I was around 15 or 16 I think... I'd got internet access a few months before and my computer use wasn't monitored very closely; I mostly didn't get into visiting pornsites since it was back in the day when they were teasers that'd bog your whole system down with insistent popups, but I did start pirating games and there was a particular "Juegos Completos Gratis" site that was reliable and had lots of stuff. It had a section marked "NO RECCOMENDATO PARA MENORES" and I was clever enough to have a good idea what that meant and get curious about it. So I downloaded all the old "classics" like Knights of Xentar, Three Sister's Story, and so on and so forth. My favorites were True Love and The Maid's Story since they had the most semblance of actual gameplay (I wasn't all that enthused by how Knights of Xentar played though I enjoyed the comedy of it) but the one that probably had the most impact on me was Nocturnal Illusion, both in the general atmosphere (I still like this sort of gothic-ish vibe) and the character Sari and the incidents around her in particular (pretty sure the Sari "bad choice" ending was the first one I went for and still one of my favorite endings of the game...) I played Divi-Dead somewhat later on and although I kind of hate that game (maybe it would be better if it was competently translated, although "What a fart-blasting scrotum this guy is!" IS priceless...) it did help cement some of what Nocturnal Illusion had laid down in me.
About a year ago I played through Nocturnal Illusion again, with the uncensor patch which I didn't have back in the day (I remember being mightily annoyed by how the game "broke" at the censored part and not knowing why it was like that...) It's not a great game by any means, even hentai-wise, but it was a very nostalgic (and in some ways eye-opening in tracing back some of my tastes) experience for me.
