What are you playing atm, and are you waiting for to release? (+ your favs/least fav games)

[yuuri69]

I have a huge backlog to begin with from both games that I own and games that I pirate XD.
So I'm playing a lot of games at the same time. Some of them are Sweet Clown and Paradise fandisks. Other than that, I'm playing gacha games, nu carnival, noctilucent, what in hell is bad, ikepri and ikevil.

I really like Sweet Clown so far, it's very different from any other otome game that I have played. I specifically love the heroine.
Now paradise, I love Azuma he's so adorable. I like the fandisks better than the main game. Pilslash and pilvamp games are always fun.

I don't have specifically least fav games, but games that I enjoy the least, usually have school settings. I find them a little boring plotwise, but I'll still play them for the LIs (especially hot teachers lmao Bad Medicine). I do have school setting fav games too, like Gekka Ryouran Romance, Moshikami, Shingakkou and Sweet Pool.

Fav games i have way too many, but the ones that I always go back and replay are Hashihime, Shingakkou, Chou no doku and Tokimeki Girls side series. I don't think that I have a game from rejet or pilslash/vamp that i didn't enjoy.

I'm impatiently waiting for Ooe and DistortedCode to release.

 

[otome!]

I widh takiyo localised their games sweet clown does look amazing! I don't think I got paradise, is it on AS?

As for me I'm also playing several games at the same time cuz why not and same as you my backlog is way too huge, it already came up to around a hundred with games I bought and now that I'm also download pc games here it increased further.

I'm currently playing Jack Jeanne (Hopefully I'll finish it soon), Code: Realize Future Blessing, Arcana Famiglia MG and a bit of Shinsouban Heart no kunj no alice^^ As well as many others I don't play actively right now lol. And I also was playing some imemen games and mysme but I'm taking a break for now!

I really like angst and despair in otome games and usually plot heavy is better but I don't have any sort of preference, and I don't think I ever played a bad game unless maybe like midnight cinderella (which fxcking doesn't make sense, it's completely carried by nostalgia lol)

Fave game is even if tempest! Husband is Crius (but I love all of them, I'm not really an ish girl however I LOVE conrad, worst piece of shit I ever saw, he's perfect)

I'm waiting for EVEN IF TEMPEST DLC LETS GOOOOOOO

but also the new games announced by amulit so like redbell and especially kaleido tower, but also bustaf2 eng, side kicks jp, full circle jp, utakata no uchronia en, tsuitsui en, over requiemz jp, high school bunnies jp!

but ofc i'm looking forward to every otome release^^

 

[NagromRuhtra]

Finally went through my backlog this summer and finished a LOT of games. Only got Ayakashi Gohan (which I'm currently playing), My Vow to My Liege, and Steam Prison left.

My faves so far are the two Psychedelica games, NORN9, the Tokimeki Girl's Side games (especially TMGS3 because Tamao Konno), Amnesia:Memories (and LaterxCrowd), Him the Smile and Bloom, Radiant Tale (not so much the story but I love the colors in this game so much), and Cupid Parasite (Raul my beloved). Also Western "otome" games like Tailor Tales, OBSCURA, and Speakeasy.

I'm mostly looking forward to playing 9 R.I.P, Club Suicide, Mistonia no Kibou and Temirana ^-^

the fact you finished all tmgs games is worthy of praise ngl

TMGS1 was especially hellish tbh it was so difficult at times, but my love for madoka kijyo made up for it

And I forgot to mention I also really liked Hakuoki, especially SSL

It's really good sweet clown! It has a script so if you can emulate the game you can use agent + a translator and play it in English! But yeah I wish they localized their games too...And yes paradise both English and Japanese versions are here actually in hentai bl and r18 otome section!
Arcana Famiglia is so cute! I like hunex games i need to fish steam prison and also play tokyo renka!

I love trashy men too I wish more villains had route
I want to play ayakashi Gohan and blackish house, only played starry sky from honeybee games.

And talking about tmgs, tmgs4 fantranslation is 80% ready

I want to play 9rip and uchronia too And virche. So many to play so little time

ohhh it's a bl, thats why then lol i unfortunately dont play bl

yeah i look forward to tokyo renka too! completely forgot it'll be out next month haha

WE NEED MORE TRASHY MEN, i'm so sad rejet died because they were basically the only ones who understood that but maybe there'll be a new rejet company someday!!

I really need to play virche, it looks like it's my typa game but idkwhy i'm procrastinating haha
so many games to play and so little time FOR REAL

i don't understand either why konami doesn't localize their game, they've been fantranslated for YEARS and the fandom is quite big even though it hasn't been localized yet, idk what's stopping them??

 

[yuuri69]

Oh yes pilslash is their bl branch but pilvamp their r18 otome one. They have 3 r18 games (Mashou megane, ai wa nikushimi and kusunoki) and some drama situation cds too.
I'm glad hunex is back i really wish that they can port Arcana Famiglia roo and localize it. Glad that they're very open about it. Voltage too. Other companies should take example because it's such a niche fandom. The bigger the audience the better more $$$.

Konami and Koei are really from i fav companies because they have gameplay in their games. I wish they could localize them too, but kudos to dedicated fan tlrs ❤

I guess for the same inane reason why uta no prince sama still hasn't been localized despite everybody all around the world already knowing everything about it

this fr there even was a LIVE in LA if i remember well but no, seems like they never got the update since 2002 that western ppl do like otome games as well

 

[Anie_Reichi★]

I also have lot of backlogs from steam and itch.io (I don't have much free time to play sadly ). Currently playing Bustafellow and Ken ga Kimi FD at the same time. I can only play Bustafellow whenever my sister have free time because we're playing together so in the meanwhile, when I'm alone and have free time, I play Ken ga Kimi FD. Other than that, I play Love and Deepspace on mobile (a Hardcore Zayne and Caleb girlie here )

My favorite otome is a lot tbh. But some of them (that I still remember) are Ken ga Kimi, Ayakashi Gohan (the music is so beautiful and Kazuaki's art is also pretty), Starry Sky (this is my first otome game series and they hold a special place in my heart), Tokyo Yamanote Boys, Black Wolves Saga (the game is my first dark otome game by rejet, sooo ofc they also hold a special place in my heart ), Dot Kareshi (the series are so funny to me ) , MIYAKO (Although I don't quite like the FD, the first game is a masterpiece to me).

Least Fave Games: Generally I don't particularly enjoyed the game where I am annoyed by the protagonist or the love interest... Even if it's famous otome games. Some of them I dropped them because I'm too annoyed... I don't want to drop the names to avoid conflict

Currently I'm eagerly waiting for Arcana Famiglia steam release , and also ongoing games who don't know when will be released but still I'm excited to wait for them : touchstarved and peachleaf valley

 

[Arisara]

My favorite games Ayakashi Gohan, Code Realize, Tokimeki Memorial,Nameless, DMD and Second Reproduction. Currently playing Dark Nights - Reflections ( Chain<3) and " Let me in " from itch yo . Its free . Waiting 2nd chapter The Silent Kingdom

 

[pzahhak]

My backlog is absolutely massive, but am currently playing both Cupid Parasite Sweet & Spicy Darling and Jack Jeanne. Really enjoying my time with those, but my absolute fave otome series so far is Code Realize. Super hyped for when the Birushana FD drops!

 

[Fishish]

I have already played it in japanese but im curently reading the paradise musubi english release. I picked up a bunch more visual novels on the recent steam sale also but mainly horror ones that ive recently decided to try my hand at like the house of fata morgana, mamiya and raging loop!

 

[Shikuromi]

I'm in backlog hell
Currently I am slowly finishing BYAKKO and Orfleurs!

My favorite games are Watashi no Real wa Juujitsu Shisugiteiru, TMGS3, Hakuouki, and Tennis no Ouji-sama ~Gakuensai no Ouji-sama~!

Least favorite games: I wasn't a big fan of Fashioning Little Miss Lonesome...
This is more so gameplay wise and not plot/character wise. As much as I love TMGS1, I got frustrated spending so many hours trying to get Himuro-sensei and Kei that I ended up dropping it after finishing up Morimura's route. I'm also traumatized by the chocolate making event T.T One day I'll get the motivation to complete it.

Im excited for The Goddess Of Tears～Restoration～ and all the upcoming games that Mu plans to release! They are quite ambitious announcing 5 games that they are working on. Also waiting for Qualia/Δ, though it seems like Primrose is more focused on Houkai Sekai no Navigatore first.

 

[nightivory]

I have a lot of games in my backlog and things I'm looking forward to and/or intend to play :)

I'm currently waiting for Temirana and some upcoming otome games!

But right now, I'm currently playing Mistonia and Paradise, an otome and bl game respectively :) They're both super fun to play, and the vibes are totally different. Mistonia probably has one of my favorite female protagonists I've ever seen in any otome game, to be honest. I really want more games with main protagonists like her!

Paradise is great, and while I'm not normally the biggest fan of mystery games, I enjoy how everything has unraveled so far.

 

[Beannie]

I have after what felt like forever finished Hiiro no Kakera (first game) Cannot say it is horrendous game, but I would give it snoozefest of the year award. Needed something quick and face paced, so I started Hime no Rakuen (my first r18 too) and I am having a blast.

Looking forward to Handsome Laundering the most ><, since I absolutely adore Hanakare (anyone in Gin-chan's fan club?)

 

[lambdadelta]

currently playing collar x malice... but i kinda abandoned it to play sos grand bazaar lol. i'll definitely finish it soon though. i like club suicide (despite the english version being kinda disastrous), genso manège, hakuouki, hanakare and tmgs3! also waiting on touchstarved and ooe.

[vienne34]

I just played heart cage, now I don't want to play any other otome games because other otome games make me feel bored. I'm interested in crazy chain, which is released for half a year, but I'm worried about the game script.

 

[coopaler2206]

I'm currently down to my last achievement in Hollow Knight: Silksong—completing Steel Soul Mode with 100%. Once I wrap that up, I'll probably start playing Jack Jeanne! Aside from that, there aren't any other games I'm particularly looking forward to yet.
