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

[Fortuna ღ]

Lets turn this around a bit shall we?

don't get me wrong
MC is free to talk to whoever he wants
but if MC started flirting with another woman
and being physical with each other that would just be too much
Nami don't want MC kissing anyone or anyone put their hands all over him
Nami loves him with all her heart
and that would be kind of unfair considering since many years back Nami have been rejecting every boy that likes her

Unrequited love is a bitch, but it is not only MC that may face that.

It is rather sad and unfortunate that Nami has to go through that. But I am interested in seeing how Oceans plans on having her process the fact that the man she is in love with, is in love with another woman. I'm interested in seeing it because she is someone that we will have to see on a more constant basis throughout the novel, her being our adoptive sister. The way things are now, she breaks down literally every time our relationship with Bella progresses. I'm afraid to see what she may do once MC and Bella eventually become intimate...

Also, I do not know if it is my English, but I do not understand the last part lol. I do not think that the MC would face unrequited love from anyone unless we the players were to go out of our way for that outcome. Also, one more thing, when Bella and MC were talking about Sai, Bella mentions Nami possibly forming feelings for him. MC acknowledges that and says that she'd never form feelings for someone who mistreats him. So judging from that, we know that it's possible for her to form feelings for someone else, it's just that everyone who may have tried getting to her, may have not taken well to the MC(or the other way around). Who knows? Maybe sometime in the future, MC and Nami may come across a guy that both of them like. Anything can happen... we do have 26.5 more chapters to go, after all.

I think we all can relate as pretty much everyone has gone through something like that.

In her case it is worse, as there is relationship that she cannot break either. That is, she does not have the "get out completely of my life" solution. They are, after all, siblings. So it will be an interesting way to see what happens.

In the end, for me, it does not really change anything... I hope and will do all I can for Nami, but nothing she can do will stop me of going after Bella. That is definite.

It's the accumulation of feelings she gathered throughout the time they've spent together. She was already getting "sad" aka jealous when MC started dating Summer, but during all those years the MC never showed any type of feelings towards her. Now they're both in college, she's seeing him hanging out with other girls and getting into relationships which is super sudden since he basically didn't talk to anyone before college. So yeah, at this point, she's extremely close to have a complete mental breakdown because of the MC because she has never let out the fact that she has feelings for him and now is dying of jealously.

 

[Terminator_26F]

Bella comes from a wealthy, high society family. She frequents the most expensive restaurants and shops in town. The MC is an orphan adopted by a loving mother from a modest background. Bella's mother (a very beautiful woman by the way) behaves confusedly with the MC. Confused and dangerous for his own daughter. The MC has a sister, as beautiful to me as Bella, who has been in love with him for a long time, and he is, I sincerely think, in love as well, but on a whole different level. Bella and the MC are psychologically unsettled, she by the little girl in the photo, he by Summer's disappearance. In short, everything seems very complicated to me and I bet a hundred bullets against three fly buttons that the MC is going to get himself into a shitty situation by letting himself be guided only by his superficial sexual impulses and his old traumas. Anyway, whatever, the DEV will have the last word and I would be happy with that.

 

[Punk01]

Maan that was... i can't describe it properly, a lot of emotion swirls in me...
oh sorry...
Hey everyone!

I'm new here, but i finished a first 3,5 chapters a few minutes ago, and a last few scene was made me angry...
I found this game shortly after i finished BaD, and i have to tell i really enjoyed it, and can't wait the next chapter.

There's a lot of interesting character, and honestly, i hate most of them, like in the real world...Sometimes I discover some similarities between myself and the protagonist.

At the beginning i supposed there will be more contect with Vic's, maybe because I felt indirectly responsible for her accident.
But later i felt like she's just a supporting character, maybe later she'd get some bigger moment, but nothing else...

I really like the girls, who's hanging with the MC almost every time.
I mean Nami and Mila are pretty cute.
Nia and Sony seems a little weird, but not a big deal.

I still don't know what to think about Bella. She was very annoying at first, but as the things going forward, i started to like her.

Robin... well, she's a cute girl, but after what happened on the last chapter, i don't think we'll be a friends.

There were some weird scenes with Sasha in the last chapter, honestly i don't know what to think about that, but i bet we'll see on the next chapter...

By the end, the biggest question is still here... What happened to Summer?


Sorry if it's feels like a mess, but i had to write it down, because i was very immersed in the story.
Anyway, thanks if you readed through, and have nice evening.

PS.: I almost forget. Keep going Ocean, it's really awesome!

yeah that's the sucky part about it we love and care about Nami but only as are sister

Bella on the other hand we fell for Bella hard we love her

we would do anything for Nami except we can't give her the kind of love she's asking for it makes me feel bad

and don't forget the girl were in love with runs at the first sign of love and we have to figure out how to fix things with bella and move our relationship forward at the same time

she's already experience that the first time she third wheeled our protagonist and summer albeit they were kids; she probably understands the feeling already and it will go either it'll prompt her to move on - non-nami route I guess - or it'll make her fight hard for our boi.

if you aren't on her route yeah but sibling love is still a kind of love; just because you can't give her what she wants doesn't mean you stop loving her as family.

It's quite sad really. When this happened with Summer, she stopped hanging out with both Summer and the MC. Albeit she was much younger back then. The major difference here is that she and Summer were best friends when her jealousy caused her to react that way. I'm really curious as to what her jealousy would make her do with Bella, considering that she does not even like her.

she's already experience that the first time she third wheeled our protagonist and summer albeit they were kids; she probably understands the feeling already and it will go either it'll prompt her to move on - non-nami route I guess - or it'll make her fight hard for our boi.

Those are the only real routes she can take with this. She lives with MC and likely will continue living with him for a long time(especially considering that they're all supposed to rent out a house together in the future), so it's not like she can just cut him off in order to move on peacefully. She will constantly be reminded of the fact that he chose Bella over her. What makes this situation all the more complicated, is that Nami cannot run from this. She cannot run from seeing the love of her life with another woman. And I will make it known now that a woman who has loved a man for that long cannot just "move on". It will take time, and in that time she may see the MC with Bella.

I'm sorry, but I just really want to see how it will be handled. I'm fortunate enough to have never been in Nami's position, but I've definitely been in MC's position more times than I can count... and I know how delicate these situations can be. This situation is more complicated than anything I've ever dealt with due to Nami and MC being adoptive siblings. I was lucky enough to have had the option of ending those friendships, but Nami cannot do that. So when I see a situation like this, knowing how good of a writer Ocean is, it really gets my creative mind racing on how he plans to deal with such a situation. Sorry for the rant lol

Bella comes from a wealthy, high society family. She frequents the most expensive restaurants and shops in town.

Or maybe not so wealthy. We can see that Bella comes from a well to do family, but there is NOTHING to suggest they are wealthy in the conventional sense. NOTHING. She could be nothing more than the single child of a high earning double income family who dote on their daughter. That easily explains her shopping and dining habits and her "race" car.

Her mother is in the position to earn $250K-$300K per year or more. ASSume her father has at least equivalent earning power. So they bring home $500k-$600K pre tax. That's an extremely comfortable life style, but it is not wealthy. Proof of of wealth would be a weekend on their private island or some equivalent display of raw wealth. Until we see something like that, statements that she's from a wealthy family can not be supported.

I have no idea what dollar you're thinking of here..

In the US as example. (Especially as it's fair to assume SG is in the US, or similar.)
An average household income yearly, is around $65k - $70k, by 2020 median...
Well off would be considered middle-class... which is $150k - 200k yearly per household..
Above $200 is upper middle-class.. $300k and above yearly, is top 6 percentile. Which is considered wealthy.

So if you're assumptions are $500k - $600k yearly pre-tax, it's very wealthy, even rich.
Enough to support several families.. 7 - 8 'average' families.. So way beyond 'Extemely comfortable' for one household.

 

[LostGhost]

So nami and MC are not blood related? I thought they are siblings not step siblings

Both adopted, from different families at a very young age. (So adoptive siblings?)

 

[Violet Lee]

I have one silly question, Are we able to play/choose music in scenes where there is no specific music?

For eg, In this scene there is no specific music playing, I can see the music player interface, but I can't play any music. Is it like this?
View attachment 1410156

Just play your own music maybe. Before SIG 3.5 i used to play music from Vesky, because his tracks suit this game alot in my opinion. Ocean already uses some of Vesky's tracks in his games like the main menu themes. Like: Vesky - Dreamstate/Regret

It is not something that is likely to happen in this game, no. That was in reply to someone who don't want to see Bella have eyes for anyone but MC. And perhaps I'm a bit tired about games where many girls just throw themselves into MC:s arms.

Wealthy or not, there is a huge gap between the worlds of Bella and the MC. It is only in fairy tales that this is not a problem ...

Does anybody know the full story about Ocean and Regium? If yes tell me please
I only know that Regium used to be the main developer of SG, and Ocean was Regium's helper. Then for some reason Regium left and Ocean took care of both his own game WIAB and his friend's game SG.
What happened between them and why did Regium disappear like Summer? Is he still a game developer?

 

[Terminator_26F]

I understand that the story has 30 (thirty) chapters. And we are only at the third (and a half!). Holy shit, I'll be dead before the end ... so it's useless for me to keep following this story ... too bad !!

Afaik the original story of SG was penned by Oceans and Regium started developing the game, this apparently didn't last long as Regium wasn't able to render some scenes (the rain scene just before Victorya's accident - mentioned in a recent WIAB devlog). Ocean then took over the rendering of some scenes.
Why and why Regium then dropped the sails to leave the field to Ocean drifted into the realm of speculation - about which I can make no assumptions whatsoever.

Well, even this is the case - you can enjoy a good story.

That reminds me of the "Dark Tower" books from Steven King. In one of the afterwords of the first books has SK mentioned that he received letters from inmates in the death cell - who received their date of execution - and wanted to know how the series of novels would end.
