>play a romance visual novel>choose the dialogue options that make the most sense to me in real life>all the girls hate me and I get the worst ending every timeAre these games trying to tell me something?
>>738227903>choose the dialogue options that make the most sense to me in real lifeThat's the problem, you need to adopt the so called "herbivore male" mindset for a lot of romance VNs, unless they're eroge
>>738227903With that girl in particular you have to pick choices as if you're her dad, she has major father issuesYou are her dad
I maintain that the direction the plot went in for the finale was bad.
>>738228697it wouldn't have been as bad if he could have just kept his pants on
>>738227903it's the most fun way to play VNs if you ask me.
>>738227903That's not romance visual novel
>>738227903I like this 90s romance visual novel esthetic. Recoomend me some steam games

>>738227903>make the most sense to me in real lifeThat's why you're a virgin in real life too, anon.
>>738227903Hey don't feel too bad, on my first attempt the step mother killed herself while takuya fucked the news anchor somewhere else in town.Getting back home to "drip drip drip" was brutal.
>>738227903you have to think of it from the Japanese perspective lolthey do things different socially over thereif you know archetypes the "right choice" tends to become more obvious easily
>>738227903you need to assess the character instead of mindlessly validate everything, as you would in real life
>>7382279032 possible reasons>1The game is actually idyllic and you, man with girlfriend or wife in real life, is using choices that work within real life rather than an ideal world, leading to the girls hating you.>2The game is realistic and you, man with no girlfriend or wife in real life, is answering the questions from an idealistic perspective, which fails to correlate with the realism of the game, leading to the girls hating you.So which is it?
>>738231267You forgot 3., where it's decided by 80s adventure game logic, which has no place in reality or idealism.
>>738231408I guess he could try putting the pancake on top of the coffee machine to see if the a secret door opens in the basement and reveals the mind control machine making the girls hate him yes.
>>738227903One thing you should remember is that women love rape. If there's ever an option to act like a rapey guy, then you should choose that option instead of acting like a normal person

Visual novels were my life around 2009-2012, life got shitty and I stopped reading visual novels to become a wagieOver the last 14 years I played like 1 visual novel a year and I think by now I've finished all the "classics"Then I proceeded to search what are the new VNs I missed during these 14 years and apparently there's NONEHello?What happened?
Hookah Haze has a nice dithered look. Games short though. Probably 5 hours long for all routes.
>>738227903>Second half of the game is completely linear with nothing to do with the first halfI will never understand why this game gets glazed so hard by boomers.
>>738229274This had a melancholic theme song. Translation when?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXb0QDPpi8U&list=PL-zy_3AyRdrXa4Vh8BAAtLkTfMHm7pf4L&index=1

>>738232047customer base cannibalized by other mediadevs making gacha insteadplatform censorship making edgy content untenable
>>738232047I'm illiterate so I might be way off here, but I feel like in the past decade or so, with the more rampant style over substance media, streaming platforms, Youtube shorts and Tiktok and the likes, attention span has dipped a lot lower so text-based entertainment has a lot less appeal now.
