As someone who has never played big brother before, which version do I start with? The remake or this one?

My personal recommendation is to start with the original. There are several guides (not walkthroughs) that will HELP, and I suggest checking/using them (the one for the first couple days is VERY useful. The main issue with the original is that it uses the Unity engine so that MIGHT be a problem. Also, be careful with any Mods you decide to use. Some of the can cause problems if used with each other.

After that it would be a matter of choice. For myself I prefer THIS version over the remake.

Hope that helps.

Play the original for sure, it's one of the best games on the site and with some of the basic cheat mods the grind is not bad and adds immersion to the corruption. It's a great slow burn, and has a lot of content, but unfortunately some loose ends left undone.

Glamour is the official continuation of the original, but due to the way it's designed all the "familial" elements feel pretty cherry dropped in without context as it's usual just a change of noun in the sentence with nothing else.

This remake is the best third-party continuation IMO, but is very slow in terms of development, but quality in terms of writing/visuals/gameplay is better than original

There are a couple of anal scenes and a bunch of hand/blowjobs with Lisa in the original. Each of the main 3 woman had a few scenes each. This game? There have been more pointless behind-the-scenes changes (Unreal to Renpy; New, inferior lighting system making all the images look flat; Gen 3 to Gen 8 models which makes no difference to the resulting images) than sex scenes so far. Updates come every ~4 months with very little content each time.

Edit: If you want to play with the Big Brother characters, Glamour is your best option right now. Same dev as the original and the main criticism is that he's turned Glamour intoa BB remake at this point. It's very repetetive but so was BB and so is this game.

Well Fully appreciate it and with how slow anyone associate with anything to do with Big brother might as well wait another 5 years before even looking Lol

The fact is , this game is a nightmare for those who are used to doing 5 simple clicks and reaching their desired scenes. This game is not suitable for those who are not interested in solving puzzles and hard games.
There is no doubt that this game is going slowly. And I don't want to discuss the reasons for that and I don't defense this issue. But there is a big difference between a water lake with a depth of 5 cm and a lake with a depth of 50 meters. On the surface, everything is the same in shape , size and ... , but actually there are big differences between them.

In general, whether this game or any other game is a good game or not depends on the person who wants to play it. People's tastes, desires and opinions are different, the only way to know the answer for each person is to try each game that have doubts about it.

Well said. That´s exactly why I love this game, even though sometimes I get anxious between updates

I just don't understand people who need to vent out like they do, I don't care how long it takes for an update to drop, it's not my game, it's the game maker's game and he/she will drop updates when they are ready to. If his subscribers are unhappy with the output, then it is up to them to support or not to support the game. There's no need to come on these forums and bitch about it.

Talk about the game content as much as you want to, but there's no need to keep bitching, and they wonder why some games end up abandoned.

What desired scenes? It's been 2.5 years and there's nothing to get stuck trying to reach. As I've commented on here before, Alexsey has fully-rendered sex scenes with Lisa, Alice, Anne, and combinations of the three completed on the fan art thread and they're gorgeous. One of them's even animated ffs. Those posts are 3 years old now and the game has zero of those images in it.

That's not the game being slow or too hard for my simple brain. I didn't get lost on the way to finding a shred of content, there just wasn't a shread to find.

Someone asked if the game was worth playing compared to other options. I answered then elaborated when they asked a follow-up. Did I say anything inaccurate?

I purposely didn't quote anyone so as not to point fingers, my post was about the bitching in general, it's not just this game, but it just gets annoying to see a new post pop up and you click hoping to get some news or something and it ends up someone is just bitching again.

Your perception must be set to ignore the content that doesn't fit your agenda (which is totally fine if you just want to rant and rage). Because if it's one of the two, then it can't be the first, since there's Kira. If you don't see that as porn, then I don't know what you see as such.
Could there be more of it? Sure. But saying that there isn't, is wrong, plain and simple.

If you'd change your statement to "little" and "a lot of", then it would only be a matter of if you feel the game is grindy.
Because then the part about the porn would be true if we don't count all the possibilities to see someone naked and Alice grinding Max' dick with feet and her more private parts and and Eric having his way with Ann. Because these points obviously don't count as porn, right? That's what you see in every Saturday morning cartoon.

The true answer is simple. If you want a longer story with Lisa you have to play Glamour. DarkSilvers own remake version of BB. I have no clue where this version will go.. But either game you play is a GGG (grand grind guarantee) :p
