As said in the title, I'm searching for games where I'll get attached to the characters enough to be emotionnaly invested in the story. I want to care about what happens to them.
I guess it's what everyone seeks (to a point), and it's very, VERY subjective of course, but I'm sure some of you can point me in the direction of some games I haven't played that could scratch that itch for me.
It can be anything really, be it a 3D rendered visual novel, an anime-style RPG Maker game or someting else. I just don't care about HTML text-based projects, I still need some kind of visuals to enjoy.
I like nice people in general. That means I like to see people getting along, caring for each other and asking for consent, for example. It however doesn't mean I dislike the contrary : if the plot needs blackmail or anything darker to progress (and if it's tied to sexy visuals) I won't mind. But if the game is only "male protag forces women to sleep with him" I'll get bored rather quickly.
I can cite a few games that got me invested in the past:
- The Humbling Experience : The protagonist is nice and cares for the other characters (and her sexual axakening is a huge turn on for me). A shame it got abandonned.
- Lisa : The whole game is pretty well-written and the protag is nice and witty, but I especially enjoyed and genuinely cared for the character of Aoife.
- Fetish Locator (Weeks 1 & 2, not 3) : It may sound stupid, but it's one of the only games where the male protag consistently asks for consent. He cares for every girls, and as such they all care in return, making the whole game really pleasant.
- Another Chance : The cast is cute and you get points from the girls by listening to what they like. Only drawback for me is the counter-intuitive point & click quests, but with the hint system it's not that big of a deal.
I guess I was invested in the story of other games (I recall spending a good amount of time reading the dialogues in Legend of Queen Opala or Treasure of Nadia for example), but nothing else comes to mind.
Thank you!
