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

I mean, you are playing it your way, are seeing things through your eyes and thinking about things in certain ways with your mind. He gives people a shot and ends up getting kicked in the balls and more.

I would stay away from everyone. Less drama, bullshit and pain that way. Many things to enjoy in life, it doesn't need to revolve around getting with someone, sex, making friends and all that other forced world shit. People are too brainwashed with how things should be and if you don't do those/certain things, you are the weirdo/loser/not normal.

It’s not being brainwashed. We are social animals and as such have social and relational needs. It’s wrong to label people if they do not live up to this standard of course and you can simply do your thing and enjoy your hobbies if you’re into that.
But you shouldn’t rob yourself of the thing that makes life worth living, which is people, even if they come with drama and aren’t perfect. You just gotta find your own people. That’s what Nika is doing, he’s engaging with people even if it’s hard and draining most of the time. Life isn’t supposed to be a smooth road.
At least that’s how I see it, live your life how you want.

First of all, the guy is clearly attractive. His jawline is so sharp it could cut glass. He has an athletic body, don't be fooled by the spaghetti arms at the beginning, we all know it takes you only two sessions at the gym in Wollust to tone up your muscles and abs. He has that dark, "mysterious" aura that young girls are so prone to fall for. And having an attractive appearance, he does not even try to get the attention of girls or somehow please them. What young 18-year-old girl wouldn't be at least curious about such a "unique" dude.

Come on bro, I can understand and agree with your other points to some extent, but this is just not fair.

First of all, the guy is clearly attractive. His jawline is so sharp it could cut glass. He has an athletic body, don't be fooled by the spaghetti arms at the beginning, we all know it takes you only two sessions at the gym in Wollust to tone up your muscles and abs. He has that dark, "mysterious" aura that young girls are so prone to fall for. And having an attractive appearance, he does not even try to get the attention of girls or somehow please them. What young 18-year-old girl wouldn't be at least curious about such a "unique" dude.

Secondly, when the MC makes his first acquaintances with girls, pay attention, no one falls in love with him yet. Bella is forced to hang out with him because of a common project. Mila is simply a friendly person, plus she notices some hidden issues he struggles with and this builds up her interest. Only Vic simply liked him at first sight, and the accident they experienced together created a certain connection between them.

Thirdly, other girls have a "secondary" interest in him. Some of them are curious about this guy who hangs out with Bella all the time. Someone caught him in the bathroom with Robin or heard rumors about it. Someone knows about the fight with Sai. In short, everyone’s interest in MC does not arise out of nowhere just because he is the MC.

And finally, isn't it a common feature of all AVNs that most of the girls we see are LIs, side girls, or at least friends of the MC. Not many people can, like Ocean, populate a game with several dozen female characters and try to give each of them some attention, at least showing them in the background a few times. Of course, most of the girls will be potential LIs or lewdable and will be interested in the MC, since those who do not fall into these categories are not even visible to us

Remember, long-time AVN players have been conditioned to believe that EVERY visible female NPC MUST be sexed by the MC by the end of the game (I was honestly gonna say every "NPC with a pussy," but then I thought through the implications of exactly what that meant). Some people struggle with the concept that not every female needs to be lewdable.

Allied to that, players are generally so against even a hint of "NTR" that male NPCs like poor old Jeff, Trey, and Damien may never get a girlfriend in the SG universe, even if that girlfriend is a minor character than has no interest in the MC (and vice versa).

Having sampled many AVNs on here since 2018, I kinda scratch my head when people talk about "bad writing" in SG. Bad writing compared to what, exactly?

they are trying to draw attention to bad translation but it doesn't matter to me because mine is even worse. but it's a pretty common argument. if someone wants to write something bad but doesn't really have anything he starts talking about english so he can at least criticize something

but as I said it doesn't matter to me

Good for us, Ocean has said several times that he doesn't care what certain people think about what NTR is. A LI will not cheat on MC and no man will steal a LI from MC. This is what he meant by saying that NTR will not be in the game.
But. If you permanently reject a certain LI, she will lose that status and will be able to date whoever she wants. At least that's what I understand from what was said a year or more ago, so perhaps I'm confusing or missing something.

I fucking saw this coming. There was no way to not getting hit by a Dwight meme for speaking up a truthful and objective opinion about the MC's appearance. This thread is full of Dwight haters and Ocean fanbois who just can't accept the Truth. Shame on you, Dark!

Yeah, I chose my words poorly. I didn't mean Ocean won't do his own thing, I meant if conditioned AVN players had their way, no male NPCs would get girlfriends (Common AVN trope: Male NPC already has a girlfriend at the start of the game, who the MC is then obliged to either share with or steal from the male NPC).

Thing that bugs me is the earrings. The subject was bought up at the gym between sasha and nami but was interrupted, Sasha and Nami meet a few times after that and it is not bought up again between the two of them. Expected Sasha to revisit the question during the book club. Let them talk about the earrings they have significants they were Princess Leias.

To be honest, when I first time saw the word "bibi" I thought of Netanyahu

woah woah settle down with that real life stuff, this is a porn site

 

[Adhdclassic]

I actually have a german friend who's nickname is Bibi, so it's not weird to me.

I do think there is the tendency of Miru to make the bibi words, but I think she's mirroring Willi, and overcompensating (wormy, wombi, everything with the eeeeeee sounds, better plock my ears from more banshee vowels). The fact that Leia includes all of the club girls in the lingo changes things. Also, Katie isn't just bibi, but fish as well.

It could easily be Nika, Nami or Summer's mum could be one of Leia's girls, which would mean interesting things for Emilio once he starts digging into the Cyrus name.

I still think They are connected to the Zane family in someway especially with Katie taking such interest in Nami and Nika. Only question is if they are kin why were not living better and no one knows them.

this is a good game and has one of the most beautiful female models I have ever seen in that genre (ooh I love big boobs) although I played that and there are almost non-existent sexual content, did I played it wrong ( admit that didn't use walkthrough) ?

You didnt, because there is no sex content, there is also Warning about it at the start of the game

 

[sineraser]

ok mate cheers, I must missed that warning

 

[HornyyPussy]

ok mate cheers, I must missed that warning

It's always a good idea to read the "Developer Notes" in the OP before trying a new VN.

 

[sineraser]

good point, but unfortunately sometimes I'm bit lazy to read notes, but I would play game anyway even without sexual content

 

[Deleted member 6168082]

They didn't say there was sexual content.... re-read the post.

They definitely did rush right pass that intro warning though, very quickly.... Hard to not see it. Must have been mashing the mouse/keyboard to hurry into the game ignoring everything else.

Yeah, I was going to say that lol.

Most people aren't going to bother with reading and searching things up. People didn't learn that yet, I guess.

 

[codex35]

Dude I'm not trying to start another fight but how people miss the blue ball warning screen
I think this is very hard to can't see

Many people also miss this link in the first post. This leads to a page that contains, among other things, a character list. This contains very useful information.
