From these, what would you play next?

[SajkoWolfe]

I have done 3 routes of Clannad, half of Flowers, 100%ted VA-11 Hall-A. 

What to play next?

 

[AaronIsCrunchy]

I'd take on Narcissu if you fancy getting ready to ｆｅｅｌ. It is very good, but yeah, it's pretty heavy stuff.

I'll always rec Grisaia too, if it's available Great if you fancy a long read!

Yeah Grisaia is there. I think im actually a couple of hours into it, although I dont remember what happened xd

This is what happens when you drop a hobby

[AaronIsCrunchy]

Haha, tell me about it. I am... several hours into Tokyo Babel and haven't read any of that in aaaaaages. I'm probably going to have to start pretty much over again.

[Dergonu]

I'd say G-senjou no Maou. Love that one. It's a really cool, "battle of wits" mystery, with some great twists and turns.

[Sayaka]

I second the Narcissu suggestion, it's quite short (and kinetic) but seriously packs a punch.

Otherwise Amnesia: Memories I found to be a nice otome with an interesting enough plot and lovely bishies.

Thirdly, you could try fault: milestone one. It's short and kinetic like Narcissu, but is fantasy with fascinating world building and concepts. However don't expect full professional quality from it, and don't expect much plot progression in a linear direction! It spends a lot of its time fleshing out a new character and explaining her backstory.

But a lot of them are good...

Anyway play Sound of Drop since it is a short mystery VN so it won't take much of your time, undertale is also pretty good if you go blind, Sakura Fantasy is one of the two not-horrible winged cloud games, it is also quiet short, Amnesia and Analogue are also a plus.  Grisaia is long, so play the ones that are not that long first.

I personally hate Undertale for personal reasons and I was too ashamed to mention forgot to say I played all the Sakuras. My friend made me do them drunk

Well, if you dislike Undertale for whatever reason, you can still try the other ones, I just recommend leaving the very long ones for when you have less things on your backlog, so you can have a more comfortable journey.

Also no shame in playing all the Sakura Games, they're shit and I also played them as an excuse to make more walkthroughs for some shovelware fun.

There is some kind of enjoyment in playing/watching something that is just poorly written. For instance I watched Isekai wa Smartphone to Tomo ni and found it to be quite enjoyable. In my head there was a battle between the main character, author and animators in who could put in the least amount of effort (they fought really hard). The sakura games has the same thing going in, it is just kind of fun to see how predictible and poorly written they are. Ofc they are only worth it at a large discount.

yeah my friend got them all for me at steam sales. That being said it still ended up being like 15£ which is 15£ more than they are worth

I mean if you played through Tomoyo's route in Clannad maybe you should play Tomoyo After

Other than that G senjou because it's one of the best vns ever

I never managed to get her good ending even though shes my favourite character because I am a failure

That being said some of clannad's routes are so arbitrary (like the dorm mothers SAY THESE THREE THINGS IN THE RIGHT ORDER) and I didnt want to use a walkthrough

A walkthrough is a must for Clannad but yeah you need to go back in there and get her good ending(It's the best route and best ending in the whole game)

Yeah it's incredibly arbitrary at times

My favourite route was probably Kyou just because you had to... 

Spoiler

Murder Ryou be mean to Ryou for it and it was feels galore. I felt it was really well done.

 

[Zidan209]

You ought to play G-senjou

Oh I really loved her route as well Kyou is just the best

Spoiler

I hated Ryou for trying to get between me and Kyou it's like get back in the corner where you belong!!

 

[DarkZedge]

I love a lot of the games on there but I'll say VA-11 HALL-A (absolutely amazing)

My bad <3 Then I'll say G-Senjou or Grisaia

[Plk_Lesiak]

If you enjoy yuri I would suggest going for Highway Blossoms. Another recommendation would be Analogue, both are fairly short but extremely good games.

[Dreamysyu]

Well, I've only played about 20 minutes of it, so you may consider it a blind recommendation, but fault milestone has a pretty unique story for a visual novel, and it's also reasonably short.

[Strike105X]

I also agree with G-senjou no Maou, its an amazing read as far as the main route is concerned.

1. delete all the sakura games. oh dear gods

2. undertale isn't a vn

3. Undertale or VA-11 HALL-A in my humble opinion.
