I’m curious! Do you guys prefer straight-up visual novels with great writing or do you enjoy more interactive, open-world adult games? Cast your votes!

Is this and paralyzed1 simply alt accounts? Because you both created your accounts within 3 minutes of each other yesterday and are currently doing exactly the same kinds of posts right now.

Either way: You know, instead of creating three threads to get your 3 post minimum to add links to your comments --- you could simply participate in one, two, or three of the quarter of a million threads already created.

There are much more, each of them similar naming style, similar creation date. All made question threads at a similar time and all are online at the same time.

Yeah i know this is just one of a dozen alts but still, i enjoy answering questions like this bc lots of recent threads are too specific on one thing or another

A game cant be a game without gameplay, and clicking is NOT gameplay

100% agree reading text walls or books is boring..
i prefer reading short wikis or comics/porn magazines and hentai stuff

depends on the game. if you ever have to click "wait 00:15" that's not immersive and annoying! I think the better games are ones that give you actual gameplay mechs like Karryn's Prison rather than some visual novel.

its easy to think of VNs as just the few boring crappy ones u played that wasted ur time. as long as it has interactive mechanics like a dating sim or actually impactful choices, it can be rather engaging. club detention and holiday island for example don't get boring bc you're doing stuff. eternum is written so well it doesnt matter that you can go over an hour with no decisions

edit: poggies i formatted this right

holiday island was on my radar for sometime already, eternum looks a bit interesting as at least some of the visuals look good

dunno, I'm just generally tired of the low effort most devs put into storytelling in their VNs. "It's a porn game!" - this is how they justify an absolute lack of creative writing, coherent plot and engaging story. Most novels are just lazy effort at approaching certain kink and even that is usually done poorly.
