Ren'Py Summertime Saga [v21.0.0 wip.5605] [Kompas Productions]

[cimibibapa2]

Now, while monogamy is strictly a cultural phenomenon, I find your characterization of "women find it normal to be one of several wives or concubines" more than a little problematic. Women in cultures that have been traditionally polygamous, are also, with the exception of some tribal cultures, living in highly patriarchal cultures where most often patriarchy stems from a bullshit religious tradition that automatically assumes women to be second class and essentially property of men. So a statement that "women find it normal to be one of several wives" is just as problematic as claiming that women find it normal to wear a burkha in ISIS or in Iran. They've never had a choice in the matter in the first place. The fact that women in cultures that are traditionally polygamous, find it "normal" doesn't mean that it's because of their free will, but instead because of cultural and religious indoctrination, conditioning and oppression.

Personally, I really don't need DC introducing any cultural concept as backwards and idiotic as any of the more commonly known polygamous cultures or traditions to provide background to essentially fucking around. At the end of the day, we're talking about a game here, and to me a game that doesn't have any specific historical or cultural setting aside from generic western/north American town, doesn't need a cultural concept forced into it to justify the MC knocking up half the town.

Caught you few times arguing passionate against religion, stick with feminism, and he sticks with "patriarchy.

Let him have his believes and you have yours, chill dude.

Called education, helps with ignorance that informs some people to think that women in polygamous cultures " are totally ok with it". And should help see my point why I don't think that DC forcing a story around some cultural polygamy bs into SS to justify the MC banging half the town is worth it or needed in any way. For the record, I'm not "passionately" against religion. Couldn't care less what lunacy people are indoctrinated into believing, but I don't want it in my entertainment, and from the post I was replying to I understood that the poster was talking about wanting some religion based polygamy storyline forced into the game.

It's you're opinion and im fine with it, but it's not education.

Talked with women about that topic and i made the conclusion, some of them are cool with such concept & some are not.

It's not black or white in that case.

And I've explained previously why women are "cool with it". Because 9 times out of 10, they've got zero choice in the matter, and have been indoctrinated into believing that they're essentially second class. If someone is in a polyamourous relationship, or in a polygamous marriage with multiple spouses in a FREE society where it's not enforced by ignorance stemming from religion, then it's totally ok. And I seriously doubt that you've talked to any women from cultures that have cultural, religion based polygamy, since in those cultures no woman would speak to a man without either her husband or father giving the ok and that's not likely to happen. In any case, I'm not here to dispel anyone's ignorance but if you're interested in the topic I suggest you educate yourself with proper secular sources.

My point stands though, this game doesn't in my opinion need any storyline based in cultural or religious polygamy to justify the MC' relationships with multiple women, and at this stage in development to introduce a story like that into the game would just feel awkward and forced.

0.19: Eve, Grace and Odette. New male character Tukku.
0.20: Rump family, Maria and other.

Wonder what Tukku's deal is gonna be.

 

[JKH18]

Wonder what Tukku's deal is gonna be.

I've got a feeling he's based on a patron like that other guy, whose name I can't remember just now. I'm guessing he's a patron reward for someone winning a contest or something.

As someone who worked in a refugee camp in germany & russia i can tell you the families from eastern countries seemed happy to me. (especially the ones with poligamy involved)

At first glance such relationship is crazy for us westeners but i need to admit, it harmonize maybe even better than our concept of monogamy.


When it comes to summertime saga you get me wrong.

I think ss is okay how it is (when it comes to story), we don't need "eastern mentality" to be putted in this game.

But at the end dc decides what needs to be added into the game.

Probably being the whitest black guy in the room.

"Families from Eastern countries", nuff said. From countries where women have ZERO choice in the matter. In ANY matter. What you see is not consent, but obedience born out of indoctrination and institutionalized oppression, NOT free will. Having traveled in countries like Egypt, Palestine and Yemen, I've seen first hand how "ok" women are in their roles. Again, not out of consent, but obedience.
But enough of that, wrong place for education.

Yeah, but he will have a role. And I wonder what it is. Boyfriend of Eve's sister?
Eve's ex?
Something like that.

Yeah, but if he's a patron that won a contest, I don't think his role will be a major one. Bet he's more like the gay bloke in the cafeteria, only has a few conversations and that's it. I'm guessing anyways.

 

[dragonangel]

It's a fantasy sex game for adult only. Don't go too far in your reflexion.
It's only to fulfill somes phantasm. And it's healthier this way than many others.

 

[JKH18]

Did you even speak to the persons or was you there on vacation ?

I had contact to them for years.

What i can agree upon is, they have mostly clear role distribution.

Men is going to work and there wife is watching for there kids.

You can call it opression (i would not)


Everyone is indoctrinated in some form or another.

Feminism is indoctrination aswell & look what it's done to the western society.

Seriously, your ignorance is bleeding through pretty bad here. Sure, cultural indoctrination can happen in western countries as well, but we're talking about religious indoctrination, from childhood and reinforcing of said indoctrination constantly by oppressive laws stripping women of basic human rights. I'm not a feminist, but I can appreciate facts, for example speaking to women from "eastern" countries in a refugee camp simply can't provide you with an objective view on any topic when it comes to their cultural and religious background. By same standards, a cult member telling you how chemical castration is perfectly fine, would be acceptable.

In any case, this forum is the wrong place for these discussions, but I seriously recommend you study the topic from proper, secular unbiased sources. My whole point regarding this polygamy culture bullshit was, that it's got no place in this game, especially if it's forced into it this far into the development of the game.

Youre right this isn't the right place for such discussions.
If there is a plattform where you would continue this discussion let me know.

(sry for my bad english, it's not my native language but it gets better talking to people like you)

 

[PatreonTed]

It comes out on October 27th 23:00 UTC.

Or later.

Not even out of the realm of possibility that it comes out before.

Probably being the whitest black guy in the room.

It's a goth based update, he's clearly a dude from Finland who loves death metal.

Tukku or Tuuku or whatever his name was, sure sounds like a Finnish name

earns a lot of money but does little updating. See mrdotsgames is doing a good and fast update. this developer is probably very stingy. because he doesn't find his own teammate and doesn't update fast. this developer is seriously absorbing money.

Oh man, thank you so much for your brilliant insight. :O What a unique view, and opinion you have. Thank you so much for sharing this bit of wisdom with us all.

Ffs.

It's really curious that no one has noticed this before. I wonder why.

 

[DarkenedShadows]

Can't wait until we can impregnate even more people!! Also when the heck was the ability to have twins added?! How much moddability does this game have? I would love to have a mod to do more with the children or for them to grow up. (unfortunately I can not mod.)
