I took a nap and dreamed that I was in a VN. Every character in it had my personality traits or was suffering from my own problems and I couldn't solve them. Before I woke up the MC looked at his backlog and realized that in all his time in the VN he only finished 3 routes of 10. He liked that VN and wanted to do the other routes but also wanted to read his growing backlog. What a nightmare and it was all-ages. During my nap a download finished. Backlog +1.

It's only her second role. Inexperienced seiyuu sometimes have an amateurish sounding voice quality like that. Maybe they grabbed her from ASMR works. ASMR seiyuu always sound unnatural in eroge. I'm surprised CUBE recast her already for the next game as another main.

Also some other anime and all ages gacha.
For porn I bet she has some uncredited roles on Fanza porn gacha too.
I think a girl going from all ages gacha/anime side roles to eroge and porn gacha is more likely than an ASMR girl, ASMR never really teaches them to act, and they're mostly just freelancers working with a doujin circle, some even from their home with their own equipment. While a girl that's part of an agency that works both eroge and all ages is eventually going to get these offers too.

vndb is better insofar that users can write comments about how they read it and by looking at a user's other times you can tell if you can take them seriously. problem with vndb is that it's not only full of skipfags but also slow ass readers.

script sizes aren't a good estimate either because there can be duplicate text and programming code. people used to extract only the text to measure but that doesn't exist for all games.

voice files can be used for an estimate of minimum length but it doesn't factor in narration and unvoiced characters.

no I'm serious. the appeal of jap porn should be that jap women are exotic, cute and traditional. but then you watch jav and all of it is cuckporn, rape and humiliation porn. the women moan like goats forcing you to mute the audio. they don't look cute with their excessive makeup and cheap porn outfits. they don't act cute with their slutty cheating nip woman behavior and goat moaning. they aren't attractive with their fake tits. jap women have some of the worst looking boobsjobs, almost as bad as botched merican/mexican titjobs from 20 years ago. jav porn looks like shit. photo shoots are also terrible with all their photoshopping. they try to make them look more western but utterly fail and create bizarre aliens. not cute, not sexy.

american pro porn is terrible but the ones that still have a bit of story can be good for a laugh. and while the women are all high on drugs and most of them have disgusting tats and titjobs they still manage to look more natural than jav actresses.

jav porn is shit. nip porn from smaller labels is a bit better but not much. the highest quality stuff is the creepy j idol shit which should be banned. jap amateur porn is still in its infancy due to their old american censorship/porn laws and jav yakuza intimidation. jav sucks and you suck for liking it.

I finished the first route of R.U.R.U.R and thought it was pretty good, but now that I'm starting on actual heroine routes they're so much better it's kinda crazy. It's fun to play a mid 2000s game filled with constant literary references for symbolism although I admit I don't get why they keep referencing Solomon Grundy, beyond a couple lines comparing MC to him.
Also the another episode system where they give you the tools to write your own short stories using the VN's engine and then save them as files that can be exported and downloaded to other games to read other people's fanfiction is pretty cool, I can't believe nobody else has ever done that.

so renai royale was sort of fun as long as i did shiomine-kaichou's route
you can't go wrong with the "useless smug ojou + competent but fed-up-with-her-shit meido" combo and they did not miss the mark here
in fact that was the saving grace really, it was lighthearted and mostly free of drama, it was basically a fun time with the most borderline neurotic and 面倒くさっ gf you could imagine whilst the other heroines seethed and bitched and whined in the background and she smugged on them (and then whined and cried about it later)
the most that passed for drama was her maid running away because the girl literally could not shut up about bragging about her boyfriend, to the point where the resolution was essentially letting her sleep with (You) so she'd shut the fuck up (there was the option to not but any sane person knows that dating an ojou comes with at least one (1) free meido as a bonus)

and this was fun and i loved it, so i thought, let's do the ぶりっ子 kouhai idol's route too cause she's cute
and it's fucking awful and it's nonstop idol drama and gf drama and renai drama and drama drama drama played for serious and the other girls barely even show up, it's just drama but bad because at no point up until now have they pretended like these characters are worth knowing about deeply enough to care about drama
if i wanted actual relationship drama i would read literally anything else
i'm here because i want to see some comedic hanky-biting and gununus and see characters i don't give any shits about be jelly

i already could not care less about the yandere imouto with down syndrome and the mentally retarded pink thing with ADHD
i am not here to care

Begins with incredible moodal control (partially carried by the soundtrack) and simple, yet dense concepts regarding the angel and monster presented with extremely strong tonal intrigue. However the story quickly peels back its layers to reveal a flat protagonist that, at best, is a crude caricature of a stereotypical insane person, simultaneously mocking the player and eroge in general in the process while doing almost nothing to explore the themes it originally presented.

Tough to say what's a good start. Maybe go by the setting that appeals to you most?

Kanon is solid but goes a bit to shit in Maeda written routes.
Air is underrated in the West and more appreciated in Japan. Its true route is great but the other heroine routes are underwhelming.
Clannad is too fucking long and has too many routes. If you're autistic about 100%ing it'll drive you nuts, Little Busters is just as bad with missable scenes. Clannad has good heroines but it drags, the comedy is very old fashioned/very hit&miss. A few routes are very weak or shit while other routes are great. The lack of Hisaya is noticeable. Clannad is still very good but maybe a bit overwhelming in content as a first game. And while it's an unpopular opinion I'll say it anyway, Clanand being all-ages was a mistake. It has some of the best key heroines and you can't fuck them. The payoff for the routes isn't the same even with Itaru's art. It can make me laugh and cry but my dick is unsatisfied.

I think those 3 are still the best to start with.

Logic says yes, because when you play an erotic game your goal is to wank one out and when you can't do that then whatever it is you're playing is not delivering.
In reality it's obviously a bit different and sometimes, maybe on average even, taking part in the wild ride is just fine as is.

And then there is the issue of eroge h-scenes being by and large trash to begin with. Maybe if you're just starting out all of this will be an issue but with a few years on the back you don't care too much, I think.

"Bad art" is a bit vague, but:
To me it's not rare that fundamental problems end up not being a deal breaker because of the artist's strong or unique style that overtakes logical problems. I think imperfections are part of art.

On the other hand I can get annoyed at small anatomical/proportion issues. For example with a girl character wearing a skirt, if I notice the legs/crotch not lining up with where the hips/waist is supposed to be. Or during H-scenes if the intimate parts are not how or where they should be. I won't let it bother me too much per se but it's still something I wish they would've fixed.
I guess I see it from the perspective that "I like this work, and this could've been better without that thing" rather than "that thing here is awful, fuck it al".

Varies a lot. There are years old ddls that miraculously still work and some newer ones that are dead. Without asking the uploaders directly it's anyone's guess how often they reupload deleted ddls without us knowing.

Some tricks I've learned is to look at which filehosts are offered. On ryuu there are older uploads with (gdrive1 gdrive2 terrasomething onedrive) which are almost always dead, not even worth trying. Certain other groups of hosts always have at least 1 working ddl.
On A-S you can essentially ignore most old threads and long dead hosts.

WA1 has somewhat older characters, takes place in the 90s and has idol heroines.
WA2 has somewhat younger characters, feels like it takes place in current times and has musician heroines.

So I'm not sure both should be directly compared as better/worse. I appreciate both universes for different reasons. I'll admit I haven't read WA1 though and only watched the anime adaption so feel free to discard my opinion. It had a pretty nice atmosphere though.

Generally, no. Once I've gotten over the initial hurdle of accepting an artstyle for what it is, it never bothers me after that. Glaring errors like the wrong number of fingers or the art completely mismatching the text can still take me out of a story, but that goes without saying.
What messes me up is bad voice acting. If a seiyuu is miscast or just generally atrocious it can ruin a whole visual novel for me. Sometimes I turn all the voices off; sometimes I just stop reading the VN altogether.

I bought a mipad5 some time last year because reading VNs in bed is quite comfy. Once you're out of interesting games running in Kirikiroid2 there's really not many options, though, other than the sporadic android port. There's some chink x86 linux vm trying to run games using wine which works about as good as you expect, might be an option for early 2000 games.
