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

[BobTheDuck]

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

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

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.

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.

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.

I like that not every women in the game is a LI and they are beautiful women, it add realism and makes the world feels bigger. Sure it is frustrating that we have a landlady as good looking as Nojiko rotten away with Nick while Miss Marla is a LI but make all the other women ungly seems like a bas idea.

Great side characters can make a world, story or game shine brighter. Same with background characters. They can really add to the depth, complexity and authenticity of a story.

Sure it sucks when you're drawn to one of them and want to know more about them but overall I don't think we should incentivize devs to create less of these or ask them to create games with 127 LI's

 

[Elduriel]

Maja is too attractive to not be a LI.

there are barely any unattractive women in the game though, so that's not saying much. In fact I find it kinda funny, not one fat girl, really? But that's almost typical for AVNs.

10/10 would banter again!

That makes sense. I think I got into SG right before the heavy remake stuff started. I remember it looking a lot more basic and having more music. I still have the OG version of WIAB installed somewhere.

I mean Mila is not fat but she is not skinny either. You mean Lizzo fat or a good chubby girl ?

or any kind of ugly girl, show me one from the game coz I can't remember any. And it's def not realistic (it's a game, but whatever)

Damn reaction limit.
Yep, earlier in the cannon versions she was a "friend", now she's a "sister"
And yeah, if there is any sharing, then I think it will only be Vic’s initiative.
Just watching the scene in the therapy center, when Maja talks about how she helped Vic take a bath and how Vic asked her if MC would want to kiss her on a date; what an expression Maja had on her face - she will definitely never betray Vic's trust and will not allow anything to happen between her and MC behind Vic's back.

I am not fan of Cindy. Is not, but if we are gonna have a unrealistic game better be for too many beautiful characters than for too little. And all the good looking girls fallen in love with the MC. Also beauty is subjective.

That is why is strange having a lewd scene with her if she is not a LI. Not saying that there is no way, Ocean seems to have thought one, just saying that I could not think of one. Will be glad to see it when the time arrive.
