Do you prefer plot-heavy otome or romance-focused ones

[osanajimimi]

I know some people prefer story-driven games over romance. Personally, I prefer a 50/50 balance. Too much focus on one side usually makes the other feel lacking.

I changed the question because I accidentally posted a duplicate, and I don't know how to delete it :P

I prefer heavy-plots combined with romance, 50/50 too; in fact, my favorite games like UN:Logical, OverRequiemZ, CxM, and Bustafellows aren't characterized by having a lot of romance, but they do keep you hooked at all times, keep you on edge, and teach you to appreciate romantic moments more.

Depends on my mood tbh hahah like if I have enough time to sit down and read properly? Story-driven for sure.

But if I just wanna wind down and relax and don't wanna think too hard over some story plots, I'll just pick romance-based otome games.

I like all those games, so we must have the same taste

I apply that when I'm really tired of plot-driven stories and still want to enjoy an otome at the moment. Though i prefer a 50/50 balance between both aspects, a romance-focused game is perfect when I just want to relax

Yeah i also prefer a balance between the two. Too much story can be boring overtime and too much romance with no proper plot is very weak and can become silly or sickening in my opinion.

I also prefer a 50/50 balance, with maybe a little bit more plot than romance. If it is to much romance, without enough plot, I cant really enjoy the romance as much and it actually doesnt feel as romantic to me. Same the other way around. If it is too much plot and not enough romance, I will popably still enjoy the plot (if the Plot is good), but still feel a little bit unsatisfied at the End and wish for more romance. Finding the right balance is important.
