How much time do you spend on a single otome game?

[yueop]

I don't set a specific time limit when I play; instead, I choose the character I want to pursue first before starting!
I don't aim for a 100% completion; I tend to only play through the routes of the characters I actually like!

Usually it all depends on whether the game grabs me right from the start. Plus I rarely play through otome game from start to finish; I usually have my sights set on a few specific characters that I focus on (unless there's some soft lock) and once I'm done with their routes I move on to something else entirely~

The games I like, I'll come back to them again and again over time. But the ones I don't enjoy? I can barely last ten or fifteen minutes before wanting to quit.

If I get the time off I can finsh one in 3-4 days but realistically it takes me about 2-3 weeks to beat one(cause im just so busy)

How much time do you spend on a single otome game? Also, how do you find the time to play otome games?
There are so many games I want to play, but I just don't have enough time. How about you all?
Please let me know if there are any strategies you use to make time.

Hrmm during holidays id say a week or so? But during workdays...man...like a month plus

You gotta be a in a certain mood for otome alas - but one tactic that helped me is making sure I play in the laziest way possible (laying down in bed) with some snacks and a drink. Food is my greatest incentive...

it's about 20-30days for me to clear a japanese otome game. I played almost everyday for 1-2hours with total clear time 50-70h. I think im pretty slow because i heard every lines and usually use auto mode :(

The playtime of my otome game depends on how fun it is.

I usually play for about one to three hours a day. When I'm really eager to see what happens next, I sometimes even cut into my sleep time to keep playing. There are also times when I'm just not in the mood to play, and when that happens, I take a break until I feel like picking it up again.

It's hard to say and I don't really keep track of how long it takes. I just play when I have time and I'm in the mood to. It also depends on how long the game is, some games are just longer than others, and how invested I am. Sometimes it takes me a long time if keeping putting it off until later or it doesn't interest me enough to keep going. There are also times when I want to take a break and focus on something else. But If I'm really invested in the game, I complete it much faster. I like to read at my own pace and take my time so I think the time spent for me is probably much longer compared to others.

It depends on the game. For example Olympia soiree took me +80 hours to finish. I usually play in my rest times on weekends. You could also play shorter games if you don't have enough time for a long otome.

It REALLY depends on the type of game. Some are statraisers like TMGS and can take me less than two days (sometimes one) to finish a route, if using a guide, and it's the type of game where skipping is pretty widely used on replaying so the time is cut down further on future routes. (o゜▽゜)o☆

If it's a really story heavy game, sometimes I space it out over a few days just to settle into the story further than just zooming through.

I also get fatigued from playing otome especially when it's very monotomous or overdone storylines so my time slows to a trickle, if not fully stops. (ˉ▽ˉ；)...

I'm an avid criminal of not finishing a game because it's not the right "time" for myself to enjoy it. Bad moods, certain times of the year, there's multitude of reasons that a game one person finishes within a day can take others a lifetime, haha. (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧
