Do people genuinely enjoy when a game has mini games or combat in them? I think sometimes it can ruin immersion and be unnecessary, though obviously there are people that enjoy them since it's apart of so many games.
Do you genuinely like mini games/combat in games?

Sure, for me it's why I would call it a game

Very rarely. I especially hate those lazy click-as-fast-a-you-can mini-"games".
That said, a relaxed logic-based puzzle can provide a nice break. The party management stuff in Being a DIK springs to mind.

I just can't stand “mini-games” as the vast majority of them focus solely on the player's reaction speed while breaking the gameplay of the main game. I delete all games and VNs with such “mini-games” without the slightest thought and mark them on my blacklist.

Hell no, I FUCKING HATE that shit.

Not really. Usually the minigames are not fun and are just an addition to pad the playtime. A "puzzle" like having to connect colored wires or something for a fusebox I find okay though.

It depends on the game. Ex: the match 3 in a VN just gets in the way but if it's a match 3 in a puzzle game then sure. It's all about consistency.

It really just depends on the game for me

Same here.

I have never seen a minigame in one of these that I didn't want to skip. Ones that can't be skipped are a "bastard dev" thing.

Depends on how they are implemented. Most minigames are just annoying fillers. Combat, however, can be very intense and can be the main appeal of a game. And sometimes even 'combat' mechanics that look like a minigame turn out to be fun. For example in 'Love of Magic', I really like the poker-card-game combat.

I like puzzles and combat as long as they are either escalating in difficulty, or fast to solve/end. That said I haven't come across good examples in adult games as it is like making a second game on top.

They do eventually get boring. There was one that had a fishing game that was mandatory for $ gain. That got bad fast.

No. They often break a moment and usually done poorly.

Thats true but rarely they are good tho.

In adult games? Absolutely not.
