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

[yossa999]

You don't even have to imagine this. This is the MC on the dark path. It was scrapped by Ocean during the rework and because of which the game was completely R-U-I-N-E-D.

Follow-up.
I wanted to write: "Rejoice, dark lords, that fragment is still there, untouched since the release of Chapter 2."
But that has changed. Before Steam, there was a hint of how MC planned to cash in on Maja's favor.

The MC talks with Bella about his plans on revenge to Holgersons. Dialogues are from the unpatched versions.

The old dialogue looked like this:

- Bella:"But if you only want revenge for Mila.. why don't you set up something for Mario? Make Nami fuck him and record it?"
- MC: "I would never ask Nami to do something like that! This was my initial plan.. to make him cheat.. not with Nami of course. But.. I changed the plan to his father.. because it would help us both and would hit him much harder."
- MC: "And I have someone who owes me a favor. She'll be useful."
- Bella:"Who is it?"
- MC: "Victoria's friend, Maja."
- Bella: "Okay."

But now it's not that "subtle":

- Bella: "But if you only want revenge for Mila... Why don't you set up something for Mario? Beat the shit out of him?"
- MC: "Again. It's not just about Mila. But we will get her out of there. I don't enjoy this simple shit anymore... I'd like to put some thought into it. I changed the plan to his father because it would help us both and would result in much more devastation."
- MC: "And I have someone who owes me a favor. She'll be useful."
- Bella: "Who is it?"
- MC: "Victoria's sister, Maja."
- Bella: "Okay."

Are you talking about the talk in Maja's car where she asks Nika to babysit Victoria? I remember 3 options: accept, decline and accept for a favor. Imagine being that kind of person to ask for sexual favors in such a case...

But man, it's a game with an MC with several personalities, at the beginning Maja says he's very weird, and we all know he has his demons from the past. It wouldn't surprise me if this favor is sexual.

 

[Miranha157]

I didn't say that. Whether as a LI or just lewdable, I'm sure it would hurt Victoria.

Well, maybe Vic likes a threesome, she even took the initiative to kiss Mila and kissed Nami without any problems, but considering the incest factor, we really won't have a threesome between sisters, what a shame.

But now it's not that "subtle":

I started SG at the launch of S1, if I had played it before and seen that Ocean had made the game more gourmet I think I would have already given up.

Maybe in the previous versions but I don't believe "current Nika" would ask for that.

Didn't he try to choke Bella at the gym? Or was it in the old version?

As a warning to not mess with Nami again. Asking for sexual favors in exchange for taking care of a girl in a wheelchair is totally different.

 

[LHDLLB]

I didn't say that. Whether as a LI or just lewdable, I'm sure it would hurt Victoria.

I'd rather not have the option at all than just a one time thing with no plausible reason as to why not more?

I am sure it would. But if she liked him there would be a conflict, if she is just fucking him ...she is hurting her sister over what ? Nika's magic dick ?

That is my point. A one time thing could work from a story point of view but it would accomplish nothing beyond a fan service that would hurt the character. Maybe Ocean has cooking somethimg really good, I will not judge until I see it, but I do find a rather strange choice.

 

[RNasc4444]

This is mainly for RNasc4444, I was looking on discord because of the new Leia set of renders, and there was this little bit of a conversation - I've condensed out all the banter to just the relevant points:

Lovely Discorder XYZ: Ocean already said he won't add this kind of cheating in game
Just like you can't bang Maja if you're dating Vic



Lovely Discorder XYZ: Trust me, you did. I remember everything said regarding Maja probably.



Exciting times

I feel kinda conflicted though. If Maja never turns into a full LI I kinda almost hope she doesn't even become lewdable. Part of what makes me like her so damn much is her unwavering devotion to her sister, so the cheating route isn't really appealing to me. Even if I find Vic and Mila as enticing (romantically and sexually) as Coach Stahl, I don't want to hurt either one intentionally.

Don't get me wrong, I will fully enjoy any spicy scene with her but it won't be part of my canon run.

I think there's a mention of the favour when they're planning stuff for Holgersons.

d "I changed the plan to his father because it would help us both and would result in much more devastation."
if majafavour is True:
d "And I have someone who owes me a favor."
d "She'll be useful."
scene sd82 with dssa
b "Who is it?"
d "Victoria's sister, Maja."
b "Okay."

Yeah, my second post.
But this is from the Steam version, and there is no hint as to what favor he is going to ask for.

I don't get what's going on, I load a page and it shows half the replies. Oh well, I'm a dumb ass ignore me today

 

[RNasc4444]

It's not hard to add two and two, and conclude if Maja is LI or not.

Those words would actually mean something had I not witnessed 579 changes to SG in the past 5 years. I think Ocean has proved time and time again that a lot of what he says is worthless. What is true today can very well be a mere figment of your imagination tomorrow. Such is the Ocean way.

Yeah, but he's smuggling it for @RNasc4444. It's the best way to keep the dude from running around the thread, yelling at everyone, "Ocean's cockgobblers, get your disgusting ugly waifus away from me, where's muh Maja, I want muh Maja!" Nobody wants that shit again. So yeah, a little bit of Bob's premium copium works like a charm.

First of all I only very occasionally "yell" at Maviarab and the random Ocean man juice sipper when they reply to or mention me.

Secondly I feel like I don't glaze Maja all that much at all. Precisely because we've known for a couple of years that she's been demoted from the LI position. I like her above all other characters but I've made my peace with her side character role a long time ago.

Now if you'll excuse me, I just got home and need to drop a couple of Zara's at the pool, if you catch my drift

Other options could be, it only happens if you avoid the date with Vic, if you stay strong against the puppy dog eyes. But Maja cuts the relationship off when she notices VIc turning yandere.

Anyway, we'll see.

That would be great! Tell you what, make a save where you reject Vic for me but you have to play all the sad parts in which you are reminded that you rejected that adorable, cute, naive little cripple with the puppy eyes and sunshine personality

I still haven't been able to reject her in any playthrough because I feel so damn bad and guilty.

But yeah, it would 100% be amazing if you could reject her and get on the Maja path instead with Vic's blessing

I've done it once, just to see all the choices... it wasn't easy or pleasant to do

I don't understand at all why developers create characters that can't become LI. The exception might be old or ugly characters.

You see, Bob's copium works just perfectly on you!

I have no clue how you're supposed to get a lewd-able scene out of Maja with the way the story is currently presented outside of a non-canon special scene and I absolutely do not want to give Ocean ideas that will distract him from actively working on the story itself.

If it's a one off in the story it feels cheap, hurts Vic whether or not your romance her, and seems out of character for Maja. If Vic is okay with it...there's no way she's ready for something like that yet. If you wait too long to do the scene, it's gonna feel out of place. Reject Vic and have Maja take her place? Maja isn't a LI so that wouldn't make sense either. I just don't know how you'd write one in and make it coherent.

I somewhat agree with Alex. Maja is too attractive to not be a LI. Granted, I don't think all characters should exist for the sake of the MC but it's the same problem Julia had in BARS, she was attractive but off limits being a relative in a non incest game. There would have been almost no pushback if Julia was unattractive or in an existing relationship. Maybe Maja just needs another guy in her life. (I'm gonna get quartered for that).

Maja was originally a LI. She was the fourth(?) female encountered in the game and still has relationship points. Plans change, but there is no doubt she was originally going to be a LI and given the WIAB heritage of SG, the idea of her and Vic sharing is not out of the question.
