly in Chapter 3.
He is scaried to go further with her because he understands that not everything is okay with him yet and a breakdown could happen at any moment. He's just afraid.
I guess it's not that strange. Nami was already slightly warmed up by Vanessa and decided to continue what she started at the lake.
I actually think that the effect of Nami's path with the changed lake scene and the removed jacuzzi scene will actually make her a stronger more believable character. Up until what we've just found out, she is overtly sexual in her flirting towards Nika. I get that she is an awkward virgin talking tough to try and hide her insecurity, I get that the wiggly is her not being comfortable with her body now she's a weird 7, I get all of that. But the way she reacts to the kiss and to actual intimacyfeels far too reversed from that, especially if you take her for a walk after the movies at Vics.I guess it's not that strange. Nami was already slightly warmed up by Vanessa and decided to continue what she started at the lake.
While there is no explanation for their dialogue about what happened between them in the past, we can assume anything. Perhaps something in the past justifies her behavior.
To me the Jacuzzi was perfect. You got to learn about vanessa how she was very perceptive. Listen to the things she said to Nami about Niko which you can tell she has noticed the attachment to them is more. You learn alot about the family and the mother(believe the mother is katerina). You get ammo on Mario(butt plug).I guess it's not that strange. Nami was already slightly warmed up by Vanessa and decided to continue what she started at the lake.
Before the remake, MC already knew about the Mario's little toys if MC joined Bella during the night heist. But the fact that Vanessa forced Mario to wear it is of course a juicy detail.
To be honest, I didn’t like Nika himself in the scene on the lake. It looked more like he was putting pressure on Nami using a ghosting card (which is what Nami fears most).
I thought that about Kat as well, the competitve nature of the mom seems very in line with Kat. But I'm keeping my mind open that Ocean will throw in a few unknown characters and leave some of the WiaB cast to fade aways most likely. But Kat would explain a few things.
More ideas that Vanessa is evil, and looking to leverage everyone with some form of embarrassing secret?Before the remake, MC already knew about the Mario's little toys if MC joined Bella during the night heist. But the fact that Vanessa forced Mario to wear it is of course a juicy detail.
And yeah, Vanessa seems happy if the MC lets Nami sit on his lap. I wouldn't be surprised if she has a hidden camera somewhere nearby
...I totally thought that was her goal, to see how much she could get them to confess, just for her own insurance policies. A camera makes a great idea, pity she didn't catch them doing an ass job...
