That's the only difference? Because they're digital?

...now that's just CRAZY TALK

By that logic, an erotic choose-your-own-adventure book with pictures would also be a game.

I couldn't have said it better raven8. It's the same reason that I try not to say "play" and "game" when talking about visual novels, and instead say "VN" and "read".

Come on now, that's all you've read? :P Please tell me your at least are planning to read several others, cause you're missing several big-name VNs. (Fate/stay night, Ever17, etc.) Heck, you even missed Narcissu and True Remembrance - both of which are free, non-ero, quality VNs, and therefore are u...

If I had to complain, I'd say the limited about of interactivity was a bit of a bummer. I wouldn't assume this is the first visual novel you've read, is it? This is quite a a normal complaint against them and in fact is one of the #1 reasons they get a bad rep (the other being how many are sex romp...

It's so polished that someone on Yahoo! Answers thought this was an incomplete TRANSLATION project of a Japanese VN XD

And as for route/path, honestly I've heard both used. :/

Just a head up about the previous post, whenever Eadwacer used the word "track", he meant "path". I'm guessing Eadwacer is either not a native English speaker or just isn't that familiar with visual novel terminology.

Umm... forgive my ignorance, but what's an EVN?

[large amount of words] It sounds like you aren't too familiar with the visual novel genre, so why not do yourself a favor and check out some others? I personally haven't read any too similar in style to Katawa Shoujo, so I cannot give much advice. However, in terms of visual novels in general, I c...

Maybe for some reason he's playing this on ReactOS? (Act 1 v2 doesn't work on it currently - it IS in alpha state)

Wait, seriously? If so, then I'm guessing what you say on this should have the most credibility?

So I was hoping to try to establish just how portable KS was (like for running off a USB drive or for people with clean-registry OCD) First off, I typically shy away from installers fearing some sort of use of the Windows Registry, but I haven't a clue if KS does this. However, I do know the game it...

Yeah, I know what you mean. It's the same reason I even provided a link to a video because I didn't want to attempt explaining something again (really pressed for time as of typing this).
