VN Ren'Py Summer's Gone [S1 Steam + DLC] [Oceanlab]

[Bay7]

Well, only Mila, Victoria, and Nia are into mc. For Victoria, it's because he was there for her during the accident and in the hospital and she doesn't seem to interact with other guys. For Nia, it's probably the emo thing. Only Mila I don't understand, I thought she and Jeff were a thing but apparently not. All the other girls are mostly just friendly and platonic.

And please stop trashing his hairstyle, I like it very much.

"To each his own," said a monk, pissing in his soup ".. old French proverb from the Middle Ages. But OK, I won't say anything more about the horrible, weird and ridiculous MC haircut.

 

[Deleted member 327695]

But yes, I agree with you. Nothing in her family, physical and emotional situation justifies that all the other girls in the game are attracted like a magnet.

I wouldn't say realistic though, this game sometimes still has vibes of being a porn game, like how everyone magically expresses interest in our protagonist, are you telling me that the hot women in his college only has one type?

Don't confuse being kind and friendly with attraction.
Just like the smile of a waitress doesn't mean anything.

Besides a few obvious cases (Mila, Vic, Nami, Nia.) the other girls are more or less just friendly.


Nobody's asking him out or is trying to get into his pants.
And the penis locker room talk... well, that's just locker room talk.

What is currently drawing people to the MC is curiosity. If you and Bella are a thing, be sure that it will not go unnoticed and people will be curious who this guy with the incredibly perfect hair is.

It's the same with the Robin/Sasha gym scene in Ch3. You only get invited if you're good with Bella.

It's not necessarily the MC, it's the circumstances that surround him.

there's really no reason for mila and victoria to be so into our protagonist.

Mila does mention that she picked interest in him because he doesn't act like the others. (In the gym route she says that she's surprised that he hasn't even looked at her cleavage once. This picked her curiosity.

Victoria shares a traumatizing event with the MC. That's more than enough to make people feel like having a connection.

Mila (Mc's anti-sexual behavior.)
Vic (Shares a traumatizing event with the MC.)
Nami (The past.)
Nia (Besides the fact that she likes the way he looks, there's some background here, too.)

I sincerely hope the Tabletop session won't be just excuse to have sex scenes because that's generally the point of DND in these games.

No need to worry.

I'm not building up a slow burn connection to ruin it with something as cheap as a "Dream scene" or "Fantasy scene."
That's also the reason why Sonya is still wearing her Hijab in the tabletop session.

It's much more than just a piece of clothing. It's a mindset.

Maybe you are jealous because you can't have his hairstyle

I do not know if anyone has already said this, but there is a small mistake when you open these 2 pictures by Victoria... they are mixed up in places with each other

At my age, it would seem curious, not to say completely stupid to style my hair like the MC. I owe it to myself to be classic, without fancy and of good appearance. But OK, I said ... I won't say anything more about it.

 

[Terminator_26F]

*sniff sniff* I smell Jealousy coming from her whenever our MC is with another girl and you who she reminds me of...

YEP! exactly how I see Bella.

Leia, Nami, and Sasha. What's their connection?

oh yeah, that's all you had to say my man



usually the d&d sessions are used for dream scenes like in badik which isn't that bad but it doesn't add to the plot whatsoever and is just generally a waste of precious dev time for the sake of jacking off. I'm pretty sure most if not all of the audience is with me when I say we'd like some more banter between character, there's nothing more healthy to a piece of literature when characters interact with each other, even adult games benefit from it.

Everyone is sincery .... "atleast when this someone is sleeping" ...

well I'm in love with Bella and I don't do three ways

what can I say Ocean i love monogamy

and I absolutely love it. Even if you are not romantically interested in any of the other girls you can still be their friend

Mila, for example, there's nothing physical going on between us but I am still her friend and I care about her.

I love that it is okay to be just a friend with a girl and nothing more

Leia could be Summer's mother. Young age Leia in the old WIAB looks exactly like Summer. Or maybe Ocean was just reusing the models he had.

 

[Fortuna ღ]

One thing I wouldn't mind seeing this game (and others) do more of is add more dudes to it (no homo ) - and the reason is because it's realistic. I don't want my character to be the only show in town so-to-speak, and I don't mind competition for the girls because again, it's realistic, especially given how sexy these female characters are, they'd have dudes chasing after them all day long, and as long as the story allowed the player a route to intervene and 'win the girl's affections' that would be a pretty neat dynamic, and girls you weren't interested in could potentially still find some happiness with another character so you didn't feel bad for turning them down or not being interested, etc.

I wouldn't mind this either. As mentally unstable as Bella is, she'd still have a lot of options. The same can be said for Jill. It's normal for girls to have interests too... but that's not something you'd normally see in these games. When I do see writers/developers attempt to take this on, and give the girls lives outside of the MC, it's not very well received. I mean guys, I hate to break it to you, but girls like Bella and Jill would have had guys trying to break down their doors trying to be with them.

I agree that it may make some people feel better knowing that the person they've rejected will still find happiness. This is the main reason why I want more games to implement this. The only reason this doesn't work is because the rival that's often introduced to the MC, is often a jerk of some kind that only wants to use the LI. While men like that exist, there are also men who want genuine relationships. While I don't think Summer's Gone will really get into it(this is how I feel right now... I mean anything can happen it's supposed to be like 30 chapters), I believe it will open the door for things like this. I never really understood why the LI's of these AVNs are all supposed to be loyal to an MC that's not. But maybe that's just me lol

I don't mind the girls I reject finding love with someone else but I don't want the girl I'm in love with going on dates with anybody else I don't want to see Bella being kissed by anyone else

if I'm in love with the girl and if I'm on her route I don't want to see her with anyone else

sis I hope you don't think less of me for that

I know it's probably selfish but seeing Bella with anyone else when I'm on her route would kill me

 

[nissinramen]
