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

[Papa Shin]

You know some people actually just want to play these for the characters or the story like this game for me. Not everything is a porn game just cause it has lewds unless that's the focus of the game. I personally enjoy these games more than tv , anime even regular video games. Sure I don't mind the sex part of them but it is not important at all to me. If it was I wouldn't be playing a game like Summers Gone. I could name others I play that has either no sex yet or very little of it but that be going to off topic. Which is why I classify games as either Adult or porn AVN's cause yeah sex and lewds are gonna be present in 90% of them but that doesn't make all AVN's porn games. It depends on the context and focus of the game at least that's how I see things. Which is why SG is an Adult AVN to me even before the rework and cuts. I'm sure many see things differently than me.

It doesn't matter how you see things my guy, there is a non-sexual tag so the game should have that if there is no sexual content but the devs obviously want best of both worlds.

And its not in 90%, but 99.99%, which is quite a significant difference.

That said, I have no issue with a lack of sexual content (even though it is clearly advertised as being sexual). If the writing is good enough then I will probably skip over sex scenes to get to the next bit (DeLuca family and DIK come to mind).

What I do have a problem with is the game not sticking to one path.
Don't wanna show pointless nudity/sexual content? Fine.
Want to have realistic character progression so sex makes sense? A-ok
Wana tell an actual story that is taken seriously? Go right ahead.

So why is it that they show every other female either walking around completely topless or in skimpy underwear that no one in their right mind would wear so openly, at least not without some adequate story progression (Which not only hasn't happened yet but there is no explanation for such behavior either)

The game obviously wants to be taken seriously but then it throws random tiddies and asses in your face FOR NO REASON, extremely intimate (but non-sexual moments) are interrupted by erratic behavior and what should have been an obvious build-up culminating into intercourse is overlooked SIMPLY because the "dev" decided there was not going to be any sexual content in this season.

There is not a single valid reason why Nami's path didn't end with at least half an encounter given her character thus far. They built her up and then threw out 4 hours worth of dialogue to cuck the reader/player.

TLDR: Dont wana put sex in your game? Sure! Advertise it as such and make sure the rest of the story follows that same principle throughout until the characters are ready.

You don't have to respond, not only do I not care enough about this game to read it but it is simply not worth the time it takes to write down my thoughts for random strangers on the internet who think themselves above others for playing a nonsexual game on a site "dedicated" to degeneracy.

I agree with you about the nudity. It's ridiculous that especially young girls undress so easily in front of a man they don't know.

I immediately remembered the movie Don't Be a Menace and the joke about the father being younger than the son. So, about Amber's path. How old is Bella?

Hi, I missed your post yesterday. I believe Bella is about 19 years old, I don't remember if it was stated somewhere in the game directly, but I can't find a quote. And I always kept in mind that Amber is close to 40 and Claire is in her early 30s.

EDIT:
Fuck me! This thread taught me how to read selectively! I didn't notice a mention of the Menace at first.
So you think Von Halen translates as Ashtray?

Amber is in her early or mid 40s.
The age difference between Amber and Claire is 12 years.

I know you don't care but im gonna respond anyways.

I mean I do agree about the random nudity was weird at times especially in the Gym tryouts. Unless you never played this game till the rework it has always been advertised has no sexual content for Season 1. Even if there was no such message to begin with sexual content shouldn't be put in a game because it's an AVN but when it feels right for the developer not when we want it . As most of the time it just makes the game worst and it might as well be a porn AVN and have story and characters take a backseat instead of being an Adult AVN.

With that being said yeah there were 2 moments that could of made sense for some sexual acts in Season 1. But even then id argue only 1 makes sense. As I feel sex with Nami would of felt kind of rushed unless something happens in Episode 5 as I only played her path till episode 4.5 only did a full playthrough on Bella's path. If Nami wasnt his sister I'd say it would of made sense but with her being a sibling I think it would of been rushed. With it the message before the rework I would of been surprised if there was any.

So, is there any confirmed Main LI's or is it where some of them will just overall get more screen time and appreciation then others? Because from what I understand, there are a lot of girls who at minimum took a liking to the MC or have a crush on him but wont be official LI's.

This is the most current LI status I know of.

(There are references to the original rev of SG - a darker story than what Ocean is now telling - and until Ocean reveals pathing/comments on it in Discord/dev logs, recognize that we are likely not getting some of the dom/sub paths planned for years ago.)

Cheers!!

Do i need to do a run for every girl or can you combine some of them?

 

[AlexFXR]

There is a guarantee from the developer that this Game will have sexual scenes, so the "no sexual scenes" tag is not necessary.

The developer promised a lot, but delivered little. Previously, he begged for money for new video cards, and promised to release chapters faster in exchange. He received video cards, but the chapters did not come out faster.

Ocean begging for money??, is there something I missed???
I'm pretty sure I've never heard of that.
To publish faster, hasn't Ocean already done it ?, despite the delay from Steam, producing 2000+ renders in a few months, not including work on WiAB and SG 2nd season.

Currently only a few paths are available, but you can combine several of them.

Let me guess, it's the BMW kid, right? On the list since months. I don't know why some users don't see trolling when it jumps with blank ass in their faces.

Apparently you missed it, look at his old logs that he wrote 2-3 years ago. Unfortunately, Ocean did not publish faster.

Are you talking about those 2000 renders that were supposed to be released at the end of December, then postponed to January.... remind me when we received them? So I don't think this is a good example. Moreover, we all know that these renderings were made not for fans, but for Steam in order to earn more money. As a result, Ocean stupidly wasted this half a year. If you want, you can track the time from the moment Ocean transferred the game to Steam and the release of Chapter 1 of Season 2. This will give a more accurate result.

Everyone has their own tastes and preferences, some don't like kissing Ocean's ass.

This game lost its charm. and I feel like this thread is the strongest echo chamber with most professional white knights in the entire F95zone. They will never listen, and even if they do, they will make an excuse or try to gaslight you.
