SieghartXx Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 Well... I haven't played a lot of otome, just a few ones and flash-based, but I want to try them out (even when I hate inverse harems... ;A;). So, can anyone recommend me any? It would be great if it didn't have a lot of jackasses (like, the overly cliché player hero who sleeps with everyone but no one cares and still love him, and the heroine hast to fall in love with him, out of all people D:! And if it does have someone like that, I would like it if you can pass that route xD) Thanks for reading >-< Quote
daniel Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 Girlish Love Revolution was fun - it's more like a dating sim where you have to level up your character than a standard VN though. It was also my first Otome game, and not a bad introduction to them. I'd love to hear some recommendations from others too! Quote
Flutterz Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 Only one I can tell recommend you is Always Remember Me, and not because I played it but because I saw a hilarious LP of it. xD Quote
Kaede Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 My first otome VN was Frozen Essence. I really enjoyed it for a first. It doesn't have voices though. Quote
Araina Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 Well... I like A Troll's Fairy Tale, Nachtigal and Pyrite Heart (they're free games but very pro). It actually depends on your taste as well... do you like Jap games, or English ones, or free/commercial or mystery, slice of life...etc Quote
SieghartXx Posted December 27, 2013 Author Posted December 27, 2013 Well, I'm more of the Japanese ones, but westerns aren't bad either. As for genres... Romance, happy endings, no cheating and stuff like that. That's why I don't like harems, as they tend to waver the heroine's feelings towards more than one character ;u; I'll search the ones that have been recommended, thank you guys! Quote
Cherry Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 whaaat, otoge thread and nobody says second reprooo? here, this one is maybe the only engl otoge that i like xD (starry sky in spring was so boring for me) i really like it, u should give it a try http://vndb.org/v3319 There are bunch of many cool jap. otoges i could give u a list full of them, but cant really say anything to them since i only play tled vns.

Kanpachi Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 Starry Sky in Spring is the only otome game I've really liked, try it (if you can get it to run). http://vndb.org/v2021  There's also a parody otome game called Prince of Nigeria that was pretty entertaining. http://vndb.org/v12192 Quote
Hazel-Bun Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 I'd also add Dandelion and Nameless from the company Cheritz. More so Nameless but that's just a personal preference. They're also the NTT Solmare series and Volatge games among many others on IOS and Android. On the western side, I loved/liked That Cheap and Sacred Thing, re:alistair (sakevisual's also coming out with a new game that looks good called Backstage Pass) and a2. There's much more but their names escape at the moment haha. Quote
SieghartXx Posted December 27, 2013 Author Posted December 27, 2013 Just in case, I can't read Japanese, so only translated ones (just in case~ xD) so keep them coming >-< I took a look at Starry Sky and the tag for love triangle kinda put me off ;A; Second Reproduction kinda scares me, must be the cover image xDD I'll take a look at the other ones later >-< Any of you recommends Alice no Kuni? Quote
Araina Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 Well, Alice no Kuni is famous as well, I've never tried it though (Japanese barrier...) Second Reproduction isn't that scary though, if you're more of a Jap otome gamer you should really give it a try (aaaaaand if you want happy ends, I'd recommend a walkthrough 'cuz the bad ends are...pretty bad) xD Oh, Yo-jin-bo is a good one for me, it's originally Jap game that's been translated to Eng \m/ Quote

(samurai are always cool). And... I'll give it a try to Second Reproduction... But it scares me anyway ;A; Thanks for the recommendations >O< Quote
