A survey eh? For Visual Novels I'll fill this anytime!
1) Protagonist with complete sprites; I'd rather immerse myself in the story rather than seeing it as 'myself'. But if it's between eyeless protagonist sprites to no sprites I'll take no sprites because good god it looks horrible.
2) Close to a hundred I guess, there are a lot that I didn't complete 100% though (not worth the effort for its crappy quality).
3) When I download a VN, I usually look for guaranteed conflicts. I look for Dark/Fantasy/Sci-Fi themes that portray strong moral conflicts; as such I am a fan of Nitroplus' works. Those are just plain epic (Although I haven't started on Steinsgate). I look for a VN that offers me new worlds and laws to explore. I dislike pure love VNs because most of them are of horrendous quality, save for some like Clannad and Kanon. ToHeart was also a special exception (First time I felt like nosebleeding over an pure love ero scene). I cannot understand why people would like Da Capo.
4) None too big. I bought a terabyte of external for exactly this purpose lawl.
5) True. This question is pointless I guess; everyone chooses stuff to their own preferences.
6) Refer to 3.
7) True. Again, redundant question.
8) Not sure what you mean. Sexual fetishes? Rape, Unawares (Henshin Henshin as an example), Degeneration. A man's dark fantasies lawl.
9) False. How could you know the character's personalities before even reading the story? There are VNs however which I decided not to repeat after a first playthrough because the characters are horribly generic.
10) Bland, generic, indecisive, over-stereotyping.
11) The only ones I've chosen to follow are Cradle Song and Katawa Shoujo. The others are not worth checking or discontinued after some time.
12) A lot. I've followed Katawa Shoujo for years; just didn't write a fan fiction for it.
13) No. There are a tonne of low quality English VNs out there, true; but Katawa Shoujo and Cradle Song (WIP) are some of the absolute best (among the English community) I've read.
14) All of your specification are exactly the reason I'll play them lawl. I would prefer not to play pure love VNs, but that's most because they have a poor storyline. Yes, if a VN has a bland/generic/utterly stupid/illogical storyline that just plain sucks I'll not bother with it. Most of this horrendous qualities can be identified right away from their sypnosis; and there's always reviews to check up.
15) Other than the fact your title is disturbingly similar to Higurashi, no. But it's always good if you can come up with something that'll surprise us in a good way.
16) No, but the breasts on the right portrait looks fake.
17) I'm not Canadian, sorry.
18) Not Canadian. Actually, I don't think it's a good idea to restrict an event to its country; people celebrate things differently from each other.
19) Um, it looks like a real life photo background with poorly drawn comic lines added to the edges of the building. I haven't play Higurashi yet (going through certain reviews say that the storyline is not finished, but that was quite some time ago. I'll check it up later), but it did not sit well with me. Check Katawa Shoujo if the idea is to snap some real life pictures and use them.

It's a fan installment to When They Cry. The original art was actually quite like that, except the sprites had a... "unique" style

Higurashi IS complete, and you can buy it off of http://www.mangagamer.com/
However, the music was removed from arcs 1 - 4 due to copyright reasons. You can download the patch to fix it here:

Other patches for Higurashi can be found here:

1. Sprite-less, having the protagonist's face in the lower corner with the dialogue is alright.
2. 85
3. Story/Gameplay - I mostly pick up VNs based on how good the plot is (gathered from reviews or ratings), or the gameplay makes up for the lack of a good plot.
4. None. If I hear good things about a VN, I'll download it regardless of file size.
5. I will try any kind of VN whether it appeals to my tastes or not. So yes I will download them. But downloading and trying doesn't mean I will play through the VN entirely.
6. Although I'm willing to try anything, I prefer more vanilla romance/comedy, or psychological/philosophical themes.
7. False.
8. -
9. False.
10. -
11. Rarely.
12. Never.
13. Yes. Improved artwork/graphics would help.
14. [x] - Bloody gore (I'm fine with it most of the time, but stuff like Dustmania Grotesque...)
[x] - Other (Scat, heavy heavy heavy NTR)
15. Nice and clean. I like my title screens to be simple and to the point, with not trouble finding the things I want. The leaves in that are a little bit clustered, I would prefer them to be a bit more thinned out around where the selection buttons are.
16. Very nice. My only complaint is that her breast looks a little bit off... like they are jutting out a bit too much in the direction she is facing.
17. I'm Canadian myself, but I'm against having anything distinctly Canadian for attire (ie. red/white all around, flag etc.). If your characters are Canadian, then just have them wear what you would wear for winter. It's not like we're a bunch of raving, self-important, nationalists. Would you wear your national colours and flag out on a regular day?
On the other hand, if you're set on having the characters wear winter clothes, just make them wear heavier jackets, gloves, and toques. Maybe a scarf or two wouldn't hurt.
Personally, for me, I wear a down jacket (like this, but with a hood), scarf, and leather gloves. I dislike wearing anything on my head except for earmuffs. A lot of people also wear winter boots, but I don't like them cause they are clunky, so I just wear runners/trainers that are waterproof (eg. leathery materials).
18. Red, green, and blue. Christmas colour lights. As mentioned above, I feel that having distinctly Canadian colour is very awkward and abnormal.
19. Seems fine to me.

1. Do you prefer visual novels which show the protagonist's sprite in most the scene's he's in, like Battler from Umineko? Or do you prefer spriteles protagonists who you could only see in CGs or scenes opposite to his point of view?
I think it's ok if he doesn't appear in most scenes, but it would also be refreshing otherwise. I don't mind a faceless protagonist, but generally if he's not bad looking I would prefer he has a face.
2. How many visual novels do you recall you have played?
I'm getting near 20.
3. Of those vn that you played, what made you most want to download them?
My pre-req is H-content, because I'm horny, then I look at the graphics, then I look at the description and comments. None of these particular aspects are more important than another, but this is the chrono order i search in.
4. What file size is "too much" to download a visual novel?
I'm fine with anything, really.
5. "I would only download a visual novel where the drama or themes appeals to my particular interests" FALSE... i guess?
6. What kind of drama or themes?
huh?
7. "I would only download a visual novel where the character's fetishes appeal to my interests" FALSE, unless it's a real big turnoff, i'll be fine with it
8. What kind of fetishes?
Well, if you're talking about my fetishes, those would be... hm. loli/pettanko, school swimsuits, ties, ashikoki, shimapan, stockings, cat/fox ears, twintails, sometimes dark skin, a well-made tsundere, kuudere...
9. "I would only download a visual novel where the character personalities appeal to me?
If a personality (especially protag) pisses me off, I'm gone.
10. What kind of personalities?
I enjoy reliable protags, (who are weak when it comes to dealing with romance)
11. How much do you READ WIP topics for VN projects in message boards?
Not really.
12. How much do you RESPOND to WIP Visual Novel topics?
I am right now... right?ish...
13. In all honesty. Do you feel English Visual Novels are lower quality? What could make you play them?
Katawa Shoujo has broken that steereotype, however I'm still somewhat put off by the ones are are "originaly english," mainly b/c the graphics are also bad though too.
14. I will not play a game with any of this content:
[maybe ] - Bloody gore
[hope it doesn't get too intense ] - Psychology horror
[don't go rapin' anyone you've developed in a good light ] - Rape as drama
15. Impressions from the title screen? (Minus the filler copyright info...) Image.
Decent. Those menu buttons are annoying me though, try something... how to say this.. softer?
16. Impressions from the sprite style? Image.
It's actually on par with many VNs and I wouldn't be put off by it...
Oh look, megane, I actually dislike that one, galsses that is.
17. Ideas for winter attire (Coats, etc...) in Canadian climate?
Lol google it.
A well-done scarf is awesome though, btw.
18. What colors do you think of when you hear "Canadian Christmas!"
When i hear canadian I think maple leaf.
19. Impressions on the Higurashi-inspired BG style? Image.
This is good, pretty good.
If you have lots more BGs and sprites like the ones you've showed us so far, then I am very very very impressed. Are you working on this alone? if so, i bow down to you.

The title screen (and title itself) is being totally redone.
Yes we have a lot more BGs like that, and sprites, and CGs.
Here's a more recent WIP:

I'm saving making another thread though until we could release VN content.

1. Face
2. Around 30, but not all of them to 100%.
3. Interesting premise, series relation, rated highly by others, saw the anime and wanted more~
4. Does not matter but I prefer it if I can find a torrent download.
5. True
6. Psychological disorders, near death situations, high school romance, alienation, sci fi, feudal fantasy, musical performances, horror.
7. True
8. Kemonomimi, loli, monster girls, futanari, yuri.
9. True
10. Kuudere, yandere, antisocial, shy, computer expert, over the top happy go lucky, DID, spacy.
11. I don’t read message boards often. Actually, not sure why I’m responding to this thread.. But if I do read a WIP vn topic it’s because I was looking up the vn in the first place.
12. Never ;o;
13. Do you mean officially translated ones? I feel some of them are but not in comparison to the untranslated version of the same vn. It’s simply a matter of officially translated titles often being not all that great in the first place. There are exceptions of course. Lately, some decent titles have been/are being localized. A bit is lost in translation, as with anything, but it doesn’t make the titles inferior to the originals, just different. The same can be said for fan translated ones. As for what would make me play them, plot namely...
Oh wait, you meant original english visual novels? I havent read any so cannot say, sorry.
14. I will not play a game with any of this content:
[ ] –Other -> boyslove. Nothing against it but I just wouldn’t enjoy it. Unless it involves cross-dressed shota but then it isn’t really bl is it? Not that I would seek out such a game, just saying I would be willing is all >>
15. Don’t care for the green dots much on the buttons but overall it gives a nice impression. Feels lonely and mysterious while also reminding me of summer.
16. mune ha ookisugiru. But nicely drawn aside from the hands. The first pose gives me the impression of her coming onto someone. The second of her trying to act younger than she is.
17. Those Russian hats. I love those hats.. But I guess this is about Canada. Toques are where it’s at. Knitted ones with silly patterns on em. Also muffer/scarfs I suppose. As for coats, iunno, same as American coats. I live in Canada and I don’t see much of a difference in winter attire to be honest but the climate varies by location as Canada’s really big :D The coat design should more relate to the characters personality I would think.
18. What colors do you think of when you hear "Canadian Christmas!"
I think of red, green and white but those are the same colours I think of when I hear Christmas. I’d like to say orange just to throw you off but eh.
19. Interesting, kinda feels like a BG that would be used when the story is happening from the perspective of a/the criminal prior to committing a crime. Then again, it could also be used when someone is entering the building to investigate a disturbance or something as the building gives off an eerie feel, more so than anything else in the scene.
