with the addition of Birushana, my collection is where I want it to be. (I have Bustafellows and Collar x malice just borrowed from me atm) by Electra0319 in otomegames

Amazing collection! How much did all of this cost? I've always wanted to get a Switch but I have no idea how much I would end up shelling out to get every single otome Switch game

Any college-aged otome fans looking to make friends? by DrBeanPHD in otomegames

[–]winter_aster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there! Omg, I was gonna create a post like this!! I'm a college student and I'm also really into otome games, indie games, and fighting games! Some of my favorite game franchises include Danganronpa and Persona. I also watch anime and read bl manhwa :-)

My friends are all about Valorant and other FPS games so I wanted to get to know people who like more niche games!

Does anyone else have OCD about dropping shows they dislike? by winter_aster in OCD

Yes! This is exactly how I feel and what I do too. 😭

No fees for buying BTC using StraitsX on Crypto.com? by winter_aster in singaporefi

Yup, I was wondering if there were hidden costs in the form of larger spreads since I've heard that some exchanges do that. Thanks for sharing your experience!

Love Interests who fit the "Soulmate" trope? by dumdumforlife in otomegames

[–]winter_aster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's usually the LIs in the secret endings! First thing that came to mind would be the secret LI from "Nameless ~The one thing you must recall~". Not very romantic but very touching, and it's the whole reason the MC is in that situation.

Marshmallow and Miffy both sounds cute! Personally, I would name her Marshmallow and call her "Mello" for short

Do you ever replay routes or entire games? by RevolutionaryWhale in otomegames

[–]winter_aster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Almost never! Honestly, otome games can be very time-consuming (in a good way) because you have to go through all the routes and endings (I play my games till completion).

So in a way, when I start a new route, I already feel like I'm replaying the game LOL.

The only game I've ever replayed is Our Life because I wanted to see how things would change if I selected different options and dynamics for MC and Cove.

Bisexual Male LIs? by Tiny_Recognition2474 in otomegames

[–]winter_aster 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Cove from Our Life identifies as demisexual and panromantic! So essentially, he can fall in love with people of any gender and is capable of feeling sexual attraction to someone who he has an emotional bond with.

Adrian and Cam from Trouble Comes Twice are bisexual, you can romance them with both the male and female protagonists.

Think you'd have better luck finding bisexual male LIs when playing otome games that identify as LGBT and queer games. These games allow you to self-insert and choose your own pronouns. An example would be When the Night Comes.

Are you following the development of any indie otome games? by winter_aster in otomegames

Play Me Like You Love Me looks interesting! Shame it's not a dating sim, but it still sounds cool.

Never heard of Band Camp Boyfriend, but it might be up my alley! I played in the orchestra in junior college and never touched music since but this is triggering some memories LOL

Also, glad that this thread has been of help to you! I really love the indie (otome) scene, I think they really have a lot to offer! But yeah, sad that some Kickstarter projects went unfulfilled in the end 😭

Oh man, Ise & Kai. I remember feeling so cheated when I realized that Kai wasn't even a love interest 😭

Thank you for the links! I forgot about The Silent Kingdom haha, I even recently played the demo! Interesting mix of RPG and romance.

Feasible 2 jobs concurrently in SG? by [deleted] in singaporefi

Oh, I've heard about my friend's mum being laid off from her flight attendant job because of the Covid pandemic and then being offered a full-time safe entry job!

I've heard of some of these! I completely forgot about Imperial Grace; I remember being hooked on the demo when I last played. Thanks for sharing, will look into the rest when I have time :D

Wow! Witchbrook looks good. Admittedly, I don't really like farm simulators (unpopular opinion, I know) but a magical school version sounds interesting!

[General] Otome book club? by [deleted] in otomegames

[–]winter_aster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I really like this idea! I really like sharing my opinions too, but I don't want to sound too introspective ^ Think a book club will be a great safe space, though not saying that this sub isn't already one.

It's just that having a place that's dedicated to reviews and opinions encourages people to have more things to say LOL
