Visual novels are a popular form of entertainment that a lot of casual gamers enjoy. While it may not be for everyone, for some, the genre is a form of art that transcends other types of novels in the way that they relay material, their format, and their accessibility. Visual novels can be anywhere from millions of words to a few thousand depending on the show, adaptation, or language. In comparison, there are novels that were written, such as\u00a0Mahabharata <\/em>(1.8 million words)\u00a0and\u00a0The Odyssey <\/em>(129, 443 words).<\/em><\/p>\n

The amount of dialogue that comes from visual novels is usually because of the length of them compared to things like films, TV, or other novels and allows most video games to be able to have sub-plot lines, branching plots, lots of variable endings,\u00a0 or hidden and optional choices of answers\/speech. This often leads to a much longer writing process for those that create them, and they are seldom as straightforward as a usual film or novel. Most of the visual novels in this list take over 30+ hours to complete, and this list excludes any explicit content, though it can be noted that most visual novels have an SFW version of them out there, as well.<\/p>\n
