Ohh don't worry not all visual novels have a lot of text... (In fact your standard RPG usually contains more then your standard Visual Novel)

This is usually what happens

Girl: "I think I like you"

Chose an Option
-Flirt
-Kiss
-Slap

You chose Flirt

Girl: "He he he" *Heart goes above her head*

You do this for a few hours and the ending will be of her chosing you in what should be the most anti-climatic ending EVER!!! (usually of her just saying she loves you with a still picture of her looking hot or kidnapping you)

Alright this is an exageration... but it is to say that don't expect a visual novel to involve THAT much reading (or in depth story >.>) so don't take it as a turn off from the genre as a whole.

That is a Love Sim. Or dating sim.
Try the visual novels that I mentioned several posts ago.

I thought you meant text adventures like Zork and such at first. I've really wanted to play more of those. I wish there was an open-ended text adventure, that'd be pretty bad-ass.

Might give Narcissu a shot sometime though. My only beef with visual novels would be that, if they're primarily story, they're not nearly as fun the second or third time through, right?

Strange I thought Bible Black was only a popular hentai anime...

Guess I was wrong.

Oh well, True Remembrance is pretty good, actually. It's a masterpiece... I finished it in a marathon, so I will read it again when I can.

AND I NEARLY GOT KANON AND AIR. Damn. If only I was earlier...
