Welcome to the General VN Discussion thread!
If you have something you'd like to talk about but don't think it's worth posting as a separate thread this is the place for you.
- Did you start playing something new?
- Are there any games you're looking forward to?
- Are you looking for suggestions on what to play?
- Do you have some feedback or questions about our community?
These and any other topics are welcome here - as long as they are VN or community related.
No new patches or VN reading since last thread as I wasn't really in a mental space to do. I'm planning to go back to reading this month but we'll see how it goes.
Happy Pride Month everyone!
