If there is recommended route order, I always follow it. Then again, I always use a walkthrough to make sure I unlock all the content. They usually list the order in which to play the routes.
As someone who has been interacting with chatbots almost every day for 3 years now, I can confidently say that chatbots will never replace otome games or any other games. It's just a different experience.
Yes, you can make sprites for a bot and enable TTS, you can create a tracker that tracks...
I'm neutral about it. Then again, there really aren't many otome games that feature real incest. Usually, it's stepbrothers or just close friends who view the main character as a sister. So I can't take it seriously.
I can "forgive" AI content in indie projects because sometimes it's the only way for someone to create their own game and realize their idea. But I can't be so lenient toward companies that allow AI slop in their projects. Like The Red Bell's Lament (Voltage) with their lazy AI slop on some...
I absolutely agree, it looks weird. I just find it uncomfortable to see an underage girl and an older man together in otome.
But I suppose it's just one of those "character types." Many otome feature both a "younger guy" and an "older guy" types.
In newer otome, a large age difference is less...
Hmmm... I really liked Gunjou no Yuki. It was sweet, cozy and interesting. Also art style is pretty.
Also Eikoku Tantei Mysteria is good. But I feel like it didn't get enough attention. And it's already been removed from Steam... what... 😭
It was over 10 years ago, I think... An online friend of mine played The Second Reproduction and recommended it to me. I started playing without even knowing what an otome game was or that there were different routes. So I ended up on the Gardis route and was really upset that I couldn't be with...
Usually I never read reviews before and after playing any game. Because I'm easily influenced. If the review is negative, I start believing the game is bad and ultimately don't play it. If the review is positive, I start believing the game is a masterpiece, so I have inflated expectations that...
No. Most otome anime adaptations are either simply bad or serve as advertisements for the VN. Therefore, the events are too rushed, the plot is shortened and rewritten. Also, since these adaptations usually don't have big budgets, the animation and graphics aren't very good...
I've encountered...
It doesn't matter to me whether a game has voice acting. I know several good VNs that don't. So, for me, the most important thing is that the story is interesting and leaves a strong impression. Besides, I'm already "tired" of some VAs and sometimes turn off the voice acting for their characters lol
