Oh wow, I wasn't aware of Aksys' localizations being THAT bad, but them being so egregious it feels like an entirely different game would be a big no-no in my book for sure. I do feel like in general otome fans are dealt the short hand of the stick, considering the kind of horror stories you...

I have so many games to play that I can only play in one language and don't really have time to spare to replay in another, so I prioritize playing in the OG language whenever possible. That being said, as a translation nerd I LOVE hearing about localization choices so when my friends happen to...

I personally have a hard time with English voice acting for anime-related media and I think it's because most of the time, I tend to have gripes with the voice direction. Voice acting in OELVNs doesn't bother me as much, even if at times I will raise an eyebrow at how a few lines are delivered...

I'm usually so busy and slow with games that I need to have a counter that includes other titles at this point, to be honest. I consider finishing at least one game a year a win, though! Hell, at this point I guess I could even include demos since even those take me time to play through haha...

In my opinion, N+C VNs are much better than their anime adaptations (not that it has ever stopped me from watching the TNC anime multiple times... for some reason...) so honestly? I'd say go for it if DMMd's premise and lads interest you! I remember enjoying it personally, but it's also been a...

Parodies are enjoyable to me only if I can tell they're made in light-hearted fun, and not in a "LOL who cares about this cringe shit anyway?" type of way. Forgive me for how "thing, Japan" the rest of this post is gonna sound like, but I think that's why I tend to look at western "parody" sims...

I came here wanting to talk about the homopals scene in Lucky Dog 1 since that's the most recent example in my playing history I could think of but I was beat to it LMAO That game just has funny writing in general and translating homodachi as homopals is genius in my opinion.

I'm usually on a tight budget, so price is the main factor I have to consider when making purchases. I'm often so hesitant to make purchases even with what seems to be a "cheap" thing because my brain likes to metaphorically beat me up by telling me I should have saved my money for something...

I've never read otome fanfics, mostly because I focus mostly on fics for non-romance works and legit haven't thought of seeking out fics for stuff that does focus on romance. Even then, I'm not a frequent fic reader and I tend to feel frustrated because there's barely any content I'm interested...

I don't have enough experience with either to actually comment on which of these I prefer (I do have some titles on my backlog, though, but I'm far from getting to them), but by principle I wish there were more R18 otome games and SFW BL VNs. I just like a sense of balance with stuff in general...

I haven't experienced that with visual novels yet, but have definitely experienced it with reading in general, going through periods where I can bulldoze through a ton of books in a short amount of time, and then having times where it takes me months to finish reading a single book (currently...

I'm a hoarder at heart and my 5TB external drive has been my best friend for years at this point. I'm also really afraid of losing things I enjoyed or could have enjoyed if I'd gotten to them earlier, and the thought of having to deal with lost media is harrowing to me in general. So yeah, if...

I'm sorry for butting in the convo uninvited, but I'd like to say that your post made me bump up UruC in my long backlog list. I was already interested in it because I dig tokusatsu, but hearing it's also more on the dynamic and experimental side made me more intrigued! So, thank you :D...

Oh I definitely need to get to Kamisama Kari reading the messages here, I hadn't heard of it before and I'm intrigued (plus more content with older men makes me happy. I love ossans in my BL ❤️). Thanks for the recommendation! :D Thank you for the advice, I'll follow it and give Kanja S a try...

If it's huge plot reveals or the meat of a route, I generally don't like it. However, I think it's inevitable to avoid stuff like secret LIs or CG spoilers if you use social media. Sometimes I'll come across fanart of something based off a spoiler moment in a route of a game I'm playing and it...
