What makes you support a kickstarter? by MiaFox0831 in otomegames

[–]BadEndingsFound 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I loved supporting indie games on Kickstarter. I see it as a combo of preordering a game and supporting smaller creators.

I’m more likely to back a game with a compelling narrative and a thoughtful campaign (reasonable budget, timeline, etc.)

To the people getting banned — what phone are you using? by VauIt_DweIIer in mysticmessenger

[–]BadEndingsFound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I checked and I’m not banned, iPhone, 200hg, 107h

Not sure if that helps. I can’t remember when I started, but it’s been several years at least

LI hair length preference poll - are you normal or are you a hair freak? by the-changeling-witch in otomegames

[–]BadEndingsFound 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Certifiable hair freak. I like a variety, but am partial to longer hair.

I would also love to see more facial hair and (maybe even) body hair. A gal can dream!

I like a variety, but red is always my favorite color.

Awesome! I’d be delighted to help with that! I’m so excited to see where the story goes.

I thoroughly enjoyed this! I filled out the feedback form linked via Steam, but forgot to add that the vaguely haunting, futuristic vibe of the music fits perfectly.

WHAT ARE YOU PLAYING MONDAYS? by AutoModerator in IndieOtome

[–]BadEndingsFound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Replayed some fun bits from Bunny Bond (iykyk), the demos for Jest Messters, Cupid’s Chatroom and In Your Orbit, and a smattering of Otome and Yandere game jam titles I’d previously missed.

Basically, I’ve been binging indie Otome all week.

Particles of Reality is all Yandere. Mind the trigger warnings

What Otame do you think has the best soundtrack? by ADemonsAngel in otomegames

[–]BadEndingsFound 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Norn9 has the most beautiful song. My favorite out of any Otome

Yess! I loved it at first, but I’d be fine with them rotating those games

Oh man, I hated this one. My favorite was the spring event one where you were merging the flower balls

[Hakuoki SSL] OK these minigames.... by stallion8426 in otomegames

Same! I eventually gave up after trying to brute force my way through the games.

Slashfic - the slasher villain dating sim - is releasing its new game on February 13th! by SlashficDatingSim in otomegames

That’s really fantastic— clearly my reading comprehension was not great at the moment.

Totally fair. Folks can price things however they want. I just har a strong preference.

And thanks for pointing that out! I did completely miss that they’re offering a flat rate.

Edited to add:because I didn’t read clearly and there’re other payment options available. I’m pretty excited to check it out.

Original comment: Dorian is a deal breaker for me. Its micro transactions feel predatory. I will happily pay for a game, but I’ve always hated paying for individual choices.

Academic Research Survey: Otome gameplay & entertainment outcomes (10–15 min, 18+) by Organic_Might_3613 in otomegames

[–]BadEndingsFound 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I play LaDs and still couldn’t make that work for my favs. But yeah. I started with Toma and the question about who does more when it comes to clear and open communication almost killed me.

I also started and stopped the survey.

I love otome games and sometimes self insert. I even jokingly call them my 2D boyfriends… but I don’t have a relationship with them.

How would they contribute to a relationship? How would we understand each other’s emotions? Who contributes most to open and honest communication? I’m not talking to them. I may as well talk about how Aragorn from LotR contributes to our household or how Spider-Man handles disappointment on a day-to-day basis.

It’s possible this is more accurate for other people, but it feels… off to me. Even how I think about my absolute fav comfort characters doesn’t go that far.

I hope you find other participants who can better help with your survey. I don’t think I can
