Reading through the thread i saw that some games were on the list and then removed at some point. It is your list of course, but may i suggest that instead of completely removing games you don't like/recommend anymore, you put them in a separate list in the first post.
i think that my criteria for "good story first game" is a bit less strict then yours so a lot of games that you removed i still like and I am sure that many people are the same, so it would be beneficial to have "Games that i recommended once, but not anymore" list

The list is mainly VNs lmao. I guess some people call those games...
Anything with gameplay with a good story?

What would you describe as gameplay? I think peeple's Version of gameplay varies as well. I would recommend Last Sovereign and yes, your Grace. As those are gameplays with great stories.

list the things you think are good, like i did

maybe i missed the games you think are good. I'm always on the lookout for good-story games.

Currently playing the beginning of Sicae.

A point that i was trying to make was that there are a lot of games that jufot doesn't like but many others do, and when someone new comes here, they have to read through 170 pages to find suggestions for good games (other then the ones in op of course). But of course I also understand that list in OP is his taste so it makes sense not to add games there (even as separate list)

Anyway, here are some games I like, but most were already discussed previously

Defending Lydia Collier
Artemis
Projekt: Passion
Between Two Worlds
Chasing Sunsets
Dreams of Reality
Snow Storm
Banking on Bella
Desert Stalker - definitely on the porny side but story is good also
City of Broken Dreamers - went downhill since first chapters, but i think that it still has potential if it finishes good
The Swordbearer
How to Fix the Future
Leap of Faith
The Intoxicating Flavor
Depraved Awakening

this thread is already hidden as it is. A person have to go out of their way to either check General Discussion section, or find it from some people's signature mentioning this thread.

I think i found it through signature myself. I don't remember whose signature it was though

I'm trying to say utilizing search bar is a bit of an obstacle and not everyone uses it but, it's not that high of a bar either.
I don't read hundreds of pages back either, I just use search bar myself.
Ultimately, it's their thread so they can list or not list whatever they want

I don't remember why i didn't have Between Two Worlds on my backlog. How to fix the future is there, COBD is what i thought of when i say "vehicle for scenes delivery"

It's just sex after sex after sex I had to force myself to go through the chapters

First few chapters were good, story seemed interesting, but yep, later chapters its just sex. Hopefully since there will only be 1 or 2 more updates, it focuses more on a story and has a nice conclusion.

They are. Shame TV Drummer is nothing like book Drummer :(
TV Drummer is awesome, but going back on my hazy memory wasn't TV Drummer an amalgamation of about 4 different book characters? So there was no book Drummer? Bits of Michio Pa and Bull etc were all folded in to make the TV series require a couple less actors.
