I skim through the text as I skip, and if I catch anything interesting I go back and read it. but most of the time it's not worth the effort
 
When they're well written, yes. Alas, it's rare, it's often the same clichés, but fortunately, some of them are thrilling.
 
Imho only idiots download games just to watch pictures, there are enough pictures without games.
(Most) Games are about the story, those without a proper story are recycle bin decoration.

Problem is when they want the story to be the length of like War and Peace before there's anything good.
 
I dont see a problem there. I would play many games without the sex scenes, in fact i skip most of them anyway, especially with male protagonists. I'll never undestand people who confuse games with porn.
 
Absolutely, for me the story is the most important part of a visual novel. In my opinion, its what sets visual novels apart from anything you can find on pornhub, or wherever else you find your erotic material. Visual novels primary focus should be story, with adult and erotic elements to add more spice to the story. Most VN's from my perspective that forget this, don't tend to last very long.
 
I am very interested in the story of a VN. I appreciate it when developers are putting a lot of effort in writing a good story with interesting characters. In my humble opinion that makes the difference between mediocracy and excellence.
 
It depends on the story. If the writing is good then the images are nothing more than an extra bonus. But there are some games where I just skip a ton. My New Family is a good example. It’s just so repetitive and the dialogue doesn’t push the story forward.
 
if the game is good enough i read them, for example Desert Stalker. Also, there should be no long dialogues
If I understand the story without reading the story, there is no need to read it.
 
I always start off reading the story, but if I'm not hooked within 30 min to an hour, I'll skip to a sex scene to see if the game is worth continuing. I would say 90% of the games I play, I'll read the story fully without skipping.
 
Depends on how well it's written, I don't want to read through a bunch of boring coworker interactions, but I do love reading through a good sexual tension buildup
 
Nope, fuck that shit. Well, only on the very few god-tier games i love, otherwise it's skip all the way to the good bits.
 
I full read every game I play. To be honest, if the story don´t catch me and skipping all the time, I drop the game imminently. Why bother when not read the story? Than I could watch a video.
 
If you just want to look at sexy pictures, go to an imageboard or something. Much less of a hassle than skipping through a VN.

I choose VNs over random images because the context of the sex scenes matters more to me than the scenes themselves. And that context generally comes from the story.
 
I read thr story, it makes the game interesting. If the story is bad or full of spelling errors I'll delete the game. If I want to jerk off to no plot I'll just go to pornhub
 
The whole reason of Visual Novels is to read them, people who skip the dialogue and just play to see the sex are lame.
 
I'd say it's vital to read the text. So many games are ignored because of sub-par graphics. The plot is where the gold is.
 
If not at least trying to pay attention to the story, then what is the purpose doing this as a game?
 
Yes, if it bores me or stops interesting me, I stop playing it.
