@linikani_avpz @schizohealer guy is looking at the censored version hardly anyone is playing, most revenue is coming from the 18+ erolabs version (currently 2nd most popular online game there)

[Blair Fujin 🏳️‍⚧️ @BlairFujin]

@PengtotaP space you're in
western indie space being most lax about it (otome jam on itch accepts games with at least a female mc and at least one male mc) and chinese gacha space being most strict about it being fxm only, with jp market being somewhere in between

[Blair Fujin 🏳️‍⚧️ @BlairFujin]

@PengtotaP no, that's joseimuke media, a broader term, while otome games are mostly understood to be romance focused games (usually visual novels) targeting fem audience with female mc and (mostly male) love interests
how strict the definition is about characters' gender depends on what+

@tatanooki that's why I hate when the one every few months "I wish I could play this as a guy" comment appears under one of that game's posts and "go play nukani" responses appear
that's not what they're looking for

[Blair Fujin 🏳️‍⚧️ @BlairFujin]

@ialiciashovel alright so if you just want some bite-sized romance stories with darker themes, give it a try

[Blair Fujin 🏳️‍⚧️ @BlairFujin]

@ialiciashovel get unlocked, they refresh at rate of like 5 per day, of course, you can buy more through the cash shop :P or get through events
-it's engine seems pretty dated and game felt quite laggy on a device that runs more demanding looking games with no isse

but, writing is pretty +

@D_Dropscythe as some working in gamedev and currently also screaming at their unity project, I get you, pio...

@JakesLixer72171 @poppingrainbows @itsda25theaster homophobic background not because of what media they engage with
fujoshi is just a female bl fan, that's it, so yeah, there will be some chill people just minding their business, some queer people looking for representation, some allies and some unhinged weirdos

[Blair Fujin 🏳️‍⚧️ @BlairFujin]

@JakesLixer72171 @poppingrainbows @itsda25theaster yeah, multiple, they just like reading/drawing gay shit
are there some that are weird? sure
are there ones being weird about irl gay men - yeah but hopefully those are just teens who will grow out of this
and are there homophobic ones? but it's usually cause they come from +

@JakesLixer72171 @poppingrainbows @itsda25theaster fujoshi = fetishiser comes from tumblr terfs who would equal gay trans men with straight fujoshis and then spout nonsense about protecting "real" gay men from evil fetishisers and then tumblr kids run with it and eventually brought it over to other sites during tumblr porn ban

@JakesLixer72171 @poppingrainbows @itsda25theaster "rotten" as in spoiled, unfit for marriage
fujoshi started as an insult jp incels came up cause they were butthurt that girls were reading about their shonen protags kissing each other instead of learning how to be good, obedient wives for them
jp fujos then reclaimed the term

@cynn_mika_owo get a single guy from a limited banner with like 5? 10? minutes worth of story attached to him

[Blair Fujin 🏳️‍⚧️ @BlairFujin]

@cynn_mika_owo if you want story and not just constant attacks on your wallet, you have to leave the live service free to download gacha market
there's summer sale both on steam and itch now (I think on switch too...), you can get yourself multiple 20+ hours otome games for what it'd cost to+

[Blair Fujin 🏳️‍⚧️ @BlairFujin]

@sunisapoet nah, while he wasn't made for otome audience, what mr werewolf ceo was made for is booktok audience instead :P

@vervian772 @kuuvira__ as a white person from the part of the world hoyo went for with this region: no... it's hella rare to see anyone going out half naked when there's so much snow outside and everyone else would assume that they're nuts

[Blair Fujin 🏳️‍⚧️ @BlairFujin]

@iKaito_1 will cause people interested in those characters to slowly drop the game that treats them like a second class citizen at best

[Blair Fujin 🏳️‍⚧️ @BlairFujin]

@iKaito_1 if a gacha game gives you a banner with a character you're into like twice a year, then whenever it does come out, you'll have saved up more than enough to pull for them without needing to go to the cash shop for a top-up
plus with long stretches of nothing to get excited for+
