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

[ICanBeCuddly!]

Bella's outfit is not just provocative, she's literally showing her nipples, which wouldn't be considered just "sexy" but more like inappropriate. Again, specially in the context of the place where they are in those scenes.

Bella was gorgeous in that outfit! Don't understand what was wrong with it and what nipples?

For the sister I mean, I know how girls dress on hot days but going to school with literally just underwear is kinda too much. Not just for being in public but even more for the context of going to class.

Nami showcasing her little cheeto butt was not normal to me. It was a little weird. But chapter 1 is being reworked, incase you didn't know. It'll probably be changed when it's released along with the final version.

I want Nami out of that sweater! Or...

I can't think so many others VN with girls dressing at this level of sluttishness on a date or public in general, even when they took themselves way less serious.

I cannot think of so many other VNs with girls dressing up like that either, or should I say, not dressing up?, but I can think of some similar instances I've found myself glued to, in real life.

Guys, I was scrolling through the comments and it seems like this is a wonderful game with no sex yet. Am i right? Thanks and cheers.

You are correct but even the renders are worth it tbh

 

[ICanBeCuddly!]

You have to admit, its weird seeing someone rich like Bella wear cheap mascara that smears when she cries

Especially when shell shit talk the mcs cheap underwear

There are expensive things that aren't waterproof, and it's not like Bella anticipated that she'd cry any day sooner like a baby.

 

[sneakychase]

and vanessa is simply unearthly sexy so do what you must with that info, oh and zara and nia are *chefs kiss

 

[Quarron]

Yo, I just woke up, and it seems like someone is jealous of Bella's outfit, like wtf? We're not her husband dude calm down lmao.

 

[Garen]

Good god even in an update that's not about her, Bella has such a strong presence. Even her own cinematic.
Rip to all my non-Bella-main-girl homies in here.

Sorry not sorry.

Ok, so let's pretend that she hasn't dressed normally literally every other time she went to college throughout the story. While we're at it, let's also pretend that she did not wear an oversized sweater and that her butt was on full display for the world to see.

Except she isn't. Unless you can see through her outfit, you're not seeing anything lol. View attachment 1857846

Darling, please enlighten us all to more instances of the girls displaying this "sluttishness" that has you so riled up. I myself am rather curious...

I think conservative is the right word you're looking for. And I'd agree had anything you said made sense. Neither Bella nor Nami went around just showing off their bits to people. Even then, nothing's wrong with what they wore. More emphasis is going to get thrown on certain body parts because, again, this is an adult game. But it's really not anywhere near as serious as you're making it out to be.

Not gonna answer to everyone who quote me, but I'm going to say a few things

You can clearly see her nipples in some scenes, it depends on the angle.

What I said obviously was just my opinion (Because everyone is talking about culture differences or shit like that right now, I'm Western, not from fucking Middle East), but I still think women on this game dresses more lewd outdoors than in other VN. If you think this is not bad or immersion-breaking, good for you.

I'm going to confess that the only reason for my "long" response was because he kinda got my nerves yesterday with that last cocky line implying I'm not intelligent enough to realize she wears that to be provocative/sexy. Otherwise, I wouldn't bother, it's my option against yours at the end.

 

[HornyyPussy]

This is a Fantasy Adult Virtual Novel, please stop comparing it to real life moral and standards (talk about immersion breaking). Of course the women in these games dress sexier than most do in real life, it's a big part of their attraction in my opinion. If I wanted realism in these kind of things I'd watch a romantic comedy then hit Pornhub......

 

[sigge99]

just found this game, and must say that even whitout any sex scenes, it was one of the most intressting i played

 

[Tairnel]

I'm from a conservative religious country, so maybe my idea of 'normal' is skewed, but I have to agree with him that Nami's sweater was a bit much for college. Obviously we can handwavium that and the other examples away using the 'porn game logic' card, but it still looks a bit weird. Especially in the scenes where they're wearing tank tops, and it looks like the tops were forcefully pulled down to reveal the cleavage (because they look like what collars look like when they get pulled).

Ahh, these are just youngsters, let them have their fun. I saw a lot of weird dressing in my college times.

You're right. At the end of the day, this is all subjective. I'm just giving my opinion since, you know, I am a woman. To each their own. But if that's enough to negatively affect your experience of this game, then perhaps this isn't the right site for you lol. I mean, I can almost guarantee that before you brought it up, most of the people here were unaware that it was even an issue. I'm a woman and I didn't even notice lol. At the end of the day, this can all be attributed to Summer's Gone being an adult game. There's no lewd content(yet), so Oceans has to find another way to market Summer's Gone as an adult game. When you look at the other AVNs on this site, it could be a lot worse. Unrealistic body proportions, women sleeping with the MC for whatever dumb reasons the author thinks of(essentially having no personalities), etc. It could be a lot worse. But to each their own I guess...

 

[Hellster]

Are people seriously arguing about someone's clothes in a game ? My god.......
Only on F95 folks

 

[Quarron]

Btw, I hope we see some lightsaber duel shit in the next Tabletop Session if we're going to play PvP .

 

[Laehtsia]

Well, at least the Mass Effect Line has been taken out from the beginning with the rework.

Which line ? Btw I remember the Mass Effect 3 Palaven wallpaper on Miru's laptop in the oooold WIAB

Ok, so here's the deal generally speaking in these situations, and I would imagine the situation with this game won't be any different from Being A DIK / City of Broken Dreamers, etc...but I could be wrong since Ocean can do this however he wants, so just keep an open mind and pay attention with Ocean's dev logs in case things change.

I'd personally recommend NOT buying the Steam copy right away if you want to become a Patreon member - you will not automatically become a Patreon if you buy the Steam copy, you're just a person who bought "Season 1" on Steam. What Ocean will "probably" do is when the game launches on Steam, the game will include Chapters 1-5. And then Steam probably won't get an update until the next set of 5 chapters releases - that's how Being A DIK / City of Broken Dreamers, etc. does it.

You just kinda have to decide what you want to do - if you sign up on Patreon, you'll pay a monthly fee, and depending on that fee, you'll get access to certain things (Dev logs, game releases, etc.). (you can cancel this at any time also, just fyi - just be advised you get charged at the beginning of the month, and if you cancel your subscription you lose all access immediately no matter where you are in the month, so if you cancel, cancel at the end of the month on the last day or two)

What I do is back on Patreon just to support the development of the game but I usually download the updates here on F95. I don't back to a high enough level to get the game on launch day - for example the recent Beta required you to be at the $22 per month tier to get it on launch day which I think is asking a bit much, so I just waited a few hours and it popped up here on F95.

So my advice would be: back to the $ amount per month on Patreon that you want to support Ocean with, and then just pickup the updates here on F95 and then add the game to your Steam launcher. I add all games to Steam launcher so I have them all in one place with a custom background and everything for the game to make it look more official, so you can still sort of "have it on Steam" if you want.

There is no such thing as a Steam member. It's like itch.io, you just buy the game and then you're done. Patreon members, they pay a monthly subscription fee sort of things, which is why they get special benefits.

People who simply buy the game most likely won't get anything other than the game they paid for.

Thanks guys

The wait will be worth brother.

Ahh, these are just youngsters, let them have their fun. I saw a lot of weird dressing in my college times.

I had a professor that only faced the chalkboard or his desk. He was a graduate assistant in a auditorium calculus class so, early twenties himself. He never looked at his audience of freshmen and freshwomen. The fact the ladies were already in bikini tops and shorts to get sun after class may have had something to do with that! I know I waited until everyone had walked out before I left. Just relaxing in the back row and watching the parade.

 

[karlsberg]

The women definitely dress a bit more openly than irl, but as was mentioned before, this is a adult visual novel, so it's expected. And I'm certainly not complaining.
The only case where this is somewhat egregious imo is Bella's mom wearing a see-through blouse to a therapy session to the point you can see her nipple piercings. That's rather immersion breaking.

Girls just love showing areolas and also, slipping off their tops when they're near MC. That's just part of the laws of physics in this world.
