I like to take it easy when it comes to game completion in general simply because I'm just doing this for fun, but when it comes to story, I have the need to see every single bit of story the game has to offer to me, so I definitely tend to 100% visual novels. The only time I wouldn't do that is...

My setting adjustments are pretty similar to what a lot of people mentioned here! :D Typically I'll change the text speed to instant, and I'll lower the BGM and SFX while having the voices at maximum volume.

The boring and predictable option (aka what's closest to what I am IRL) would be the MC's gay friend, I suppose. The much funnier option to me would be taking this the isekai route and I get reincarnated into the MC's dad because of how much I tend to joke about being an old man at heart on a...

There was another thread about parody games I remember posting in, so this might end up parroting what I said on there TBH, but I think the fact the cockroach game came out so recently and blew up is a good occasion for me to yap further. I'll say it: I played the cockroach game. All of it. Got...

I'm also part of the motion sickness gang here. I can't even look at my phone for too long if I'm in a bus or the subway, so playing games is kind of a lost cause on my end unfortunately. It'd help me get through so many games though...

I can't listen to anything other than the game I'm playing or else I get super distracted. I can rarely think of times when I found the soundtrack of a game grating to the point of wanting to turn off the music, though at some points I was pretty close (the most recent example I can think of is...

I've definitely had delusions of grandeur about making a "big thing" and visual novels have definitely been part of those delusions, though my projects were more self-indulgent derivative edgy BL stuff than otome stuff. Still, toying around with stuff like Renpy is fun!

My god, asking a translator to translate a game's script with no visual context at all is like asking a completely blind man to describe you a painting, I hate how companies just do that with their contractors and expect them to deliver a quality translation when they're working with half of the...

Don't worry, I haven't been able to check the forum in a hot minute so I'm also replying a bit late haha Thank you for providing examples! Honestly, onomatopeias are some of the hardest things to translate in my opinion considering Japanese loves using them and some languages aren't that...

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...
