Recommending Lesbian Protagonist Games List (My Version)

[EndlessNights]

Hypothetically, would the people here be interested in a thread where I recommend and discuss games and VNs I find worth highlighting?
It would be mostly, if not entirely, made up of games already listed here, but I would talk about why I think the ones included are noteworthy.
I considered doing that on this thread but I'm not sure people would appreciate me flooding it with my opinionated walls of text.

While I'm sure most of us here greatly appreciate whenever you share your analysis on this thread, I think starting your own rec thread is a fantastic idea. I have two suggestions/requests for you. I'd like to see you cover all ages VNs as well as adult games and also discuss other media such as manga from time to time. I don't know if F95zone as a whole is ready for this, but I'd definitely love to hear your takes on Desert Hearts and The Hunger!

I haven't come across many personal rec lists here that focus on lesbian games even on a secondary basis so this would definitely be a welcome addition to the site. Jufot's Story-first games thread is very much worth reading, but you'd have to do your own research to figure out which games listed are lesbian. Some time ago I tried to convince LadyOfSpiders to make her own list...she was unfortunately completely uninterested. Perhaps you'll end up encouraging some of the other regulars to follow your example in time. Eve, Goku, 262177, and damnedfrog would all do a great job with their own rec threads I'm sure!

I have plans to do a list of my own eventually as well (the walls of text will be endless, of course). It won't be lesbian only, but I want to have dedicated sections on the first post for listing my favorite lesbian protagonist and route games.

The drawback I see about opening another lesbian games list thread, is that games risk to be spread among many list. I already follows another lesbian games list. Some game are listed only in one of the threads, other are duplicate in each list. With another thread, I fear this will dilute visibility of lesbian games instead of enhancing it .
Perhaps you could use SPOILER tag to hide your opinionated walls of text if you fear to flood that thread to much.

But if you open your own thread, I will following it for sure.

I'm honored someone might want to read my nonsense rambles in bad Frenglish prose, but like I wrote previously, I fear opening too much thread on the subject will just reduce the visibility of lesbian games.
And above all, I'm definitely too lazy to open and maintain a thread

Hmm. I wouldn't expect that would really be a problem because GreenDark most likely wouldn't be starting a thread called, "Another Lesbian Protagonist Games List" or anything like that. Instead, it would probably be called something like, "GreenDark's Rec List" or "Delving Into the GreenDarkness: A Few of My Most Twisted Favorites." Her list would be something personal to her and just cover the particular games that she wants to talk about. It wouldn't really be a competitor to this thread or anything like it in scope since CBoyC95 is a neutral party who tries to list all the games that fit the criteria as they come out whether they're good, bad, or somewhere in between.

Thank you all for the encouragement and comments on the idea.

I'm not opposed to talking about content outside the scope of what F95 is centered around. But I would need to have knowledge of what it is we're talking about. I don't read much manga or watch many movies or anime. But I play a lot of games. So F95, with its focus on games and VNs fits my tastes.

As EndlessNights already said, my goal isn't to have yet another all-comprehensive list with hundreds of entries. I don't want to replace or compete with this thread. It's a situation where something I want doesn't exist yet so I'm thinking of taking a shot at creating it myself. My thread would only list games I've personally played and found some quality in. This thread here is and will most likely always be the essential one for people looking for lesbian games to try.

And above all, I'm definitely too lazy to open and maintain a thread

That's something I worry about as well. CBoyC95 is a hero for keeping this thread going and consistently updated.

In any case, whether or not I decide to do it, don't expect it too soon. I would have to figure out how to format it and have some recommendations ready to go.

OK, I didn't understand well what you have in mind, sorry.
If you ever open you own thread, I will certainly following it.

HEY!
If everybody is lazy as I am, we will never go anywhere

Would love to see such threads in general. General lists like this one are invaluable, but a lot of games get added at unplayable/early stages and there's no way of knowing if they have grown unless you stumble upon them randomly again. So yeah, it would be wonderful if you'd share your experiences in a structured way. Comments get lost after a few pages.

First of all, anything by Angela He is great. Idk how I feel about it being here, it just doesn't feel like it fits but idc honestly.

Also something that mildly annoys me is when a game on here has a female characters name in its title but the game has a male protagonist. If you were going to make a game that revolves, or takes a focus, on a character why would you not just have the player play from that character's perspective. A title like the life of gydie jram (name is pronounced judy gram) and we play as her husband or brother or roommate and get only an outsider's perspective on her life.

Ah yes, the cooties filter. For all intents and purposes, you want the player to have control of the female character, but you don't want to say that the player is playing as the girl because then that's the player getting fucked by dudes and that's gay. Easiest way to ruin a game IMO.

(I'm also not counting NTR/cuck games in that - they are actually trying to hit a specific fetish, even if it's not one of mine)

Male protagonists are almost always completely vacuous nothings of characters by design. Most of it's made for straight men so any men in them are meant to be self-inserts, so much so a lot of hentai is literally drawn with grey, featureless men that are basically mannequins.

It's an incredibly stupid intersection of wanting to see women hop on dicks but without seeing other dude's dicks cause that's like totally gay bro!

Does anyone already know this one? Already on the list? You can play a female character and have a servant girl. No futa, but strap-on

Tell me about it. Some devs will have all their promo art be focused on a woman kicking as or being interesting but it turns out that some random guy is the mc. If your guy mc isn't interesting enough to use in the promo materials than the woman that you do use should probably be the mc instead.

I wish there is more lesbian game with non-human protagonist.
I really wish I can go full DIO and say "I ABANDONED MY HUMANITY [Insert Cute Girl Name]!!!" Then become a Monster Girl that corrupt others to the Yuri Monster Girl side.

Or Something like "Succubus Possessing a Girl" BUT BECAUSE I'M GAY AS FUCK THE SUCCUBUS ONLY FUCK GIRLS!!!

 

[UntrustableBackstabber]

Added Draconic Date

Tried this one and feels quite disappointed that Not only it is short, it feels cringe, and IT IS NOT A LESBIAN GAME.
Basically the protag is genderless until the last scene where you can choose if the protag is male or female then the "Game"... Just end. MULTIPLE PROTAGONIST TAG IS A LIE.

I WANT TO BE A RETARDED DRAGON GIRL THAT KIDNAP PRINCESS.

Honestly I don't trust multiple protagonist anymore. They are usually just a way for dev to gain more viewer by putting female protagonist tag on a male protagonist game.

Make the horny games you want to see in the world. I'm working on one right now.

Already write stories but not game.
One about a Menhera Rich and Beautiful Villainess that wish someone to accept her for her twisted personality not her beauty.
The other is
a weird Post Apocalyptic Fantasy World that get used as a Megacorporation experimenting ground.
