discussion Do you enjoy games that have/require a walkthrough?

[MattShizzle]

I don't think any game "requires" a walkthrough. If you are going for 100% then yes but if you are cruising through to just enjoy then none are required.

Some badly made ones you get stuck at certain points without one..

 

[juustomestari]

Yes, when the game is done badly and you have no idea what you need to do. For triple A games there is no need unless you are hunting achievements.

That have a walkthrough? Sure, I'm not looking to sink 100 hours into getting every variation of every scene in a game. I'll take the help getting the most out of a single playthrough. That require a walkthrough? I can, but it definitely hurts the experience. As much as I enjoyed Robozu's story and art I haven't touched the game since getting 100% using the walkthrough.

Difficulty in an adult game is a Very Bad Thing.

Yes I would (and do), I don't want to play a game only to find out some of the choices I made are now blocking the ending I was going for.

Games that make 1 little thing block everything with a girl for the rest of the game suck.

Sometimes it is helpful to get all the scenes. But on first playthrough I just do it how I see fit with the choices

save after every choice and reload

Walkthroughs are convenient but not required for me

 

[Uncle Loco]

At this point, my time is limited so if there is no walkthrough available that is clear how to get the content I want to see, I typically avoid the game. I really enjoy games with a good story to them and I would rather focus on the story than worry that if I didn't pick up a random pen in chapter 1 I would miss out on a lewd scene with the one character I have been waiting on for so many updates. Now if the choices of the game are simple like add a girl yes or no, then I can see that no mod is needed. I wish more devs would just add a walkthrough mod for the best paths or at least their recommended paths.

I hate having to play a game with multiple saves just to see all the content I want to see as well. That is probably just me problem though, as I typically avoid non-harem games.

 

[OkLok]

Absolutely. It usually means that the game has a good amount of content or branching paths, though if the WT is some crazy, downright unreadable mess that has a bunch of switches to trigger different branches (that end up being almost identical to each other) I'll skedaddle out of there.

 

[stumpy007]

definitely a no, like someone posted earlier, not really enjoyable to constantly spam the back button if there wasn't a walkthrough, so why would you enjoy having to basically cheat to try and appreciate the game, maybe it comes down to choices being overly complex in terms of divergent paths versus the best games having a moderate mix of choices and endings.

 

[AbbaDoo]

I love games where choices can put you on different paths. In such games, a walkthrough is often needed because of otherwise hidden modifiers and triggers that are needed to change to a different path. So, yes, very pro walkthrough.

There have been games in the past that I have played and did not realize they branched in different directions until I installed a WT mod.

 

[Deleted member 112516]

Generally i will watch for a walkthrough if the game have some grind in it or if the sandbox mode is not well " clear " with the choice.

 

[punnknight]

Another thing - minigames suck the festering cum out of a dead skunk's rotting dick and shouldn't be included in adult games.

i think summer time saga had some good ones before the infinite tech update

 

[Squeeky]

I agree with this post.

A walkthrough at least implies some amount of path choice. I do like path choice, and I also appreciate the walkthroughs.

As a fantasy medium, it's nice to have the power of foresight.

 

[dereguedeixe]

I always go for walktrough mods. But some games like milfy day really get on my nerves on how they did it. Honestly, i love games like filf that show you where you need to go and where there it is new things. Specially on sandbox games

 

[IFF01]

I like to have a walk through for the games the developers make to complicated, Sometimes it is near impossible with out one. I have been caught more than once where I dont have a clue what to do next.

 

[LongSlongSilver]

depends on the VN but i prefer a PDF walkthrough to a mod because mods can normally bring bugs with them

Prefer an included. Having to switch between the game and a pdf is a pain in the ass like a hemorrhoid spurting blood and pus. TBH if it's not possible without a walkthrough it's not really a game.
