Ren'Py Big Brother: Another Story Rebuild [v0.07.01] [Aleksey90]

[Burt Reynolds Mustache]

I played original BB, and there is a route with friendship with Erik. He lets you to join when he fuck Ann. But this route was unfinished (only tits and pussy touching), that why i want to see it in this project.

Well that was the issue with Big Brother, lots of choice and possibilities promised early on, and it went straight linear as soon as Eric was taken out. But most of the promises really went away with time as it stretched things out, it's funny, Glamour has lasted about twice as long as BB did and it has less story advancement and sexual content. It is a fair bit more open than BB ever was, so it shows the trade-off I suppose. The dev here has the option of adding these varying routes as he ports BB, or instead porting what was there first, then expanding once the main game is basically playable. I think the second might be the better way to go, but it is hard to say.

He has answered guys!

Guess we'll get Eric further corrupting girls or being pals with him

Peeping Ann with Eric was voyeurism.
Peeping Alice with Eric was voyeurism.
Watching Ann while Eric fucking her was cuckold.
Eric was blackmailing Kira for sex. <-----NTR
Eric was visiting Lisa's room or mother room for sex education. Dev didn't let us peep but was <-----NTR

Ok I stand corrected. Thank you for explaining. But I was right about Ann and Eric(not NTR).

Glad that he replied to you and I am happy for those here that wanted this to be true. The more fans of this game the more likely it will be completed hopefully. Of coerce I know that it was not lack of fans that stopped BB.

Well there is a lot of debate about that. But I think that the dev. was losing his patron acc. because of incest in the game but I am shore that someone on this site knows more than me. Don't think it maters anymore that dev. has moved on to making a different game called glamour. He is remaking part of BB in that game. It's not quite the same.

Nice to see Eric will be featured in this game more. I think he should be able to punish/tutor/interact with all the girls just like the main character can. Depending on how the developer does things, this version may end up becoming more popular than the original.

From the Alien cook book. Roast your fresh live Eric over open fire. Saute in butter and olive oil. Rotate every 30m.Cook till golden brown about 5h. Serve with rice,gravy and a lite red wine. ENJOY Please note not for human consumption.

Excuse me there goes another Eric I must not keep diner waiting...Sometimes it's good to be an Alien.

I do not think that will make it more popular than the original unless it is avoidable. Did you see all the compliance about Eric just being in the game for the original BB. People are still complaining after all this time.

With other words: The game will split into 2 different games like Glamour?

I think I played the original Big Brother like two years ago. I never had any desire to replay it. There are two things that stand out in my mind when I remember the game. First of course is Eric. The second is the story that Kira tells Max about how Ann was strong and independent as a child. She tells him how Ann changed after both Ann and Kira were kidnapped by a child molester. Kira got away but Ann was held captive for a week. When Ann was found after that week, her spirit had been broken. I thought what a terrible thing to put into this story. What was worse was Max's reaction. Instead of feeling sorry for his mother, having some compassion for her; his only thought was to wonder how he could use this information to get into her pants.

There were a several things that I disliked about the original story. Max is pathetically weak. Eric is in control of the story in the beginning. Before Max can get rid of Eric, Kira takes control. When Kira's influence starts waning Alice takes charge. Max is the archetype douche bag MC. He doesn't truly care about anyone but himself as the above story demonstrates; but it doesn't really matter because the whole family is that way. After knowing Eric a week Ann let's him tell her how to raise her kids. After two weeks she's willing to send her son off to military school on Eric's say so. Alice, who was so happy that her mother has a boyfriend, is willing to betray her mother for clothes. Lisa becomes friends with Olivia to try to steal Alex. Kira manipulates her whole family.

To be honest what I liked about the game was I thought the render of Ann was hot. Perhaps that's one of the reasons I dislike Eric's character so much, because there is no opportunity to keep him away from her. The other reasons are that he is the start of everything I dislike about the game. Max's inability to stand up to Eric. The fact that everyone in the family is willing to betray everyone else in the family for Eric (even Max has a route to befriend Eric.) Just the fact that there is such a route shows what a douche bag Max can be.

I think I'm just going to walk away from this game. My hope when I saw it was that it was going to be a better game than the original. A game where Max wasn't so weak. A game where the family members cared about each other a little bit. These games have come a long away since the original BB, apparently not this one. It looks like it will be basically the same story with the same flaws (at least my perceived flaws.) There will just be some additional scenes and maybe a continuation of the same sad story.

People will always find something to complain about no matter the game. Eric being in the game has 0 drawbacks, it keeps the genre fresh by adding a twist to an otherwise boring generic harem game and it spices up gameplay being having features that require the player to actually interact instead of being a sterotypical scene/gallery hunting game.

Despite what people might say, Eric plays a huge role in Big Brother, I think without him the game becomes mediocre and boring.

So are you saying the game becomes mediocre and boring once he's gone?

That's exact the way of the original BB: friend or foe

In a way, once Eric is gone, it becomes a very normal porn game. Where all the ladies are just falling for, well, the beta MC. I mean, MC got expelled from school from harassing a teacher, (not sure if the original BB is the same plot, i forgot), the sisters and mom don't really see him as a man, and yet, if without Eric, they would still go for him. With Eric, there is a reason why the family will look up to MC, if MC proves that Eric is a villian, etc. Not that MC is a saint.

All in all, I feel that Eric creates more challenge, true, I believe people dislike it, due to him able to sleep with the mother immediately, but still, the chances of Mom sleeping with a man that is her superior, and to quote what she says, charming, is more believeable than the Mother hooking up with the MC. Though it is not seen, since the game is on MC's POV, Eric spends alot of time with the Mother, as they work at the same place, when MC is lurking around the house, peeking, Eric is charming the Mother... So yeah....

In the entire original, he never becomes a man. No one falls for him. No one ever looks up to him. All problems of the game. Kira manipulates all the events which allow MC to have sex with his family. The only real emotion in the story is MC's lust for his family. There is nothing else. Everything that I dislike about this story starts with Eric.

It is the same game. All characters in BB has been introduced in Glamour (with the exception of Eric). But with different platform. DS said with this new platform, there are multiple ways to continue BB unlike the old one, which is blocked by some platform boundaries.

It is the same game, but it's still progressing in a slower pace, because,
1. DS also building a 2nd character, with a possible having a cross paths with Max
2. DS remaking the entire story BB from the beginning into the new platform.
I assume it need another ~5-10 updates before Glamour catches up with the last abandoned states of BB.
