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

[N1ghtcrawler]

I have been thinking in a relationship between Vanessa and Nika, i think they would match well
They have this "scanning" vibe, they are always observing their environment and trying to find weak spots in all the people, Vanessa even think what words say before speak.

I was just looking at old posts and wanted to add. There are indeed many similarities between Nika and Vanessa, not only the scanning vibe. They actually look great together.

Vanessa is one of the few LIs with whom Nika can spend a long time together and during that time they will comfortably share silence.

Also, I'm not sure about this, but I can imagine if during some breakfast Vanessa starts mocking Zara, she'll get reprimands from Nick, but Nika will remain silent. If he has something to say to her, he'll do it when they are alone.


Bella too has this vibe of a girl with whom you can share silence for a long time, but in her case I think it works on special occasions.

Great post. Here's an idea for a script though: a character never suffers any repercussions, but it always falls on the people they care about instead.

Yes. It's basically what I suggested in the Amber and Mila case, but still it has to affect Nika and Bella's relationship, otherwise it doesn't work. How do I put this? ... Nika must be the physical manifestation of Bella's conscience. Without him, her conscience has no connection with the outside world and she will not be able to express her inner conflict. Do you understand what I mean?

Better Call Saul has just the perfect parallel, but that's a major spoiler of the ending. I would like to tell you about it, but I don't know if you have watched the series or are ready to find out the spoiler if you want to watch it or not.

I kinda felt that way about WIAB, so many characters I found repulsive. Somehow, I now manage to get through it without the emergency CTRL key (mainly because one of the characters I dislike is the MC) .

Katie, Miru and the land whales

We won't be laughing about this for long. By the end of S2 all of SG's characters will look like those fatties. Ocean can't help himself.

I'm curious of your definition of normal if you think all the women in WIAB (Bar Miru/Katie) are 'land whales'. Actually feel sorry for any woman in your life if your body standards are that high....

In fact, actually very curious, is there anything about either Vn you actually do like?

Im not good at this, but i still tried to make an edit

I just noticed on my current replay through the game that Sasha's super hot friend (whose name still hasn't been told to us yet) is in the background when you go shopping with Bella for clothes. It never shows her unblurred in any shot, so I never noticed before but you can see her distinct hair style/color/length on one side, the other side is pulled behind her shoulder.

She really is eeeeverywhere haha... I really hope we get to bang know her in this coming chapter!
View attachment 3645624

You know, I can only see two options here
1. She is just a friend or relative to Sasha.
2. She is a Revera.
I have no doubts that she will be an important character, she wasn't in the "old" SG and we have see her quite a lot in the background, she also is the one that finds Nika when he is having a panick attack in some classroom. The question is if she will be a main character or a secondary character. (also hoping she have a LI status)

getting alot of images missing like "Image "z540" not found" is that the incest patch or?

how many people at college would like or interact with Nika if Nami wasn't there by his side? How many times has Nami been there to not only keep Nika's worst impulses under control, but to guide Nika's interactions with others and balance out is anti-social behavior.

Nami is Nika’s conscience, he'd have a harder time fitting in without her but he’d pull through and make friends at ZPR. He comes off as weird, especially in the start when he‘s down in the dumps, but people are attracted to him for his other qualities, which are becoming more evident as the game goes on and his mental health improves.
Nami pushed him to join the basketball but he would join nonetheless. Trey appreached him when he was looking at the tryouts poster. From there he’d meet Jeff with or without Nami, go to the gym with him and find the inspiration to join the basketball team and pursue his passion.
Nami is Nika’s #1 supporter, he’d be worse off if she wasn’t there for him but he would make it through.

I'm sure you can easily tell I'm using hyperbole. I don't actually think the character models are fat per se. But they are thicc. And therefore incredibly unattractive to me. I've said it before, most of Oceans models are gorgeous from the neck up but not so much from the neck down. And that's because I prefer slimmer and more athletic body types. I don't consider that the defining factor though. Take Bella for example. She's still my #1 but I don't have her in my top 10 most attractive chars in Summer's Gone. She has a beautiful face but the rest of her is not for me at all

My standards aren't high at all. I've explained this before. I don't fully immerse myself in VN's. I don't pretend I'm the character and don't pretend I'm in that world. Reality is not the fictional story. Irl looks don't matter nearly as much to me as an emotional connection. Never did. I can't get that emotional connection in a fictitious story. Therefore I tend to value the physical attractiveness much more highly in games and AVN's. It's really not that hard to understand.

I still like a few things in each VN but honestly WiAB means little to me. I look at it like homework for SG. I just play it to better understand the overall story.

Now to add a little controversy

Characters I don't mind seeing with no clothes on: Sasha, Nami, Elsa, Vanessa, Maja, Robin, Claire, Nojiko, Miriam, Nora, Nancy, Kate and "Not 40 year old" Ayua

Characters I would rather kept their clothes on: Everyone else

As has been stated many times, there is a tag in the games section for 'no sexual content'. there's a list 22 pages long with games with this tag, around 650. Why would the forum mods need this tag if it is a porn forum? And this doesn't count the games that have content such as partial nudity, so there's even more games that arent doing 18+ content. You might find games that only have handholding here even.

It's not a good idea to compare SG to the 650 least popular games on this site. I decided to look at them, of these 650 games, 95% have less than 10 pages of reviews for the entire time, SG gains more per day. If Ocean doesn't start thinking about the consequences of his actions, then SG will definitely become 651 among unpopular games.Is this really the fate you want for this game?

Notes to self that no one probably cares about on current replay through:

Man... I mostly play for Bella, though I will have a few other saved routes in the future, but every time I choose to go on a walk with Vic and she asks if you're really sure you don't want to go out with her...

I actually feel so sad and teary eyed when I reject her and make her cry, and yet I feel like if I agree then I would be hurting Bella... I guess it's just a save point I'll have to keep track of to go back on. If I can accept without hurting Bella, that would be nice. But I guess if this were real life, leading her on without real feelings for her or only feelings of friendship/semi-pity would actually be the most painful thing in the long run.

The pain... Why can't I just clone 30 copies of Nika for everyone

Nothing I can do about it, that error comes up sometimes. Next best thing can be done is copy over the renpy/common folder of the win version to the mac version. And replace all when asked.

I don't have Mac so all my Mac builds are untested. But that error hasn't came up in a long long time.

Surprised to see someone thinks Miru is "thicc" I thought she was pretty skinny.... but each to their own

Easy, remember that her feelings are her own and she sucks as a character. All that people can say to her defense is that she's a cute sweet angel stuck in a wheelchair.
That all you got?

The only thicc thing about Miru is MC dick inside her...

AFAIK you don't really need to reject Vic at any point so far. I agreed to go on a date with Vic and told Bella my MC had kissed her. Nothing bad happened. Your relationship with Bella, if you chose to go that route, is an open one so you shouldn't be punished too hard for pursuing other girls until something more serious is set in stone. Plus, Ocean indicated that Vic will be the most compatible with any other girl for a possible throuple.

So don't be an ass and don't make Vic cry. Poor girl has it hard as is.
(I'd totally dropkick her off a cliff for Maja though... ...but not really...I think...I really like Maja...)
