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

[Warscared]

A young spirit tries to find it's way back to life and not to being lost again. This story is gonna include a lot a dark themes like this but eventually he will find that light no matter what. This story is about healing NOT hiding the wound and pretend it's not there and I know that this Victoria incident gave you a wrong impression of what was about to unfold and that's your fault for having not a clue, I guess most people here didn't. You can't digest the fact that this emo boy shot a blank at someone's leg but thinking that would've been okay if the he had been a high school boy is just bogus.

So you literally meant MC was a one disgusting edgy motherfucker no one will like...huh ?...MC keeps to himself most of the times, he is not going around picking up meaningless fights and bad mouthing people which in turn will absolutely make him unlikable but that's not the case. He is one calm unpredictable fella and more perceptive for his age...he is not even edgy, he just wants to keep to himself unless something interests him. Being an introverted child and having a traumatic past doesn't necessarily make him whatever you described him to be.,,,HE IS ALWAYS CALM !...I mean, when he wasn't ?

About Bella, she is not your regular bitchy blonde who had her life easy and have all of her screw-ups taken no notice of by her parents and other adults. MC had a traumatic experience and so did Bella.

Her hiding under a blanket is not just about the kiss, she was kissed by someone whom she thought would never share her feelings with. She had just found out that she trusted him more than she ever let on and that shook her to the core 'cause that never happens, it took 2 years for Bella to open up to Nadia. She doesn't comfortably trust people because whatever happened to her or her sister in the past definitely did a number on her. What we know for sure is that was traumatic and that's it. And you describing this as another high school drama queen is groundless.

I did get your argument. You somehow think this game is more appropriate in a high school setting. It's just that the way you describe the characters is totally out of place and in addition to that claiming the high school setting is the appropriate one is just seems not sincere and unjustified at the same time mate.

Let's get to the bullying part, WHAT THE HELL ?...That was no bullying, they were insulting Mila and her mother. Given their low social position this kind of disrepute shown by those upper class cunts are common for her so she simply ignores them and tells MC to do the same. NO !...YOU LOOK UP THE DEFINITON OF BULLYING !

...

NOT JUST THE DEFINITION MISTER ! do a little more digging.

go into DM`s and/or find a room! you are both too verbose so either syntethise or go back to kiddie insults so we can fallow the conversation!

make a tl;dr synopsis in the end at least

brother remember what I said

if the conversation is turning into an argument walk away

and don't let it spread to the entire forum

start a conversation with someone else

think of it as a forest fire just agree to disagree and end it

 

[Canto Forte]

Talking smack about anyone gets you the bully badge should you keep badgering them.

Note to self , don't let warscared end up becoming a AVN game writer , he will probably come up with scenarios where the MC gets pegged in the ass by a ogre with a strap on

now that's what I like to hear thank you bro for getting the forum back on track
why are you all looking at me

no wait when I said that's what I like to hear I meant I wasn't talking about the MC gets pegged in the ass by a ogre with a strap on

 

[Fortuna ღ]

I'm aware that college students aren't the most mature people. I'm not even the most mature person myself. That's why I specifically placed "juvenile" there. And no, the immaturity of high schoolers is on another level compared to college students.
The reason I stated that this game has a highschool "feel" is because its narrative and characters. The game's threads are so similar to those highschool drama that you can see even in teen shows, with the petty conflicts and superficiality. You have bullies bullying a poor person for being poor and now have to enact retribution against the bullies and save the bullied. I'm not saying that bullying never happens in college but you don't see this kind of bullying in college, only in highschool. You also have the rich-mean-haughty-girl-but-is-actually-good-inside-if-you-get-to-know-them character that is common in that setting. Even the main character is that edgy "sigma" male that is so unlikeable and rude to other people but somehow all hot chicks flock to him. I get that this is a porn game so the MC is going to have multiple love interests in one way or another, but that doesn't justify how that character is more appropriate in another setting. Then the rich girl's reaction after kissing the MC is also out of place. I understand that you didn't expect to have a fling with someone you initially disliked, but to miss school and stay in bed, obsessing over it? That's more of a teen having their first kiss in middle school. I expected more of the party culture that is so common in college to be part of this game given its genre, or even the crazy shenanigans you do but get away with. Tell me this honestly. If this game omits mentioning its school setting and you show this game to someone - what is more likely going to be their guess: that this is a college drama/setting or a highschool drama/setting? I'm not totally dismissing the game but story is really more suited in a different setting.

Respectfully, there are so many things wrong here that I don't quite know where to start. I was not aware that all high schoolers had a set maturity level. I was not aware that all college students were supposed to behave a certain way. I'm sorry, but people are more complex than that. Maturity is not determined by your degree of education.

Moving on, Ocean has indeed filled out most archetypal character slots when it comes to high school dramas. However, aside from that, the story shares few similarities with that genre. In case you haven't noticed, the main plot involves MC overcoming his traumas from Summer's disappearance, unlike most plots used by stories in this genre. Mila has a history with those guys, hence the bullying. Bella has traumas that she has to overcome, hence her reaction to her and MC's kiss. But if you seriously did not understand why Bella reacted that way to their kiss, then you probably didn't pay much attention to her character at all. The entire AVN is centered around a guy with issues working to overcome them. He's not going to be all rainbows and sunshine. All of your critiques, so far, seem quite superficial.

P.S: It's a bit annoying that the mods deleted my first response(causing me to write a whole new comment), as that was much clearer. English is quite a confusing language at times...

Of course in Warscared's case - it might be Sascha

 

[Fortuna ღ]

hope you will

and yeah - he played BEFORE

at the beginning you can make some light "dark" decisions , this possibilty completely vanish at later chapters
(along with free will it seems)
for example :
my mc would tell this overprotective therapist to fuck off with her bullshit
he would tell those gamefreaks to ..well..play alone
why should he care about a girl who´s mother is a "streetworker" and steals her money
and for your beloved bella - why should he care about her at all ?
because she got hurt back in time? - not his problem isnt it?
victoria - just because he "saved" her , he has no contract over her life with her
it´s not a "i saved you , so im responsible for you " case


this would be "dark stuff"
the mc has its own problems - why should he do all this ?

and i know there will be comments incoming including the beloved facepalms - let em come

It's called progression. The MC still gets negative choices. As for the consequences of those choices? Who knows? I'm no genius, but seeing as this game is centered around the MC dealing with his issues, I'd assume that certain choices you make can either help you rise out of the darkness, or allow yourself to fall deeper into it. I don't think every single choice will be like this, but the ones that are will probably matter. Regardless, it's not like the MC is going to stay a certain way the entire story. He changes regardless of what the player wants. We decide whether or not it's for the better or worse. And I'd assume dark things would come with the latter.

 

[Boehser Onkel]

as this game is centered around the MC dealing with his issues,

He changes regardless of what the player wants

thats the point - it isn´t

would be nice if not - for what im playing/making choices?

 

[Warscared]

Note to self , don't let warscared end up becoming a AVN game writer , he will probably come up with scenarios where the MC gets pegged in the ass by a ogre with a strap on

no kink shaming! i mean my MC would never do something like that but if i was writting yes that option would be available for whoever wanted it!

but if i was ever to write a VN i would have a set scene and a breaking down button for every chapter and whenever the story got too intense you clicked that button and depending on the personality your MC developed until then he would break down crying like a little bitch or start a fight and end up in Jail until the next chapter!

or even... the MC would go on the look out for a suicide by cop scenario...

any game i would ever write would probably be far more into violence then sex but there would be gay stuff NTR and even an Incel Path all optional, just because most of that shit is not my thing it does not mean it should not exist and it should be at the players discretion on what they want or not! probably the only thing it would not have unless the story made sense like that would be incest, but even if the story made sense like that it would be a tricky path to get onto (at least consensualy...)

yes i understand some kiddies who whine also play this games but hey its an adult game so behave like an adult!

but i can not write a vn i have no discipline to ground a story properly scenes and complex scenarios sure, but an entire avn ... probably too complex to get it right, not to mention star wars episode 1 the phantom menace... i would loose myself in the world building and politics!

not to mention i am good with languages leadership psychology numbers sociology geography history and a few other disciplines... what i am not good at? drawing rendering computers so a vn by me considering the amount of out sourcing needed would never be economically viable... read above i am good with numbers!

which reminds me Warscared
you got something against my boy you keep looking at him

and then looking at me and then looking at him and then looking at me and then looking all disappointed in me

dude you are breaking my heart right now!

What isn't? The game is literally titled "Summer's Gone"

"" as this game is centered around the MC dealing with his issues, ""

 

[Fortuna ღ]

"" as this game is centered around the MC dealing with his issues, ""

The MC along with almost every main character has issues they have to overcome. It's kind of a central theme here... overcoming your demons if you will. MC has his demons because... well... Summer's Gone. Bella has hers because she'd witnessed something terrible involving her sister, Nami faces neglect and(for some players) unrequited love, so on and so forth. Please correct me if I'm wrong

read your post and think what all of this are the mc´s issues ..
i quote again from your post above and my answer :
you : "" as this game is centered around the MC dealing with his issues, ""

me : "" thats the point - it isn´t ""

the mc deal with everyone stuff but not his (so far) - and his issue is missing summer

but enough about this - we can go back and forth with this
and if you now point to the therapist - this lady has (imo) way other motives about and with the mc

I... can't really tell if you're serious or not. The MC has taken small steps to deal with his issues since the beginning of this story. Ocean cannot just have the MC fix his issues, because then that eliminates the current driving force behind the main plot. Furthermore, it's not something that can be done in one update. We're talking about overcoming trauma that set off a butterfly effect causing years worth of issues for the Main Character. A complex issue that requires an even more complicated method of fixing. Maybe it's my understanding of English... but you're not making that much sense. None of your posts were making that much sense honestly. Again, it may be my understanding of English that's limiting me, but unless you'd(generally speaking) blatantly ignored major parts of the AVN, it's hard to understand where you're coming from. Amber hasn't really been shown enough to suggest she'd have any ulterior motives outside of nurturing Bella and MC's relationship. So I'm not sure where you were going with that either...

yeah - and after this it is all about the girls issues

bingo - not really professionell -not dealing with the issue the mc has , but bella´s ,using the mc for (like marla does too)

and ik that it not makes sense to some people ,who want the "happy" and "helping" mc
as you maybe had read - i talked about the dark path and that my mc couldnt care less about the
issues of bella , mila , vic and who not all

but really - enough for (for now) about this - this leads to nothing

 

[The Bush Diver]

Since I've redone a full playthrough a few days ago, here are some theories recently came up with. Not sure if anybody pointed out something similar before...

1) MC's captivity happens on a Friday. Where Nadia tells Sonya that, after the gym, they would go out to play the tabletop game. Since the MC is supposed to take part in it, somebody has to come back and free him, right? My best guess would be Nadia, coming back and saying something like "It was Zara's idea", or something of the sort. Maybe even Robin, who has been acting nicely towards the MC and just wanted to free herself from owing anything to Nadia..?

Anyways, Zara needs to be fucked in the ass. Moving on...

2) Nia asks Nami about the MC and Summer towards the end of the bathroom scene, after working out at the gym (which exactly, we don't know). After the game, having made a deal with her, she invites the MC to come to her place on Sunday. She may be oblivious about MC's boner issues (or not, maybe Nami told her?), but she sure thinks that he's packing quite the cannon. Could she have asked Nami about Summer's perfume or something? Like an infallible plan to make him get a hard on?

All I know is that I can't wait for the next update, that's for sure...

i can get behind this!

WHAAAT ?...

Brother I was done and that was it, I ended it. I wouldn't let ignorance spread all around the forum brother. You know me, not that well it seems. I just couldn't let him stick to his image of Bella. Anyway the dispute was looking pointless and those ill-founded critiques made my eye sore, so I moved on...AGES AGO.

I know that brother and I know that you are right

the guy was arguing with a lot of people and I wanted to stop it from spreading



I just told you to stop talking to him so it wil break the chain

trust me I know you didn't do anything

in fact I was going to leave.the Comment for the last person that talked to him but then you showed up
