starlessn1ght Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 I was thinking about this, since VNs are usually romantic and fun, so they could fit a date or something... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rainsismyfav Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 I am planning to read something short, like Phenomeno or Narcissu. If I ever get the chance. starlessn1ght 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heizei_koukousei Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 My girlfriend has casually watched me play my visual novels but she never really got into them, the only title that she actually read with me was Sono Hanabira back when I first started playing VNs myself. However, we do actively watch anime together on the daily  I don't know if playing visual novels together would be a very good date though lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurokusari Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 *obligatory 404 girlfriend not found* On a serious note, I'll only probably do that if I'll be reading something like Rewrite. Reading something like Yume Miru Kusuri with just about anybody else would be kinda awkward. Then again, we wouldn't be together if she isn't weird or isn't aware of my weird hobbies. Â . . . All this hypothetical thinking is making me want a girlfriend. I have enough already anyway in the 2D world ;-; starlessn1ght 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joshua1207 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I played Saya no Uta and Yume Miru Kusuri with my ex when we were dating. I got another girl to play Saya when I first read it too, and she liked it although we didn't play it together. everybody likes some Saya starlessn1ght 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suikashoujo Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Well, other than the time that I sat down and played https://vndb.org/v12404with one of my best friends... no. No, I haven't. Zenophilious 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanahtlig Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I imagine I could interest most potential consorts in a playthrough of School Days HQ. Â Other VNs would be much less suitable for cooperative play. Â Cooperative reading is hamstrung by fundamental issues such as mismatched reading speeds.

Getsuya Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Wait but wouldn`t me playing a VNÂ with a VN character be some sort of paradox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mevvrynne Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 My fiance and I read them together every now and then, sometimes even ones we've gone through before. Â Usually they're romantic or romantic comedy of some description, but we do read things like Demonbane every so often to change things up.

hsmsful Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Well I read toradora portable with my sister and it was fun so I bet reading a romantic vn with gf/wife would be awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavenlysf Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I don't really think playing visual novel together works. Â When you play VN, you always play as a protagonist - viewing things from the first perspective. To play with someone means both of you view things as an outsider, a 3rd perspective, so it is hard to get immerse into VN than playing alone. Â When it comes to anime, watching together is fine as mentioned above. Â But a nukige or anything that isn't plot-heavy should be fine for a laugh together.

InvictusCobra Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 No sir, I have not, due to the fact that one of the elements of the question is missing from my life. try to imagine which one T_T I think it might depend on what you are seeking from the experience. A person with whom to discuss the plot, someone to share the burden and weigh the choices with, or just a reading/talking buddy to help alleviate the grind of infodumping or have a laugh due to a bad or hilarious moment? Or maybe sex has gotten stale, so now you read things like Starless for some "innovative" ideas heh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavenlysf Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 Um... Why can't you view things as first perspective when reading together?  I guess I made no sense, haha  I would be busy chatting instead of the game if someone else is there. But comedy type of game really works well here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zenophilious Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 Rance: fun for the whole family!  First of all, I've never had a girlfriend. Second of all, I might have a hard time reading a VN with someone that wanted to read it with me, mostly because I seem to read a lot faster than the average person. Seems to run in my family, since my mom can do the same. Other than that, I'd be down with reading a VN with a girlfriend . If I get a girlfriend that likes anime in general, she's gonna read Majikoi. No other option will be possible.

joehawks12 Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 i would, but everyone i know and possibly have an interest in are normies. Â this is a fairly good idea for making moves though now that i think about it. Â Start something like narcissu or planetarium,short and bittersweet, cry in front of/with girl, get inside of her/eat her face, rinse and repeat for simulated deep emotional connections with said girl and to show you are an empathic being in need of comfort that a feminine bosom is only capable of healing. Â Thanks op, you have added a finisher to my movelist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinovaA Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 I don't think I ever have. I was once reading Muv Luv around my ex, but she was doing something else. I have read VNs with my friends though. Read Narcissu with one friend, Rance with another (we were laughing our asses off), oh and part of Muv Luv as well. I remember it quite well... as it was Sumika's h-scene... and before that the only experience with h-scenes I had was with FSN... so needless to say I was... impressed. After reading it for a bit... I saved and went home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sovereign1612 Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 i don't know about you guys but I've to be alone to actually get into a VN,and It's just annoying to have someone else around you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
