VN - Ren'Py - View of Family Resurrected - A Fan Remake [v0.1.7] [Aedos Games]

For me this is a short yet good introduction of a new game and recommended play. I'm not a huge fan of AI art and prefer real porn but the mix of both works for me and certainly allows for more creativity in posing scenes. The short intro includes plenty of lewd scenes, maybe even too many for the first few minutes but I can understand one wants to show off a little in a first release and the scenes are mostly well integrated into the story. I never played the original and it seems that one did not have a long history which leaves plenty of room for the remake to fill in missing bits and collect its own merits. The dev did not start with a patreon or SS account which underlines this game being a personal project and not just a money grab. As for the story, there will be no NTR/sharing but I hope he puts in some nice adversaries (father returns?) and obstacles to give us a challenge before conquering the love interests. As a fan of family corruption games I am looking forward to future releases of this one.

I don't understand why the dev claimed this is a 'resurrection' of View of Family. If you haven't made a game before, its almost inevitable that your first game is going to look like a pale shadow next to whatever its imitating.

Which is true here. AI CGs have come a long way in quite a short space of time, but these feel dated and of poor quality. Lots of dodgy artifacts in all the usual places, particularly faces. The replacement characters are not very appealing at all. Partly due to the poor art, and partly due to the dev trying to copy something without fully understanding what he's copying.

The story feels very generic. It has similarities to the original, but since porn games copy from each other, all the ideas have also appeared somewhere else since. you could change the name of this game, and I doubt many people who played the original would draw a connection between the two.

Which really begs the question, why bother? Unless you're really good, you aren't going to satisfy the fans of the original, which this doesn't even come close to, and those who didn't like the original, will likely be turned off this because of that association.

Between the weak quality, and the very high likelihood that this project won't survive anywhere near as long as the original, I can't see any reason to recommend this. I suppose it's more original than another Big Brother clone, but that's about all I can say in it's favour.

You should try it guys, it's really not that bad about what the other said. For me, i like the gameplay of it + also the model looks good to me. And of course I'm/you a fan of View of Family that's why I'm/your here.✌
