If you liked Danganronpa, zero escape saga seems pretty similar with a more serious plot. Subahibi and Umineko are my favs vns atm.

For starters (me), go for Steins;Gate if you're a huge geek.

Since you have F/SN and that means you're fine with action, then I'd recommend Rewrite.

I kinda recommend all of these even though I haven't played them all. There was something that made me buy or free download these. Most can be gotten off of itch.io. A current list of the Visual Novels that I have on my computer is:

Amplitude
C14 Dating
Nachtigal
DDLC (everyone knows about this already).
Backstage Pass ( I have played this several times. I really like it. Its hard for me though).
Yousei
Mutsumi Date
KiriBaku (I don't actually ship them but I can't believe someone made a game of them).
Out of Sight
Offscreen Scandal
Jisei
Sleepover
Worst Dating Sim
Come for a Drink
The Crossroads
Payback
Seiyuu Danshi (good so far).
No Thank You (decent so far. Its long. I haven't gotten far).
Kansei

I also play Hakuoki which is a classic. As well as 7's scarlet, and Sweet Fuse: at your side.

Any console preference or are you mostly on PC? Also, I have no idea if some of these have eng translation, but here are some I enjoyed ;

Higurashi no naka koru ni HOU (I'm actualy currently reading and am enjoyed the hell out of it) on Switch.
The Grisaia series (I did them on Vita since they all have physica copies and the phantom trigger are comming too.)
Owaru sekai to birthday. (Pretty sure this is only on Vita?)
Dunamis 15 and it's sequel Disorder 6 (slightly less good) on PS3. (Probably on PC)

The Hakuoki games are otome but they are actualy really good if you don't mind the romance aspect. They are on various consoles.

Rare to see someone having played Toradora Portable, wow. Why not try Oreimo Portable? It's on PSP too and there are two disks. The first disk is translated already but the second one is not yet done tho it is nearing completion already. You can play the 1st disk for the mean time. It's quite lengthy so it'll be a nice time waster while you're waiting for the 2nd one.

I've only played some yaoi visual novels, Amnesia: Memories, and Saya no Uta. Saya no Uta is phenomenal, but the endings are gravely disappointing. There is a remake of it that was recently released, but it is in Russian (so not even I can play it).

Aw, I found the endings to be really good. The "true" ending was the best you could get with such a story and it really makes you think about what the whole VN tried to say. The other main ending was also really damn good and terrifying.

I think it ended too abruptly, and that is the problem. It is as if the creator decided to end the VN at a random part. The endings should have been longer and more developed, in my opinion. They left you wondering "What happens next?", and the fact that there is no official sequel makes it disappointing because you never get the answer.

Well it's a short VN, and I think the pacing was consistently good throughout, with shit going down really soon and new plot developments introduced every 30 minutes. The progression to the ending was also well done imo. I didn't feel like it just ended at a random part. Maybe it was just too fast paced.

No one's mentioned muv luv yet, wow ok
You should definitely give the Muv Luv trilogy a go, I call it trilogy but only the third one, muv luv alternative stands out.

It's known as the best visual novel so give it a go. The first one is a boring cliche harem shit but it's there to introduce you to the character, the real thing starts with the second game.

I see that you have Steins;gate in your favorite anime list, so I think that you will enjoy its' VN. You may think that it would be boring to read the same story again, but the VN is a lot more detailed and for me it's also more atmospheric. Furthermore, there are different routes for each character. The anime is one of my favorites but I like the VN even more.

Umineko no naku koro ni is an amazing VN, easily one of my favorites.. It's a murder mystery, but you need to put some hours into it before it really gets exciting (but imo that's the case in most VNs). Also it's really long, but you're already playing LB! so length shouldn't be a problem here. The OST is one of the best I've ever listened to, and the "bad" art is very charming, but there's a patch that updates them with better ones and also adds voice acting.

Higurashi is also a must read, imo. It's really well made because the first episode will leave you confused (like Umineko) but the remaining episodes give you more and more informations for solving the mystery.

If you liked Fate/stay night, I would also reccomend Tsukihime, it's by the same author and also really similiar, you should like it if you liked Fate/Stay night.

G-Senjou no Maou is also pretty great, the main route is the best part of it, the side stories are okay but nothing more, still one of my favorite VNs out here.

I haven't played/read many myself.

Some mentioned Tuskihime but I never finished it because I started getting bored. It felt really slow...

I liked two of the endings but they did feel just a little underdeveloped in length and detail. The pacing seemed consistent throughout for the most part. I don't think the main route had anywhere to go beyond that which wasn't obvious so I can't see a point of a sequel.

After playing I kept anxiously questioning everything around me that I experience. Left me acting odd for a few days >.>
