>reading: the game
I wish game designers would finally realise that stuffing more witty dialogue into tutorials
doesn't make them more enjoyable, it just makes them even longer than they need to be.
Making me read a fucking book is okay if you're EVE Online, but if you're not EVE Online then
shut the fuck up and let me DO STUFF.
I mean sure, it's a demo and needs to explain and demonstrate game mechanics, but like 90% of the
demo is text and 10% is doing what you're told to do.

I've never really tried it, but from what I've seen I don't think I'd enjoy it.
I don't hate reading per-se, but if I wanted to read something I'd get a good book and a cup of
tea, sit down in a comfortable chair, and immerse myself, only being interrupted by having to
turn the page. If I have to click every other sentence to see the next bit of text it seems like
an inefficient and needlessly annoying way of presenting information.
It's not like you really care about the content outside of the message box, because one glimpse
is enough. It's a static image that's completely detached from the text (unlike comic books,
where the drawings and accompanying text flow together and you don't have to fucking click after
each speech bubble)
I sound like I'm really butthurt by all of this right now, but really, I'm just feeling very
talkative at the moment.

Why do we no longer have a report option for this?

the only VN I've ever "played" were hentai and I didn't even read them
I just skip the dialogue, save at decision making point and go through the whole game like this
and at the end I just chose a hentai scene and fap to that
lately even that is boring because there are only so many scenarios that can happen it's becoming
annoying

According to moot (I think? Or maybe it was the senior mods), because it was rarely used. More
likely, because nobody used it correctly. It's for bot spam, not what /v/ thinks is "shills"
because people disagreed with their opinion on a game they think is shit.
The idea probably was to prioritise reports; highest priority naturally would be illegal content,
second-highest might've been spam (easy for a human to judge, and needs to be dealt with
quickly), and other rule violations. But don't take my word for it, I'm just guessing.

The gameplay itself is actually pretty fun. It's basically a puzzle of how to save X from Y
situation by manipulating Z objects

Because this game came out years ago? And the company stopped advertising it long ago?

Man, this died with his ass upwards, no dignity at all.
So do you have Danganronpa demo?
