I was scared by the grind. However do we have some content here or not?

But seems socialism gone down the swanny when I was old enough to buy thinks myself (a short period before end of GDR): no queues, no empty shelves, all the fun gone -.-
You see in the UK queueing is not borne out of any need or thoughts of necessity, we do it as a national past time. Add to that we can whinge to some random stranger about the weather because it's too hot/cold/dry/wet (delete as appropriate)

Your story reminds me of the story my father told me of his visit to Soviet Moscow - in the street people were queueing for a loaf of bread, while the hotel his company booked him had no shortage of anything.

I was scared by the grind. However do we have some content here or not?
Very little - from what I could see in the pictures there was a HJ and a BJ, nothing with your wife, though, which could be telling for the scenario, but how you access them in game...your guess is as good as mine.

So, did Perestrelo hop onto the "Ren'py with 3d forever in Alpha or Beta mode and grap cash train"?

No official finish update for the first one? Did he make a statement or smth? Welp, probably behind a paywall :p
0.1.. from what I've read and knowing his style from the first one.... endless grinding nearly unplayable without modding or cheating (at least for me, even thou I spent quiet some time at the first one figuring out everything, making notes and whatever). So... like 5h of grinding or smth like that for... 0.1 version images?
Imho it's sad that he dropped that RL-Image-Theme. Good or ok'ish RL-Themed games are quite rare (at least that's what I think). Will probably try it at like... 0.7 or smth (depents on the changelogs and if someone manages or want to create a mod for it).

I sincerely hope not, because this current one means much longer wait times to me. Increased render times versus real footage clipping, is just one example.

Really dont know what the dude is thinking, but ah well, something to keep an eye on.

I'm with you there. I always enjoy a game with real images. And even though Family Life was quite grindy, with mods it became an enjoyable experience. I sincerely hope he continues development.

I just can't over the fact that the females have very male facial structures and the male looks like a ladies boy.

No, you're right. It is for the earlier QSP version. That was the version I was referring to as well.

I haven't tried *this* Family Life 2 yet, and I don't think I will. At least not till it reaches decent content and becomes less grindy

Maybe you're right, now it's rather very frustrating as the only person I can have any interaction is dear Lola, so I basically am totally cut off from my family, and from internet as it seems I can not get any training to oppose Lola's influence here...
And the deliveryman is somewhere where I can not reach him in time to receive the items.....

Thanks for the feedback, not a big fan of the dev but i almost tried this one, as it was a sequel, i thought he had improved somewhat (like hack and stalk vs hack and stalk 2 ).

I'll stay clear from his production, there's enough terrible games to waste my time on out there ;-)

I found a way round that one at least...press F1 you get the help menu and you can save or load from there.

Shame really I read the premise and it seemed like a unique take on the corruption...your family has been corrupted, you can learn how it's done and corrupt them to your ends (I also read between the lines and got corrupt the corruptor, but probably wrong) or you can be corrupted yourself.
The renders are a mess - dirty streaks all over the skin for starts.
The interface is a mess - 1st thing had to run unren just so I could resize the screen
Dev menu is mostly Russian, so it was a guess to see the varibles.
Did I mention the interface is a mess - no way to interact with anyone other than Lola. Can't find the hand carrier to take out the camera etc etc etc...
Maybe someone way brighter than me can take it an tidy it up.
how to take out camera, empty inventory by drop wine etc in kitchen if you take any, if inventory full there is no option to take it


i already have camera in hand carrier, mood laura wonderfull , i still cant take photo

The synopsis seems like a modified Big Brother.
That's what I thought too! It really felt like he's making his own Big Brother game but with his own caracters. Even the buying stuff from his computer and the "masage lessons", it feels copied. Does anyone else have trouble keeping the people apart? I spend an hour playing and I still didn't know who was who. Probably because the characters are very generic and imo, don't look that great...
