I'm referring to when a game that doesn't specify if the person is a man or woman, the LIs don't really feel fleshed out. It's like the devs are trying to pander to both TL and BLs. There are quite a few games meant for both men and women to play. I'd dare to say, there's more games like what I'm referring to than there are TL indie Western games.

Did I say it's wrong to be either of those things or attack you personally? No. I am only sharing my thoughts and gratitude. Well, technically also my opinion. Opinions are like arseholes, everyone has one. Doesn't mean you have to like mine or the smell.

I mean I think that’s just an overarching issue with self insert characters in general when they want to make a female lead or a male lead relatable for their audience they just leave as many things vague or blank as possible like not drawing their eyes etc so I do agree with that point


 but it doesn’t stem from gender it’s just a different approach to writing a main character for a game or show that someone can “immerse” themselves in which often does fall flat unfortunately but they could still make a fleshed out interesting main character with a strong personality that also has an option for different pronouns :3

I understand if they didn't label the game an Otome and left it alone as a VN. That's 100% completely understandable and I'd be the arsehole to hop on a soapbox whinging about two genders.

When I got into Otomes games, I was so fascinated by those who self-inserted. They get to see the game from a different perspective and likely discover things I've missed in each playthrough/route.

I apologise for how my comments may have came across. Not even two hours I put my foot in my mouth again, when talking to my dad. LOL.

I hope we both can enjoy the game! There's been some beautifully done doujin/indie(?) Yandere Otomes and BLs lately via Itichio. Did you ever play that one BL, it had 300+ votes on Reddit. The MC broke up with his Yandere boyfriend from childhood and there's even a prequel. 😻.

The art was so beautiful. I just dropped my vape in sink water, BRB going to cry and try drying it out. 😭. I'll come back with the name/link in five.
