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

[Penfold Mole]

Oh, Bella having an accident or getting arrested might actually increase her screen time, depending on the chosen path.

Anyway, it was just mental gymnastics, a pure speculation, not a suggestion or wish for Ocean to follow it. He already has the story mapped out, it would make me the happiest if he would follow it through the way he planned and wouldn't accept any suggestions or demands of the fans or even supporters to go astray from the planned scenario, the way he has been doing so far.
I just thought that it would be interesting to see Bella's reaction and reactions of the people around her and Nika if her "wings got clipped" a bit.
And to make sure - I do like her. A lot. Definitely not a hater in any way. She'd be so cute riding that pink bicycle, all angry and pissed off and as explosive as a leaky stick of dynamite

I think Bella being like this makes her more attractive. Her change should be over time, not all at once. Somehow she sees the need to pretend because of her own past experiences. tbh she was really cute when she told her sister about Nika.

Why is there a request to reduce Bella's screen time but no similar request for Nami? From what I know, Nami actually has much more screen time than Bella.

That's not really true. Nami shares half of her scenes with Nojiko or others girls. Bella on the other hand has more solo scenes with the MC than all the other girls put together.

I've played multiple paths, including the decision to kiss Bella or not kiss her on the hilltop.

If the MC does not kiss Bella on the hilltop, her screen time gets cut dramatically.

There is no Bella rescue in the locker room and no goodbye prior to the weekend starting.

Yes - Bella and the MC will still have contact due to the Holgerson decision choice (if the MC decided to help Bella mess with the Holgersons) as well as the class project, but other major content in Ch 5 can also be skipped based on choices.

If the MC effectively breaks up with Bella when she offers a no strings attached relationship with the MC, then she does not come into his house for breakfast nor does she sleep with him.

If someone complains about a lot of Bella screen time while repeatedly making choices as the MC to move the Bella relationship forward, it should not be a shocker that she gets significantly more screen time due to those choices.

I am both a Bella and Zara fan and I am enjoying how Ocean is balancing LI screen time based on the choices I make for the MC.

Cheers and Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays to all!!

Very well said, and the same to you man.

I really wouldn't be surprised if Bella has an accident and we don't see her for a few chapters.

It's tag team, baby! Bella has an accident and slips into a coma at the exact same moment her sister wakes up and meets the MC for the first time. Her subconscious is already primed from all Bella's glowing verbal descriptions of the MC. /s (obviously)

Yeah, there's a few characters like that - their screen time and the flavor of the content depends on choices made while playing. Nami is another.

If anyone wants to get an idea, for shits-and-giggles, do a skipped playthrough rejecting all LIs and being an A-hole to everyone.

Echoing PaxHadrian17's sentiments, a Merry Christmas to ALL (SG lovers/haters, and those who just frequent the thread for casual amusement)

So, no threesome with two Bellas?
Heartbreaker! Life taker!

..don't put the thought into peoples minds!

Seeing it's Christmas and all, people gonna be asking Santa for a Von Halen foursome (also feat Amber), while Queen's 'I Want It All' plays in the background.

Why is there a request to reduce Bella's screen time but no similar request for Nami? From what I know, Nami actually has much more screen time than Bella. Some may argue that Nami is Nika's roommate, which is why she appears more frequently. However, considering Bella is Nika's project mate, wouldn't it be normal for Bella to have more screen time too?

Bella has had very little screen time in the previous two episodes. Despite this, I am surprised to see people still advocating for reducing her screen time.

Honestly I wouldn't mind one update without Bella and Nami. But it has to be without them even if you're on their paths. No flashbacks or other bullshit as well. I had two entire chapters without half of the LIs, it's only fair

NNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.....

Those updates take so many months, can't have an update without the best 2 girls...

This game, although it is S-TIER, has a big problem in my opinion - It has too many Main LIs (12); Ocean should have ended up with just 5 main girls:

• Bella
• Nami
• Mila
• Victoria
• Zara

I have nothing against the other girls who are considered main girls, but they should just be considered “Lewdable”. I have a hard time imagining that characters like Amber (my favorite), Nadia, Miss Marla, Sonya will appear in every episode from SEASON 2 onwards.

Bois, this dude wants to write Sasha out of the main girls. Have you sharpened your pitchforks yet? Why the damn Warscared was banned when the thread needs him!

My man, Sasha is the Ocean's favorite, at least that's what he said. I highly doubt he'll ever agree to reduce her role in the story, and I have a strong feeling we'll be seeing more of her than Bella in the future. Sonya is his former favorite and has been the cover face of the game for a long time. Good luck convincing Ocean to turn down her role of a LI. And don't even dare touch Amber, the perfect MILF ever made!

And honestly, what's the problem? According to the lamentations and preaching in this thread, Ocean will be making Summer's Gone for another 20-30 years. There is more than enough time for each of the main girls to shine.

I don't want to take anyone out of the plot. It's notable that Sasha has an importance in the plot, I never denied that. I just defended the idea that he should work with a smaller cast of main girls. (with Sasha or not)

Amber, too...lol, dumbest post I've seen in quite some time, and holy heck...this is F95 where dumb posts are the overwhelming majority in so many threads.

 

[saynotoNTR]

Either you guys ability to understand is extremely limited or you guys are just playing dumb. I don't want to convince Ocean to reduce the girls' screen time, what I really wish was that, before he released the first episode of Summer's Gone, he had in mind a small cast of main girls where he could work with them in every episode without any problems.

I don't want anyone to reduce the timescreen after we reach SEASON 2, on the contrary... I want characters like Amber to receive the same attention as Bella, Nami and others...

 

[jprotieg75]

Man I love Amber, sure am looking forward to the relationship with her!
