Welcome to the forums!
Good thing another lurker decided to say hi~
I figured it'd be a bit more fun this way than just coming in to see what's going on as an outsider. And thanks everyone

Hey everyone! I'm a 19 year old from southeast England, and I've been slowly gaining more and more of an interest in VNs over the past 18 months or so thanks to a friend I met at college. However, given that I've only read 10 or so (and most of those have been free or on Steam) I figured that this seems like a neat community (I've lurked here and there for about a month) and figured I'd make an account to find out more about them!
My favourite VN I've read to date is Fate Stay/Night, which is an obvious choice but a good'un, although I'm currently reading through the Onikakushi chapter of Higurashi and am really enjoying it (I've already watched the anime, but the VN is as good, if not better). I also enjoy learning languages, playing guitar/bass/mandolin and writing music reviews. Hope I enjoy my time here!

Great list to refer back to, I've only read 6 of these but there's at least 30 on here that I wanna check... pretty sure I can hear my wallet screaming.
Sci-fi works well I'd imagine as the situations that occur in them allow for the most erratic and uncertain character traits to come out, so when you throw in the element of choice as well the character depth that can be investigate is huge. Also it can stop things becoming too sickly, which is more often a problem in slice-of-life stories (obviously there are many exceptions, but just a thought).
Has a VN ever made you depressed?

Yeah, that one's a pretty rough read actually.
I put Katawa Shoujo down as something that helped me when I was having a pretty bad spell, in relation to the OP. Granted it hurt but I felt, after a few days, like getting off my backside and doing something. Kinda grateful for it, really.
