is it yuri or yaoi? If so pass. I don't play that degeneracy.

Next, I check if the male protagonist is actually likeable. Usually he will be if he's an alpha like pic related. More than likely, at least 80% of VN protagonists are beta faggots, so you have to sort through most of the shit.

Finally, you have to check if the waifus have a good character design and personality. Usually their routes don't even matter that much, because it all converges towards the same thing anyway. Most plots are usually predictable.

Typically an interesting concept or monster girls

Stat-grinding.
Which is why True Love 98 is the greatest VN of our generation.
I fucking wish I still had the screen shot of my stats where I had max STR and nothing else.

This stupid decision has led me to Memory's Dogma, but I sure will finish that chuuni-bullshit. Might get a chance to grab some assets out of it too, I hope.

Gameplay or anything I can't get in social life or any booru site

Some minor gameplay, after slogging through Umineko and being treated to the only game in Ep.8, which was one of the best parts, there was no excuse for that not to be present in most of the game.

Well written story that isn't action cancer and lasts for at least 50 hours.
That's why I don't read much of them anymore since I already finished all the good ones years ago and all these meme publishers keep on translating are kusoge eroge games and moe romance shit because retards buy them ironically.
