Ren'Py Big Brother: Another Story Rebuild [v0.09.00] [Aleksey90]

[LucaNatoli]

What in the sex penis is rebuild version? can someone give me a quick run down?

Sure, i'll do my best. A rebuild is when the dev becomes so lazy to write the story, so instead they scrap the entire game, remove all content and start over just to add some new clothing or a tad better renders whilst taking the game back to bare bones. They will usually try to justify the move by saying the 'coding ' is cleaner in the rebuild, or the 'coding' had errors in the previous versions, which is usually a smoke screen.
They could have at least kept all the content and applied the new clothing / renders over the old ones.

then I don't like the fact that with the game already quite advanced I started all over again and added only very few scenes I'm not convinced

I wasn't thrilled about that either when I read about it months ago. By now I have made my peace with it. Let's see if the gameplay really will be smoother and the grind factor smaller, as promised.

Seems more of a tech demo.

It is.

So basically. it's another way of devs to milk the shit out of their Patreon instead of finishing their game? classic porn game devs move.

I think it means your current state to access that particular "undressness" state of her, meaning, if you haven't advanced into the story with her or your sneaking fu isn't good enough, you don't get to see her in all detail, have to play the game to get further, increase skills and her particular questline

at least that is how I understand it, because when she is clothed in other areas of the house, and you look at this same info window, then the image is of her in that particular attire and not pixelated

These do-over devs and games are the worst kind especially if update rates were just as atrocious as before. Whenever that happens, it's just time to chuck it out of your life especially those who have supported it before, at least that's how it should be.

I believe very few people were thrilled about the reboot. The issue is the time taken and the content already created may have justified a somewhat more robust release. I'm all for giving him the time to rebuild but I am sitting on the sidelines for now hoping for something a little more fulfilling. The good thing I see though is that he's really cleaned up a lot of the time-wasting content and streamlined the game for a more rapid story development. I just hope he has a story to fill it with. Said it before the root story is the Achilles heel of this so get rid of Eric or continue with him, the mold breaking event is what happens after and who successfully executes it. My opinion.

Have not played Glamour in a bit but when I stopped it was miles in front of all the other versions on the BB side. Have no idea where it's reached in it's storyline but I have seen a few updates since I've stopped. So I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be abandoned but who knows.

As this is a new game altogether, a new thread should be made and this marked as abandoned like all of the other Big Brother remake games.

Another day another 25 drive-by "WTF IS THIS SHIT THE DEV IS A SCAMMER" posts.

The game's not abandoned.
This rebuild seems to be about making the actual code/renders easier to work with and adding a new UI design and events, not "milking" his supporters.
It's also not "out of nowhere" either, been known about for months.

And before one of you calls me a "cuck" that "likes getting scammed" I'm not and have never been one of his supporters.

You're a cuck that likes getting scammed.

It's branched off into a college for sex slaves story and lip service to the old porn plotline unfortunately the max plot after mom loses her job is nonsense without playing the Kate side as well so you get to grind through the same stuff twice for 20 repetitions

Well, that sucks. honestly, he tried to reign in the stupidity "with the Big Kitchen scene event" but it missed the mark and descended again it seems. This story has a reasonable hook but pass a certain point to me they all start falling flat on the storyline. The most successful version to date for me for this story is Power Vacuum. It has a plot, a good villain, an MC that evolves as the game progresses. A lot of folks can't even remember Eric in it because it was handled properly and the game play is reasonable for a sandbox, I'll wait and see what BB_ASR comes up with but in my opinion a good story writer is needed to get pass the tripping point.

Hey keep it on topic, this thread's about how Aleksey is milking his supporters and wanting to see Eric sexually abuse his girlfriend/employee's naive overly-sheltered teenage daughter, not Glamour!

The writing is complete nonsense, even if I find it fun that Lisa was turned into a complete sex maniac, she turns every conversation into something about getting layed.
They want to go commercial, but keep filming everything with Smartphones and don't even rotate them for wide screen.

What's really bad about the game however, are the repetitions. Every update gets one new sequence, but to unlock everything in that sequence you have to do the same sh** over and over again, evey time the text will be a little different or a pic will be added. The rest of the time you spend fast forwarding to the next morning. One of Alice's events hat to be repeated 16(!!) times before reaching the final stage and I don't know how often the afternoon coaching had to be repeated.

And of course the old inconsitencies are back. Alice films Max taking Lisa from behind with Ann watching in the morning, and in the afternoon they are worried that Ann might find out about them.

Well I was trying to be a little easier on him but your right. Had a chat with DS once and told him that the way Ann's character was beings destroyed during the whole Alice in charge fiasco was too much to stomach and (I can say this now) he told me that things would be getting better and the hold on for the next update. That was just before the version where Ann found out about the cameras and I thought "ok let's see where this goes". The scene where Ann addresses the nonsense going on up to that point was what I thought was a course correction in that VN, then.... the floor fell out and the story crashed for me. played the early parts of Max in college then stopped. I've said in other places (maybe here too, not sure) the home is in need of money, someone is threatening your home and mom, you've no idea why your house came to your family out of the blue with a hidden monitoring system built in, no idea what your father does to have money to build a house like that to give to you guys. Are there any hidden rooms or items in the house that you should know about, what are the neighbors like yet and the only thoughts on your mind is to walk around trying to bone the women of the house (this is Glamour generally but can be applied to all versions). There is so much story to build on but generally devs miss this and that why the team that gets a good storyteller to be will most likely finish the unfinishable story to me. By now we all know the basics what I'd like to know is what else is there?
