I'm having a hard time keeping up with these.

Is this the good one that actually expanded the story a fair bit before being abandoned, or is this the one that randomly started completely over the instant it reached end of content from the original game?

Google for "big brother the Smirniy" for a completed bb game. It also have a few new scenes.

I don't know what he's making, but content wise - nothing. I get it, coding mini games is cool and all, but who really cares about them if there's no content with it.. It's like going to work and you don't get paid.. did some stream donation thing and in the end you get "in future updates" well.. dayum.. that's stupid..

I don't know what you're surprised about, to be honest, the fault is, so to speak, in some way, the fault of the fans, for expecting something from people who steal or, to put it more delicately, borrow.
All the people who tried to take someone else's work, whether it was abandoned or finished, only did it with one goal: to squeeze people's money.
For some, this is what they said, they don't recognize it, it's like that.
They say they do it out of youthful passion, whatever you want to call it, but if they don't reach a certain amount of money per month, they don't release the update every month or year, they become more greedy.
Squeezing people even more by first releasing 1 update every month to get them to bite, then every 3 months and then 1 update every 6 months, if you're lucky, a 10-minute game update, but the people on Patreon are being charged x money every
Then when the story seems to advance and it reaches a point, as people say, where it goes from being blue balls to something more interesting, they make up an excuse saying that they don't like a certain scene or certain dialogue or images. I'm going to make them of higher quality, I'm going to restart the game, starting everything over again. month.
Tell me, do what I write sound familiar to you? I'm making something up, these types of creators.

TBH not really surprised. Disappointed? Yes.

In terms of Milking, Patreon, Stealing etc. I really don't care that much about it. Blatant stealing...sure. But let's be realistic. Silver is never coming back to this game. In fact, after Glamour, I don't think he is getting into adult gaming again.
People can complain about Silver all they want, but he delivered a pretty complete game from Jan 2017 - Feb 2018

Basically, he wrote a complete game in just over 1 year. This one has been in dev for 5 years and not even at the same place as the original. If Silver were to come back to this game, and resume where he dropped off, it would be an instant success (I mean I would start playing it again).

TLDR, Stealing does not really apply here, since the original dev is not continuing on the game and people supporting this game are fools. Let them throw away their money.

Looking from a Dev's perspective, continuing on someone else's game... not something I would do, but I really liked the original, and the original actually had some closure and did not end on a cliffhanger, I was interested to see how someone else could take the story forwards with our favourite characters.

I mean all the hard work is already done for him - The character types are already established - Kira - Wild Aunt, Ann - Strict Milf, Alice - Rebel Tsundere older sister, Lisa - Naive but curios younger sister and lastly our already resolved Antagonist and optional NTR actor - Eric.

Everything is basically already done. The story is ready for a blank slate to continue with everything already established and setup. But yes... they fuck it up. So yes, I'm disappointed, but not heartbroken.

It is possible to play with older saves! You don't need to start from the beginning. Just go to LOAD game and choose one of the AUTOMATIC saves. After the text comes up that says it's an old save and it's not possible/compatible to play you just need to scroll up on your mouse (Rollback). Voila! You can now play from where you ended your last save in the previous version.
I've done this since the beginning and it works every time.
