Yes.

I got memed into reading F/SN. Wish I'd just started with the Anime, what a waste of time.

This is fucking /lit/ not fucking /a/
get out of here with that weeb shit faggots

>>9876511
Try Dies Irae. It's better than F/SN.

>>9876514
VNs actually go on /jp/ and /vg/, not /a/.

>>9876480
I firmly believe that visual novels are the best format.
They have the story depth of a LN, the visuals from manga, the audio from anime, and the interactivity of a game.
They are perfect to me

Steins;Gate. It was pretty good. Had a nice ending.

They have a lot of potential as a format, but so far there hasn't been any that have successfully used the format to produce a genuinely literary/artistic (as supposed to commercial/genre) work. I thought KS had a chance due to its independent and non commercial nature, but only Rin's route was anywhere near that level (being about how people interpret/react to art instead of focusing on a cliche romance)

>>9876752
Do you know Japanese?

>>9876752
What visual novels have you played?

Only Otome games

>>9876480
Literally more video game than literature, OP. This is more suitable to /v/ or /a/ than /lit/.

Root Letter was cool though.

I liked saya no uta

But DESU theyre all bad

read the myths instead you fucking brainlet

>>9876844
You can't fuck female King Arthur in the myths though.

>>9876852
no but that lady of the lake always got a wet pussy mhmm nigga

I tried playing Katawa Shoujo and was frustrated by how slow it was. Having to sit through the same bullshit scenes repeatedly and weak set-up premises simply to get more than one thin storyline. I can only imagine they'd appeal to people who read as slowly as the text appears on the screen.

>>9876874
Katawa Shoujo is mediocre as far as VNs go. Regardless, most games should let you change the speed at which the text appears. They'll also have a Skip function so you don't have to read things over and over.

>>9876905
Still pisses me off to have it appear one line at a time.

>>9876915
I can understand that, but It's necessary to fit the text with the changing character illustrations.

I really loved 999, but mostly how it used the DS to make a plot twist.

>>9876925
Maybe, but I don't find the changing illustrations really add much to it either. The music's often nice though.

>>9876967
You could try one in a different format. Some anon mentioned Saya no Uta / Song of Saya earlier. That's written like a novel and shows a "page" of text on screen at a time. You still have to click through to make the paragraphs show up, but IIRC you can set it so that it all just appears instantaneously instead.

>>9876996
I could, but why would I?
>a Lovecraftian horror visual novel ... with erotic content.
I wouldn't choose to read this if it was a novel, why would I read it in a format I'm uncomfortable with?

>>9877008
It's a suggestion. Take it or leave it.

>Four Leaf Studios, the creators of Katawa Shoujo, was made by frequenters of 4chan's /a/ board.

>>9876511
Just watch Fate/Zero, which was written by Gen Urobuchi. Nasu is a terrible writer

>>9876821
>more video game
There is nothing video game about it besides selecting different dialogues.

>>9876874
What do you expect. I believe it was made by people who browse /a/. It's also about handicapped people.
