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

[beast_boy23]

prefer it, i don't really like having to waste a bunch of time figuring shit out.

 

[XPS3]

I don't really like using a walkthrough since it ruins the unpredictability factor.

 

[shauna]

with walkthrough, to know everything and not miss scenes.

 

[cheems]

for AVNs i always look for a wt mod or some guide. for regular VNs i try a few runs before using mods to find what i missed.

 

[zouxin]

Yeah, if it has a walkthrough, then I'll definitely use it.

 

[Delto]

If a game has a mod, I'll always download it! I don't wanna regret my choices later and have to go back to an older save. I want to know exactly what each choice does.

 

[stangnomez]

Yes. Most of the choices presented are bullshit to avoid being called a kinetic novel.

 

[maralina]

I usually use walkthroughs on my second playthrough

 

[Djehuty]

Yes. I hate playing for hours only to find out I'm out of the route or content I was aiming for. I especially hate when it's because one silly choice, or when the branching system is an obtuse and convoluted mess.

And I want more than a simple walkthough stating points gained or whatever. I want to know exactly what kind of content every route has, I want everything laid out before me, I don't mind spoilers.

 

[Qvuello]

I use always a WT mod if possible

 

[Sertinus]

Only if it has branching paths most of the time

 

[kikomascado]

Well, I do like having some choices, but I also don't like being locked out of future content. So I usually see (normally on the Ren'Py script itself) what flags get active and edit them of the conditions of the future outcome, as to get all scenes in a single playthrough.

I'm not one for multiple playthroughs. I hate replaying. So WT mods are a must for me. Play it through one time and get the ending i want.
Multiple paths and endings are a scam mostly, illusion of choice and endings are mostly just red, green, blue or happy, meh, sad. Doesn't matter if its in AAA games industry, indie or VN.

 

[robbiesmith123456]

If the game is complicated, I like a walkthrough mod. I don't want to take the time to figure out where I went wrong if the story takes a path I didn't intend.

 

[jbk304]

100% walkthrough. I like knowing what my options are. Otherwise I safe scum and that's not as much fun.

 

[nexus55555]

I prefer with walkthrough, dont want to miss anything

 

[banabad0912]

I'm absolutely using a walkthrough if it is available, mostly in VNs and sandbox games tho.

 

[ThatguyIII]

For a quicker fap, walkthrough, but when I want to see a story to make the fap more enjoyable, no walkthrough

 

[stangnomez]

Sisterly Lust was one of the first of these games that I played. At some point the game was "You wake up...nothing happens...you go to bed" over and over. I looked online and saw that I had locked myself out of most of the content because I picked the wrong answers.

Walkthrough

Always with a walkthrough mode. Some games have many branches and it give you a better experience if you know where a certain choice will lead you. Also... i play for amusement, i'm not looke for a challenge.
