VN Ren'Py Where It All Began [S1 Ch.4 Fix 1 Steam] [Oceanlab]

[Jacowboy]

The reason why I'm even mentioning it is that I have had two bluescreens in the past 3 weeks, and twice my Workstation didn't start.

Well thank fuckin god, I was afraid he'd never talk to us about his fuckin' workstation ever again... Now, when is tax season again?

 

[sorco2003]

Very well, for all those who are going to complain about the time that has passed since the last up date, please do not be lazy and at least verify how much time has passed, with these errors only show that they do not follow the game...

1 year 4 months and 21 days!

I'm full of questions. The game is currently on Ch3. It will launch on Steam and GOG as Season 1. Here they are talking about it as Ch4... So what will the Steam and GOG versions contain now?

It will not launch as Season 1 afaik. it will be chapter 4. It will launch as early access. S1 will be 6 or 7 chapters.

What we are getting will be Chapters 1-4 and I believe season 1 is supposed to cover 8 chapters though that is subject to change over time.

Um.....isn't it suppose to be out by then?

Guys, any idea why Dev isn't creating a new Patreon page for WIAB?
Is it because he doesn't want to because he can't

I'm pretty sure it's because he can't.

do u know why?

Old WiaB had incest. Patreon doesn't like incest and will shut down accounts over it. Ocean ran two Patreons, one for WiaB and one for Summer's Gone. If he attempted to start another Patreon and they crack down on him again, it's possible it could affect Summer's Gone, which is his cash cow. Easier to pivot away from Patreon and try to find other income sources (Subscribestar, Itch, Steam, etc).

New WiaB is in a weird grey area where I think we're about to lose the incest completely but it will be a messy explanation. I could be wrong about that though, I don't really stay on top of things like I used to. Theoretically, if it had no incest, he could try again possibly but probably won't do anything that could result in him losing SG's patreon.

I'm more interested in what happened to his plans to create his own website with the possibility of donation. I look at the developer "OppaiMan", he doesn't care about the rules of the patron, he has his own website with his own universe of games.

In some fairness Oppaiman is a team now and Ocean is just Ocean.

I just think it was worth spending $10,000 not on music that will be deleted soon, but to take care of financial stability)

Because he reminds me of me, when I was a kid, I got money, I'm going to buy a 3090 and that's it, I don't have any money)) It doesn't matter that everything else is missing

Oppaiman site is still backed by Patreon, you have to have a Patreon account to buy anything from Oppaiman and pay through Patreon's system...

Yes, it's strange, there are incest games there, or there were Life in Santa County, for example, now there are tenants everywhere with landlords..

I think that's on you. All the lewd scenes in the gallery are unlocked for me, and I don't use any mods or unlockers.

Having said that, I agree that the gallery is a mess. Inconsistent UI. "Return" buttons that don't work. And just a generally poor design that screams "I'm trying too hard to look different and cool but I'm failing miserably".

I don't think so. The CG replay gallery for Miru and MC in the bar. I've done all variations for that multiple times. It remains blurred (unlocked) and says "Play dart and drink". It's where Miru and MC lose and lift their shirts. It just won't unlock.

I've had similar things happen in SG where I get a scene and it won't unlock in the gallery. His gallery coding has always been poor in my experience.

so... Steam version will be without incest and Uncensor Patch won't help?

 

[BobTheDuck]

so... Steam version will be without incest and Uncensor Patch won't help?

The old uncensor patch replaces the script. it would need to be done for all the new scenes. And you have to trust that the uncensor patch hasn't misunderstood the story and changed legitimate uses of the term landlord ie Dana IS Willi and Miru's landlord once they sign the contract for the appartment

As far as Steam goes, we don't know. Ocean made a statement that he withdrew ages ago about relationships. I can only imagine he wants to reveal some of those things in game. Steam doesn't seem to care, but because the game is tied to SG... who knows? We'll hopefully find out in 3 weeks (1 week steam resubmission, 2 weeks with curators for site reviews).
