I'm realizing how much I hate sadboi VNs, or whatever you want to call them. Not for the aforementioned sadbois, but for the overall structure that most of them have (1/

Look, all I gotta say about this jam is that if none of the entries use the phrase "buck naked" at any point I'm going to be very disappointed

My current obsession is VNs where characters have the most heartfelt conversations while in the nude (Conway, Killigan's Treasure, et al.) and demanding that more VNs do this

Your best friends are the ones you can always lounge around naked with

With regard to Campo Largo, I want to make it a rule that if your FVN takes place in a no-shoes universe, your MC can't be an ungulate (see also: Aaron and the Void)

No, despite the MC's resemblance to William from TSR, this is not fanfiction. This is a dark 'n' gritty film noir VN that establishes a great sense of mood and foreboding and has firmly established itself as one to watch

I insist on playing FVNs such that if I don't see the MC, I assume he's a nudist and it just goes uncommented on by the other characters

Thinking about Taloen from Moontouched and how we need more FVN chars who don't wear clothes

It's been about a month since I've read all the Love + Attraction VNs, and one in particular has managed to stick with me. If you haven't read it yet, go do so, since I'm about to get into some (very) mild spoilers

Hey, wanna read about a group of friends who live in a small town, have dysfunctional dynamics, and don't wear shoes? No, I don't mean Echo. And no, I don't mean Silverstone either. I mean The Orange Glow, which I highly recommend.

So I just played the new VN Spark Hearts and...I found it really boring. Absolutely nothing happens in the first build, and while that doesn't mean nothing /will/ happen, it does make it look like a typical case of putting tons of style over something with zero substance.
January 27, 2025 at 11:08 PM
OK game, look: the only person who's allowed to mention being naked this much is me
December 29, 2024 at 9:31 AM
If I had a nickel for every FVN where the MC constantly wears a mask, I'd have a dime. Which isn't a lot, but (you know the rest)

The thing about the VN Limits is that every character has a fairly simplistic characterization. That doesn't necessarily have to be a bad thing, especially for a dating sim, but (1/2)

Just finished the latest update of Identity. My mission to sleep with every character in that VN and to have zero shame about it continues unabated
November 14, 2024 at 4:35 PM
The latest chapter of In Finite Space is...bizarre

And I don't think I mean that in a good way
November 12, 2024 at 4:09 PM
It's okay for your VN to have only one route. If you're writing multiple routes and finding that you're lavishing all your attention on one character, you should ask yourself what exactly is the story you're trying to tell
November 2, 2024 at 4:32 PM
I haven't exactly been Soulcreek's biggest cheerleader. But while I still have some issues with it, I do have to admire its devotion to its high-concept plot. All of this makes for an FVN that arguably has the most ambitious storytelling of any I've ever read
October 27, 2024 at 9:25 PM
I haven't particularly enjoyed Devil's Gambit, and up to now, I wasn't exactly sure why. It's not just that the characters (apart from Ranzkai, who singlehandedly carries this VN) are boring. It's more than that
September 19, 2024 at 4:30 AM
Following up on my last post, I've been thinking a lot about Monster Village lately as a VN that's gotten better with each new build. When it started, I thought that none of the characters really extended past cliched stereotypes

It's interesting to see how some FVNs are stretching the boundaries of the medium. One Thousand Acts of Decency, Trainwreck, and Monster Village all take their cues from games like Danganronpa, Zero Escape, and Ace Attorney by adding investigative elements to their narrative
