All what i care about is staying in the same route of Original BB , I hope that they ask the Original Dev about what he was thinking/ planning for the unfinished opportunities .
And Alesky already did good work with Characters, same personalities and EXACTLY same Design without changing the face details.
( Maybe Kira , but she's more beautiful now )

Most of these big brother continuation sort of made sense when Dark Silver abandoned it, but with the story being introduced and integrated into Glamour all the big brother copies end up looking and feeling like poorly executed fan projects by talentless hacks.

Well, I like this poorly executed fan project by a talented hack. Ride on, Aleksey!
Have you played the Max route in Glamour lately? It's terrible. Yes, you can fuck everyone but all of them are just mindless fucktoys. There's no story. The original BB is better than Glamour by far IMO. And Aleksy's BB is better than the original BB if you're only comparing up to the same level of progress. Kind of hard to compare a version where you can fuck everyone to a version where you can't yet.
Most adult games have questionable justification for a lot of the sex scenes but they at least try to give some kind of plausibility to it. Glamour doesn't bother with that at all for most of them. Ann actively encourages Lisa to fuck Max right in front of her and doesn't care at all if Max fucks her whole family. There's really no build up at all. You could argue about how plausible Max's conquest of each girl was in the original BB but at least there was some attempt at building up to it.
Lisa's path in Glamour basically amounts to this. Max tells Lisa he'd like to be her boyfriend. Lisa says ok, but I don't know what to do so lets ask Mom to give me some dick sucking lessons. Ann agrees but says if you guys want to fuck I want to watch so you have to do it in front of me. Done. Now max can fuck his sister right in front of his mom. Also, Alice becomes even more of an insufferable bitch than in the original BB.

I agree, and I don't think DS ever had a plain to finish BB. I'm not saying he's talentless, but his main talent has always been ripping of supporters.
I disagree. I enjoy both of them but Max is not a complete dick in this. The Max in Glamour is an absolute asshole. To me that is the biggest reason I prefer this version. I also like that the characters are generally more true to their character. In Glamour they just act based on what the plot requires of them. Also something about the lighting and models is better in this version. It is brighter.
Sorry to interrupt, but could you remind me of which game this picture is from. Just recently I remembered this game, but I couldn't remember its name.)
I made the mistake of thinking BadBobby and BigBrother were the same thing. (Cause lets face it, half the models are the same, and the storyline is extremely similar)
Unrelated - is this games current version radically different from walkthrough? Nothing seems to matchup so far, like I'm in the week after having met eric, and there's no bank or research bank option on computer...

To add my two cents to the debate of "take the time to do things right"... Yes obviously that is the way to go.
I really like what I see here a lot. Adding extra flair to the day-to-day is very important.
The way Aleksey has already improved the peeking for example is excellent. These are events you repeat a LOT. And now, you want to, since there's so many variations. So adding this kind of complexity should be entirely worth it.
Rendering new scenes with improved techniques or newer generation models is also obviously a good idea. However I don't think there's much value in re-doing most existing scenes. They are definitely more than acceptable already. The difference in visual quality between genesis 3 and 8 is almost not noticeable to me.
For me, Big Brother was basically the first "post-Patreon" game I ever played. It was the big one that inspired countless others to get into the business of making these games. It holds a special place for me and it's still a game I can sink so much time into. This remake is without a doubt the best one that's out there and a real testament to what the original game could/should have become.

I agree - leave the existing scenes alone and focus on going forward.
I've seen a number of AVNs redo the hair and skin tone (tanning...) of characters so that it is easier to animate or better reflects where the story is now/simply improves the way various NPC's and the MC look.
If needed (and not used ad nauseum), they can simply drop in a narrative sequence... "Ann got a small bonus and decided to treat the ladies of the family to a nice spa day, including beauty treatments and a visit to a quality hair salon".
The only other issue is the timing of this change, so that there is no need to redo certain early repetitive sequences with the new models.

So if the changes take place on day 1 as mentioned.
This version of the game is now trash, you will need to start everything over.
Or am I wrong?
The reason I am asking, brings up another question.
Will the first release be just an into? Or will it have some actual gameplay?
If the 2nd is the case, I don't see how a timely release is really possible.

No Kira preview :-( I'm a sad panda Other than that if it makes the game flow better, less grindy and less likely to unexpectedly close all your options because you picked the wrong choice on day 4 I'm all for it

I'd try if I understood the question. What is the latest hint in this opportunity and what does the walkthrough suggest?
School Girl : I can't progress in my mission. I stayed at the nipple show.
Lisa shows her boobs. does not progress any further. other missions are waiting for this mission.

Not 100% certain but I think you need to talk to Kira next if you're where I think you are
