discussion Do you prefer playing a VN with a Walkthrough Mod. Why/why not?

generally always on my 2nd play through i like to then know what my decisions mean takes the guess work out

I haven't played VNs for ages. At first, scenario driven games had some appeal, but at some point, the limitations became too suffocating. Returning to limited and rigid choices after playing sandbox games is kinda impossible for me.
I'd prefer to use an AI chat rpg to *any* VN now.

I don't want to play my VN again and again just to get 1 scene i missed so i play with walkthrough or if there is multimod it even better

Right? I can appreciate branching story lines, but at a certain I think devs can go a bit overboard and I at least like knowing if a decision is consequential or not. Trying to figure out what the dev thinks is the 'right' path for a given playthough can be frustrating sometimes

right especially when it's a choice of opinion. my opinion will always be different than dev so just getting punished because devs and my opinion dosent match is crazy

I usually prefer playing with a walkthrough mod to make sure I get the best choices; however, there are some games where I have a save without the mod.

Always sometimes you can miss out on characters depending on the game
