Q & A

kuppu:
Any news about next update release date ?

aleksey90:
Whole of August will definitely be busy working on it.

kuppu:
So this update is bigger than usual

aleksey90:
Last update had almost no new content and was devoted to working on bugs and reworking Opportunities to make the game clearer and better. v0.07 will focus on the content and promotion of the story with Eric. Eric will stay or you will get rid of him. Also in development is the introduction of a new character and a massage parlor.
Each of the main girls will not be without attention.

As per the attached report, its clearly some Access issue.
Either your Anti-virus program is blocking it or you don't have access in your User Login. (accessing Appdata or Temp folder)

Error:
G:\gry\!niepelne\Big Brother Another Story 0.06.6.02e\lib\windows-x86_64\libpython2.7.dll has caused an access violation exception (0xC0000005) when trying to read from memory location 0x00000000 on thread 0

If you're able to run other Ren'py based games? Are they also installed in the same folder path? If so, try giving the .exe file the admin access and check.

I'd suggest trying to run the game as administrator and see how that goes on top of checking the anti virus.
My AV is blocking just about every renpy games using the recent engine, usually, because they try to create some files on the first run, in a directory that I've protected against spywares and such. You might be facing something similar there.

I tried this game after a long hiatus and it's gotten a bit better but the same flaw for me remains (Eric). The MC can spend days building his influence with everyone and no matter what you do all week, Eric is able to undo almost all of your gains instantly when he arrives (Monday in particular) setting you back to repeating everything. Why is it so hard to maintain your influence rather than rebuilding it every week? It's almost like you have to use the cheats or you'll have no time to explore the new content.

I didn't like dealing with Eric either, but for some reason, he has stopped coming around, for now at least.

I guess that's the case because the influence stat means hardly anything at the moment. Where would be the "fun" (we all love having Eric in the game, do we?) to compete against that guy if you had won before the story is even written?

If you are talking about the girls mood, that always goes back to neutral, if you don't do something about it. Even if Eric was not in the game. As far influence, if you mod it in, you may miss some triggers, and never complete some opportunities.
Don't worry about Eric, next update, ship him off to the dog food canning factory.

The girls in the game are just like the real thing.
As soon as you stop taking care of them, they will show it to you. ;)

If you've got the picture, show it, don't just show a link to the Patreon page.
This particular picture is a cam view of Eric taking a shit. So in this one isolated case, it's better to NOT show the picture. In fact, it's better to not even mention the link. Seriously. How do you say "buzz kill" in Russian?

I think people who dislike Eric will like the picture as it is a hint of how Max can sabotage Eric before getting rid of him.

But it should be put in a spoiler for sure :LOL:

Honestly I have no problem with the antagonist. I generally used the cheat to gauge the stats and try very hard not to tamper with anything. But if you play and just use the mod to track stats (not mood but influence) you will see how easily Eric's influence erodes yours in a matter of hours even though you are playing to meet all the points where influence points are made.

What influence he has in some mod, does not count. You only need to watch there mood, and complete the opportunities. I don't think dog food cans will get in the way of your influence. Only make your dog sick. Stay away from cheep dog food.

Influence seems to be hidden stat and they change reactions (to me) more than mood. For instance both sisters can be in good or very good moods but depending on who has the the higher influence the homework and blog scenes change. If Eric's influence is higher (mood good or very good) Lisa homework dialogue changes to she has a tutor already and for Alice blog scene you actually see Eric there. If the MC's influence is higher Lisa's homework dialogue does not mention Eric and reverts to pre Eric helping her dialogue. For Alice it's splits her blog scene either states Eric is helping her or you get a scene where there is no interaction available. From what I'm seeing there may be other instances but I have not noticed them yet.
