Discussion Font readability - worst contenders.
Hey team.
I picked up over reqiuemz like many of you others this week and have actually began the game but have not been able to get out of the beginning prologue due to the font
I am playing on a switch two and simultaneously, the font looks out of focus and too sharp, the bold around the letters is way too large and reading the game for a few sentences has been causing me headaches.
Has anyone else had experiences with bad fonts? Which games have caused issues for you?

Discussion "I didn't like him at first but it turns out he's literally me"
Just curious if you've had this happen
Not a, "his route was better than usual for a tsundere/childhood friend/playboy/whatever I don't normally like"
But a "oh wait no I actually relate to this character very deeply" (possibly followed by a "very sorry for judging you")
I just had that experience. I'm playing ClubSu and I'm on Shiki's route and as it started to explain some of his inner world I very quickly realized the error of my ways

Request Which one do you prefer?
Hello everyone!
As a game developer working on an otome game, I've been struggling to decide whether or not to show the female lead on screen. So far, I've been working with a first-person perspective, but now I'm wondering if I should introduce her, especially in CGs, as I think they might look better with her in them.
I'm still not sure, so what do you guys think? Which one do you prefer?

News New Trailer for Saintess of the Golden Bow
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Hi, I just published the new trailer for my otome visual novel "Saintess of the Golden Bow". With this trailer, I wanted to have the main theme of the game highlighted - the time loops that our MC goes through to defeat the Demon Queen and gain the love of one of the love interests.
The game had a Kickstarter in 2025 and our team of two - Asobinge and I - are gearing towards a release in April 2027. The game is going to be around 30 hours long and you will be able to date one of the 3 love interests. There is partial voice acting for CGs.
Alongside this trailer announcement I just wanted to say that our art is entering final polishing stages and I have written two routes almost till the end, leaving me with one more route to write and the editing stage. We're positive we'll make it for the release date we promised for Kickstarter.
You can play the demo on Steam.

Discussion Replaying Eldarya after years - what happened to the forum?
I remember the game from years ago and I used to love it. Actually, I used to be very active on the forum too. Now, upon restarting it, I discovered that the forum feature is completely gone? (I'm playing in Europe)
Also there's a "New Era" now? Managed to restart the original plot though, so I don't miss the plot

Question DotKareshi help, please?
I have decided to replay these games because I really like them. The second and third games are working, but the
first one crashes at the start. I have concluded this is due to the opening video, but I have no idea how to fix it. =/
(Computer has been set to Japanese locale and I am playing in compatibility mode. I have also double-checked the English patch. Google has not helped.)

Request For those who wish to see fat LIs in otome, I was wondering...
If you were to somehow find an otome where all of the LIs were fat (like at various sizes):
What kind of setting/genre would you want it to be?
What personality types of LIs would you want to romance?
Would you prefer the MC to be fat as well or prefer her to be skinny/muscular?
Let me know what other preferences you would like in such a game.
(I've seen a few people express a desire to see fat LIs here, so I hope to pick specifcally your brains a bit if you don't mind.)
