Been forever since I DL'd this, but just now starting to play it. DL'd the WT and it's IC patch. With it, how are they related? The MC says his parents died when he was three. So is Nami like an adopted sister or something? Just like to understand what how this is supposed to be set up. Thanks!

Relationships in this game are fluid. Have been so for a while. What is factual today may turn out to be a mere figment of your imagination tomorrow. My advice is go with what makes sense to you. Just don't get too attached because it's only a matter of time until the dev decides to change things again.

Actually don't get too attached to the story either. There is nothing that doesn't get dramatically altered every few updates. The Frohn sisters were once not sisters but seem to be back to it now. Nojiko's had a couple of last names already, I'm not sure which one we're on now. The MC and Nami...well the story was written one way but then publishers and music rights holders weren't too keen on that so now...well who knows? Some of the ladies may or not be shapeshifters as their bodies, faces or hair changes constantly. Sometimes from render to render. Don't worry you'll get used to it

I hope you are a creative person or have some imagination, enough to make up your own head canon that makes the narrative make sense. Otherwise, there's confusing times ahead for ya...

Sorry but this would not stop anyone prople love HOT crazy mean diva psychos like bella ....PEOPLE love prom queens and prople would stick dick in crazy espacilly guys that would love woman like bella ...

Dont get me wrong I like the game and bella is one of the most beautiful woman I saw in VN and her relationship/ romance build up is INSANLY good for VN....

But where it all began will have more gangs,darker thems and also more adult story with more competition / path you dont always know if you win or come out alive

If SG follows more a Bdik logic which I guess it will alot of things will become more unrealistic immersive wise because you already know MC will win and that you can pick any scenario and come out as winner....

Which makes the story not as exicting like other games with harem logic( not harem games but simmular logic) its like reading song of ice and fire but you already know nobody is dying and what will happen

So I personally prefer the WIAB approche were you have more drama ,more male cheracters , who to trust? Who are you enemys ? Different path like bad endings and good engings .... you need to be careful around other gang members outplay them and carefully pick you answers.... it will have more unespected stuff happening and I like the tension of jeliousy/ competition......

But we will see how SG will turn out hope I am wrong

But still love bella and her amazing relationship build up hope she dont turns soft ..like her mean / bitchy/banter site

I understand where you are coming from. I don't think that SG will became as dark as WIAB, but this is not at all as not have consequences for action, we already have a little of that. Ocean does not like harem so I would not worry about it, so far as competitions for the girls go, SG will not have NTR but Ocean did say that it will have a MMF throuple so maybe some of the competitive aspect can be expected. Still is early to tell, I am a little more invested in WIAB but I think that when SG plot stars to pick up we will have a as good of story

 

[yossa999]

Yeah... The only Island of Stability in this Ocean of Constant Change is that Sasha is Summer.

 

[Talmadge]

I, for one, don't care if male NPC's have relations with some of the girls. Or, at least, a past with them. It makes it seem more real. Maybe you can get with the women. Maybe you can't. Or won't. Depends on you're preferences. So far, I'm liking what is going on. The MC just got told he has to go to see a therapist. So not very far in yet, I guess.

You're right

Hey I know I sound like a broken record to the usual crowd here but in my defense, my complaints remain relevant and there's always new folk to the thread and to the game that should be prepared for the shitshow we've all grown accustomed to

Also you don't see me bashing your Katie spam in the other thread you dirty simp! Leave me be

 

[Ray_D]

Yeah... The only Island of Stability in this Ocean of Constant Change is that Sasha is Summer.

Someday we will find out the truth. I think so...

And yet here we all are still We're all totally into denial and blue ball fetishes here.* In fact there are some users who are so in denial, they deny their denial and they're still here. I get hopeful and euphoric on a lack of essential oxygen maybe?

*Currently holding my excited breath for S2C1, I think my feet are tingling with blueness also! Time for a coffeeso I can make Nami faces

 

[Adhdclassic]

2scenes in the preview of steam season 1. I hope makes it in 2. Scene where Mila has a bruise on her collar and Victoria is in the hospital bed. Victoria one I thought was going to be in season 1 after the accident which would have made sense. But I wonder if it is a scene from a future surgery. But something tells me it's just something put in the preview for viewing only it has no future in the series.

I'm certainly not in denial at least, I love this game thus far. But, The inconsistencies are kind of hard to fully ignore. Then again, I'm a newcomer to this game and thread. So that may be why I'm not in denial, unlike some of you crazy's . I say that with full love, mind you

Why do you believe that ? I'm genuinely wondering.

I think there will be consequences, maybe not as full blown as WiaB, but it won't be a walk in the park. We've already seen Bella drive into a pedestrian, not that different from Marla hitting Vic really, except Bella has no remorse. Ocean's said that jealousy will affect throuples, so throuples will be incredibly challenging for the player to keep. This will mean more consequences of loss. We've already seen that Nika's actions do lead to immediate changes in the way people react to him, such as the reporter, going to the gym etc. So there is already a mechanism/tracker that makes sure there are consequences.

I feel the Zane drama stuff will be lurking in the background, and the focus will be on Nika. I don't think it will continue directly the 'action' part of the WiaB plot, but we will see the consequences of what happened there. I think Nika's dramas will be mainly in response to his actions and to Summer. Summer's the wildcard, as her story changes the whole premise of what story Ocean's telling - ie if she reappears and pretends the last 5 years didn't happen, Ocean's making a pretty much cookie cutter college game plot wise (that I'll still enjoy), or there's some nefarious business tied to WiaB (my preference) that results in Summer being gone. It all hinges on what direction Ocean takes Summer being gone. While it remains a mystery, we create all kinds of weird wonderful plots that make the game lively in our mind, but at some point, Ocean will clarify something (personal preference is to leave things hinted at).

As far as male characters, SG already has more than WiaB. Stefan, Mario, Antony, Mr Stahl, Jeff, Trey, Damian, Sai, Sai's friends, Kai, Jazz, Dex, Aziz, Dwight, Larry, Jake, Nick, Bella's racing friends (who'll make a reappearance and look set to through in some conflict in the romance)... there's a ton. Wiab, we have Dylan, Sven, Stefan, Lucas, Fred, Ben, Dana's unseen Martin, Gina's unseen Gary? ANd then background workers. I think what you mean is more men who have interest in LI's though. The racing bros seem to act like competition to Nika, so chances are there will be some fights. Can't have AYua train him without there being some ass whooping. Sai is still gunning for Nami I guess, and Nick's taking care of Noji. Once we start interacting with the basketball side of things more seiously, once Nika starts making more social visits outside of people's homes (such as gyms, bars etc) I think we'll start getting more tension. There's the way he acted with Justin in the library, Kai and Sai, and Mila's bullies, suggesting Nika's temper will play a part in the game.

Plenty of drama, plenty of jealousy, probably not fullblown like in WiaB, but we can play WiaB for that kind of content.

Edit: Also, consider that for Vanessa to be a LI, Nika either HAS to cuck Mario or steal Vanessa from him, and Vanessa's already shown that she'll do a striptease. She's unlikely to be faithful and do an honourable breakup first. Sai got in a fight with Nika because he sees Nika as a rival for Nami. There will be things.

2scenes in the preview of steam season 1. I hope makes it in 2. Scene where Mila has a bruise on her collar and Victoria is in the hospital bed. Victoria one I thought was going to be in season 1 after the accident which would have made sense. But I wonder if it is a scene from a future surgery. But something tells me it's just something put in the preview for viewing only it has no future in the series.

Most likely. They might have been part of longer animations that Ocean intended to be in Season 1 but got scrapped when music licenses fell through and he couldn't find music he liked. There's also the Sonya scene of her dressing, that's definitely not anywhere near Season 1, so there's always a chance. My belief is that the first two were intended to be in season one - imagine seeing that scene with Maja as Nika and Nami leave, or Mila revealing the bruise when she arrives at Nick's place. Sonya's animation has nowhere to go in S1 unless it was in the locker room.

Again I like the game

hope prople dont understand it wrong but alot/ almost all big VN I tried to play try to Make a save space in erotic VN like it dosent matter which options you choose there will always be another hot female woman waiting for MC 8 inch throbbing cock male cheracters? Comprtition well just dont exist like partys full of females or just a full female college?? Personalities with different female cheracters like the typical slutty cheerleader queen all the sudden got her experince over night and also only acts slutty with mc or changer her whole personalitie .... and so on you get the picture...

The problem from a storytelling perspective is the unexpected stuff and (losing) the reason why game of thrones was so exiting for example red weeding was fucked up but I was never expecting it to happen ,same with competition,deaths....
You alwayd sit infront of tv and tremble from exitment not knowing what will happrn and VN just dont catch this felling

Becauae they center too much around MC and save space for the erotic player that dont want to (lose) the problem with this approch is that we will never see a VN with a good story this way ....

thats why I think all this things are important .....
