When do you play your visual novels?

Do you just get up and play your visual novels or do you wait to get in the mood of

things before starting to play them? or something else?


Personally i wait for a mood where i can be completely absorbed by the story before playing it but those moods are quite random sometimes so i could be waiting for some days for the mood to come. Other than that i sometimes force myself to get in the mood but those are 50/50 chances.

No need of special preparation. If anytime during playing I feel bored/tired, I stop for the day. My motto is to enjoy all VNs and not just rush through them just for the sake of H-scenes.

Of course if I get hooked I go on for hours, it's as good as reading a novel/e-book, can't stop till the end!

My free time is divided between anime, manga and VN.

Usually when I have nothing else to do, and I'm bored to death. Yeah, they're not a priority to me in any way.

Drawing > games > anime > movies > alot of other stuff > VNs

Mostly because I don't have much pacience to read through the bricks and walls of text. And I get especially dismotivated when I start one and the story does not amuse me.

Whenever I feel like it...

It also helps if the VN's Mood matches mine...

I guess when I feel like it. There are some I need to finish.

When the moment calls for it.

I play them when I have the time.

^this
You can feel it when it comes..

when somethings reminds me of their epicness

Agreed. VNs are best played when I have "the feeling".

i just play when i want to that's all

Whenever I realize I have like 67 on my laptop. That's when.

When i'm free, even better if the mood matches the game.

Lesson Learned: When one starts working, everything else will only get done once there is free time. :eng101:

Then again, it might not apply to everyone.

I play in burst. I won't play for weeks, but then I'll play one for like half the day. Fate/Stay night was that way, and so was Clannad. Ever17 seems like its going to be that way too since I haven't looked at it since I downloaded it. Thats all the ones I've played though so ^___^

when i feel that i want to sit down and read something usually happens around 1-2 am.

From 11pm to 3am or so (I'm a college guy, that is the only time i have free time)
