You must be registered for see element. .. the GOAT
You must be registered for see element. .. some very different choices for how to interact with characters
You must be registered for see element. .. really different paths
All of those have some significant emotional hits. Meaningful...
Maybe devs could have an option to unlock gallery once the player completes at least one path?
There was one game where I played and decided I did not want to go to effort for the missed scenes so just opened up the renpy code and twiddled the bits to unlock the gallery so I could enjoy the...
No. Because some slice of life stories are emtional .. not all are .. and not all emotional stories are slice of life.
Stories that bring up emotions in the player/reader. Not just lewd emotions but all manner of emotions. Stories where we can say "that hit me right in the feels".
Leap of...
Recently .. You must be registered for see element. is some of the highest quality writing in a AVN I have ever seen. Very story heavy and not a ton of sexy times .. although the lewds there are are great. But emotionally engaging story.
Classic .. Now and Then was very suprising. The art is...
I do not run the exe's that come with the games. I use renpy to run the games code .. not certain protection against malware but it does reduce some avenues.
Anais Nin is my fave erotic writer. Her colleague Henry Miller was okay, but Nin was tops.
Too many good books out there to list .. but given what others have said here I think some will like
For scifi, the Mars trilogy by Kim Stanly Robinson .. "Red Mars" "Blue Mars" "Green Mars"
I have always chosen knocking up the LIs when a VN offers that path.
I would like to see a heavy romance story VN go further and follow through on the relationship of parenting from birth onward. Not involving the kids in incest .. but a loving couple (or harem) raising kids well.
If it is a game focused on the lewds I might skip a lot. And repeat some ;)
If it is a story centered game I will usually hang in unless the writing is really bad. No time measure on that. Just when my patience is done.
I have also given up on a couple games that went places I really do not...
I would like an "emotional" .. or "right in the feels" :LOL: .. tag for stories that hit emotions.
The "romance" tag does not cover this. Many romance stories are emotional .. but not all. And some emotional stories aren't romance.
Some examples of games with "emotional" parts: Leap of Faith...
I do not usually watch anime .. but "Attack on Titan" was suggested to me and turned out really good. Definitely bingeable.
LOTS of story twists to keep you interested. Some really weird stuff .. in a good way!
