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

[SaltySugar]

This game is getting a lot of flak cause of the lack of sex scenes, some warranted, some not, so the dev decided to remove even the slightest hints of what can be considered "lewd" content with these reworks. This is so stupid it's actually funny.

 

[Night Hacker]

I agree!

Porn is easy to find.

A great adult romance with adult content that fits the story - Not so easy to find.

This is what I have told people, almost exactly. I want sex when it fits the story and doesn't insult my intelligence; much like a good movie.

Hillside is another good VN this way. It's one of the few VNs I actually enjoy the dialog and story, it's well written. Has a few sex scenes, but not much. The MC actually turned down a chance to see another woman because he has an interest already, which surprised me, and pleased me at the same time.

I pretty much never use the word hater... But you really are just a hater... A pathetic one at that.
I would never snap at someone who's actually providing constructive criticism.

I guess it's time for round three then?




We're still waiting for you to actually point out the "broken English and the grammar errors [that] stick out like a gangrenous wound".

Would you be so nice to finally point them out now, or will you just facepalm me again for calling you out?

Why is people so negative about this game?

If you don't like it, instead of bashing it, i suggest you move on. Wishing the author to drop the game is peak stupid.

i don't get it how people can rate this with only 1 star. i mean 1 star is the worst you can vote here and the people wrote that it has good renders and other good things and then they vote only 1 star because of some little issues.

I'm almost 100% sure the same ppl bashing the dev for not giving them enough fap material are the same ppl who'd forget how 'trashy' the game supposedly is, according to their flawless logic, and furiously jack off to seeing the MC fuck Bella, Nami, Mila, or any of those beauties here, so just ignore them and you'll be dandy.

mc should buy a strap on, there is no other choice for him

Since his dick don't work just give Bella a strap-on and she can fix the no sex situation.

I bet the MC's the type of motherfucker that would make even a strap-on go limp with his virgin emo shit talk.

i have been scrolling for 10min straight to find compressed version for this bs

Use the damn search function, man.

Thank you for the reply
Does that mean season two will have the lewd content cut out for the steam release?

Sorry If I sound stupid, I'm still a bit confused about season two and beyond

Because wouldn't season two have to have no lewds to release In Germany?

Season 1 - no lewds - yay Germany!
Season 2 and beyond - lewds all the way dawn - nay Germany.

I'm glad I don't live in Germany then lol
Because I want to see Nami get railed
Of course, I would rather I do the railing
But I'll have to settle for the mc to do it

Either way tho she needs a tongue up her arse & vagina as soon as possible

Who doesn't, bro, who doesn't. But she's already kinda weirdo herself, so it's a big question who'll rail who
For example, if you're on Bella's path, Nami suddenly has a facesitting kink, and she almost jumps on your face, while you're lying on sofa

Damn that sounds hot
I haven't played this for a while, so I have forgotten a lot
I'm waiting for the rework to be finished and then I'll start again
But I will definitely be doing a solo Nami playthrough

 

[Acsuka]

Who's the mysterious girl at the end?

Probably Bella's sister.

 

[Itzan]

How long does it usually take for the FULL version to come after the BETA one? Wondering if I should wait for it or just download this one.

 

[akinari2014]

What are your theories about that reading book club, bcs that was hella sketchy: Najiko is poor and know that many famous and infuenced people. Kinda sus.

 

[JJ1960]

there is some spicy scene like the foursome in ch4 in this one? if there is only bella I skip

Other than the group nude oil wrestling match Coach Hill sets up in the physical ed class, no.

 

[mitymity]

I totally forgot Mila existed, when she was at Nick's, i was like who's that? Oh it's you...

 

[reahwea]

We are waiting for the release... What will the novel be called? : Is Nika gone?

Is Nika hard?

Like, I understand some of the criticism I've seen here. There are moments throughout the game where you're questioning the MC. But these are always explained within the story, often in following scenes and/or sequences. He's pushing himself to the extremes, resulting in increasingly severe panic attacks because he hasn't adequately coped with his own depression(not too uncommon in real life). I've also seen many people critique the sexual nature of some scenes, and I actually agree to an extent. Sometimes, an LI is out of place to strip and/or act suggestively. @Oceanlab can work on executing those scenes/moments better so that they feel more natural to the player.

"There is no worse blind man than the one who doesn’t want to see."

I have no issue with your other points. You are right. And I personally have never criticized Ocean for his dev cycle, coding, artistic or animation skills.

That said his creative choices are seriously questionable. And you cannot tell me you don't notice how he's been shooting himself in the foot consistently every time he goes back and reworks scenes and dialogues. You cannot tell me you haven't noticed the monumental drop in quality of the game. Take the damn Nami scenes for example. Specifically the post argument when Nojiko finally tells her about Nick and the bathroom scene. Two perfect examples of the incredible highs and massive lows the game currently offers:

- In one you have a deeply emotional and beautiful scene where her nudity seems to make sense. She is staring out the window clearly hurt when the MC walks in and she takes off her clothes in an attempt to make herself vulnerable and exposed while forcing the MC to confront (and hold) her in that state. It's subtle, emotional and the dialogue is strong which makes it memorable.

- Then you have that awful, vomit enducing bathroom scene, which was changed for the worse from the original one, if you choose to stay. That abomination that seems to have been added as nothing but an excuse to "lewdify" the game at the expense of the characters and story. Same thing he did with the new Nojiko porch scene that seems ham-fisted in so he could get us a few cleavage shots of Nojiko, once again at the expense of the characters and story. Need I go further? Can you honestly tell me you like the new Bella fight scene over her sisters picture in the bedroom? Compared to the emotional height the old one reached?

Need I remind you that Ocean could have simply updated the renders and kept the script and scenes as they were? He made a conscious effort to change them. Now we all have our own preferences and taste but if you approach this from an unbiased and imparcial angle, can you seriously tell me that you think the game is stronger now than it was then? I know I'm not the one taking crazy pills. There have been hundreds of people, in this very thread, pointing out the massive decline of the game for years now in terms of story and dialogue especially. You can't dismiss us all as haters...
