KiraKira has several of these small mistakes but the most noticeable is that they keep referring to Kirari's hair as being black (They also don't ever mention her iconic hair ornament but I guess that is more of an omission than an actual error)

...What madness is this? Jokes aside most of the time they feel like afterthoughts and because of it I don't really expect anything of them in the first place. Pessimistic, I know.

Are side routes ever not disappointing?

This looks right up my alley so I nabbed one of the early birds. They have given themselves a pretty tight schedule and considering what I have seen before I will be very surprised if they are able to keep it. But stranger things have happened I suppose.

I have turned off automatic scaling so full-screen for me. I get way to distracted when I play windowed. Black bars for life

So this really is just a Clannad bashing thread. ...Let me get in on this too. My problem isn't that it has a happy ending though (because I'm a sucker for cheesy happy endings) but that it is painfully abrupt and does not properly explain anything. If you're going to essentially overwrite everything that happened the last few hours you could at least have the decency to make it longer than it takes for me to finish my breakfast. Speaking of Key, Little Buster's ending also felt like chickening out. Maeda, If you want your happy endings, which again I have no problems with, properly set them up. Not these rushed Deux ex machina things. Honorable Mention also goes to VA-11 HALL-A for kinda just ending. Didn't even realize we were near the end until I got the Thank You mail. Felt like the author either ran out of inspiration or time. I wanted to go into more detail but it seems I can't get the spoiler function to work on my phone at the moment. Oh well, considering how popular these threads tend to get you won't have a shorthand of people telling you why your favorite ending sucks

Oh we're doing wishful thinking thread? Let me get in on this too. I would love to see '&' - Sora no Mukou de Sakimasu you ni - get translated. Mostly for this girl But alas so far the fickle gods of translation has not deemed it meant to be. Maybe one day. Or maybe I learn Japanese. Whichever.

Holy crap this is real. At least that poor dude on reddit that bet all his money that Trump would win will be happy. He was really freaking out after the whole video scandal. So at least someone out there has a happy ending

You keep mentioning the Yawgh but I would argue it's not really a Visual Novel. It's more a Choose Your Own Adventure game (well isn't that a mouthful) which is not really the same thing. It's also really short and does not have much in the terms of dialogue. Your comparison with Visual Novels and watching a TV-show is really why I can't see this idea working. It's the same like making a multiplayer movie, or a multiplayer book.

Dude, it's linear. No walkthrough needed. None of the choices actually affect anything

It probably can't really compare with the other recommendations here, but let's throw in Denkegi Stryker. Got some good ol' superhero action. Don't expect a masterpiece but if you're simply looking for some harmless fun then it got you covered.

Like I said, it automatically comes up when I start the game. And it won't accept a no for an answer Without the patch the game seems to work fine

If it does work then I have to be doing something wrong, because I keep getting this message when I start it

Well I won't say no to free stuff

Since you named yourself after Kurisu you probably already know this but Takumi from Chaos;Head is pretty weak human trash. On the oneesan-front, Kawakami Momoyo from Maji de Watashi ni Koishinasai! fits pretty well. Big sister type that is super stronk. She also got the boobs. Now if you actually want these two points together in the same VN, I got nothing. Sorry
