VN Ren'Py Where It All Began [Ch. 3 Full] [Oceanlab]

[BobTheDuck]

So essentially, if one wants to have a more complete experience with SG, he should dip his toes into WiaB?

100%. It's also (in my opinion) the better game. Don't get me wrong though, I enjoy both, and I see them as one game. I don't know if the goal is to have a subconscious thread that carries through both, currently if feels like the baton is handed on and SG is the story of the current generation.

Just to add to this:

The reason I find it interesting is that Donna is the FIRST person in the Oceanverse to get pregnant.

The cast were cloned by some evil scientist?

I know what you meant but it sounded a bit odd

Well, it's the far better story and to slightly correct Bob when he says this is set 20 years earlier than SG, I personally would reword it to that SG is set 20 years after this.

This story came first, was the first VN and was Ocean's first love. SG only got the love it got as for some reason, it's more financially viable/popular. But more popular does not always equate to better

Of course it is, it has Miru in it.
But seriously, I don't see why anyone would only play one of the games, they go together

Yeah, I realise after, considering some people's kinks, I shouldn't have said it like that either. More trying to point out 'Where it all began' in some cases is literally that.

Ok, I will give it a try. I played WiaB before it was reworked, it seemed pretty generic to me back then, might have changed though.

I've only played the new version, so can't comment on the old one. But I definitely like the current game.

Hope you like it too

I think you're in for a treat.

Daphne didn't exist in the first version. I have high hopes for her character/story arc. Even though Katie is my main focus, having to chose between her and Miru is now actually hard.

It's also overall, higher quality rendering than SG. The reason I say this, is Ocean's in effect learned from SG because he updated it more frequently, then applied what he learnt to WiaB. So it's visually consistent in a way the SG hasn't been and still isn't.

Yes, SG Mila models are very inconsistent, so this will not be the case with WiaB, thanks.

And don't turn the music off

This is one of only 3 VN's I actually listen to the music.

SG has very repetitive music, is it different in this one?

 

[Adhdclassic]

Just keep kitchen Mila the way she is.

The music is ok I liked the music that was in the first release before they changed it but its still pretty decent.

Everything is different and better here

 

[StingerWolf]

Everything is different and better here

Okok, I got fairly convinced, thanks guys!

 

[StingerWolf]

Will there be a Steam release of this too? Cause in all earnest, I am fairly disappointed, how SG turned out after Steam.

If i remember corectly there was something bout an Early Access release 2024.

Will be on Steam with the next update Early Access (Kind of forced with the Patreon page closure for this).

Can't he just redirect his patrons to SS? I'm not entirely sure what his plans for WiAB are storywise but I'm expecting the future themes here to be a little too risqué for a Steam release, no?

I'm still supporting creators on SS that had their games banned from F95 so we know they are a bit more relaxed than Patreon.
