I finally managed to finish game after steam release and I don't understand that shit some people are writing here. so much hate for nothing
rework is awesome
They are just as bad.
I think they like the game too much to go looking elsewhere for something that can come close to this game. Just an assumption, of course.Don’t like the MC, lack of sex or pace? Look elsewhere and find something more appealing to you.
Bella took me 2 playthroughs to love. Difference for me tho is did like alot her on my first PT but other characters were either tied or closely behind being better than her to me. I didn't love her till my 2nd now she is in my top 3 LI before she was sitting around top 30 - 50. Paying closer attention to the cinematics kind of made me see her in a new light.I remember not liking it much besides the dark stuff, didn't really pay attention (just wanted to do as much bad shit as I could) hated Bella with all my guts, hated being forced to be around her etc but after not playing the game for a year or so+ and playing the Steam version... now I love it and Bella![]()
There might be hope for you yet.I think they like the game too much to go looking elsewhere for something that can come close to this game. Just an assumption, of course.

After buying/playing a game like "Vaygren - Lustful Temptation" where the whole game is mostly animated, knowing it took them "years" to work on it and release it, I can appreciate Ocean's cinematics a bit more. I used to skip them before but didn't skip one with the Steam version.
Obviously, the music transitions going into and out of a cinematic definitely needs to be worked on a bit more. It like, plays a different song than what was currently playing or the song changes right after the cinematic finishes lol. It does bring the game/characters to life more and makes it more impactful, especially with the music that is chosen (like if you see Nami crying in a cinematic and the music is sad-ish etc)
I was in a different mindset before (with time things changed) and after checking stuff out I used to bash or talked shit about (not everything, just some) I now find myself liking this game very much, loving it even. I am sorry to Ocean and to the game for my past complaints and shittery. Just saying that I want to apologize for hating on the game and for not really giving it a chance.
Definitely loving the story flow and the choices you get. I think the choices pop up at the right/interesting times. I will definitely be playing this a few more times afterwards. Some choices I'd like to see play out lol.
Every lewd scene (nude boobs/ass) were used decently. Well, more ass is welcomed lol. They had their reasons for being in the game and not just cause. Kind of worried how things will be once Season 2 comes out.... for now, loving how everything is.
Made it to Chapter 4. I did make out with Bella.
I don't think that's true. At least not for most. In my case I like this thread A LOT MORE than I like the game. I like the discussion, I like the pace at which the thread moves. It's almost always fresh but easy to keep up with. Then there is the nostalgia of when SG used to be my favorite game.I think they like the game too much to go looking elsewhere for something that can come close to this game. Just an assumption, of course.
Yes. Seems that's what caused these problems..You installed the incest patch, right?
No. Wait for it to be updated or don't use it.Yes. Seems that's what caused these problems..
Is there any solution besides removing the patch?
I get that you got ticked off by my comment. It's ok. I merely used your comment to make a point. Had you been less of a self righteous prick I would have let it slide. Suck it up buttercup.I think I'm gonna start my own list with useless comment accounts![]()
That is called feedback. Make good product = get good feedback. Make less good product = get less good feedback. Get it? No one has been telling "haters" anything. Opinions are subjective. And this is a public forum for discussion. All opinions in good faith are valid and should be respected whether they coincide with yours or not.This thread has been non-stop negativity since the release with hundreds of annoying, dumb comments. Only the past few days things have gotten better, cause people have been telling the haters they were wrong.
Good! That's how it should be. And I have been "dealing with it" for years buddy. Not daysAs long as those comments pop up you'll see another comment that praises the game like mine, whether they're from <10 comment accounts or not. Deal with it.
It's in the game folder with the game.Guys where is the "DLC" part that its in the notes?
Thank you!! More than just the relationships and scenes, even common dialogue is changed.. so freaking annoying.OK, since the infamous patch was nowhere near getting updated for the final Season 1 release (and I have a feeling somehow it won't be released by the same source as before, given the Patreon politics), I've tasked myself with creating it. Well, updating it for the final release...
Here's the i-patch for the current Steam release. Should work fine with the Patreon build as well since they're identical.
The patch is compatible with Steam achievements.
I took the exact same approach as with previous versions of the patch, just unzip the attached and drop the "patchSG.rpy" file into the "game" directory of your SG folder. Don't change the filename!
Upon first launch the game will recreate the compiled "patchSG.rpyc" companion file.
Dialog changes come from the previous patch released for Chapter 5 beta, slightly amended when necessary to fit the updated Season 1 original dialogs. I did fix a few lines (just basic mistypes) from the Season 1 release as well.
But there's more. As you know a lot of further censoring went into the Season 1 release. Ocean cut a few risky renders, toned down some of the dialogue. And while he removed many of the assets cut from the game, a very small number of them were left in. So I've reenabled them with this patch and also restored some of the more spicy dialog (when it made sense, while keeping it balanced).
But please note : this is NOT an "uncensor" mod! The restored shots are part of larger scenes and are just additional shots. They wouldn't change your perception of the scene. It just felt like unnecessary edits on Ocean's part. I've attached a couple of them to this post. There are more drastic cuts which will be addressed with a full "uncensor" mod with i-patch, to be released by myself as well in the next couple of days, once testing is completed.
Tested this patch on a brand new Steam download of the game, on MacOS. Should work fine with Windows/Linux as well. I've tested several paths and did a few saves and loads with no issues. Your previous saves might not work with it though.
Please report if you find issues with it...
My thanks to scrappy for releasing an update of his Walkthrough/cheat mod which inspired me to revisit the patch.
Would appreciate if a mod could update the 1st post with this patch...
I hope I didn't mislead you, the dialog in my patch is still very much that of the Season 1 Steam release. I did change a few lines there and there but overall I'd say that 95% is still the same...in the scene you're referring to, I didn't revert the dialog back. I felt like the final release is what Ocean intended in the end so didn't want to change it too much.Thank you!! More than just the relationships and scenes, even common dialogue is changed.. so freaking annoying.
For example, the way Bella refers to the Barbershop with Emilio makes fun of her. Uncensored version used what today is considered more aggressive word, but really makes sense for her personality.
Ohh oh well...I hope I didn't mislead you, the dialog in my patch is still very much that of the Season 1 Steam release. I did change a few lines there and there but overall I'd say that 95% is still the same...in the scene you're referring to, I didn't revert the dialog back.
WOW thank you very much. I will wai for the uncenored one. You are doing a great job XDOK, since the infamous patch was nowhere near getting updated for the final Season 1 release (and I have a feeling somehow it won't be released by the same source as before, given the Patreon politics), I've tasked myself with creating it.

As I am probably someone who gets accused of as being one of Ocean's dickriders fairly regularly simply because I enjoy this game, I can say the difference is your zealousness. Just like, Nami, lower your stance a little. Maybe a little bit more. Posters like RNasc4444 and I disagree often but we've learned to respect each others opinions. There is no canon opinion, and no points awarded for zealotry. Maviarab (despite what trolls think) is pretty even minded about the whole thing - people who waste time with one liners are likely to get a one line response.I followed the whole thing. You made your fair share of comments blasting the haters and poking fun at them, more than anybody… What’s different now?
This is better, you are articulating. Try not to demonise people or typecast them and you'll be fine. Or do you. I like that you enjoy the game and are passionate about it - talk about what you, personally enjoy, more than why others personally hate.Your comment was anything but innocent, so you’re gonna get the same treatment back, my dude.
That’s hardly feedback. All the haters did was say the game sucks cause there’s no sex and a couple tits were removed (the horror!), the protagonist sucks cause he’s a “sad emo” with a serial killer vibe (not anymore), the story sucks cause it’s heading nowhere. They crowded the thread with their nonsense instead or bringing good arguments to the table and got rightfully shunned time and time again. There were only a few decent, civil comments among those who expressed dislike for the game. People can do it, but they should back up their own words.
That’s the whole point, they were nothing but opinions..
Sincerely, thank you for doing this for the community, and thank you for being careful only to change what you felt would have been changed via the old patch. It's great to see people make such an effort. I decided on this release I'll play without patches, but you've helped a lot of people with this.I hope I didn't mislead you, the dialog in my patch is still very much that of the Season 1 Steam release. I did change a few lines there and there but overall I'd say that 95% is still the same...in the scene you're referring to, I didn't revert the dialog back.

No. On the contrary, some scenes were cut out and others censored.Does this version not offer anything new?
