[..]learning renpy and HS2.
You're doomed.

There are simply too many visual novels out there and too many have Daz3D/HS2 graphics. If you're going for a memorable game, you would need something more advanced. I'd reccomend scrapping the entire VN part since you need to be the next J.R.R. Tolkien or just get lucky like all the other VN's. Ren'py also can't simulate 3D or collisions or physics or anything else a basic engine can do.

First you would need to plan out your gameplay. What kind of game would it be, how would it be fun, what makes it unique, and all the other basics of game design. The gameplay should always come first, and should be the primary focus. Find a way to wrap the story around the gameplay instead of stuffing gameplay into a story.

To make it an actual adult game, you'd need to understand presentation (there's a link on my banner or whatever below). You don't want galleries full of one-off scenes or random minigames that give a render, since that creates a disconnect between the gameplay and porn. Instead, find a way to intergrate the sexual content into the gameplay, like a sex attack. There should be a reasonable way to well.. 'finish' during gameplay.

I mean, you did say you wanted "the best game out there", and this is what would be required.
