Unfortunately I’m cursed with a short attention span. But while I’m in the mood and frame of mind to play bishojo games I tend to move through them at a langiud pace, maybe taking the odd break of a day or two after a certain amount of play. With multi-path games one reason is that I like the game to last a while, and another is that the lull allows each story to sink in so that maybe I can appreciate it that little more. Of course, the aforementioned short attention span means I rarely get hooked on anything so even the most gripping of stories have little effect on me and allow me to do something else I’d like to know how others approach the playing of bishojo games.
Do you shoot through each path, one after the other? Or if we’re talking a single-path game, do you play straight through or until your eyes bleed? Do you use the text skip after you have viewed stock text in one path to save reading it over? Or do you prefer to experience the full story on each path, even if there’s a chance you’ll screw up along the way and have to start again? Do you save at every fork and reload if you think you made a wrong decision? Do you take a break from playing, for a day or two? Week or two? Etc, etc.
Thanks for your feedback
