Hello internauts, long time lurker first time poster here.
I've come to this humble forum looking for guidance. But first a little background.
I'm one of those guys who knew nothing about the "visual novel" genre until word of Katawa Shoujo was spammed into my computer's screen. I played it, i enjoyed it, and went looking for more.
Several games were recommendated by some friends on those awkward moments when talking about anime and stuff, and because of it i've had some really good experiences while reading something! (crazy, i know rite?). Thing is after reading one great VN in each sub-genre (that i consider worth of my time) i've come to the point i have not much to dive in to.... pretty much because the Muv-Luv trilogy was too good, and it totally set the bar too high for me to enjoy anything else... i'll post some of the VN's i've read so you can get in context.
-Muv-Luv and Demonbane destoyed the sci fi aspect for me.
-Clannad and Kanon did a good job trying to make me feel something.
-Kira Kira, deardrops and Quartet because... idk, music, feels, stuff.
-G Senjou because is the Death Note of the VN's.
-Monster girl Quest, Kamidori Alchemy Meister and Utawarerumono because of the RPG gameplay aspect.
-Anything translated from Type-Moon
-Dengeky Stryker, because i became a sucker for nitro+ artwork. (yeah right nasty boy)
-Yume Miru Kusuri.
and i'm getting Kara no shoujo and Saya no Uta. But beside those 2 who seem to be good, anything else i should be looking for? (i've read the recommendation lists, but maybe a little more of background could help to decide which one to get next, a personal opinion would be good.)
I like dark atmospheres, Mystery, and the total oposite, action, mechas, fights etc. I don't care if the games contain adult content, or none at all as long as it is good enough to tell a good story.
PD: sorry if i made some,any English mistakes, you know the drill, non native speaker. And Thanks for reading.
