Out of the Ocean

[h1] 「♥Out of the Ocean♥」 [/h1] [h2] 「♥游戏介绍♥」 [/h2] 走出深海Out of the Ocean是一款百合题材的中篇幅多结局的视觉小说游戏，游戏讲述了女主明日香在海边意外拯救了一条美人鱼Nerine（内林？），还亲亲了她，就这样把她养在了自家浴室里，随着剧情发展又认识了一名叫做美佐津的角色，三个人开始了一段甜蜜的恋爱日常，而女主也要在两名女孩子之间进行抉择，自己是不是喜欢女生，更喜欢谁，还是我全都要。是单身还是和她们喜结连理都看玩家如何选择了，游戏CG精美，大概在4-5个小时左右就能全结局通关。 [h2] 「♥游戏内容♥」 [/h2] 先说一下美人鱼的名字，这个名字翻译过来可能不太好听，我就叫内林了。Nerine这个名字是一个希腊名字，源自“nēreus”，意思是海神。其实也暗示了美人鱼的身份不一般。 游戏的剧情讲述了女主明日香回到了自己姑姑的家开始生活，在一天晚上去海边散步的时候，看到了一条半人半鱼的美人鱼被冲到了岸边，女主决定要不要救她，如果不救直接就进入结局了。她过去摇了摇，发现还活着，美人鱼说让女主亲亲她，女主亲了亲就决定把她带回自己家里面了，将放在浴场里面包养她。就这样她一边要适应新学校的新生活，还要尝试结交新的朋友，还要将美人鱼的事情隐藏起来，忙碌的日常开始了。 游戏的结局有很多个，除去平淡无奇和坏结局外，有2个个人线结局，还有1个后宫结局，结局后还有一小段后日谈内容可以看，不过每个路线最后面选项之后还会有一段超长剧情，那部分还是挺长的，要跳好久。比较遗憾的是游戏没有中文，需要玩家有点阅读能力和英语水平才能游玩下去，不过剧情还是挺好的，甜甜的，没有黑深残，最后也是美好的结局。 [h2] 「♥总结♥」 [/h2] 走出深海是一部非常优秀的百合视觉小说，虽然游戏没有汉化，但是没有过于难以理解的剧情，大部分玩家应该都能玩懂，而且最后结局也是甜甜的，没有刀子，平平淡淡才是真，推荐给喜欢百合题材的视觉小说玩家入手游玩。 [table][td]欢迎关注鉴赏家[url= https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45519015/]“无趣评测”[/url][/td][/table]

As much as I love Ebi's stories, this one didn't completely satisfy me. The multiple endings imply less desirable endings, and that bothers me a bit. Ebi's stories are light and fun and never fail to make my heart skip a beat, but multiple endings create some "obstacles" that ruin my experience. The length is okay; I'd call it long, since it took me 30 hours to finish it. I'd like to read more scenes of everyday life. 8/10

Marina isn't a romance option? Submitting a bug report now.

Each ending adds to my understanding of the characters, though the plot is basically the same aside from who Asuka ends up with, so I guess I didn't have to feel as bad about my actions as I initially did.

A very good, very cute love story! Complete with a rare poly ending that more love stories should have! Highly recommend.

A very cute yuri visual novel ♡

The story was cute, especially the poly ending, my personal favorite, but even the other "meaningful" endings are cute a lot. All endings (except the literal first ending of refusing to save Nerine that cut you from all the game) add some bits of the characters that are really interesting, and compel to reply multiple routes (even if with the skip functionality that interrupt on lines non already played, an info that is saved separately from the normal save state). P.S the long registered play time is often due I kept the game open during pauses. Between 8 and 12 hours may be more exact as playtime [the rest may contain spoilers] I loved the scene where Aunt Shoko confronted Asuka regarding Nerine. Honestly is cute on how she "motherly bonded" with Nerine during the story. Shoko is imho the good balance of a parent, a good middle between the extreme laxness of Asuka parents, the extreme disrespect and iperfocus of Nerine ones and the extreme overbearing control freakness and extreme bias of Misuzu's. BTW Ririko in the scene where she met Marina get an italian award of insults. (another scene I loved) The only think I liked less, is that sometimes the choices seems a bit more cruel then what the actual dialogue say, that is instead way more neutral, especially for some choices pushing for the Misuzu ending. Also personally I would have made the library event acceptable trought a choice instead of being autoselectable. But it's a very very minor point, becouse it seems harder to trigger for a non exclusive Misuzu path (like poly), but I think I'm gonna study a bit the scripts to see if I missed something. Edit: I checked the script and in fact you can chose if you didn't trigger a romance already (defined to having >= 12 points on either Misuzu or Nerine) By reading the script it turn out that if both NErine and Misuzu got "affection" points above or equal 12 (something that I verified with hand calculation is possible) it lock in to Nerine route and lock you out of the library date, even if Misuzu have more points, saying that Misuzu don't make Asuka's heart flutter. It would be better maybe if this part of the game would address this factor maybe addressing the fact both girls make asuka's heart flutter instead, maybe depending on the harem_points, or chose the romance path depending on the true higher value instead. Albeit is probably done becouse Nerine route have more seamless way to develop trought the poly ending. In case, it may be worth to at least allow the library date to be chooseable by the player in this specific case, but I do also realize that it may mess to much with the earnable points so it may mangle the finale Also in the poly ending isn't clear if Nerine started going to school, but I suppose yes as in the other romantic endings she did. A bit sad we don't see Misuzu mother reactions at the end... I would have loved to see a bit of comeuppance for that jerk, especially with the poly ending where Misuzu expressed more will to defy her mother then in her own ending.
