If you've read Season of Sakura you've read every VN

So play older ones like Tenshi-tachi no Gogo. Or ones without girls.

Season of the Sakura was a pretty cool visual novel. I wish I bought in its day. I still want it too. Shame there wasn't more with not-Katsuragi Misato. Even back then I recognized the Evangelion, St. Tail, and Rayearth ripoffs but I think part of the charm was that it took the characters and jammed them into the same school setting.

I think there are plenty of visual novels that offers stories that are different from just school love. I've gone through a few that were mystery thrillers, some explore horror, some are fantastical. The venerable Chrono Trigger had a visual novel sequel in Radical Dreamers. I think Elf's Yu-No game is pretty good. The C's Ware titles like Eve Burst Error, Eve: The Lost One, Desire, etc. are compelling too (I have not played Eve Zero yet) that goes beyond character archetypes and focus on their narratives.

I visit my local Walmart (in the middle of nowhere US, they are the center of our lives) and I see they still sell visual novels like The Walking Dead, Life Is Strange, The Wolf Among Us, etc. so I am guessing people are finding reasons to pick up new VNs anyway. I think of the genre like those pulp paperback fiction books you'd find, disposable entertainment where some enjoyment can be had. I think I even read that some of those games won awards, so I guess they are getting recognition even with their anime girl archetypes.
