I agree max's character definitely needs improvement if this game hopes to come out of the Original's shadow & also so that there is some realism in the relationships with his sisters he has to become genuinely likeable.

PM from Aleksey
Thank you very much. Time is really very short, and work with the game is a huge pile. Now, for example, there was a delay in the release of v0.03 simply because there was not enough time to finalize the texts for the game.

Just a random question about this game. Does anyone know if there will be a way to make money WITHOUT setting up the spy cameras?? I was never a fan of that part of the original. I might have felt a LITTLE better if we could monitor them, but was not happy broadcasting what they saw. Personally, I would LOVE to have the option to sell the camera we find (maybe get GOOD GUY POINTS for doing so), and using that money as a base to continue earning. I don't know if that would work, but just thought I'd make the suggestion.
Just a thought.
P.S. Yes, I will probably cheat to get the money I need, but other options would be nice as well.
P.P.S. Also Yes, I know that the game title and Cameras are linked to the TV show. I would just like other options for myself. I'll play either way, but if we have to use cameras I'll do what I did before and cheat, while only having the first camera in place.

I also thought it was weird that you had all these cameras that you setup around the house, yet you never got to take advantage of any of them. It was a pretty frustrating way to make money too due to the way it was poorly implemented and I wonder if part of the reason was because DS cared more about NTR stuff at the beginning before getting slammed with criticism over it.
I completely agree. Dumbest thing ever, streaming to a site that's blocked, so you can't see what you're streaming. Or perhaps it was to emphasize the stupidity of Max. "Gee, I wonder what she's doing behind that closed door. If only there was a way to find out." "Well, you could use that camera you planted in her room to check on her." "Wait, that works?"
But the NTR thing wasn't really meant as NTR. DS really believed that incest was just an interest in your siblings and mother and their sexlife, instead of engaging in actual intercourse. Which is why he was so surprised people hated Eric, since he thought that was what people wanted to see.
Speaking of Eric (I know I'll get hate for this), but I hope he'll be implemented better. In the original game, it's too easy to tune him out and make him a non-factor (also, the irrational hatred for Eric right from the very start? Dude, Max, you're really crap at meeting new people, aren't you? "You just want to bang my mom, don't you?" "Well, I -AM- in a relationship with her, so yeah..."). The way I see it, there's three paths you could take with Eric: one is a full on war, where Eric is a constant threat and you're forced to compete for the girls (opening an NTR path where Eric can take all three girls for himself), one of subterfuge where you sway the girls without Eric noticing and end up cucking him, or where you side with Eric and help him win over the girls, so you can doubleteam them (which was hinted in the original but never happened).
I don't see any other way to make money, in the original game it was a little bit poorly implemented, but I don't think it was a bad idea. I don't like using cheats, but in the original game you're kind of obliged to not have to go to camp or wasting time. I think Eric was also poorly implemented, as I said before, how does a guy come to a boy and say he is going to fuck everyone in the house? It doesn't make a lot of sense, if he appeared as a nice guy, who was adorable to everyone but who had an evil plan, the story would be more interesting. I hope that in Aleksey90’s story each character has their own mood and that each one behaves in a certain way. The game comes on Friday the 13th and said that it has a lot of content and that in version 0.4 which will be the next one after this update it will bring aunt Kira and Eric.
* Most Ren'py games are easy to use cheats, so... I hope the game has great gameplay for players who don't want to cheat.

I'm gonna have to agree with you on this one. There was a lot of flaws in the writing that made for poor characters. The family was all a little to eager to suddenly move to the new house and a little too happy with the new random man that entered their lives. If there were stats to be viewed in the game, then it'd be as if you start the game with -50 affection with all the girls despite them being family while Eric seems to jump in with a +50 affection with them all. If it had been a bit more balanced it would've been interesting, but i think once again the problem is that DS didn't understand some of the fetishes properly and was just making a game where Max was supposed to be snooping around happy to watch Erik hooking up with his family. Total misunderstanding of incest fetish to the point that it was implemented as an NTR fetish!
There's lots of things that could be implemented to make money. If we're sticking to "Max can't leave the house because reasons" then he could always get an online job coding or phone support, transcribing, lots of stuff you can do from home. If you give him some options to go out into the world though, there's a ton more sexy options including the massage stuff he's already gotten some practice doing!

Would also be interesting to get some sort of feedback from the viewers.

Why we need cameras,when we can freely check what is happening.The house have huge windows and you can see everything.
Of course DS don't think about that.Just like the stream we can't watch.
The third way don't happen because it will be so stupid to help the guy who is working to take your house and kick you all out.
I completely agree with you on all your points there. In fact I had earlier even posted many of the same points but not with so much detail in them. Very well put.
I think that the reveal that he was planning to kick everyone out wasn't originally planned (like I said before, DS thought incest was just spying on your siblings having sex). It was added later to give a reason to kick Eric out instead. I really hope that particular plotpoint won't make it in the remake. Also, how would that even work? You can't just "steal" a house like that, and why would you even give up a house where four willing women live, just for the house?

Yeah so far looks like Eric's story is going to be a lot like original BB, but I'm all for a different plot with Eric.(In original Eric had a wife are girlfriend somewhere)

Ok I herd the same thing before, but I understand why some are confused about this. (Opening screen for BB) "THE INCEST STORY OF YOUR LIFE" Kind of funny from someone that did not understand incest.

Oh, that title screen is from when he still understood incest. Incest was just spying on your siblings and parents having sex. But people asked when there would be something more than just spying, and that's when he realised his definition of incest was wrong. And he doesn't understand how somebody could be attracted to someone from his own family. So yeah... not the first time someone uses a word they don't understand.
There are no reasons for enjoying spying if a member of your family doesn't attract you. Or max was attracted by eric?)))
