Punished or forgiven? I'll take dateable;) I know the antagonist's role is, well, to be "the bad guy," but seriously, sometimes I'd like to have the option to choose the bad path and side with the antagonist. I understand that this doesn't always fit the storyline, but an alternative or...

I've never really thought about it, so I guess... no? Especially since sometimes I turn off all sounds except for the characters' voices (or at least turn down everything else so I can hear the voices more clearly).

On my PC, I have digital versions (I'm not sure if physical copies of otome games for PC are even still available—what I mean is that the game comes on a physical medium, not just as a code on Steam), and for consoles, I try to buy physical copies (unless I find a really good deal on the digital...

This doesn't just apply to otome games, but I tend to skim through reviews. With new games, I'm usually interested in the technical quality and whether there are any major bugs (so I know if I should play right away or wait for patches). I usually try not to know too much about a game so I can...

I've been playing games since I was 5 (OK, I didn't play myself, but I watched my cousin play ;), and now I'm a little older (...almost 40...), and I'm still playing games, watching anime, and reading manga. Maybe a little less than I used to, but I don't think that after all these years I'd...

To be honest, in that case, I'd actually prefer it if there were no voice acting at all. Personally, I have no problem with games that don't have voice acting and rely solely on text, although I know that many people don't like to read and prefer to listen. As for illustrations generated by...

I'm usually pretty balanced in my opinions, but seriously, I hate gacha games. Not just the otome versions, but the genre in general. Sure, I've played a few—I always thought I had strong willpower, but I still found myself grinding to get my favorite character (though I stuck to the rule of not...

Maybe not necessarily The Pervy One in the literal sense, but more like a flirt. Especially one who turns out to be a really nice guy.

Yeah, the characters in Amnesia have a really cool design! But, to be honest, I like the characters in Steam Prison. And no, it has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that I have a bit of a thing for military uniforms... :sneaky:

They can be fun... ... but they're usually pretty poorly made and mostly just annoy me. The worst part is when they're very repetitive and you can't skip them. For example, I like rhythm games, but only the simple ones, because I have a terrible sense of rhythm :(

It depends on how long ago I played the previous game. I usually remember the plot of whatever I've played, unless it was really boring. But in that case, I don't really feel the need to play the next one anyway :tongue:

Generally, I'm open to different art styles. I like it when a game looks nice, but sometimes I'll choose something with less polished graphics if it makes up for it with its characters or overall story. BUT, there's one case where I just can't bring myself to play it: big eyes in the style of...

Generally speaking, I don't like spoilers. But if I happen to come across one, it usually doesn't stop me from continuing to play or read. Every now and then, if I'm not sure which direction the plot is going, I prefer to read a spoiler so I'm mentally prepared for what's coming ;). Okay...

I think having 5 main characters and maybe 2 hidden routes is actually fine. It's hard to craft a good story spread across so many characters—unless the main route is the longest, and the individual characters' stories are just short (and short stories are usually unsatisfying...). And yeah, the...

I bought a Switch for Fire Emblem, Xenoblade, Pokémon, and otome games. Later, I sold the Switch to a friend and got the OLED model. Now I have a Switch 2. I play the Switch 2 on my TV, and I use the OLED mainly for otome games (because they look better on that screen) and smaller J-RPGs.
