One smile from Bella and my heart melted. I can't even describe in words how genuinely happy I was when I saw her

This game is no doubt beautiful like the art of mouth, but I still can not understand, in having so many beautiful women love the male protagonist, why can only be satisfied with kissing, and has not asked to have sex with women, so I am very confused

I see it like this. Since he lost the love of his life he was in a very dark place completely shutting himself off from the world for two years. The game begins when he makes his first small attempt to crawl out of his shell and start interacting with people since that time. All events in the game so far are lasting about a week or less. He has already taken a big leap from being completely socially deprived to interacting with many people (who are mostly a horny girls). With many of them he builds relationships, romantic or friendly.
It's a perfectly natural way from outcast to popular guy. He just can't jump from almost asexual hermit with no interest in the slightest social contact to a crazy love machine. At the current moment in the game, he has already met most of the girls, they got to know him, certain relationships of varying degree of intimacy were established. Beside that he realized that he had a psychotrauma and that he wanted to be healed. So as the relationship building and the healing will progress, sex will become a natural next step he is willing to take. And don't forget that the first four chapters are an "introduction" according to the dev.

She smelling the MC's jacket and crying and because she misses him so much and she had to come back but she's too tsundere to accept it

Summer's Gone was fun (being rude to everyone) but it is time to find something better, and a trustworthy, loyal (not hiding most, if not all, things behind paywalls and not a lying) Dev.

Ah, I see

So, wtf is MC's default name?
It's still showing up as blank for me if I didn't input a name at the start.

Nika. I didn't make a screenshot, but it was answered by Ocean on Discord a few days back. I am not a 100% sure, maybe it was a joke. As a fellow German I find this name... usual, and not really fitting. But it is not my story to tell.

 

[Vopeco]

don't worry bro, if you're on her way then she'll be in every chapter.
a lot or a little, but it will

I wonder if this is true for Nami as well. If she'll be in every chapter, a lot or a little, if we're on her route so far.

It's not a joke. Here's the actual code in Renpy:

$ name = renpy.input("What is your name?", default = "Nika", length = 14)

You can spout your opinions all that you want. That doesn't make them true.

However Let me tell you some facts that are true!


Ocean doesn't give expected dates for releases Since that can vary due to size of the renders and the complexity of it
1 scene can render in 1 hour while an other can take 24

And he is working on 2 games at time.
His render time went down as he bought rtx 3090's

* Chapter 3 to chapter 3.5 took a little more then 9 months
* chapter 3.5 to chapter 4 took 5 months
* Chapter 4 to chapter 4.5 took in 3 months

Wow, you where able to copy and paste a patreon goal, I'm impressed.

Now you have pasted the same goal for the second time. Even now with with colour, to clarify your point, whatever it is...
I still can't find the issue, that are just stated facts to leave no one unclear behind, that even with a renderfarm the games are not in a monthly cyclus.

I'm personally the opinion that this is a great move in reguards of transparency, so everyone who decides to become a patron - or not - knows all they should know before they get charged by patreon and is salty because of...
... reasons...

Hmm, maybe because it was not only the infamous relase date inside the post? Some little news about the overall developement where even posted.

You could beat me to death I would not be able to get what your problem is, the thing you are whining about it common practice for like 99%(?) of the creators on patreon.

I honestly have massive doubts that you have contributed a single penny to support Ocean financially. And when I read your mindless ramblings, you can't even score points with constructive criticism...

Are you serious?! Really? Dude, did you even understand in the last corner of your empty head what kind huge bullshit this complete post was?

I am not here to speed Oceanlab along as I do not sub (when the minimum to get a VN is above the $5 for the majority I always pass)

But if he does not release in roughly 3 month intervals, CONSISTENTLY, more than half of his fans will die before this is done. Assuming the 30 chapters is still the goal.

Does anyone have a Mac download link for 4.5?

I know, but the similarity is there. Hm, Willi is wearing contacts for disguise.

You're not the first one to say this bs and won't be last. but ever since people kept saying he will lose fans because of his update times, he only kept on growing and getting more ‍♂

You missed the point. I said right there at the beginning "I am not here to speed..."

But 30 chapters with 1/2 chapters being made is 60 updates/releases
We have what amounts to 9 done so 51 remaining

51/4 is only about 12-13 years (Long ass time in VN land) but mostly I was saying a lot of the fans are old ass farts who would be dead by then

I never said he will lose fans from anything other than death

Depending on your age it may be 50/50 that you are dead by then

It may be worse

WOW Cabin Fever You guys are pretty psycho
I literally spelled it out for Voez1999 I am numerically talking about people dying from the wait and assuming the releases come 3 months apart (which would be lightning fast ) not anything about taking forever. Obviously I am being facetious. But man oh man I did not expect the degree to which it would over the heads of the bibi's

So what statistics do you have to support your assertion that a lot of the fans are "old ass farts"? Or is this another case of a hater too clever by half and pulling out a wholly unsupported and wildly idiotic assertion out of his old farting ass?
