Generally I'm in it for the FL's struggle and the worldbuilding. Occasionally if I'm in a mood for something particular, I'll try to use certain tags related to the ML to narrow down my search. For example: I'm not usually in it for the romance and sometimes lose interest if the relationship...

Either a dedicated page, a wiki, or something like a tumblr or blog. Maybe another social media site, but I recommend using something with a tagging system so you can keep track. If you end up running a Patreon, this is the kind of thing that would be ideal for updates.

No hot takes here, unless you include "There should be more modern games like this." Historically I always struggled with classic games of this type for accessibility reasons or weird clunky parser issues. I suspect making these kind of games in the modern era could easily resolve those issues...

Blast my music while doing chores. Sometimes sing louder than I normally would.

Some general world building lore: There are two sapient species in the world; Dragons and humans. Dragons are born sexless and genderless. Eventually they gain characteristics when they reach maturity, though this is unique to each individual. Some are shaped by the world around them while...

It's entirely subjective. There's a lot of folks who wouldn't touch a "VN" with a 10-ft pole, but will play stuff with "VN" elements, like Ace Attorney. And there's people who won't go anywhere near either. (See also; walking sims, anime aesthetics, RPGs, or anything that requires reading.)...

Understood. Being a solo dev is the hardest path, but can be very satisfying if you achieve it. You can use VRoid as long as you are careful. Either design all the clothing from scratch or find premade items with an appropriate license. You could also use a tool like Mannequin by AR14, which...

I'll give you some basic starter tips. Credentials: I'm a VN developer with 15+ years of experience in various roles. Step 1, Writing: Focus on getting the writing done before anything else. This allows you to adjust the project scope and avoid feature creep or asset redundancies. Once the...

I really like your cover illustration, which has inspired me to make you a logo as a gift. Feel free to use it with your cover, or not at all. If you do end up using it, I recommend not obscuring your lovely characters' faces....so perhaps a lower placement would be better? Also, the fonts are...

It's difficult to answer your question considering you have listed a limited range of features for what RPGs you have played. The timeline is also a bit too vague to pin down a better answer. Or maybe it's because I also am a developer and not just a gamer. For example, if you only played...

Edginess for edginess' sake tends to fall flat because it's usually an immature attempt at attention by people who don't understand how humor works. For it to be humorous it should be making an observation with an element of surprise. Unfortunately people propagating "Edgy humor" create a sort...

Hey, welcome to the hobby! Figuring out length is a skill that you'll acquire over time, practice will help you get a sense for it. But there are ways to try to gauge the pace as you are starting out. Also, I know you've got it planned in your head, but please write it down, even if it's a mess...

For a moment I thought you meant Depression Quest but I see know what you meant. I enjoyed Forget Me Not: My Organic Garden greatly. It's an incremental gardening game with small visual novel scenes interspersed. The same developers also just realeased The Sealed Ampoule, which is "dungeon...

Right. So is it better to save readers the effort of looking it up on youtube by having a pronunciation guide in a glossary or character page? :blob_hmm_two:

Ah, I've encountered that. As well as situations where even if the names are different but there's like 6 people with "A" names so you mix them up.

Ah, no worries. I'm not feeling attacked, just amused by the confidence you spoke with about things that seem largely fickle dependent on the individual. I don't have that kind of confidence anymore. I appreciate your concern regarding wasted effort, which I tend towards at the best of times...

I'm wary of blanket statements being touted as objective fact, but you speak with such authority on the matter that I feel obligated to apologize for wasting your time with my projections and apparently bizarre concerns. Just to double check, are you just speaking from your own experience as a...
