They're okay mostly, also we don't see them often. It highly depends on the game itself. I like Cursed Covenant mini games, for example (which is pretty much just a touch simulator). But if it's puzzles... some are really fucked up xP
Not really. I remember it did happen to me like once or twice when I just left finishing a single route because it felt like "It should be a canon". But mostly I prefer to give the author's work more attention, even just out of respect
I just hate all gacha games. For me, their maximum interesting time is 2-3 days. Anything further just turns into empty grinding you'd most likely fail to do because it's pay-to-live. Even with interesting characters
I prefer more choices, but of course it should be something more balanced. One choice every 30 minutes can become very boring if the writing isn't good.
I use only mp3. It's high-quality enough for me to not care and small in size. My storage is always on the edge, so using anything else would just kill it.
I'm pretty sure I'll sound like someone who understand nothing in BLVNs, but for me, Our life: beginnings & always is such a masterpiece among VNs I've played. Art, writing, replayability. Was in my head for a good while.
