Eric will not give Alice gifts and money for nothing. Of course he wants to gain her trust and affection to have sex with her. As for Lisa, understand why I skipped the conversation about rape and etc? Do you think Ann who went through some psychological disorder would let her boyfriend touch her daughter? But let's assume Eric knows Ann is weak-minded and always tries to blackmail her, that if it doesn't go his way he will leave his life and that makes Ann submit to him at all costs. I really wouldn't be that interested in that. I mean, wouldn't it be more practical to write a simpler and more constructive plot? is a porn game and not a life simulator. Of course Eric wants to fuck every girl in the house, otherwise it would be a boring game where the NPC is just an figurant.

There's this scene in BB, which will probably be in BB AS now, where Max took pictures of Eric jerking off in front of Alice's bedroom. He shrugs it off, explains something flimsy to Ann... and Ann believes him and accuses Max of doing bad things.

Yeah, in original, Eric was overheard by Max talking on the phone, to his real girl friend, or wife. The plain was to take the house from Ann, kick the family out, and either move in it with her, or sale it and go back to her. Original was never real clear on this plain of his, but soon after Max gets rid of Eric, so it went no further than that. Nothing about killing anyone. From Eric's wallet Max found out that Eric's real name was Victor, and he was wanted by some Mob guys are something to that effect. Seems Eric had done something very similar to the wrong lady, someone connected with these guys. So basically all Max had to do was make that phone call, and Eric swims with the fishes. Aleksey has a humane way of getting rid of Eric, so he rejected my idea of driving a railroad spike through his left eye till it pops out the back of his skull.

OK when back to the original to see this and its there. No plot murder plot from Eric anddddd...... Technicalllllyyyyy the only murder plot may come from Max on one of the paths to deal with Eric. Do you think any aspect of that specific plot will make it into BS_AS?

I understand BB_AS is not just a remake but revamp of the original but I have reached the point of finally dealing with Eric in very little time on the original and finished the last version with no Eric in Glamour. I realise Eric's character is one some people love to hate and others love to debate on but unless BB_AS turns out to be a huge game (content wise) or this is where the BB_AS VN changes paths and becomes another game altogether. It's getting harder for me to comprehend the level of influence Eric exerts on not just the family but the players. I've not finished the available content of the original so my argument is only from what I've seen so far and heard. But again I'm really struggling the understanding why he's taking up so space (game wise and players time). Even in the game itself he's only there in the night 2 or 3 days a week....... Why in BB_AS is he such a central figure when there is so much more of the story to go?

Sorry if my statement turned into a ramble in some parts I really try to keep it short but there were a lot of thoughts to condense.

AfaIk in BB after a certain story point Eric gained weekly influence and when reaching 100% with Ann and 2 of 3 girls (Lisa, Alice, Kira) it is a game over. Reducing Eric's weekly influence to zero is only possible if you know all actions which affect influence. This knowledge players either get from a walkthrough or by try and error. Battling Eric's influence is a job which requires to repeat these daily and weekly tasks as often as possible/necessary every day/week which is a chore. Otherwise Eric's influence will slowly increase up to 100%. I think for Alice it was a combination of 1-2 spider events (5 days cooldown to get new spider), applying sunblock (?) and daily tv event.
While learning how to effectively battle Eric is part of the challenge, endless repitition of all these steps every day/week just to prevent a game over does not add to the story nor unlocks new content. So it is good that players can get rid of Eric.

In BB_AS in current version the influence is broken and can't be effectively reduced, so players usually use the cheat menu to keep Eric's influence down.

I think I got lucky because I just grinded for 3 - 4 weeks and got Ann's influence to 0, Alice to 25 and Lisa to zero. It really was not that hard. I am sure I did not formulate my question properly now. So I'll rethink ask later.

thx but Eric phase?
Also its kinda crucial in determining if I try this, since with limited internet I cant download everything, but how much content is there with the mum?

Keeping an eye on this. I like the OG Big Brother - though it got repetitive at times with the grinding, there was just a bit TOO much - but I don't care for the sequel much. If someone brings the original to a real conclusion, I'll be happy. Similar to Urban Demons...

If only Bonehead got finished.
