So, if it’s not Danganronpa no one cares about the genre?

>>1413328 Honestly I don't play a lot of VN games. Closest I ever get is the Ace Attorney games. If I had time to try just one, what would you suggest?

>>1413328 I don't even like Danganronpa.

>>1406263 Most games in that list are very mediocre, especially your pic rel. Uchikoshi is a hack but those games succeeded in being worse and less entertaining than ZTD, of all things. EVNs just aren't good in general. In recent memory, the one of the few with promise in this genre coming from the west was Of The Devil, and it's still unfinished. I'll let anons be the judge regarding the artstyle, but like most of the ones in the list, it doesn't look very good to me. At least the writing and atmosphere are really on point compared to most western productions trying to ape ace attorney, danganronpa or zero escape. Most fail really hard when it comes to sound design or presentation.

>>1427365 I had high hopes for Birth ME Code but it turned out to be very poorly-written and the gimmick was just that — a gimmick. As far as EVNs go the only good one, and it’s deservedly a legend (even in Japan) is DDLC. The Project Libatina game was supposed to come a few years after but it never did. Salvato claims to be working on two new VNs at least one of them is said to be related to DDLC which I really, really hope is Project Libatina / Portrait of Markov; if it is the hype will be massive. Besides DDLC I really can’t think of any noteworthy games. Just Dangaronpa copies and fan games. Maybe Slay the Princess counts? I haven’t heard of Of The Devil.
