Just a fair warning, Maja might not end up being a LI :HideThePain:
I hope that gets changed, liked her from the start and the kink factor in 4.5 just added bonus points.
I'm one of those people that plays all paths in all different ways over time, so I'd like her as an option. But at the end of the day, Ocean knows best why he is making certain choices, might be that Maja as LI doesn't gel well with the narrative he wants to tell.

But at the moment, since it's a slow burn game(still a favorite atm), I'm only playing the Bella path at the moment.
I'll play all the paths once the game is done, whenever that may be.

Yeah, the MC is more of a curiosity than anything. From the dialogue, the MC isn't flirty or trying anything, just treating everyone the same. Mila and Bella both say similar and Nadia looks thoroughly confused when the MC walks away from her hug and leaves her hanging. They're not interested in him at the start. Hell, even Bella insulted him the first time they met calling him ugly.

That's one thing I do hope that Ocean considers - if you're not pursuing some of the girls, you could help some of the guys that the MC get's close to with someone they're interested in, kind of like a matchmaker.
Yes, and now the pieces are in place for Zara and Nadia to develop some romantic interest in the MC. Doing well in sports will impress them both, and in Nadia's case there is the tabletop game. She appreciates the MC taking it seriously and when the next session adds the sex cards, we're going to get some insight into the side of her that has been a mystery so far.

This will also benefit Sonya. Given how timid and sheltered she is, a fictional scenario like this is perfect for exploring that side of her, and it will give the MC something to follow up on in the real world.

I don't know whether we get to try playing matchmaker, but I remember Ocean saying somewhere that while we won't be treated to scenes of the girls getting it on with other guys, those we are not pursuing won't spend their lives hung up on the MC but will move on.

He also said that he wants the male characters to have a fair amount of development and play important roles in the story. Romance isn't his sole focus in SG; he wants to highlight the importance of friendships as well and the bros will play a big part in that.

EDIT: and of course friendships with the girls we're not romancing as well.

I hope this is true and we ain't getting the same situation again in which Ocean comes here and says otherwise xD

Here's what I think happened with Maja:

She used to be one, and I don't see why Maja and Victoria wouldn't be related in the Patreon version of the game if it isn't to make a threesome possible without having issues with Patreon. Well, we have enough LIs for me not to mind too much about it, but I like her. Let's hope she reverts to LI status :)

So I can only have threesomes with siblings? Must be this p0rn-logic. :p

While Maja is nice, We already have a plethora of blonde LIs on top of the like 20 other LIs he has planned. We dont need any more to make the updates become longer and longer.

We have 4 paths open right now and it takes him 7 months to do an update. What happens when we have the 20 LIs he has to incorporate into the story and make content for?

Ocean's amnesia seems to be getting worse, given the claim Maja was never a LI:
Every girl that isn't a side chick is a potential love interest.
So main girls are?
The so far introduced:

- Nami, Bella, Nadia, Ayua, Victoria, Nojiko, Maja, Sonya, Mila.
Mind you this is from 2020, Ayua & Nojiko aren't main girls/LIs now either apparently.

I think that the exclusion of some girls from the list of LI is due to the removal of the dark path from the game.
That makes sense, Mila would be a dark path in comparison to Vic, Nojiko in comparison to Nami, Ayua in comparison to Bella. Make the latter girl fall for you but then hurt them with someone close to them.

Now jokes aside. :)

Basicly you are right, this could work in many cases or games.

But...

Alone from the little glimpes on the dark path (afar shooting Mrs.Marla), I have doubt that Ocean had a little jealousy drama in mind as he designed he dark path in the past.

Ocean changed the AVN focus of the MC from a dark path/light path (see the early walkthroughs where you can get either dark or light points) to one of healing.

This changed some of what we were told about the relationships in 2020.

For example:

Bella - Dom, sub, normal
Amber - Love, sub
Vanessa, Dom, sub

There was even a harem option (originally included many of the women) but this went away when the focus changed from an AVN including a dark path, quasi psycho MC to one of healing.

The harem is gone, along with the dark path.

We'll see what happens with the dom/sub parts mentioned for certain relationships back when there was a dark path possibility.

I can't speak to what SG would be like if it continued with two such divergent paths (dark and light) within the same story.

The number of potential story permutations (full on dark, dark, a little dark, neutral, a little light, light, paladin full on light) would make SG a very difficult story to tell well on all paths (and even to make the choice variation meaningful, from a story perspective).

It would also slow story development to a crawl as Ocean tried to cover all the variations required to tell the different facets of the Light to Dark paths well.

I can say that I very much enjoy this story of healing where the MC gets to choose who he wants to build relationships with.

I like the fact that there are story consequences that we can see (actual panic attacks) when the MC pushes himself 'too hard.'

I love the scene where Bella's appearance at the end of CH 4.5 simply stopped a panic attack dead in the water.

Once the MC heard her car, the panic just vanished -- that made the MC/Bella relationship even better and more meaningful for me!

It wasn't even that long ago

I think you misunderstood me, too many negatives in my sentence :D The only threesomes possible are with nobody related to each other in the Patreon version.
I think Ocean is avoiding threesomes involving two family members in the Patreon version. The two relationships that I know are different with the incest patch are MC-Nami and Maja-Victoria, they are not related anymore. For me that implies some threesome action with them was planned, while Amber/Bella remain related so will not be possible. It's only my guess though.

That's not even what he meant you may have threesome with others if the route you follow have it. If Ocean didn't censored them like what he did to MC and Nami he will have a problem with patreon when there's a time we get a threesome with those siblings

Well technically you don't bang anyone yet. And I guess it will have some seasons until that happens.

And, well, later you have technically to settle for one girl per save. Some are compatible, but most are exclusive.
