What would make you decide to make a purchase?

As i don't have much extra money mostly the price and whether i'll like the game enough to replay it. It makes the chances higher if the game has an element of voice acting or great art.
 
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 more important. But then again, if I listened to my brain, I'd be spending no money on hobbies and I'd feel miserable, so...

As for what makes me buy something when it's within my budget, I'd say it has to do with the art and the vibes I get from the story or setting. If I think the story will sound interesting and I like the look of the art, then hell yeah, I'll drop some money on it. If I feel off about something, though, I'll hold off on my money.
 
For me, the production team comes first! The writer and director are super important to me. If a game is made by the same team behind another game I really enjoyed, I'm way more likely to buy it.
Next would be the art style. To be completely honest... no matter how amazing the story is, if the art isn't really my taste, I just can't get fully immersed in it. So the artwork definitely plays a huge role in my decision.
Lastly, maybe whether it's on sale or not? Haha.
 
First of all, I look at the art style before anything else. The art needs to be beautiful for me to want to buy the game.
Secondly, I look at the story!
If it's too expensive, there are times when I wait for a sale to buy it.
 
For CDs I try to wait for what is on sale, but other than that I try to spend what little money I have on my fave VAs or content that aligns with my interests. Other than one with an eggplant in a dude's butt. Ngl bought that one just cause they made me laugh.
 
For CD, it's the VA and the Brand/Circle.
For Otome games, it's the artstyle, characters design, also the protagonist design is very important to me.
 
For me, the story is always the most important factor. A beautiful art style might catch my attention at first, but it's the plot that ultimately determines whether I buy a game or not.
 
My decision would be based purely on reviews from otome game reviewers, such as Otome Kitten. I would read their articles beforehand and evaluate the overall criticism, the pros and cons, and other aspects of the game.. The final rating would also matter since from what I've noticed, the scores do often reflect the game's quality quite accurately ! The price is another important factor. Waiting for a game to go on sale would be my top top priority before making that purchase !
 
I always play games by myself first, checking the plot content and whether the character style attracts me. Sometimes when I come across games that affect my brainwaves, I would buy their CDs, badges, standing cards, and so on.

When I come across otome games that I really like, I will play them many times and directly purchase game cartridges for collection.
