Is there a popular otome game that everyone loves but you just can't stand?

Any gacha game is a no for me e.g. Love and Deepspace, Tears of Themis, etc. I already wasn't a fan of mobage (apart from Mystic Messenger) because I prefer just paying once for something, but gacha games made everything even less consumer friendly.
Also as much as I love Otomate games for their high quality, I wish some of them weren't so plot/drama heavy. I wish there was more romance!! I haven't played very many (I've played Amnesia, Code: Realize, Hakuoki) so maybe there's some I'm missing out on that aren't like that. But I wish more localised otome games were more romance-heavy.

Do you only play on a specific platform/hardware? I enjoyed some of Otomate's older stuff on PSP (some are going to Switch like Glass Heart Princess but also enjoyed Confidential Money, Kaminaru Kimi to and Shirahana no Ori (main game + fandisc).

I play on pretty much everything! I emulate and also have a PS Vita/PSP/Switch.
Thank you for the recs, I'll check them out :)) What's the difference between Otomate's new and old stuff? What makes their old games better?

That's great! 🥰

Old as in only on older hardware (apologies for any confusion!) and I'm not familiar with newer releases (PS Vita onwards) 😅

Enkeltbillet's gameplay is interesting (similar to Hanayaka nari Waga Ichizoku) too!

P.S. Death Connection might be of interest (mafia, set in Italy? I think) and while I really enjoyed a friend's summaries of the routes - I couldn't get into it myself. Also on PSP and never ported to newer hardware :x

I honestly feel like the mafia portrayal in Piofiore: Fated Memories is way too childish. Most of the characters also didn't really make me understand why the heroine would fall for them. The routes are pretty repetitive too, and there's a lot of reused content. Personally, I found it so boring that I could barely stay awake. 😭

Amnesia, I think it was one of those games if made today would have a frown kinda thing, I dunno I find some of the MC boring
Sweet Fuse: WHY!?!?!?!? The hell is a teenager going out with like a 50 year old?!?!?1

I don't hate but I just could get into Love and Deepspace. I tried it and was like oh okay, then it asked about tracking my period and I was like.....this is a parasocial relationship I don't want.
 
So happy to see I'm not the only one who didn't like Bustafellows! I made myself play through all the routes because everyone liked the game so much but I didn't like any of them 😭
