I really love the speculating and the conversations about some of the mysteries purposely planted by Ocean for us, but he's already confirmed Sasha not being Summer. It's been brought up dozens of times before, but he has shot down that possibility in his discord server. Do continue speculating though, as there are many more little things here and there left for us to analyze:giggle:

Edit: This does not mean that she's unrelated to Summer(as a character). That much, I think we can confirm. I think it's quite possible that she is connected to Summer, albeit in ways we have yet to understand.

Of course, I agree with you. I don't read threads myself very often, rather, I just sometimes write my thoughts about and without and sometimes reply to replies to my messages)
But yes, I already realized for myself that Sasha is not Summer, but I still wanted to write my thoughts about all this)
Anyway, Summer is an incredible outsider for me at the moment, even if, purely hypothetically, she suddenly appears, I don't think I can experience any positive feelings at this moment.
The guy has already suffered enough because of her, and as for me it's time to move on and do not give a damn about her reasons.
Honestly, it will even be much more painful if she suddenly appears with her husband or boyfriend from another country or where she disappeared there. (God forbid, this part of my message will be seen by Ocean)
I would personally lynch her for such a thing at the moment. Better not to show up at all.

Does anybody here know if there will be Amber (Bella's mom) path in the game? While the LI so far are really nice storywise, they don't interest me in that way. Besides Bella of course. She is a S tier waifu. Victoria and Mila just don't attract me physically. Nami definitely is hot but I'm just not into the whole bro/sis (or son/mom or dad/daughter for the fact) incest stuff. Incest needs to be very specific to pique my interest. I try to avoid her as much as possible because being nice to her always ends up in a lewd situation. Hell, even while avoiding her you still end up hugging her while she is bare-breasted. I really don't get why these types of scenes are not fully avoidable when incest isn't the sole focus of your game. I'm not judging anyone who is into that. Just give us people who aren't into it an option. But enough about that. Is there going to be an Amber path? I wouldn't mind a Sasha or Zara path either. Besides Bella, these three definitely are my favorites.

Ya it sounds like Amber is a confirmed official LI from some earlier posts in this thread. Great taste my friend. :)

Thanks for that, had not seen that, so it's good to know that one is not possible if already officially debunked by the man himself.

I’ll tell you even more about my thoughts about Sasha and all my suspicions. I did not mention this in that message, because I just forgot to finish writing about it, so I have already edited that post 4 times.
All the time I wondered why Sasha was staring so openly at MC ... This was even mentioned in the thoughts of the hero himself, they say "looks straight into the soul", etc. This also aroused great interest in me, she really is not verbose, but the look is awfully suspicious.
And just in part 3.5 there was a moment with a smiling magnet (???) (I'm just not sure what it is, it seems like it looks like a magnet)
It was very strange for me when the MC shuddered and threw this magnet into the air, Sasha noticed this and even focused attention on her at that moment, something like the approach of the camera. This also gave me a strange feeling.
And when MC returned from the rest room again, her look was strange as for me.

I’m most likely winding myself up a lot, but on the other hand, such moments often simply cannot escape my eyes, I don’t know why.
Really damn it, this is the first game that gives me such emotions and interest, sort of like trying to become a detective for myself.

A very important addition to my words in general (I think this is important).
In the first time, after going through the game and writing a couple of good words about it, in that message I focused not on the plot, but more on working with the camera, lighting and musical accompaniment. So this is where I am leading this. Camera work. It’s just a hell of a job done, and it seems to me that all this was done not only for the sake of simple praise.
Maybe, just maybe ... There is a hidden meaning in the camera's operation.

But what can I say in the end about this issue and suspicions towards Sasha.
If we speak purely for the appearance, the face at least, they are different. The iris of the eyes is different, in addition, Sasha has no moles on her face at all. Of course, as I heard, you can remove them with the help of an operation, but why would Summer suddenly need it?

If sasha was summer it will be easier way to attach MC with summer again with no sudden appearance and consequences,I initially believed she was summer but no I don't think she is and that was supposed to be eraser isn't it?

Because no one has reported those games. But all it takes is one pissed off person to report it & Patreon will suspend the devs page, because anyone looking at the code will see taboo stuff is included within the Patreon release & is just hidden by variables.

Summer's Gone has no incest in the main release code. Hence no problems if Patreon looks at it. As long as there's a clear distinction between the dev and the 'evil modder' Patreon has no evidence the taboo stuff has anything to do with the dev.

Yeah, I've seen cases where the patch merely changes the variable "Incest" to "true." Fortunately, Patreon doesn't comb through the code, but it does make it pretty indefensible if investigated. "But that variable was already in the code I copy and pasted--I didn't realize what it was there for. Really!"

I know you put it in quotations. And understand what you are saying. But you don't have sex accidentally. You both agree to it, Or it's gonna fall in the rape category

Another point it's mostly the porn industry who popularized incest. With the step bro step sis and mom stuff. If you just browse PH you get wacked with all the incest stuff

I see (step) incest and school stories are shortcuts. It allows one to put a number of potential partners "confined" under one roof without having to deal why they met or dating or any other normal aspect of relationships. They also come with built-in taboo power differentials.

She is a Love Interest. I do not recall where or when, but I do recall seeing a post in this very thread, along with the discord, about Amber being a LI. I do applaud those capable of ignoring Bella for her mother though. I'm really curious as to how that story will turn out. I'm also interested in what role she will play in MC and Bella's current love story. Two mentally unstable teenagers becoming romantically involved with each other... I'm really interested in how Amber, the psychologist, will handle such a situation.

If I remember correctly, Ocean said at first Amber was just a side character, but she got promoted to a semi-main character. She will play a big role in unveiling Summer’s disappearance and the success in the therapy sessions will be a game-changing point. And yes there is a path for her.

I always thought Amber was going to play a big part, just because she's just as capable, if not more, of attracting men with her full-blown female beauty. His daughter has to worry about it when I see the MC casually lying in his arms during his psychotherapy sessions ... and I'm very happy because I don't like Bella :mad: !

This game until now remains a mystery and therefore open to all kinds of supposition.

Summer's gone, however, in my opinion it has only two possible interpretations / ramifications:
1) he's gone and won't come back in the sense that the love story with MC is over;
2) she left and then returned through numerous love conflicts with MC.

I don't know which one to choose and if so I would play both choices, I am convinced, at least I hope so, that in any case the game continues to be as compelling as it has been until now.

There are a lot of characters that I like, including Bella, and some that aren't defined (Sasha).
Everything will depend on how ocean has decided / will decide the story.

May be. I thought at that moment (until I was finally convinced for myself that Sasha was not Summer) that hypothetically it could be like this: Summer in some unknown way, after her disappearance, received a scar and lost her memory, as a result of which she became Sasha for some reason (maybe someone found her and left to live with him as a daughter, something like that). Well, further it would be possible to build theories, but again it comes down to the fact that Summer had moles on her face, and not one, but Sasha's face is as clean as a baby's bottom, of course, except for the scar.
By the way, this could well explain her look at the main character, that he seems to her like an incredibly familiar person and causes very warm feelings in her, but she is afraid to talk about it. The dialogue about earrings with Nami could also explain. Well, the reaction to a smiling magnet too.
But this is just a theory and it is already all broken, so never mind)
