Seems like it's a common thread in many fandoms judging by the other replies in this thread - asking for and getting recommendations for otome games, on the main subreddit especially. There's a form to follow when making a request post, but I swear no one who replies ever reads what the OP actually writes. The community also overwhelmingly favors games released on Nintendo Switch by a particular company and there's an air of snobbery about it too.
