These reboots or reworks just need to add on to the things that were missing in the old game. Lisa sex ed with Ann and Eric, Eric actually banging Alice, Lisa finally banging the MC, the Oliva and Lisa route that got dropped after a couple of months in the original. There is content to be mined that none of the reworks or remakes have ever touched. Many of them just extend already resolved plots like Alice streaming, or Ann, and never focus on the dangling threads from the original game. That, and they have small updates, in the two years this game existed it has covered, what? About 4 or 5 updates of the old game?Maybe that's the actual problem if you bring Eric in its still a retread. It needs to be something completely different to draw people in. The devs of these Big Brother reboots need to think outside the box. (and no I don't mean send them to space)
Else, just make a new game with new characters.
