    How attached can you get?

    I hit 631 VNs played yesterday... not including replays (it goes up to around seven hundred then).  Believe me... once you've played that many, archetypical heroines tend to blend into one another.  Even moreso because even their backgrounds become archetypical and predictable after a while.  I can still remember and love the heroines I first met four or five years ago, but I frequently forget the ones I played with last week, lol.  Ones like Ami from Semiramis no Tenbin stand out a lot more than ones like Lycoris from yesterday, because they are unique or close to it. 

    I came to understand why so many Japanese otaku jeer the standardized heroines (and yes, the nuance is very similar to a standardized test, lol) a long time ago... and while I can sit back and enjoy most VNs anyway, the fact is that heroines that don't escape the formula for their archetype in some significant way are just another statistic after a while.

    Huh...i don't know, in my case even if i didnt play 600 VN's i can still know which heroine will fall into which category and her personality, stuff like that, the thing that makes me want to go to their routes is how they are developed and how her story goes, doesn't matter the personality no heroine is going to have the COMPLETELY same story as the last one or the next one...i guess i like how unique it can be. I couldn't count with my fingers if i even had like 10 hands how many heroines with the "kuudere" personality i went for and all of their stories were different

    Ninety percent of the time, I don't really attach emotionally at all anymore.  One reason is that the raw quality of VNs coming out in Japan in the last few years has fallen drastically.  Another reason is that after four hundred charage, it is just too hard to connect to yet another tsundere osananajimi, yurufuwa oneesan, genki-kei imouto, etc.  If there isn't something twisted in the relationship or to the heroine's personality or background, I find it hard to even take a serious interest these days, lol.

    Also, speaking from experience, most VNs with a focus on romance would be better off spacing out the ichaicha (dating, snuggling, flirting, kissing, sex) between more serious scenes or ones with characters that don't exist solely as a foil for corny sex and romance tropes.

    I played  lot of VN's and all (but 400? =_=) but theres always 1 or 2 heroines i get attached to because of 2 factors

    1: Backstory. For more reason than one and dont call me mean or whatever...the heroine that has the backstory that is so tragic that she literally would be considering suicide...gains 5 points...why? because this backstory makes the MC REALLY important to her....what? XD

    2: Well...everything else. Long hair = 4 points. Thigh highs = 4 points Tsurime Eyes = 3 points

    Literally give me a kuudere with long hair, tsurime eyes, (Optional) Thigh Highs and that backstory...and i wont play another VN for 4 months...and i wish i was exaggerating

    Theres probably a similar topic out there but i just want to ask...

    On VNs with romance...how attached do you get to a heroine? I played a lot of VN and i never finished some because i felt...bad for going for another heroine. Examples would be...em...Isuzu from Hoshimemo...Maya from NobleW-....wait forget that one i was too excited for Masamune's route then

    Basically how attached did you get to a heroine (or hero i guess) in a visual novel?...like from "Meh, to the next" to "I.....I can't do it"

    Looks like you already made the recommendation thread earlier here, I see. Okay, let's see then what could I recommend you here. I think if you really want emotionless heroine according to VNDB, then Koichoco would be good choice there (Keep in mind that you'll forced to complete one route before going to emotionless heroine route). As for other recommendations, if you didn't mind the gameplay you could pick Eien no Aselia and apparently Comyu also had emotionless heroine there. Hope it'll be help to you.

    Right now im actually playing Tsukihime so the "1 Route before the other" doesnt bother me and i heard of Koichoco before so ill keep that in my mind

    I had Eien no Aselia on my PC for around a month but simple things like the artstyle tyrned me off...until o realized how awesoome it was...well i wanted to complete Tsukihime or  Period first...so i only played an hour

    Comyu?....*looks it up* ...i searched for the Stoic heroine...She has amber eyes, tsurime eyes, looks at the sky, shoulder lenght  hair.....you literally hit bullseye with all of my fetishes with one shot ILL TAKE IT

    Are you after completely emotionless or kuudere - relatively emotionless cool on the outside but actually loving on the inside?

    Sorry for the late reply

    I guess you could say some of both, lovey dovey on the inside can be adorable...but complete emotionless (until the dere part comes in) is prferably....more adorable
