Play the game plugged into a TV and stand there admiring their few scenes to get the full immersion if really can't play them. Think this is why I was pleasantly surprised ended up on "side characters" mini routes in Birushana and Sympathy Kiss when going in blind about the mini routes.

Annoying. I still do very occasionally (such as when have enough play points to redeem) mainly for the monthly or clothing/skin, but it honestly takes up too much time and commitment. Tried redownloading a few, but then it became a chore... and now all that money is gone! Rather save to buy a...

More angst and drama? Sign me up, especially a well written one. All for it in FICTION.

In general I'm kind of neutral, if it's a well written character or we get a bit more backstory beyond an obviously annoying stereotype. If the character is there obviously stereotypical / caricature like, then I just get annoyed at the writers/producers LOL

I tend to go in blind and not know who the VAs are. However! If there's a voice I really like while playing, will definitely influence me to go for that character more just to hear more of their lines

Yesss another vote here for Wilders (honestly bummed about Amir's route) and also Ebon Light ( absolutely love the customizability, atmosphere, and characters... replayed EL so many times)

Omg I love all these memory trip and throwbacks!!! Honestly same. Pacthesis and Re Alistair amongst other games of that era. Time flies! One of my favorites was Knife of the Traitor... and now I want to replay those old games LOL

Yes. Big reason why I can't finish so many games or routes if they drag on without much happening. Great chance to switch to interactive fiction books / choice games and use imaginations or dabble in something else.

Think this is why I really enjoy the games with more personality influencing choices. It feels like your choices can help shape the character's reaction to some scenes. However, if the choice doesn't matter in the end except for a line or two, yet somehow also important for a route is...

Finally able to get a weekend to hermit and solely dissociate from reality. Binged Volontes (really liked how routes are relatively short compared to longer games, helps hold my attention!) and think the game ties up hints left in different routes relatively nicely. Finishing up some paths in...

I JINXED IT!!! Just picked up Sympathy Kiss again, and Tainaka in his own route certainly has some red-flag , lack of consent / respect of boundary comments that triggered me. Reminded me of toxic friends/people used to know since some lines were almost verbatim. For example, hugging the MC...

Glad I'm not the only one!!! That worry of things getting deleted on top and had to start moving the games over to a terabyte storage. It's enabling my inner data hoarder. Will I ever find the time to really sit down and play the huge backlog though?? Even the ones that seem interesting are...

Yoosung from mystic messenger. Only one I can really think of. With otome / visual novel games, love the option to force skip so it's usually me getting bored of a game itself rather than a character? Or if the route is too long and I just get lost in the sauce / play list / real life.

This is such a memory lane trip!! Probably around 10 to 12? I loved reading and happened upon interactive fiction books / games (hosted games, choice of.. etc) . Around the same time, also found out the burgeoning side of mobile apps' otome games such as voltage (when they all had individual...

Thanks for sharing your experiences! I overprepare for public transportation and end up over-stimulated because of my anxiety of missing stops, timing of transfer, awareness for safety and so many others... even sometimes seeing people when I'm not in the right mindset is stressful! Definitely...

Guide! Don't have time or energy to botch up playthroughs / endings if turns out branching choices was earlier in story or random "bad" ends or it turns out every choice counts. Few times no guides were used: there's a love catch system, allowance for more variable choices, or something along...

Depends on the game and if certain choices take me too much out of the game. For example, really liked sympathy kiss and lover pretend for having a bit more leeway in choosing responses. Whereas games that require a bit too much guides / walkthroughs to complete kind of takes me out? Or if I...

Just bookmarked scenes for the feels or great voice lines, otherwise rarely if at all

BL :') They've been niche, but the quality and stories hits. They often feel more unique, however this could be due to not having a lot to compare to (compared to the variety of otome games) and r18 tend to also cover darker subjects. I can often just sit back and appreciate watching people...

My attention span is honestly horrible and barely have time to really sit down to play. I rarely finish routes even for favorite/most interested characters; if the story drags too long and if characters I'm interested are route locked, but can't vibe with the other storyline... they've all been...
