Non-yuri VN blogs/sites worth following?

[Plk_Lesiak]

Hello there you disgusting perv... I mean, lovely people of Fuwa!

As you probably know, I'm very much a fan of yuri and I've noticed that this particular niche have a really strong blogging community. VNs using this theme can usually rely on sites such as The Yuri Nation for promotion. I couldn't, however, identify many significant sites covering other types of VNs, especially non-erotic ones. Also, some blogs I do know about, such as Meru's and Sanahtlig's aren't very active.

Are there any blogs, websites or (not fully LP-oriented) YouTube channels that you could recommend that deal with a broader spectrum of VNs or a niche different than yuri?

I only know this one. Not sure if you're aware of its existence.

Aww, poor Lesiak.
The nicest looking sites which come to mind are:

https://vnreviews.blog/ Conjeurer's Blog

https://tanoshimi.xyz/ Moogy and Co.

https://mimidoshima.wordpress.com/ Kastel

https://gareblogs.wordpress.com/ Garejei

https://omochikaeri.wordpress.com/ New releases by Micchi and Zen

I don't really follow VN blogs though, I just go look for reviews or vndb comments after finishing a VN.

Well, I'm subscribed to several Youtube channels that do VN reviews, but most of them aren't very active, and some are pretty much dead.

Brother in Yuri, I hope this does not mean that you are straying from the righteous path of Yuri toward the corroded and fifthly entity that is het?

If so then,

Nah, I just wanted to help someone with marketing their game and wondered what the VN blogosphere looks like nowadays. It didn't work out anyways, so my dedication to the yuri path if righteousness is stronger than ever. To make it clear, I'll spend next few hours browsing the Wholesome Yuri subreddit, until I fall into yuri-filled dreams.

 

 

...damn, I'm gross.

I know that I'm too late for this, but in case you still want to view about other people blog in regard of VN I can recommend three blogs. Here's the one from Joyjason (He was quite critical in regard of VNs), another one from Warum (Beware of spoiler though), and finally there's another blog from Aedes. In the past, there's also another blog from MDZ but unfortunately it was unavailable as of now. Keep in mind that all of the blogs were talking about untranslated eroge.

PS - Note that both of Aedes's and Warum's blog is quite outdated, but I think it's still interesting read.

It's never too late for this kind of info, friend! Thank you for your input.

I'm collecting visual novel reviews sources to fill in my reviews database (except for yuri, otome, BL) with the overall number surpassing 100 already. But active ones are very few. Here are the non mentioned active ones:

I see, and if that's the case then I guess you may as well browse both of Kai's and Silvachief's blog, even though the latter was unable to edit the blog at this moment. They mainly focused on translated VNs in the past, although they also mix it with some anime review though. It's still good to read if you want to look some past VN Reviews. I hope it'll be helpful to you as well.
