Is your favorite game's story better than a visual novel? Be honest.
>>738335030Not hard to make a great story when you have hardly any gameplay.
>>738335030never read a visual novel before. Is this as good as i hear it is or should I just watch the anime?
Pressing X doesn't make your vn a real video game.
>>738335030my favorite game is S;G tougheverbeit
>>738335030Japanese anime writing is awful, over the top young adult slop. I'd challenge you to find a single visual novel with the tone, atmosphere and dialogue style as Pathologic.

>>738335630skip steins;gate 0 if youre going the anime route it was trash, original was pretty decent

>>738335780Very based
>>738335630if you have tolerance to reading, stick to the VN, has more details than the VN for better or worse, the anime is great too but it cuts alot of fat that i kinda missed from the vn
>>738336098>has more details than the VNmean't anime
>>738335030No because I value gameplay in my game over words words words
>>738335030there isn't any vn with a better storyline than Planetscape Torment.
Steins;Gate is reddit slop, if that's your example of the bar for good storytelling then your opinion doesn't deserve to be listened to.
the fuck is a reddit slopwho invents these words?

>>738335030Video games aren't even a medium designed for story. Focusing on story is a meme and it was never the focus.
>>738335030>than a visual novelThis doesn't mean anything, at allVisual novels vary in qualityI guess my favorite video game doesn't have a better story than steins gate, however, since it focuses on many other things, has to account for player custom character choices, etc etc.But there are better stories than Steins Gate, on average VN are not particularly good
>>738335030>your favorite game's storyFull Metal Daemon Muramasa
>>738335763Why are vns allowed on /v/ then? Checkmate atheists.
>>738336059>tfw no kurisu gf
>>738335030I don't know any visual novel stories because I play video games
>>738335030>is your favorite tabletop game better than a book
>>738338745They're not you fucking retard>>565998984
>>738335030Your visual book doesn't have better gameplay than my favorite game though
>>738335030Better than Steins;Gate's 5/10 story? Absolutely.
>>738335030My favorite game has fewer characters that I want to punch in the face so yes.
>>738335030Zoomers and gen A discovering Steins;Gate has been awful, almost as bad as them discovering Eva.
>>738341798Personally I thought the millennial fans of S;G were already kind of insufferable but it's definitely gotten even worse.
>>738335030>storyRead a real book.
S;G isn't perfect but you have to be a contrarian to claim it is le bad
>>738343991It's just mediocre imo. Could've been way better if they knew how to write characters that don't suck
>>738335030Faxanadu barely has a story to be fair.
Utawarerumono > S;G
>>738335030My favorite game has no story.
>>738335030You could've at least posted something good like Muramasa first.
>>738343991It's a solid 7/10. The anime fixed all of it's dogshit pacing problems so that's where the overrating started. Literally everything else after the first VN related to it has been mediocre though.
>>738345564>>738341210I don't know who you people are trying to impress by acting like [good thing] actually isn't that good. Seriously.
>>738335030Probably not because "favorite game" is based on how fun it is. A visual novel is inherently not fun at all.
>>7383463807/10 is good
>>738335030Yes
Best girl? Must be Faris.
>>738335030Visual novels are mostly bad, especially that one.
>>738335030S;G is one of the most overrated games I've ever been duped into playing, not even limited to just visual novels. I'm completely don with time travel slop.
>>738335030Does it matter? What about the gameplay?
>>738335030Steins;Gate is shit.
>>738335997Haven't decided if it's better than Steins;Gate, but I liked Z.A.T.O. a lot more than I thought I would
>>738335030VN fags overhype this too much. It had some interesting time travel aspects but at some point it just started to feel like shallow waifushit the way the story was going.
nice criticism
