Ren'Py Summertime Saga [v21.0.0 wip.5091] [Kompas Productions]

[Count Morado]

The original argument (which I am arguing against) is that the game, in its english version, uses the word "college". And that this word can also mean middle school.

That was NOT the original argument. You jumped in mid-argument without knowing the terms of engagement. It has NOTHING to do with the term used in the game nor does the person who started the topic appear to have English as their first language - and thus could be using the cognate of the word in their first language, thinking it means exactly the same (whether it does or not have the same exact definition or is meaning a different level of education than what you are arguing).

This was the original argument:




And after this is where you jumped in:

Based upon Sir Anal's conversations, it appears that they may be Flemish, French, or Algerian.

Again, it has nothing to do with the game, hence why I have mentioned before this is an off-topic conversation. And does directly appear to have everything to do with someone (or more than one) who do not have English as their first language.

if in england it is perfectly reasonable to be 16 and in college, thats the normal age of starting college (at least for what "college" normally refers to)

I wasn't doubting their narrative. I was simply recounting the conversation as it stood.

I wasn't doubting them or their story. I was simply recounting the conversation as it stood.

(yes i thought so i was just clarifying as a TLDR for anyone interested and/or confused)

Here's the clip (I decided to pull it from the VOD when I read your post). Note his vision of 100, 200, 300 total characters in the game. There is no plan to end the development of this game at any foreseeable time.

View attachment 3896332

I included captions (ai created) for those who can read and kept the audio available for those who cannot (low res because of 10MB limit for attachments on F95, also audio is a bit muddied).

The new phone UI he's come up with looks really nice.

On the same stream, he replied to someone who asked about Debbie's art, saying that she was one of the oldest with 2-frame animation and that this would eventually change, he said "one thing at a time".
Shortly afterwards, he replied to someone who asked what was requested more, Debbie's pregnancy or the Odette/Grace threesome? Without hesitating, he said "Debbie's pregnancy, for sure". The Odette/Grace threesome is asked about once a month, while Debbie's is asked almost every day.

Dude, if people keep asking for Debbie that much, update her art!

I got no problem if the dev wants to add 300 characters to the game and shows the Mc full life actually sounds pretty rad, just no more useless tech updates that take years to Implement and require A complete do over, Other than that add as Much content you want. I dont think anyone would get mad if the Dev kept making new stories and characters, people would love that honestly lol. I think peope are just frustrated at how long the tech update took and the pay off being subpar, along with the missing feature. Did not make the best impression. Still I hope for the best, Even people that are mad dont want this game to actually fail, because at the end of the day people do like summertime saga

This clip is a great example of how his development process is always in flux.

By his own admission, he's not even on the same page as the others working with him, and you've shown several examples of areas he wants to change or update, even admitting he hasn't finalized how he'd like to implement them.

I honestly see him continuing to jump back and forth on pretty much every aspect of the process, trying to find what he envisions is the ideal set up.

Playing this game I prefer the content is not detailed

this is the reason half of the english language has words which seem similar to french or germanic languages. because english is LITERALLY the result of those languages (and some others) slowly integrating with one another over millenia. for example the words for "cow" and "beef" are different because the poor workers in the 12th century who looked after the cows called them cows but the rich french aristocrats who had just invaded the country called the meat "boeuf" which eventually got simplified to "beef", whereas most other languages call the meat and the animal of original the same thing or something similar to one another (if im remembering correctly)

If memory serves this is also the origin of doublets in English common law traditions. Will and testament.. breaking and entering..assault and battery..free and clear..part and parcel..the first word in the pair derives from French (the language of the ruling monarchs), and the second from English (the language of common hooligans). Decrees and proclamations and such would include both so that the aristocracy and peasantry alike could comprehend.

as for the answer to this, as a native english speaker living in england i have never heard of this happening though it wouldnt surprise me if somewhere people did call middle school "college". but generally the school system is described as:
"primary school" - ages 5 -> 11
"secondary school" (sometimes "high school") - ages 11 -> 16
and then you go onto EITHER:
"sixth form" (just 2 additional years of high school with different qualifications at the end)
OR:
"college" (same additional 2 years but standalone i.e. no high school on within the same campus/teaching environment etc, and "sixth form" equivalent qualifications at the end

(sixth form and college are equivalent to one another, just different environments. sixth form is more like high school, college is kind of half way between high school and university)

THEN:
"university" where you get undergraduate degrees and above so usually 18+

but there are THOUSANDS of dialects and subtle differences across the country so i wouldnt be surprised at all if the names vary to literally anything across the different parts of the country

Well, it simply is a false friend

Endless additions of new fuckables is kind of how I envisioned the game all along at this stage. The story of the game ended with the Russian mob arc imo. Just make it a parade of new conquests in quarterly DLC packs.

Judith mini route? Fine, I can can download this again after 5 years

He know that after updating Debbie, number of patreos will drop significantly. He is not stupid. Same with Mrs. Dewiitt which is the best among teachers, as you can see, she is in WIT wtih new update.

Had to check and yeah it's still in there.

The only option I have is "nevermind". I don't have an older save. So idk if it's reserved for when you're trying to win over Eve or you just max it out and can't do it anymore.

Honestly the most unrealistic part of the game. Big titty cow and vampire waifus? ok. Fighting underwater monster to get some mermaid puss? fair. Winning a rap battle against (not) Wiz Khalifa? No fucking chance.

It used to be for Charisma training, right?
So it's probably for when stats are important. Pretty sure you had to have a certain Charisma score in Roxxy's route, but I could be wrong.

Learning it as a foreign language in school, and having it as your country's main language, are two completely different things.
In france they speak french, everything is in french. English is used only for interacting with tourists

Ireland says hello. English is the dominant language there.

 

[The Black Cat]

Ireland says hello. English is the dominant language there.

Indeed... England dominated Ireland for centuries, they imposed their culture, customs and language. Thats why you talk that language and not the original celtic one.
France have their own native language, so its ok for them.
Anyway the universal language used is the english language, so its always good everybody know how to talk the "Westron/Aduni" of our world and time.

The dude argued that there's no country speaking English in the EU after Brexit. I just told him he's wrong.

The submissive and dominate shit with Jenny seems to mostly do nothing. Like these "routes" are so half assed that they're actually pointless.
