i do agree with you on that note that there need to be balance if game is to be "game" not book with renders or fap fest where story is second to sex scenes (nothing wrong with that i also "play"Tough question. Not enough choice and the AVN gets labeled as a "Kinetic Novel." Too much choice and it drifts away from AVN into more a "porn game" than a story.
My own preference is on the story side. Personally, I prefer to explore the environment as a story with some character development. That's a big part that is lost when there are "too many choices," whether those choices are actions or LIs. The more choices, the harder it is for characters to have any depth to their personalities, let alone opportunities to grow (for the record, I'm not considering penile growth and pregnancy growth as character growth).
isnt it sad that project labeled as "kinetic novel" are trashed upon on this forum for that particular difference that is lack of choices?
