Visual novels I've played
I guess I like playing visual novels because it's funny to see the innocent looking game suddenly take a sickening plot twist of gore and cannibalism. I'm not saying all visual novels have bad endings in which a heroine or hero end up getting violently assaulted and killed by some yandere character but we can all agree a lot of visual novels have their own dark secrets. While the adult visual novels are purely made F.A.P (for artistic purposes) it still emits that weird, unsettling atmosphere after you've finished with your tissues and decided to look into the storyline a little more.
There are a lot of animes I've watched that are based off visual novels but I usually stick to visual novels since animation companies have this tendency of tearing apart a perfectly good storyline and slapping in some half baked ecchi in hopes that it will attract all those pervy otakus and win them money with some spin off merchandise.
What's to say is that if anybody ever wants to play a visual novel keep in mind that there are age ratings for a reason. If you don't want some terrible r@pe scene to ensue with your favourite character then make sure you actually check the game ratings and game reviews. You'll pick up instantly from other people who've played the game whether it is the right one for you and actually take some hints of what sort of genres are to expected when you play it.
