Ren'Py Big Brother: Another Story Rebuild [v0.08.02] [Aleksey90]

[JeffM80]

That is on the creators not the customers. My problem is with the Patreon model. How can you justify a subscription of say 10 dollars for a VN? One that has what, 4 to 5 updates a year if you're lucky? That amounts to a couple of hours of content made up of still images and 10 second animation loops. Thats 120 bucks a year. A triple A game that comes with 10+ hours of content, recorded audio lines, actual gameplay among a million other things costs about 60 dollars. So tell me how is that justifiable?

Miss me with that crap. It's up to the devs to find a better way to monetize their games. Or put up finished products for a set price. I would 100% pay 10 bucks for a game like Melody for example. 5-8 bucks from Inceton's first season of Summer with Mia. Instead of relying on platforms like SS and Patreon maybe make your own website. Force players to go in without adblock and run some ads. Wanna get access to a dl link? just watch 3 damn minutes of non-intrusive ads. I'd be down for that. I don't know how feasible these ideas are but there has to be a better way.

I don't think anyone likes the way these games are funded but it's the only way we have. We're relying on whales to fund while the rest of us can only, at best, dip in and out of supporting. Unless someone super rich wants to come in and not only fund a bunch of games themselves, which would create far superior games fwiw, but also a good platform for them to be sold on, then we're stuck with devs forcing out updates to keep their income high enough. We're also stuck with the devs who create dozens of beautiful fan arts, including full scenes, for a game that they then make a clone of but still don't have said scenes in the game 2 years later.

I like it that Eric is not just a side character as in the other big brother games. Hope it stay like this and you dont MUST get rid of him to progress the story.

 

[The 1★ Dude]

- Eric will try to persuade Lisa to continue sex education lessons without Ann's participation;

More physical content would be nice.

 

[Makasss]

Да, бля, я буду в рашке зарабатывать в рашке, чтоб донатить, чтоб удовлетворить

Just translate the story
For whom this tide incoming

 

[Time Killer1981]

really looking forward to updating. I hope that this port of the game will advance further in history, and will not become another story thrown into the trash

 

[Shiva0067]

Tis the season to Ba Humbug... Fa la la la la.

Merry X-mas, Happy Holidays, Good Morning and all the rest. Hope all are Happy, Healthy, and Horny Wise.

Just a thought.

P.S. For Christmas I want Chocolate Chip Cookies.

 

[Monster000]

Looks like a "get rid of eric to progress the main story" update. I had hopes but seems like this game is just the same copy of big brother.

 

[Sex robot]

Damn it. When will Eric be able to share Ann with MC

 

[kelvinll]

I don't mean to be boring, but it's always the same story.

"Same thing as in the other game!"
Ai releases an update "I've never seen a game with so much bug"

"Eric isn't leaving?"

Guys, stop complaining and enjoy the game!
I'm just an ordinary member like so many around here, but it sucks to read the same things every day!

Finally we get rid of him?!

 

[Abaco123]

The Dev said last time that part 2 would have been continuation of Eric friendship path and the possibility to kick him out of the house.
Hopefully there is enough content for both routes so everyone is happy.
Also because it would be really disappointing for fans of a certain route if the dev didn't make anything for them after having said that their content will be present in part 2

 

[The 1★ Dude]

I don't mean to be boring, but it's always the same story.

The game name is "Big Brother: Another Story" not "Big Brother: Same Story".

Let's use God's perspective to resolve disputes

God spends 5 minutes on this website
Mhhh what was that purple guy did on that movie? Snap his fingers? Guess I should do the same.

In other news since I tried to let this game be its own thing from the previous game which honestly still haunts me to this day, de we have the chance to cockblock Eric? How far is this game in content compared to the previous one?

 

[Twelvemonkey]

So, Eric will be gone sooner or later? Can someone confirm this? I mean, if there's no Eric then there's no point in playing anymore. Cause the game will be no different than the other shitty harem games out there.
