I don't "play" visual novels expecting gameplay, much like how I don't play games for the story. Though there are times where I am surprised by actual gameplay in a VN or when a game that's already fun to play also has an amazing story.

I mostly treat them as Choose Your Own Adventure books, but digital, and with more pictures.
