Yeah I was thinking about that, too! We just need to decide what to use ๐ Maybe we could ask the community which characters they would like to see on our banner/avatar?
I'm not completely opposed to the idea, but I play a limited range of VNs (mainly mystery VNs and romance VNs aimed at women) despite sharing lots of news about all kinds of them^^ Having a second mod with a different perspective would help a lot with community-building I think, especially since this community was intended to serve a similar audience as the r/visualnovels subreddit, which seems to mostly like galge?
I see, I hadn't considered that some of the mechanics would be harder for mobile players ๐ค The main reason for my complaint is that the fights feel way too short if you play them perfectly, you don't even get to listen to the entire soundtrack once when the boss goes down ๐ had this especially when fighting

Chigda. The soundtrack is incredible, but he goes down before you've even seen all the mechanics.I honestly didn't realize how much I've been missing a proper AAA girly game on PC until I played infinikki. I'd been using FFXIV to scratch that fashion itch until then, but a proper dress-up game is just better :,) Also I will go out and say the puzzle design and encounter design is so much more interesting than that of comparable titles such as genshin impact (I just wish the fights were harder)!
we discussed this over in !otomegames@ani.social back when it was initially announced! The fandom seems to be delighted about this feature, but I'm personally more concerned about the data privacy aspect of it all...the author is absolutely right to look at this whole thing with scepticism
I find it a little far-fetched to solely link the popularity of otome games to some kind of frustration with modern dating, though. Romance games (and romance in games, e.g. Baldur's Gate 3 or Mass Effect) offer a lot of fun in-and-of themselves.
There's already !adventuregames@lemm.ee for this, they explicitly include interactive fiction in their list of allowed content.
