Thanks for the tip! I would like to avoid those fan service games, as I don't enjoy too much when that fan services comes in play in the animes I watch x). couldn't watch food wars because of this, fairy tail even though I greatly dislike atm the everything is always fine because of friendshit and the "oh he died" - next chaper - "nope, im alive", the fan service is definetly one of the worse things, and the mangaka even does that to a fucking 7 year old or something wendy
Anyway, i've been told that milestone's story is also good, so probably be checking that out, the only visual novels i've "played" was Forgotten, Not Lost - A Kinetic Novel and Shan Gui, wich were ok, but nothing out of this world

To add to Quisty's point about half of this bundle is actually story-centric graphic novels and not RomSims/Eroge.
World War Economica, Narcissu, Fault Milestone, Memory's Dogma and Ame no Marginal -Rain Marginal- all have the "No sexual Content" tag on VNDB(the visual novel's version of IMDB)
Of course that doesn't mean they're fanservice-free, they were created to sell in Japan after all where that sells copies and mostly importantly merchandise, but it's less of a focus so that's something.

card values will probably decrease drastically after this bundle

To be honest, the only way that i would want this is just only for the steam cards, these kind of "games" for me they are just, stupid, things that i hate from the actual videogame development, nudes.
I mean, i'm not against some nudes here and there, that's not my point, if there's a reason for that nude, and not "Hey! Watch! A really sexy lady nude" without any reason, just for keep selling the damn game.
Sorry, i had to say it :P

More than half of these don't even have sexual content. At all. Fanservice, sure (like many other games...), but if you're buying this just for porn, you're gonna have a lot of wasted keys.
https://vndb.org/v10 (the original English fan translation of Narcissu was the first VN I ever played)
https://vndb.org/v12694
https://vndb.org/v7184
https://vndb.org/v15252
https://vndb.org/v15940
https://vndb.org/v16695
https://vndb.org/v14973
https://vndb.org/v5000
https://vndb.org/v17655
https://vndb.org/v18387
And the ones that do have sexual content (Karakara, Nekopara, Highway Blossoms, Sunrider) don't have it in their Steam versions. You have to install a separate patch if you want the sex. Don't want the porn, don't install the patch.
The idea that visual novels = anime porn is a misconception that'll never go away, apparently. Visual novels are just what they sound like--stories with pictures (and music, and sometimes voice acting). It's not really helped by the fact that English visual novel developers have been churning out cheap porn games for quick bucks and the fact that most localization companies have to release porn VNs (guaranteed sales, low localization cost) in order to have funds to bring over story-heavy VNs (not guaranteed sales, high localization cost). But there's SO MANY good visual novels out there, and it pains me to see people write off the whole medium because they think it's all porn. It's like someone refusing to watch movies because they assume they're all cheap porn flicks. If you just don't like the experience of reading VNs, that's fine--but at least dislike them for a reason that's relevant.

I undestand your point, that wasn't my intention. Some VN are really good, to be honest, i had played 2 that really like it, Long Live The Queen and Go Go Nippon, that sounds like an irony with go go nippon for the +18 thing but the rest of the game was really good and they only are 2 semi-nudes.
I was talking for titles like Nekopara for example, like you said, cheap porn games for quick bucks, and don't make me start with Sakura games.

No pillowcases with pigeons in cute maid outfits? Then it's a pass for me.
(For those that don't remember - Humble Bundle actually did this 2 years ago.)

ahahah I can imagine in home of many:
"Yes, mom/dad I bought this pillow for charity"

Oh, no no no! If you're bringing this back you have to do it all the way! No half measures here!
THIS MAJESTIC THREAD has to come up as well!
COO!

Unless typical nukige bundles from Jast or mangagamer, those are globally good quality VN.
Root Double alone is worth way more than12$, 50+ hours of reading, think 999 or Ever 17. Wee, Narcissu & Fault are also a good read.
If you still want to fap there are free 18+ patches for Sunrider and Highway Blossom and paying patches for nekopara 1 & 2 on Denpasoft.

JAST is known more for an eroge emphasis than their nukige inclusions (though admittedly they do tend to have at least one of those per bundle), and they tend to have notable game highlights (ex, School Days, Steins;Gate) in their bundles. Think what you want about the JAST bundles, but there's no doubt that putting them on the same level as the exclusively bottom-of-the-barrel trashware that MangaReader offers is an unreasonable and deep insult to JAST. :P

Would have skipped (even though I wanted fault 2 and maybe WEE 1-3) because out of money, but a good friend gifted me the whole thing, Tier 3 and all o_O

Visual novels ? Well there's a genre I have no interest in, so I guess my wallet is safe for now.
