I've never read/played a VN. I don't really know where to start or what to expect. Can you recommend at least just one VN for me to start with? And a download link would be much appreciate.

Thanks for any help ♥

You could try Sengoku Rance
http://yandere.gray7.com/?page_id=90

Or maybe something like Narcissu

I was in your boat too, and the main recommendation was Tsukihime, which I'm trying and it's pretty good. Here's one of the images they gave me too. Have fun bro.

>> No.3788660

the first vn anyone should ever play is this

http://www.insani.org/releases/OMGWTFOTLSetup[Nanatuha][AT2006].exe.torrent

only take you a minute to download and play.

That list is actually pretty bad.

Sharin no Kuni
Tsukihime
Ever17

These are good for starters.

Planetarian is a good one to start with.

Fate/Stay Night is the only game we all agree is good

in my opinion you should play
Utawarerumono but I'm sure others would disagree, you can download it, the voice patch and the English translation off me if you come on lionhub

Okay, here's my generic list:
Tsukihime
Umineko
Yume Miru Kusuri
Saya no Uta
Sharin no Kuni
Kira Kira

You can find most of these with stantard Google-fu or with help of http://vnddl.webs.com/list.txt

Definitely Saya no Uta.

Liking something is an opinion. One can't argue with someone about what opinion they have. They are either telling the truth or not, and one has no way of knowing which it is.

Kira Kira is good. That's the first VN I played.

Ever17 is amazing, but it's so good it might make everything else look bad after.

Saya no Uta is kind of disturbing. You may want to wait on that one until later.

Fate/Stay Night is probably a good pick for your first VN.

i wonder if there's any copy of the 1.1 patch.

1.0 is kinda outdated and has that loading problem where it takes over 5 minutes to load because of excessive script size, half of which are worthless comments.
