Start with the living room. It is known to have many viewers (for whatever reason). The rest is not THAT important. The way to get more money is to stay (forward time) in the room with most viewers.

I'm sorry. But... Did you just tell me that the best order to place new cameras, is to start with the default camera. I asked for the Second and your talking about the first which comes for free??? Sorry but... Really? Thats your reply to the question???

I remember from the Original DarkSilver version there was certain rooms which had more events that would give more cash draw then others, like the Bathroom or Ann's Bedroom for example. But wasn't sure if that was changed/removed/carriedover.

BB_AS has a lot of new approaches to the BB story : ren'py, more stats, more image variations for certain scenes, more scenes, ... On the other side so far it is probably only halfway through BB content, so it will take some more years ...

There is already another remake of BB without Eric called Glamour (Max' path).
Eric adds some challenge to the game to do things in time to not loose opportunities. Without Eric there are no real challenges. As in BB there will be opportunities to get rid of Eric coming with one of the next updates.

Downside of Eric is that resources are used for the NTR scenes where Eric fucks Ann, Alice and Lisa. Since most players will get rid of Eric asap, thoses scenes will mostly remain unseen. The resources could be better spent for scenes most players will see and enjoy.

It has been a while since I started a new game. So here is my shortened answer: Stay in the living room. You earn money for just being there. The rest doesn't matter.

Best place for 2nd camera usually is the yard/pool since there are girls most of the time during daytime ...
In original BB it helped to stay in the room with most viewers to get some additional viewers / prevent viewers from leaving.

In BB_AS there is the option to take a loan after buying the first piece for Lisa/Alice, so you have to optimize your income only during the first days. In the long run there are no cash problems if you place an add per day. You can buy cameras for all the places.

You need a camera in Alice' room to continue with some opportunities.

There's new stuff and there have been changes. Also, some people love and others hate. You can never satisfy everyone.

A tip, take a nap around 11:00 or in the afternoon, because it's not worth wasting your time blackmailing Alice at 13:00 so take at least 3 hours of nap or more if you want to avoid giving Alice massages. Probably you won't see Max "tired"; You can also use the alarm clock and always wake up at 06:00 or 07:00 and use this nap method.



The game needs to have an information tab about these types of features. How much influence Eric has each girl per day and how much influence you can reduce. I remember that in the original game, you were able to reduce the influence in several ways, with Ann you had to buy cosmetics, clean the pool, order purchases groceries, do yoga and buy pills. Asking for money and letting Eric fuck Ann increased to the influence. With Alice, to lessen the influence you had to give her money, give her massages, wash the dishes, kill the spider and maybe I think to have sex with her. Eric's influence increased when he appeared in her room (as he always bought her an item of clothing). Lisa, it was different and the same thing, it turns out that the influence was only increased if you allowed it. Telling her to go to the lounge and see Eric fucking Ann, Lisa going to Ann's room with Eric and Ann together, increased the influence, the rest, to decrease the influence was just washing the dishes, doing their homework..
I don't know what the enemy's path is in this game, but in the original bb it was pretty easy to decrease Eric's influence, I played in the friendship path and saw that Eric's influence under Alice increased a lot, I don't know if that's good or bad, but the story is slowly developing and we don't know what it was like it will be kicked in both paths or if there will be extension in the path of friendship.

I only play the enemy path in this game and pull no punches with Eric. Funny enough one of the hidden stats in this game is exercise or strength (can't remember right now) and that is no way implemented in the game as far as I see (maybe not on my path). I've heard some things of the original but never played it, I would be nice if eventually we get to see other places like the mall, club, school or mom office some time though. Just my opinion.

This is the first time playing this in a long time.

Can someone explain the paths?
I understand the friend and war path.
What is the pretending to be a friend? How do I start that path?

When playing the Friend path, at certain points in the story Eric will announce to now go for Alice / Lisa and asks Max for support. The player then can choose to help Eric or just pretend to help and instead try to play for time, e.g. to gather blackmail stuff against Eric.

The original game only had a hospital room, a shot of the school entrance and a coffee shop. Al the rest was 3rd party mods.

How to proceed with Alice once a week candy?
Click to expand...
Most of the opportunities are connected among each other, so to progress further in one opportunity you first have to progress in some others. Check the hints ('?') for more details.
To progress with Party Girl you need to progress with Lisa, Alice and Kira in other events, too.

Yeah I get that. I mean on here. It just is an attitional thing to note when looking here before even thinking of loading the game up.

EDIT::
Also... Is there optimal Camera placement order? Like which room should the second camera be placed and so forth for best cash influx to afford the next?
Click to expand...
For cash influx you only realistically need the lounge cam, you'd have to do all the events there regularly though (foot massage with Alice, watch porn with Kira and spy on Ann and Eric) and spend money 2-3 times a week to buy ads.
Other than that, you should get cameras for Alice's room somewhat soon-ish, because it's required to progress an opportunity with her. Also, plant a camera in Anne's room, since I think you'll need to spy on Lisa's lessons.
