GetterEmperor Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Definitely Steins:Gate for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FruitsPunchSamurai Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 G-Senjou, Ever 17 and Koihime Musou. Ever 17 is the best one here but they're equally my favorites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scars Unseen Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Definitely School Days for me. . .. ... .... ..... nope. Couldn't keep a straight face. Probably Steins;Gate. I'm not overly fond of the Phone Trigger system, but the actual story, the sciencey details and the romance sans embarrassing H-Scenes really makes it stand out in my mind. Plus Makise Kurisu is awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolverk Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Hatsuyuki Sakura. Really? Well I am not one to fuss over a favorite novel. I can't decide on one haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vokoca Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I might have to go with Clannad as well, if only for the sheer amount of routes it had - and all the times it made me cry like a baby. It was also one of my first VNs, so that has quite something to do with it. Story wise though, I'd have to go for something like Umineko instead... yeah, I can't pick a favourite.

Sol Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Tsukihime Fate Stay/Night by Type Moon Ever17 Remember11 by KID Rewrite by Key Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seth Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 I guess Little Busters would be my favorite one because I loved almost every character in there and Refrain just made me cry for an exeptional long time. If Michiru's/Sakaki's routes would have been better I guess Grisaia no Kajitsu would also be on the same level as LB!. ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhiroo Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 If I had to choose one I'd be Muv Luv Alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funyarinpa Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Virtue's Last Reward for me. Out of the two I have read, the other one being 999 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 for the non-gameplay category my favorite one would be Dustmania Grotesque Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InvertMouse Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Mine's Narcissu because it's the first VN I've ever played, and it happened to be damn good as well. If I started off with a far inferior VN, I might have stopped there and never read another one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenophilious Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 Mine's Narcissu because it's the first VN I've ever played, and it happened to be damn good as well. If I started off with a far inferior VN, I might have stopped there and never read another one! I'm a little weird in that way; my first VN was Katawa Shoujo, but my current favorite is Hoshimemo. I love KS, but it just didn't affect me the way that Hoshimemo did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooves Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 If I had to choose one I'd be Muv Luv Alternative. Muv-Luv Alternative is a high one for me as well. What I didn't like about it was The ending, simply because that ending seemed like a cheesy way to destroy everything that was being built up throughout the ENTIRE visual novel. If they had just kept his memories it would've been nice. He would be all-over Sumika and Alternative making her the true heroine would've added closure.

DimDito Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 It'll have to be Clannad. Brilliant writing, astounding music, amazing collection of routes, heartwarming, intense, and sad when it wants to be. I usually rate VNs by their emotional impact. Very, very close runner ups include Steins;Gate, Little Busters!, and Kara no Shoujo, in that order. Rewrite was too incohesive and dragged out for me, probably because it's written by 3 different people, none of whom are Jun Maeda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stanleys Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 MLA is up there for me as well... however i will never get THIS out of my head You ever heard the term "manly tears?" Well there was nothing manly about the tears I shed that day. As for a favorite, I think I will have to go with Grisaia no Kajitsu. Everything about it was amazing. The tension in all of the routes always had me wanting more to the point that I couldn't stop reading. Though I will give mention Muv-Luv Alternative for being the first VN to make me cry in ages.

Nyanko Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Not a hard choice and I didn't see it yet, Umineko is my all-time favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AceAttorney Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Yep, I'm going with Umineko as well. As a fan of the murder mystery genre (in ANY medium, really), Umineko's deconstruction of the classic detective novel was essentially the perfect thing for me.

Mikel Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I have to say the best VN I've played is Fate Stay Night. It's just great, there are a lot of VNs I love, but this one I love even more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choppi Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 So happy to see some Umineko love in the thread!! Also going to chime in to say that Umineko is definitely my favorite :') Nyanko 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
