Giki190 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Well, I've just returned to Visual Novels (It's a On/Off Relationship, if you know what that feels like) and because most of my recent VNs I dropped because of length, don't get me wrong if it's good I want AS MUCH of it as I can possibly get but the thing with long VNs is that they're REALLY long due to the fact they normal length VNs are already LONG from a normal gamer's perspective so inevitably there ends up being a point (normally in the middle) that things slow down and become very boring which is the moment I drop them and whenever I drop a VN I leave them for several months So I'm here to ask for a VN Suggestion that I can finish in 10-20 hours (like noting) and only due to me looking for something a bit I want either gameplay or lots of choices Thanks for reading Senpai! and no pressure if you don't make a suggestion but it would really help!

Flutterz Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 My first thought was "And yet your avatar is from Rewrite". I think Kanon is around that length, although it has a lot of choices. Saya no Uta, Narcissu, and True Remembrance are all really good and really short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giki190 Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 My first thought was "And yet your avatar is from Rewrite". Rewrite is the reason I said if it's good I want AS MUCH as possible (With Little Busters being one of the one's I dropped) but sadly I changed computers and do not want to go through the pain which was installing that crap and I have to go through routes to unlock the one I was at which is just too much trouble for me right now And Kanon is just....it scares me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giki190 Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 Ummm maybe Corpse Party. I would love to play that yet I am broke and Vita-less so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clephas Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 A few issues... 1. There is no such thing as a VN with gameplay that is short 2. Games with lots of choices disrupt the story in a lot of cases, weakening it or making it less interesting. 3. Short VNs tend to suck outright Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funnerific Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Soul Link and Aoishiro have a ton of choices and bad ends and don't suck at all, though there's no gameplay. Fate/Stay Night is also a good choice if you don't mind the over-the-top supernatural. Can't say they won't feel horribly long, but you can't have everything. Utawarerumono has good gameplay and isn't very long, but there are no choices at all. Tomoyo After by your favourite Key has unlockable gameplay after you finish the game which isn't that long either. You should play/watch Clannad first though.

DimDito Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I believe Tomoyo After: It's a Wonderful Life best fits that description. -_- Finished it in 1 day, but it still has the Key touch to it. Brilliant after story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronopolis Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I feel like the rpg maker games would be more up your alley. A number of them are have puzzles along the way and/or multiple endings. They are about 3-8 hours long perhaps. http://vgperson.com/games/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InvertMouse Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Utawarerumono would be one that comes to mind. Well, it has gameplay, but it's quite long. If you own a DS, perhaps 999? I also made a VN with gameplay that's only about an hour or so long. It's in my signature. Just saying (/u\)~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meru Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 How about Analogue: A Hate Story? You can get it on Steam. It took me around 4 hours to complete (maybe a bit shorter than you're looking for, but I'd still recommend it) and has a small 'gameplay' element.
