But I do spend way too much time on hentai, but not as much as I did back when I was 13 and had first discovered ecchi anime. Those were the days Kawasumi 1 Quote
ChaosRaven Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 I like mystery of all kinds: More serious stuff like Innocent Grey VN's or Ever17, with a healthy bit of moe and chuuni like G-Senjou no Maou or with a more erotic touch and vampires like Kiriya Hakushakuke no Roku Shimai or Bishoujo Mangekyou -Norowareshi Densetsu no Shoujo-. Still hoping for Caucasus from Innocent Grey to be picked up by MangaGamer or Jast. Though judging by the sales of KnS2 it doesn't look to good I fear. I also like fantasy, especially classic medieval western style like the stuff from Eushully (not necessarily with gameplay though) or asian style 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms' like Koihime Musou. I wish someone would finish the translation of August's Aiyoku no Eustia. Maybe I shouldn't wait and just gor for the half-translated version and read the rest in Japanese. The fan translation of Shin Koihime Musou is also at the top of my wish list. And I like VN's with knight girls, like Walkure Romanze, Seikishi Melty ☆ Lovers and especially Unionism Quartet. The expansion for Unionism Quartet was announced today, so I'll play that as soon as it's available. Trap protagonist stories also have a strange attraction on me for some reason I can't really explain. I guess it's the strange mixture of semi-yuri, wolf in sheep's clothing feeling and the constant thrill of being discovered that makes it kind of interesting. I really liked Otoboku (both anime & VN) and I really like to see more from Caramel Box. I'm also bullying MangaGamer for some time now to license Navel's Tsuriotsu series. Unfortunately with little luck so far *sigh*. But at least I've gotten some Japanese stuff from Ensemble to read for this year. Besides that I can almost read everything as long as it's good, has shiny art and isn't too fetish heavy or depressing. Templarseeker 1 Quote

CeruleanGamer Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 I thought Clephas is the Messiah, aka Jesus when it comes to untranslated moege visual novels. Quote

TexasDice Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 My favorite genre, as whole? Comedy. From a writing and audience standpoint, it is actually really hard to make bad comedy (unless you're this guy). Even an average comedy VN should always give you enough to laugh for you to consider it worth your time. And no, I'm not saying that making shit is okay, as long as you shoehorn in a reference to get a laugh or two. What I wanted to get at, is that coming up with a decent comedy is usually easier than writing a good drama, hence why there are less bad comedies than there is awful drama. TigerNex 1 Quote
Justin579 Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 hands down high school romance. like wish upon a star and majikoi my favorite. probably because I wish my life could be exactly like tthat Quote
Canicheslayer Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 I don't know if we can call it a genre but I'm really fond of dystopian VNs (like Sharin no Kuni...or Sekien no Inganock). I want more Kawasumi 1 Quote
Satsuki Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Moege ftw. Anything will do, as long as it doesn't focus too much on the H. And at least one loli heroine is a must Quote

Freestyle80 Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 My favorite genres/vns always tend to be the ones with an interesting and proactive protagonist, like Yuuji from Grisaia, Azai from G-senjou or even Akihito from Comyu, dont know what to call VNs like those though VirginSmasher 1 Quote
WinterfuryZX Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 I prefer weak and crazy protagionists, better if 100% anti-Gary Stu with uncommon behaviour and decisions, if it's done well, the story gets more inetersting Quote

Templarseeker Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 Hmm... I don't really favor one VN genres over the other as I played different kinds of it ranging from fantasy to mystery/detective or some traditional school comedy VNs settings. I'll play whatever types of genre I fancy depending of my mood. Also I somehow beginning to like VNs with RPG gameplay elements attached to it such as Aselia The Eternal And Yumina The Ethereal which adds a certain layer to it aside from the already great storyline these games has, making these kinds of game more enjoyable to play than the average VNs out there with multiple routes. Although I'm not implying that there's anything wrong with it. Anyways, I'll play anything that gets my ways as long as the storyline is decent enough and the English translation or localization is understandable and well polished with cool eye candy artworks of course!
