I posted on c/otomegames how I've finally managed to get a good ending (and unlock the secret route) in Vampire Knight DS!

Also, in order to support a very ambitious title like this, I gifted Hundred Line to a streamer friend and now look forward to watching them play it (since I won't have the time to play through the entire thing myself)

It's pretty out there for an otome since you're literally being held prisoner by a stalker.

All the characters use Live2D sprites and the cinematography and UI design is absolutely fantastic. There are some things I didn't even know you could do in Live2D.

Just wish the english translation was a little better^^;

(definitely only try this if you don't mind stuff like body horror, needles and very heavy use of glitchy graphical effects, among other things. the body horror can be censored in the settings, though!)

AFAIK the demo is time limited for the otome games celebration, so if you wanna try it be quick

It's by a small team of indie devs from germany. I had the chance to attend a talk by the devs about its development and it looks really cool :D It's like only 6โ‚ฌ as well atm

Found this via their Mastodon account (@[email protected])

Here's their introduction post:

Time for a little #introduction!

We're the Save and Load Club, a book club community centered around Visual Novels.

We pick something from a list of member suggestions, vote on what to read and then, while reading, discuss the VN together!

This account will be used to announce new sessions or other significant news. You can also always ask questions about the site.

A more detailed rundown on what this is and how it works can be found on our forums with the link below. https://saveandload.club/t/welcome-to-save-and-load-club/5

There's a new tournament/poll Tumblr blog for determining the VN of all time. It's probably going to have a tournament structure and match VNs against each other, like similar blogs. Feel free to submit VNs!

we discussed this over in [email protected] back when it was initially announced! The fandom seems to be delighted about this feature, but I'm personally more concerned about the data privacy aspect of it all...the author is absolutely right to look at this whole thing with scepticism

I find it a little far-fetched to solely link the popularity of otome games to some kind of frustration with modern dating, though. Romance games (and romance in games, e.g. Baldur's Gate 3 or Mass Effect) offer a lot of fun in-and-of themselves.

I agree 100%, both look super ugly

As an alternative, there are tons of gamepad icons on freepik like this one that could be used as long as theres an attribution link in the community description.

Also here's a quick collage I screenshotted from steamdb, feel free to use it if there aren't any better ones by others:

We've had this exact conversation in this community two months ago already, in case you want to back read the comments from back then. Nothing significant has changed

To paraphrase my opinion from back then:

  • Easier onboarding, and a familiar, easier UX
  • customizable feeds you can subscribe to + starterpacks instantly give you full timelines and people to follow (and followers, if you're in many starter packs)
  • better discoverability, and therefore higher engagement
  • stacking moderation and excellent security features (e.g. detachable quote boosts, "the nuclear block")
  • many users who tried Mastodon first had bad experiences with "HOA"-like behavior and over-enthusiastic mods

turkish flat bread filled with spiced minced meat and/or cheese and sprinkled with sesame. The pide we make have a slightly crunchy and sweet crust, are very fluffy, and taste overall amazing

I have already reported this community to the tchncs instance admins and they're looking into it. Got a response like an hour ago
