Personally, if I ever come across non-voiced VNs, I'd rather read book with illustrations each page LOL (particularly Phantom of the Opera Illustrated classic if I really need that 'imagining guide' at least I'd know I'm on the right track). But then again, I would also see myself listening to...
im having ptsd reading this as reminder to myself with the games I've abandoned LMFAOOOOO (i badly need to continue them, but dang! the length is tedious)
hmm... probably a guy. BUT! I really did enjoy hakuoki and hiiro no kakera's opening; they slap as heck, a banger even, I must say. So far, I've liked women sing so far, but I'd really prefer it if it's a guy singing (makes it even more romantic lol) like: Piofiore and Cafe Enchante's ending...
Frankly, I feel guilty when I realize "Pretty Privilege" functions in this common situation LMFAO bcs believe me whenever I encounter villains, I'd always wish them to be erased from the franchise that badddd. The only thing that usually saves them is their privilege "face card" goodness
The latter. I only play personal doted routes and I wouldn't like to be forced playing routes that I'm not even intrigued bcs thats TORTUROUS asfff. Based on exp, I wouldn't even have had the energy to continue reading and just skim hoping it will end soon.
bruh, so far everything I've played were all tragic. EVEN A STEAM PUNK 'Code:Realize' BAITED ME WITH CUTESY VIBES. It's just a pattern I heavily observed so far, every single meta otomes out there are tragic asf.
PS; everything I've played tragically: Hakuoki Series (yeah..first on the list)...
well, whenever my heart craves kyun~! kyun~! That's an honest genuine answer btw. Although, I don't really understand nor speak Jp, I just listen to favorite VAs then just basing from their delivery, I'd just imagine whatever scene I want LMFAOOOOOOO
dang, when I first saw the word blush, a certain LI already comes to mind--Ignis of Cafe Enchante lol. He became my open door in tsundere world. He's just so cute and funny lol ><
gacha = milking barn
lets be for real, I'm among the global players. pattern is already foreseen; local otomes become global for a short while, then it won't be long until they shut down. I'm so tireddd lmao (A3, Mr. Love and many more)
same with Mystic Messenger! though quite far from your path. When I was young, I had adopted most of their characters' typing habits (text emojis are pretty common, but not really adopted when it comes to exchanging messages online) bcs i do find it adorable LMFAOOOO. btw goodluck with...
FINALLY, a good question. Romance, and it's not even close.
I alr grew out of visual novels as a genre long time ago. The only reason I keep coming back to them is because all roads lead to otome visual novels whenever I'm seeking good dating simulators--or even a particular LIs I'm interested...
both! albeit I lean more towards digital these days. It's just more convenient, and the discounts are hard to pass up lol (increased text size for emphasis).
but ofc I understand the appeal of having physical copies. There's something really satisfyng abt seeing your games in the flesh. I guess...
No, and I don't think I will in the future LOL. I can visualize myself locking in with a certain fave LI in someone else's route as a side character and I'd look at them like this:
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
hmmm... I'm definitely the type to juggle multiple otome games nowadays. I've realized I don't enjoy forcing myself through routes/Ls I'm just not really interested in. So like, I'd just abandon the whole game altogether after going through personal interests (dang i sound cruel lol).
that's...
Souji Okita from Hakuoki. Ik he's a fan favorite (bcs he's one of the og), but his route just wasn't for me--like I truly hated it. it felt like I was constantly chasing after him while he's focused on his own goals, which is completely understandable given his own circumstances. Still, bruh, as...
out of frustration? once (odd ik). I was pursuing Souji Okita's route and he just wont stop chasing after Kondou (their leader) and obviously MC is after Okita (basically form a triangle atp). The thing is it's just Okita's stubbornness that pisses me off--like i think he prefers Kondou's dihh...
MYSTIC MESSENGER, without a doubt. It was my first otome game back in 2016,so it pretty much became the standard I unconsciously compared every other game to. Real-time chats, calls, and the way it made you feel like you were literally part of the story were such a unique experience, it...
I'm pretty neutral on poster boys, but I do hold them to a higher standard (i believe most ppl do as well). They're literally the face of the game, so I expect their route to be among the strongest. When the poster boy ends up being the most underwhelming route, it just feels like wasted...
