Remember Nika got high on Gummies at Bellas.Abso-fucking-lutely no chance! None whatso-fucking-ever!
Ocean had his chance to tell a darker story and he utterly backtracked. This could have been an engaging story about someone lost in a very dark place due to some very traumatic events that slowly crawls back into the light. Could have delved into subjects like suicide, death, psychopathy etc... Instead we have the story of a weird dude that's kind of a prick and suffers from mild anxiety because his teen crush moved out of town a few years ago.
This story is so ludicrously sanitized you can barely argue with a straight face that is directed at an adult audience. This is dating sim level shit. This is teen romance novel type shit. Straight up. The lack of mature themes in SG is about as inconspicuous as a naked 300 pound man dancing in front of your eyes. Besides the nudity what do you have?
- Drugs? No.
- Violence? No.
- Sex? Fucking LOL
- Smoking? Wasn't the smoking lady in the café cinematic removed too?
- Guns? That's gone. Unless you count Bella's lighter.
- Sexual harrassment? Only if the victim is male, cuz that's funny. The other way around it would be a nono for publishers.
- Strong or offensive language? Only if you think "cunt" or "fuck"crosses a line you soy fuck.
Bottom line? SG is as vanilla and mainstream as vanilla and mainstream get. It won't get darker than you've already seen. If you want a more mature story try the Twilight Saga. Play the original Life is Strange.
I agree with you on WiAB though. That should be a more grown up story but still very mild considering it's going to Steam.
I get what you're saying but I think he's doing fine and will keep doing fine. There are plenty of creators focused on fully vanilla content that do very well. MrDots for example.If it really is as you say and he does not intend to go into darker tones in the future, focusing on, as you say, Steam mainstream vanilla experience. In my opinion, he is mercilessly overestimating the marketing reach of his games. What is he counting on? AVN is and will be a complete niche in the video game market from what I have seen, the most reviews that AVN game has on Steam is Fresh Woman with 15,000, what mainstream is he aiming at? Unless he dreams that his game will be some kind of breakthrough, the first game of this type that will really break through and become recognizable on a larger scale. It would make more sense not to impose any restrictions, aiming at a non-existent mainstream audience, but to do everything to make his game unique and offer an experience that you will not find in any other game of this type, focusing on its true audience of fans of the niche genre that is AVN
Technically right but...I mean...THC gummy bears? Really? No "hardcore drugs" then.Remember Nika got high on Gummies at Bellas.
Also technically correct but...c'mon guys. That's hardly "violence". That type of content could feature in a kids schoolbook. Or am I just super desensitized? A scuffle with a couple of thrown punches and a hugging session with Bella is hardly what I'd classify as "violent" but ok. I'm not dying on this hillViolence is there too, Bella attacks Nika when he asks her about her sister and there's the fight with Zac?, I can't remember his name, the guy who likes Nami, when Nika ends up with a black eye.
I don't think so, WiaB seems the darker story out of the two. As I said I don't think that SG will be light but lighter, ultimately SG has a hopeful tone where WiaB does not. SG does seems to be a much more character driven story where WiaB is less so, so maybe we will have more personal drama in SG. About Summers dream, can't say I have seen Lynchs movies, but while it has its narratives purposes, I always have a feeling that the dream is not entirely true, like is a idealized version of what happened. Defoe with BIG TITTS.I have a feeling that Summer's Gone may turn out to be darker as a whole, but the path of the protoganist will be lighter and vice versa in WIAB the whole story will be lighter but William will sink into a darker path. In WIAB the entire burden rests on the street gangster drama for now, in SG there are more personal dramas happening in the privacy of homes and from the very beginning of the game and the dream with Summer I have similar feelings known from Lynch's films, a feeling that something is very wrong but I can't fully describe it. Apparently these psychedelic flowers have messed with my head so much and the appearance of a classic Willem Dafoe character in the form of Officer Cerill didn't help
While I agree, I think it has space to explore darker themes. Not that it will necessarily become a dark story, this sheep has sale, but I don't think it needs to stay teen romance, it can have more depth than that. At least I hope it will.Abso-fucking-lutely no chance! None whatso-fucking-ever!

I just hope there will be more fights in the future, I'm looking forward to beating the white and blonde version of p.diddy.Also technically correct but...c'mon guys. That's hardly "violence".

Don't think that we will gonna get much more fight, Nika seems to favor mind games. Also I kinda like Dwight, he as a vibe of charismatic douche.I just hope there will be more fights in the future, I'm looking forward to beating the white and blonde version of p.diddy.

who knows, maybe if Nika makes the first team, he'll get his own "place of business" office on campus all without ever showing his face even once...oh wait..different basketball AVNIt's a miracle that the college hasn't been shut down, porn logic I guess. Let's see: animal experiments, several cases of male and female professors having sex with students, the first women's basketball team bribing the principal with naughty pictures and probably sexual favors. Yeah, it looks like it's all good.![]()
That's Sai.Drugs are there, Sasha gives Nika a pill in chapter 5.
Violence is there too, Bella attacks Nika when he asks her about her sister and there's the fight with Zac?, I can't remember his name, the guy who likes Nami, when Nika ends up with a black eye.
We don't know, the suspicion is there might be, but all we know in WiaB was she had a girlfriend, and a massive sideserving of unfulfilled lust for William.Curious is Katie a MILF who is her kid?
You're right, there's nothing shocking. Having said that, there's nothing shocking in WiaB either. The jam on the arm for Nika's wound in the violent incident, Vic's blood that looks just like, I don't know? Dirt? The Seigbert bloodless scratches.I get what you're saying but I think he's doing fine and will keep doing fine. There are plenty of creators focused on fully vanilla content that do very well. MrDots for example.
All I'm saying is Ocean clearly picked a lane and will most likely stick to it. So we should manage our expectations accordingly

A man can only dream, well at least the lessons of fighting with ayua remain. As for Dwight, the guy plays his asshole role perfectly, the only problem I have with him are those weird tendencies he has and the groping.Don't think that we will gonna get much more fight, Nika seems to favor mind games. Also I kinda like Dwight, he as a vibe of charismatic douche.
That is if this guy is still talking about taxes in 2027.It turns out that normal-sized chapters should take him about half a year, so the full completion of the second season is mid-2027. At this rate, it will take 14-16 years to release all the planned chapters, requiring three years to produce the season
Wanna pull off an inception and tell him? Nah, it still wouldn't change his mind, would it?But it would still be better if he divided this chapter into two parts.
I disagree I really like those cinematics. Especially when there's Bella in it. Heheheanimation, cinematics' are both a waste of render time in my opinion. Not like you really get any sense of reality from them. A rich story and some awesome still's are all that is needed.
it seems like a cult. Many there love Ocean. He can do whatever he wants about the game, delay updates or increase the value of the Patreon at the game's launch and they will accept it like little bitches.
This is illegal. Shut up!doesn't mean I can't share my opinion!
Because a certain iDIOT! thought doing this would make him give us more Sasha!Why is it soo hard for him to give some sasha renders?![]()
Inception-schmenception, people are telling him this on Discord. I guess he thinks this is the best way to break in the new season and make SG adult again.Wanna pull off an inception and tell him?
I think that´s true and it´s been discussed here sometimes, Ocean doesn´t listen to anyone, if you go and tell him as a Patreon that you don´t like how he changes the body shapes of characters he just say that this is his game and if you don´t like you can go, and he is right too.He can do whatever he wants about the game, delay updates or increase the value of the Patreon at the game's launch and they will accept it like little bitches.
What about Greig Fraser? I think he is fucking good too. And is Australian too, how curious.there is a reason that Christopher Doyle is perhaps the most sought after cinematographer in the film industry (to give a clue, it's not because it brings nothing to a film).
The college of my dreamsIt's a miracle that the college hasn't been shut down, porn logic I guess. Let's see: animal experiments, several cases of male and female professors having sex with students, the first women's basketball team bribing the principal with naughty pictures and probably sexual favors.
