If we’re adding gaming communities to the sidebar, my list here of gaming genre-specific communities could be helpful.
Can testify to activity of !automationgames and !otomegames as their mod, to !incremental_games as someone with an account there (even if you do not see it from this side, federation issues…), and to !visualnovels, !shmups, !cozygames, and !lifesimulation someone subbed to them. The others might also have activity, including ones I listed as inactive at the time of that post. I sometimes post to the others on the list I am not subbed to if I come across a game in their genre, but I don’t remember off the top of my head.
I’d imagine people who are really into “Choices Matter” and some people who are really into story would.
I play !visualnovels and half the fun is seeing what decisions lead to different outcomes. And getting different outcomes for different choices, especially if they are big choices, makes me feel like my choices matter and impact the world, as opposed to if all these supposedly important choices can only ever get me 2 or 3 different endings.
Although I do share your question about how popular my opinion is with other gamers.
List more in the comments! I’ll add them if they are a community for a video game genre, and have had at least one post in the last month. Crossposted to !communitypromo here....

!visualnovels can help you out with way more visual novels. Including ones that do not have sex scenes or romance, counter to the stereotype of all VNs as sex games.
(and if you do want romance in your VNs, but from a female perspective, !otomegames has you)
If you end up liking Crusader Kings 3 you might also like Crusader Kings 2
If you actually do enjoy this genre and want some unironic takes (and no, they are not all dating sims or erotica) take a look at !visualnovels! Also related is !otomegames, a VN subgenre: dating sims aimed at women with male love interests. For transparency, I mod the second one but not the first.
Finished my first BG3 run, man the acting is great, especially at the when characters get their big emotional moments. I’m thinking “that’s acting!”, also recognised Omni Man immediately....
