It is supposed to be a game, not a movie. Of course I like some gameplay parts like grinding, as long as it doesn't become a chore.
I even miss the old point system of Living with Temptation compared with having to wait an entire in-game week for an event.
Just having sex from the start is boring. There are movies for that.
The problem is finding games with compelling or, at least, funny plots. I'm tired of the teenager/young adult who returns home and suddenly has all girls (including the ones from his family) lusting after him.
I like games which give you the option of adding a walkthrough mod.
This said, I have an issue with those requiring specific, often counter-intuitive choices to advance the plot. Like Seaside Mystery or the Twist by KsT.
