Cloth physics are really kicking my ass. Anyways, I've been a Teenage Exocolonist several times in the past few weeks. It was fun sometimes, it was tough sometimes, but it was gorgeous, always.
(I Was a Teenage Exocolonist is a game that you should play! It's fun! (It's painful))
finished my first major endings of little goody two shoes and and
when the wwhen the girls and they in lomve and the bad ending then thebgood ending and then and thenhow
people have got to learn the difference between I didnt like it and It was bad
random question are you the type that likes to get into everything unspoiled and does not want any spoilers at all or are u fine with tiny ones (remembered the entire mechanic in tmgs that is very difficult to figure out without knowing it exists and is torn on whether or not to tell u what it is)
i don't mind little spoilers! especially if it helps with gameplay lol~
typically the only things where it's really important to me to go in completely blind with no spoilers are mystery games, but even then i can still enjoy things with some plot spoilers.
This might be an unpopular option but even as an aroace I love valentine's day.
I love flowers and seeing them everywhere brings me joy, all the nice pink and red decorations are cute, and who doesn't like chocolate?
Sure, the hyper consumer capitalistic side of it sucks. But if couples are happy, good for them.
Also, is a nice time to remind myself that as an aro person I love myself and I'm not less for not needing / wanting a romantic relationship
And this might be a bit harsh but being bitter about being single or about other people being happy in a relationship while you are not seems kinda immature.
I get it if it comes from other aros since society tells us repeatedly that romantic love is the most important thing there is and we are kinda tired of that lie but when the allos complain about valentine's just because they are single makes me more mad than what I would like to admit
also this might be a little late but i read your thing on being an aromatic playing dating sims and ended up nodding and going "so true" the entire time. like yeah holy shit that's EXACTLY how i feel! my favourite otome games are those with a protag with her own personality, because the appeal is watching over the couple from a third party perspective, not trying to be the protag.
(this is how they ended up with like 30 ocs for the tokimeki memorial girls side series)
omg yeah! I'm glad to hear you can relate lol. I love love love a protag with a well-established personality <3 -- My personal top picks have got to be Katarina Hamefura & Teuta Bustafellows. It's fun to see how the mc's personality meshes with the different LI, and I like picking out a "best match" of each game based on chemistry with the heroine. :)
I think that's why I tend to struggle to get into some of the indie titles that have completely customizable mcs lol. It's a different style to get used to.
Though!! I did play a route of Killer Chat after you mentioned it yesterday! (Ronin's route - it felt like a natural 1st pick story-wise lol) And I really appreciate that the game has a default name because that's always my biggest struggle when making up an oc protag lol. I liked customizing Maya's sprite and playing as them because I do feel like their dedication to their writing and enthusiasm for lying about being a serial killer are pretty good defining character traits. I'll probably change her a little bit with each route I play lol. It's a great game, thanks for reminding me about it!!
Gonna be so real if a 12 year old traced my art and put it on their school binder I would be so fucking honored
yayyyyyy I'm so glad i could help!!! :))
good luck & happy writing!! it already sounds amazing!
Am I the only one who thought Rozy was a girl based on the trailer? People were like "oh Rozy has a secret identity" and I was like yeah I bet he's secretly a girl called Rosie and is pretending to be a boy because sexism. Then I find out that no, Rozy is not a girl, and not only that but there are no Yuri routes at all.
I'm Wren! I like otome games, rpgs, and mysteries! Feel free to reach out, as I'd love to chat! :)
