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

[Massagecook01]

That is true but music especially good music that matches a scenes makes a AVN stand out. Which is what Summers Gone has accomplished with it's choice of music in my opinion. Even if you personally don't like the music in this game many people do praise this game for it's music , there is no denying that. At least when I first started playing AVN's as a hobby last year and heard about Summers Gone on reddit all I heard was it had good renders and music. But yeah music doesn't make or break a game it just makes a game better if done well otherwise it doesn't matter.

one of my favorite songs in summers gone that isn't in it anymore was , three letters by velvethead ft cara dee, the scene with the MC and bella sitting on her car and them eating burgers and fries. that song was made for the scene i was so sad it got taken out.

Her tits are about to fall out. How can that be professional. Even Ocean commented that the blouse now provides far bigger cleavage.

Sure, her behaviour in the original was not professional with all the hugging (though imho it makes sense cause she knew full well her daughter and MC were getting really close, that soon he will be her daughter's boyfriend and thus part of her family and she was acting more like a caring MOTHER - or future mother-in-law - towards him than anything sexual), but her dress definitely covered more than it showed (which is opposite to the new version).

Not being a hypocrite, I love her breasts and will still salivate over her and think to myself (this is how Bella will look in 20 years; hot damn! put the ring on that girl's finger ASAP!), but I would think twice before calling her new shirt professional.

I think the things to consider is that some people dress flaymboyantly in every circumstance, some prim even when on holiday. There's a whole range in between, and the way someone presents tells us about them.

One thing I noticed as far as a lack of professionalism is that the previous scene with the see-through top has no bra. I can't imagine a person wearing such a top not wearing a bra the whole day with a variety of clients. The whole reason for not wearing the bra was for the piercing reveal.

So we understand from the old version Amber is prim on the outside, all buttoned up, but wild on the inside. New scene, we'll have to see how that plays out. Most likely we see her as caring and the wild side emerges from that. THe big change will be professional behaviour. Her behaviour in Ch5, introducing herself to Nika as a stranger shows her professionalism there, so the big loss is the sense of the wild child hidden within her. But maybe that will be shown in other ways, we can tell until we see the new scene.

What the hell is Nika talking about here?

There's a whole group of people claiming Sasha is Summer after surgery, kept like Princess Peach in the wrong castle and so is not a natural born Petrova. I'm not convinced. I think this is one of those scent moments, Like when Nika notices Bella's perfume - at moments when he feels any romantic interest, he appears to have heightened senses. There's also the joke from the milf club about Sasha having exceptional pheromones.

I'm sure this will be clearer once we are able to spend more time with Sasha, Robin and Ayua.

By the way, in the old WiAB Helen used the same perfume, with the scent of amber, iris and neroli. I don’t remember if this hint was preserved in the new WiAB.

I mean Summer could have always been a petrova, our good old oblivious Nika probably wouldnt realise it like with the frohns or has her surname supressed (or never knew it lol).

But yeah this theory just sucks anyway no matter what. There's just no way that Nika and Nami wouldnt recognize her, even if her looks would have changed more or less completly due to her voice and stuff.

And i think Summer and Sasha are polar opposites regarding their personalitys. Sasha is reserved while Summer is very outgoing.

And even if should would have been kept in a omnious tower or facility or whatever, theres just no way she wouldnt approach Nika/Nami/Nia now.

This theory is just braindead.

Huh, I hadn't considered the idea that Summer was a Petrova from the start. But like you I discount that as Noji would recognise the name of the college, and Nami and Nia would recognise the Sasha's name and wonder if she was Summer's secret sister. Nami's not that clueless, and Summer was Nia and her friend. The personality differences can be just due to trauma from whatever happened, but yeah, it's quite a cheap theory.

Yeah, I wouldn't trust this loggerhead to buy a roll.

You won't believe the changes that can happen to a person when electroshock therapy is used properly.
So far, the only obstacle to this theory remains Ocean, but he has almost given up.

Maybe, or at least we will see a lot of Sasha in the background.

I remember Ocean once said that in the second season we would see a lot of scenes from Layla. Since Layla's job is a bartender, the possibility of a party-related scene, Layla once mentioned it at the gym.

And we might be able to find out many new character names from nameless characters.

 

[leo dicaprio]

the failure of the game on steam is pleasing, the wish list is ridiculous, I hope this will serve as a lesson for other developers, what kind of game to make for someone there besides the players, the players' response is quite natural

I think there is the official bar opening party (rather than it just being open in the scene we have in season 1). There is a chance we'll find out more about Sasha's friend in that season 1 scene seeing it's redone, and Sasha and Robin are now part of it from what I saw in the devlog. We'll definitely find out some names in the opening party, and I imagine Nika will have a panic attack trying to remember all the new names.

Now I'm really curious!
What failure on the steam and what natural reaction of the players are you talking about?
"the wish list is ridiculous" wtf is this even supposed to mean

Poor Sasha Simps Monks, I guess that means they won't have any lewd moments with the Goddess. Monks don't do that.

 

[AlexFXR]

to tell you the truth there is only one song in summers gone i liked but it got removed and i play a lot of AVNs that have no music and i still love them and the AVNs that have music a lot of them ain't so great or successful. music does not make a AVN great it's the story and characters .have shitty story and characters no music will make it any better , like putting gravy on a pile of shit.

You are absolutely right, I also consider music to be a seasoning in a dish. Music is a subjective thing that doesn't necessarily need to be in the game. Moreover, if one person likes it, another will consider it terrible. For me, music in SG has a neutral meaning, I don’t consider it good or bad, but I wouldn’t add it to my album with my favorite music. By the way, no one is stopping people from turning on their favorite music along with the game and enjoying it.

very few people added the game to the wish list, even fewer than the guys with 200-300 subscribers, Brazilian and Russian curators wrote not to buy because of rework is suck, and this is half of the AVN buyers on Steam

 

[Dessolos]

Well i'm one of those few that wishlisted it. I wishlisted this back during the Summer right after I first played this when I got into AVN's lol

yeah i play most AVN on mute because i dont think the music is good or that important, and sometimes to me they feel like laugh track on a comedy sitcoms trying to force me feel some sort of way.

I wish I could get used to no sound. If there is no sound I have to put some ambient music on, it feels weird to play something without background noise cause of my years playing mmo's. But I still perfer bad or crappy music than nothing tbh but im not a music person either I just don't listen to any unless it's in whatever game or tv show im watching. I just hate complete silence

well, I just like that because of his attempt to remake a small percentage of Germans on steam ( who is smart, turned into the British there a long time ago, when I played an MMO RPG and a German came to our clan, they immediately told him how to do it), he lost huge markets

What are you talking about?

Right now 11 Steam Curator wrote a review about Summer's Gone, and none of them wrote such a nonsense like you try to suggest.

This is just 2 out of 9 curator who recommend Summer's Gone:

This is a visual novel that tells a poignant story of healing, hope, and love, skillfully addressing themes of mental health, ambition, and romance through engaging characters and impactful choices.

LifeIsReallyStrange > 13K Followers
Yes, its adult game. But its not adult just because its about sex - its about healing and hope, overcoming obstacles, making difficult choices, about fighting the demons of the past.

spiti reviews 18+ > 5K Followers
Summer's Gone is amazing AVN with gorgeous renders and hot characters combined with great storytelling. Give it a try,you won't be disappointed

I haven’t found a single negative review yet, I select “All”, I select “Only negative”, nothing. Maybe I should change some settings in Steam to see this?

[...] Brazilian and Russian curators wrote not to buy because of rework is suck, and this is half of the AVN buyers on Steam

I wanted to write "You can’t be serious," but I caught myself having already written it this week, I don’t want to repeat myself.
How did you find this out that these are half of the AVN buyers.? Did you feel it?
