When you play otome games, do you leave Love Catch on or off?

I leave it on (in case there's a pretty alert pop-up like flower blooming animation etc), even though I play with guides/walkthroughs so I don't really need it

In that case, have you ever considered playing with Love Catch turned off just once, or not following a guide? Just to see how far you could get on a route and see if you could avoid the bad endings?

Nope, I'm a completionist so I usually play through bad endings on purpose anyway (to get the CGs/story content). For me, it's a matter of efficiency, I follow the guides because it tells me the best time to save to achieve all the endings with minimal replay through stuff I've already read

usually turns it on and with guide when I'm busy and the game is long, but sometimes I turned it off to see which route I'll get when there are many love interest.

If the game has no bad endings and the common route just lead you to the route that has the highest affection, I will totally leave the love catch off on the first playthrough.

I'll turn on this feature to get a good ending, which will save me from having to consult guides so many times. I'm a bit of a perfectionist and hope that my choices are the best ones.

I leave it on. But I'm also a guide user, so I guess it wouldn't really matter either way. 😅 But sometimes the effects are pretty cute.

I let it be whatever the default is. If I like the game I will try to get all endings, which means I have to try different choices anyway

Oh, I see. Love Catch is usually already enabled. And do you play with guides or do you just choose the answers you want and see where it leads?

First playthrough I choose the answers I want regardless of the "love catch" result.
After that it depends. Sometimes I keep trying to find different endings on my own, sometimes I use guides. I prefer trying on my own because it feels more like playing a game, but having a job means I have less time to mess around in a game like that compared to when I was younger.

I keep it on cuz I like knowing when I've made the right choice LOL but only in a "Wow! So he liked that!" side-thought way (does that make sense?)

I play blind and make choices based on my own feelings so I kind of just disregard Love Catch (outside of the serotonin boost it gives me) unless I'm trying to get other endings

I have a funny story about this. I usually leave it on, but I don't let the affection point increase or decrease animation influence my response. I follow what I would normally answer until the end of my first route. That way, I naturally discover which character I would naturally develop affection for based on my answers. So, about the funny story, when I started playing QuinRose's games, I really liked their theme, but as far as I remember, none of his games have an affection point increase animation, especially the Heart no Kuni no Alice series. I must have spent three days (or more) trying to figure out how to get Peter's true ending on my own. I even remember writing down the choices on paper, checking if I answered right or wrong—it was a nightmare. The funny thing is that later, the other characters' routes got the true ending on the first try.

This story is reminding me of when I played TokiMemo for the first time and was trying to win Kazuki over without using a guide lol I stayed up several nights only to repeatedly find the church door closed. It took me a week but I finally managed to win him over XD

I leave it to know what answer was wrong, to click the wrong one - read two different line and get along with good answer. But I mainly looking at guides so it doesn't bothers me enough to switch it off.
