#otome game 3d modelling

[arthotsglasses]

Olympia Soiree Office Room

So, yk that project I planned like a year ago about making otome environments in 3D and intractable?

After a year of my game dev college program and a load of extra knowledge from Youtube and Twitch, I made it happen. Here is my first room built out of sooo many more to go, but damn I'm finally good enough to start doing this!

Here is a video of me running around in play mode (using wasd and mouse) in Unreal Engine 5:

Comparison photo: original Olympia Soiree Switch screenshot (left), my Unreal screenshot (right)

Modelling process: Modelled and UV unwrapped in Blender, textures painted in Substance Painter:

Exported texture maps (in order of textures, normals, OcculsionRoughnessMetalic, and emissive):

TO WATCH ALL THIS HAPPEN, CHECK OUT MY TWITCH CHANNEL! THANK YOU

Now, rambles as usual:

Jesus Christ that took long and lot of work... even had to get a new pc cuz old one couldn't handle Unreal5 and Substance paint, had to upgrade...

Had to learn sooo many new things, before this I only knew how to model 3D objects. I had to learn how to UV unwrap, entire process of Substance Painter, and Unreal Engine 5.

In modelling, I had to learn the low to high poly workflow, and edge shading settings. That's the only new stuff I learned.

UV Unwrapping learning wasn't too difficult cuz the UVs didn't have to be perfect. Substance was gonna be good enough to handle them. Textile density and all that is still new and I'm still trash haha but it did the job for now.

Substance Paint tho.... had to learn all from importing low poly mesh, baking the high poly into texture maps, how to paint, masking, allllll of that, and finally export to get the 4 textures above.

Unreal 5 intro was a solid few days of pain. Starting from navigating the interface, dealing with importing meshes, textures and making them into materials, landscape & foliage generation (that I didn't use for this project yet), lighting settings, colliders, bit of blueprint.... yep but thank god I knew some Unity so it wasn't terrible.

SO... ik a lot of things still need work and missing. The books on the shelf are unfortunate cuz they weren't properly baked in Substance Painter. Some little props like books and stuff are not yet made either. There's a lot of weird edges and shading issues on the model. The lighting and stuff still needs a bit of work as well, it's not right on yet.

But,,, damn I'm soooo happy for what I was able to achieve, I didn't think I could do it this early! When I played it in the engine for the first time, it felt soooo real, I felt like I was in the game universe. I'm very excited to keep making more, and getting better with this stuff!

In the far future, I'll export it as an exe so you guys can try it out as well!

Next up in future again is probably rooms in comte's mansion, Sakamaki's house rooms, some piofiore rooms, and continuing with Olympia Soiree. Those interiors seem the easiest to start with.

comment to be tagged in future updates of this project!

Live Emotion Game Introduction 3 - Story

What to expect from the story mode in live Emotion:

As described on the official twitter account: In Live Emotion, you can enjoy a 'Main Story' alongside all 18 idols pursuing a new dream, 'Private Stories' to deepen your relationship with each idol, as well as 'Piece Stories' and 'Event Stories' that depict the idols' work and daily lives.

Analysis and translation of the story sections showcased below:

The boys are once again using their 3d models. Im curious if there will be any 2d illustrations, or live2d in the game, or if the 'pieces' that we collect via gacha will be pieces of 3d outfits/furniture etc that can be applied only to 3d models. Id like for there to be at least some kind of pretty 2d visuals!

Rather than being some mysterious figure in Shining Live, we can once again welcome our lovely Nanami Haruka as our insert character for some of the stories! Or at least, thats the name that is being used in the preview video. the disclaimer below says that the protagonists name can be changed. Welcome back Nanami!

I wonder what the new venture the boys (and Haruka) are taking part in for the main story is! It looks like the story mode has taken more inspiration from otome games with the player able to make choices.

Clip 1 - Main Story

Translation:

MC/Haruka: It's been a few days since the decision was made. The day of the press announcement came quickly. MC/Haruka: Before the event begins, I greet everybody personally. *Ai, Tokiya, and Eiji appear on the screen. MC/Haruka: "Good morning. Um, everyone... good luck hanging in there for today's press conference!"

Clip 2 and 3 - Private Story (Fully Voiced)

Scene 1 Translation:

MC/Haruka: "I- I'm fine with anything!" Ren: "Dont hold yourself back. I'm the one who invited you out to eat after all." Ren: "It's a waste to go out to eat alone on a rare day off, so I'm happy you came."

Scene 2 Translation:

Yamato: "It's not like I could teach you anything on your own, Im teaching the other members too." Yamato: "Besides, if a beginner goes in without knowing anything you'll get hurt, you know? Dont underestimate training!" Haruka: He's right, I think I'd be really grateful to have Yamato teach me..." *Choice of response appears. Option 1 - Well... I'll take your word for it. Option 2 - I'll be looking forward to it!

I will be moving to cover the game at @live-emotion once the game introduction videos are all revealed, so please follow there now if you'd like to see more coverage of the game as it's releasing.

tot is definitely trying harder because they have more competition in the mobile cn otome scene (esp deepspace lol)but i will not complain it as long as they don’t force us to relive the artem midfest

about the high school au card general thoughts from weibo are holy shit artem why are you making everyone hard pity or almost hard pity smh. the card is good and it does a good job at giving you a cute innocent school romance/crush some posts giving praise to both artem and rosa’s lines + writer/writing team as well

joining the war on love and deepspace on the side of love and deepspace solely to ensure that tot feels pressured to actually write a decent story and to also care about character consistency again

it's interesting from a market perspective. love and deepspace has a really strong grip on those who like "spicy" content, especially because of its 3d models. that's what it's marketed as, and that's what it really excels at. i know of several other cn otome games with better borderline nsfw content too, ones that lean into it fully and a lot more openly than tot. i also know of several other cn otome games that are completely outdoing tot in terms of writing and art - lovebrush chronicles for example.

tot is fascinating bc it originally found a niche as a whodunit mystery game with otome elements and interesting characters. it also had a boost being a mihoyo made game.

but then they noticed people liked the steamier content, so they abandoned their original niche to chase after fanservice at the expense of their storytelling and characters. and now that other games out there are doing the whole borderline nsfw thing much better than they are (because let's be real, tot sacrificed their writing in the name of extremely mediocre softcore porn foreplay and tropes that other games do better), it feels like they're trying to bring back the original writing and are trying to think outside of the box in terms of art and new official art styles.

i wonder where tot will go from here, or if this will work?

god okay, additional side rant incoming. but before i do - that's fantastic news about the high school au cards.. thank you!!

did you know lovebrush had the mls have their first kisses with mc at different times? ayn's happened on white day, cael's happened in an ssr card story following white day, and the remaining boys had theirs happen during their azure island routes. and you know what? it made sense for their characters!

ayn is very blunt and straight forward. cael had several other card stories dedicated to building up their relationship. alkaid is too afraid of upsetting mc and would not make the first move. clarence is still getting used to being in a romantic relationship. lars is a hopeless romantic who seems preoccupied with waiting for the "right moment".

and it just. keeps reminding me of tot's second anniversary. where the writers planned to have luke propose to rosa because of his whole "i'm dying in three years" thing which... makes sense! that makes sense! but why on earth would you make the other three guys propose when it doesn't make sense for them?? i just. ugh.

sometimes i wonder if it's too late for tot to fix their writing.

and the funny thing! lbc has a wedding event in the cn server! but you want to know something even funnier?? it's not an actual wedding! it's a photoshoot event! none of them are engaged!

tot could have gone so many routes and they took the ones with the worst writing and it's mind boggling. you CAN do fanservice with good writing!

#tears of themis #lovebrush chronicles #asks #anon #tot spoilers #lbc spoilers #cn spoilers #sorry this is probably such a biased mess of a rant but. ughhhh

Winter 2024- What I Finished

So as this anime season is coming to an end. Here are the shows I actually kept up with and overall enjoyed immensely.

There will be spoilers so be warned lol

The Unwanted Undead Adventurer

I have enjoyed this series, the way Rentt is so determined to become a mithril-class adventurer even as an undead. The 3D models for the fight scenes move pretty well with the background matching them, especially in episode 9. This series is a slow-burn, even with the story progression, but I appreciate it because we see so much character growth for Rentt and how he interacts with the people and his friends. The music is fairly average for the series, but it does have some good moments especially when Rentt is in thought or making a choice. I loved coming full circle and him regaining his "human" features even though he still is very much a vampire now. Shun Narita, the composer for the series had some standout moments (fight scenes and contemplativeness) of music throughout the season so hats off to him.

The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic

I fell in love with the humor of this series from the get-go and not a single episode is a disappointment. It is so full of life and this past week for episode 11, the line " Now that's the wrong way to use healing magic" was used in a perfect moment. The lead up of Usato's characters growth and seeing all his hard work and "torture" from Commander Rose's training *actually* matter was brilliant. Element Garden has done a great job with the music that just gets your blood pumping. Probably will make a separate post for this series once it's over.

A Sign of Affection

The shoujo everyone is talking about, FOR GOOD REASON. To see the romance between the leads develop was so satisfying and wholesome. The development of the side characters so far is handled well, and at times the flashbacks scenes take over an episode but they are necessary. The art style and the use of lighting are done so well. It was a very cute show and always will love seeing an adult romance.

Solo Leveling

What can I say that hasn't been said already? I started reading the manwha in 2019 and have reread many times since. Hiroyuki Sawano was a great choice and the soundtrack WILL be on loop once it's released fully. Smart pacing choices to have it end with him gaining a job, this week will be a blast of an episode. Wish it had been slotted for 24 episodes... The last two episodes KILLED it, the animation, the music?! I was on cloud nine.

Mr. Villains Day Off

A perfect wholesome background anime, that is just about a Villian who loves pandas on his days off. The episodes where they focus on the Rangers aren't super interesting and makes you question the ethics of the world? It's a very cute show and sometimes, it's just a need in life. Ending was split between resolving the previous episode and the lead up to the Rangers and the Villian's battle.

Villainess Level 99: I May Be the Hidden Boss but I'm Not the Demon Lord

The Isekai'd into an Otome game genre is SO saturated but somehow I ended up loving this show. Yumielle is so autistic coded and straightforward, no one quite knows how to react to her. Patrick is head over heels for her, not that she ever notices, and they're dynamic is adorable. I have laughed watching this show and the only reincarnation anime that didn't bog me down with guessable plot.

Hokkaido Gals Are Super Adorable!

I fell so hard for this anime that I binge read the manga...who's art is definitely butchered in the adaption, it's so wholesome but the way episode 11 ends off MY GOD the miscommunication hurts me, and people will definitely riot watching the finale...and then picking up the manga to suffer for 40 chapters...BUT it's worth it. Tsubasa and Fuyuki all the way, they're chemistry is the best in the show as they each influence each other to open up, to be serious about the future and to help themselves grow as people. So sad to see this show go but maybe we'll get another season?

Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?!

This anime has me kicking my feet in joy and makes me miss my long-distance partner so fucking much. When Kurosawa and Adachi kissed? I was whooping in happiness. Adachi has a lot of room to grow with his communication with Kurosawa but pretty sure the final manga cover is a wedding outfit? My poor notes app I use to write my thoughts/observations as I watch seasonal anime is " SO GAY. KISS PLEASE." for several episodes between them. I loved that the end credits was the wedding but I can't wait to read the manga to compare it!

Gushing Over Magical Girls

I'm not one to watch ecchi shows but this, THIS is just such a delight to watch. Utena is such a loveable protagonist, a magical girl loving person who gets turned into a villain and has to "fight" the girls she loves. By fighting its not LMAO. I adore all the characters in this show and how fresh the writing for them is. Its beautifully animated and the finale was so much fun to watch!

Mashle S2 - Divine Visionary Arc

I picked up the first volume at the bookstore halfway through the season to try reading, after Bling-Bang-Bang-Born blew up, and I was not disappointed. Binged Season 1 and caught up in a day. There's just something so satisfying with gag humor and shounen fight scenes. I love everyone (besides for Innocent Zero, fuck that guy) and will for sure be binge reading the manga. The music, as always, is so hype and having rap for the fight scenes is very interesting. The soundtrack for S2 just released yesterday and has some amazing tracks on it.

Shangria-La Frontier

What. An. Amazing. Show. Never thought I'd like a VR Gaming anime as much as I do now, but this was just so vibrant and humorous. Sunraku's tenacity at gaming and taking on challenges, plus my love for rogue/assassin builds from DND, made him such a likeable character. The entire Weathermon fight to be slotted for 4 episodes was just..gorgeous and stunning. The Music?!? God its perfection. The NPC's of Rabitzu... to have characters and just to not be weird was very much appreciated to me. I sincerely wish it had the fandom that other Fall 2023 shows, cough cough Frieren, Undead Unluck and Apothecary Diaries, has because I just want more merch sobs. The cosplans I have for this show? Too many, and its already in production for another 2 cour season for this fall!!

The Apothecary Diaries

What a spectacular show and fabulous 24 episodes. The animation, the music (Satoru Kosaki, Kevin Pinken, Alisa Okehazma), the characters, the backgrounds?! I enjoyed watching the characters interact and loved the humor in the animation. I also just read and caught up with the manga in 2 days...so it's that good and a worthwhile watch and read!

[jazeswhbhaven]

Sorry everyone, I've been super distracted today by a moot streaming herself beta testing the upcoming 3D otome "Love and Deepspace" and I found another Raphael (Rafayel) that I like....BUT ANYWAYS If you guys ever get the chance to pre-reg, you should because yeah it's a typical fem MC romance/sensual mild nsfw (where you can see a nipple, get a little flirty, but nothing too sexual it seems from the stream play) and it's also a gacha based otome with way more interactive battles. Like we talking Final Fantasy like? Also, the variation of skin tones and customization of your MC makes it really interesting. I did ask if it's f2p friendly, but since it's beta for her they were giving her items to help her play the game in its fullest. ALSO THIS HAS 3D MODELS. Some have expressed they don't like the 3D models, but I do? Maybe it's because it reminds me of the renders I see in movies and I always ask "Why can't we have this in a game..." and i'm always told that it's too much graphics/programming and it usually overloads whatever we're using. (iirc I half listen sometimes) This has 0 to do with WHB I know, but I dabble in various games so lol I may mention them here from time to time when I feel like it. I WILL say though, that honestly...I wish WHB did beta testing before like what I'm seeing my moot play around with. This is a great way to catch bugs, wonky gameplay, translations, and etc. I digress, back to my scheduled programming lol

#jwhbrandom blurbs🖤

[stupid-sloot-headcanons]

On one hand, discontinuing the Obey Me story and not doing further lessons makes sense considering this past season felt so empty and mediocre, so maybe killing it before it becomes a dead horse is the best course of action

On the other hand, the story we're doing in Nightbringer doesn't sound that much better. Apparently we're going back in time and pretending to be a demon, and instead of an otome novel style we've got the gimmicky shitty looking 3D models of the characters. Also it's a rhythm game because we really want to ride that Enstars hype alongside our new 3D models and ig a card system is too complicated and grindy; honestly I like some rhythm games but it feels unnecessary when the card system seemed just fine. Besides rhythm games are incredibly easy to slap together and feel cheaper to me than the original card system

With how much money OM has raked in, you'd think that you'd get more good news from the fandom than bad but Nightbringer feels like it's going to be a hot mess. Anyway sorry for everyone who spent so much time and money grinding for three years just for the game's story to end. Now you're paying the VIP package to solely do events in a game that seems destined to die out soon

Devlog #1

I've never made one of these before so bear with me What's up? My name is Helios and I am the sole creator of the game The Barlow Estate's White Rose, a visual novel/walking sim made in Unreal 3D. A game made for me and everyone else who love isekai manwha's and wants to experience that kind of vibe in an otome game. Alright let's get into it.

The game take place in Duke Barlow's Estate in the country side. It belongs to a well off noble family, and has plenty of knights and servants. It is the full time home of Duke and Duchess Barlow, while their children mainly lives in the mansion in the capital.

It's a huge mansion with the surrounding garden. And though I haven't figured out the layout of every room and corridor and secret hallway yet. I have made progress in making the outside of the building and figure out how the shape of the mansion will be

I am fully aware these pictures means nothing for the majority, but let me explain. There are about four levels of elevations in the house: The cellar, that mostly contains secret corridors, the first floor that contains a large area and also the ballroom and the servant quarters, the second floor, that will eventually have the noble family's bedrooms and also is connected to the ballroom's gallery, and then the roof. The building will have a main building with the ballroom and a few rooms like a parlor, sitting rooms, and maybe an office. Two identical wings that will have bedrooms and guest rooms. And an off shut closed courtyard where the kitchen storage and servants quarters will be.

This design also leaves a lot of space for a front garden and a large garden in general.

While the setting and level for the game will be created in 3D, the actual characters will still be 2D sprite that the player can walk up to and interact with. This will hopefully create an interesting art style and make the game memorable, but also spare me from having to learn how to 3D model humans.

I guess that is it for Devlog #1

Life Since Spirit City (Week 6)

This week was once again, fulllll of art!

I started working on this animation for Chronically Amber

And after that, my week got really busy. I was working on a drawing for a client's painting....

And then I was also working on the Background Art for a gamejam I'm joined. This time, Otome Jam 2024

Our game centers around a matchmaker that can possibly date her clients.

I first did a recolor of a mockup the director sent me.

This is the final set of colors we went with. She said she wanted a reception area added.

This was where I took the lining at first.

I used the keyboard from the original mockup to make sure the perspective I had in mind for it was correct. I changed this a lot over the whole work.

This is the final version without generic lighting.

This coming week is going to be full of painting, sketching, and possibly even 3D modeling. Wish me luck!

vn project sketches

yakno I had plans on making this website a professional portfolio type deal but i have a lot of thoughts and no where to put them other than here

updates down below ദ്ദി ˉ͈̀꒳ˉ͈́ )✧

*:･ﾟ✧I'm working on a visual novel*:･ﾟ✧Specifically, I'm trying to work on one for the Otome Game Jam on itch.io. Uhh all by myself AHA

Ah, the concept that I decided on all started as a "what if" that I brought up to my partner. But after some brainstorming and expanding on it, I realized that there's actually a lot of potential to be found! HOWEVER, with the way the concept is, I realized that there's gonna be at least 6 LOVE INTERESTS oopsies. First visual novel btw. ☝️🤓 Did I mention I only have 2 months to work on this.

I spent the first week procrastinating DOING RESEARCH by playing games that I envision my own game to be! I went to school for game development but specifically for art, 3d modeling and animation. Having to write a whole ass script and making it interesting is daunting as fuck.

This whole project is scary tbh LOLOLOL, but I am super determined to be able to finish this thang! ugh oka thats enough updates goodnight.

Today I'm Gonna Play: Love and Deepspace

I came across this video a couple months ago of a really high poly guy and thought it was CGI made by someone talented. Turns out it was an upcoming otome game for mobile?! I replaced my phone recently so this was a good time to look forward to trying something with high-end graphics for this platform.

My experience with Otome games isn't much. I've played those dating sims that a few friends were very into back in school on DeviantArt, notably by Zeiva and Pacthesis. This was my entry to the Visual Novel (VN) genre, but I didn't understand the appeal of of liking 2D guys. Fast forward and I've also played a couple otome VNs on mobile and dabbled slightly on PC and even though I find a few interesting love interests based on appearance and personality, I STILL didn't get the appeal, until I finally played Mystic Messenger two years ago and got my heart shattered and was rejected by my love interest lol. This idea of having a social messaging format with calls for a mobile game is one of the most creative things I've seen for both the VN genre as a whole as well as the mobile platform. I don't know if any other VNs have done something like this before.

What Love and Deepspace does, is basically take that same format and iterate upon it with its worldbuilding. But it doesn't stop there. The real selling points of this game is that it uses very high quality 3D models akin to Final Fantasy CGs and also have real-time action combat. This seemed like a combo I never thought would exist, but I'm sure as hell glad to see it. Apart from chatting and calls using your own created avatar, it includes other features such as micro blogs which are Twitter-esque, so you can like and comment on the other characters' posts, and sometimes make your own. There are interaction features with the love interest, by being able to touch him, ask him things, and even things like listening to heartbeats or blowing on him using your mic?? It's another level of immersiveness! Minigames also exist which add to the story, such as claw machines (which are actually not to rigged compared to real life), playing cards, taking photos, and mini stories or audio that you can obtain from gacha.

The gacha aspect is not related to obtaining your love interest like in other gachas, but rather it's unlocking additional content about them, such as the mini stories. These stories tend to look like casual hangouts or even romantic dates. I'm not sure if there are any intimate scenes or not so far.

The story is not bad, I'm intruiged by the lore and the overall world as I like futuristic settings. There's a lot of info dump in documents and such that you typically see in gachas or RPGs, but this is one of the few times where I actually read through them. And surprisingly, the protagonist (you) is actually a lot more competent than expected!

The only issue I have is that the way the story is presented makes the characters look like they don't know each other yet and are distant, which is fine. But the romance parts you unlock through gacha or other features of the game seem more affectionate so it feels quite disjointed. It makes me feel confused on how I can piece these moments together.

Another nitpick although minor is that the daily stamina that you can obtain through login times don't seem to sync up in local time, so I'm assuming it's based on China's time zone instead. I've mostly been on this game during the evenings which make me miss both of them. It's a bit of a weird decision for international players.

I've also seen comments online about the lack of a male character or other gender options. I also agree that this would be nice to have. But I also acknowledge that this game is primarily aimed towards women (therefore an otome game), and since it's a Chinese game, I'm not sure if they would allow any type of BL in it. This could cause a bit of disinterest for international players. The only option I can see is to provide a larger variety of options for the current female avatar (which is also a complaint even amongst women playing the game), which could also have the avatar look a little more masculine presenting, etc. This could be a slight workaround towards any censorship laws while also allowing for more diversity. Plus technically speaking, the advantage of shorter hair or buzz cuts etc. would also mean less complex hair rigging (like with long hair) so it may be easier to animate and handle.

Overall, this game has huge potential that could transform romance/otome games for mobile like Mystic Messenger if all goes well. This will be another mobile game I'll keep playing!

[amiamiiku]

So, two days ago I downloaded an otome game, it's called love and deep space. The global release was yesterday, I've honestly been waiting for this game since I saw an advertisement for a 3D model of one of the characters

I initially fell for Xavier cuz ukhm, the character with white hair is attractive but after playing the game I fell for Rafayel, heard me out! Look at him, besides being visually attractive he is also a painter and

Look at his card! Gosh, that's very interesting, I just got it, honestly I'm in a dilemma about who to choose, hehe

Oh! And one thing that really surprised me was the battle system, no one said the battle system was like this, all I knew was "this is an otome game with 3D visuals" HEY!! IT'S MORE THAN THAT

I feel like I would really like this otome game, I've played several other otome games, one of which is For All Times, but I haven't played that game anymore

I'm the type of person who gets bored quickly, so let's see how long this game lasts on my phone, but I think it will last a long time, I quite enjoy the gameplay

And here are the three characters who are Mc's love interests

[taraxacum-vulpes]

ok is love and deepspace any good bc i am slowly being tempted into downloading it

I JUST STARTED PLAYING IT THIS MORNING. i'm not sure about like. the love interests(? i'm under the assumption this is a gacha otome? i'm not sure i preregistered and completely forgot everything abt this game)

the graphics are good. i think it's the most realistic 3d model mobile game i've played so far. SURPRISINGLY my phone isn't getting warm from it (i have it on lowest settings though). aside from sprites during dialogue, the graphics are good even w a potato <3

the basic UI is pleasant. it's structured similarly to HI3 with story-driven open world segments, as far as i know? however (early game) it's more dialogue focused. i've only gotten to 1-09. it does do a weird thing where most of the story plot otome aspects are in portrait while the open world sections are landscape. which isn't bad just weird.

the character/avatar maker is surprisingly in depth but also limiting? like you can change every aspect of your facial structure but it's. you know

the out-of-story character interactions are pretty good. i like being able to annoy the love interests but that might be a perk to me and me only.

however it does take up a decent amt of space

it is not 3gb.

I can't say if it's good rlly bc i'm actively playing it but i do like it and i'll probably keep playing it <3 it reminds me of Themis ngl. like that type(? higher end?) of otome.

but if you do play 🫶 i'm 90% sure there's a friends function here (i'm just not far enough in for it) and you should add me 🫶🫶

#... does this help any

(love and deepspace anon) aksjdjejd of course you can't private reply anon i forgor lmao sorry sorry)

Oooh i hate separate gacha pulls for weapons too and the models do look kinda weird at times... I dunno, for me maybe I'm just not used to 3d otoge LIs?

i don't know what to say about english vas cuz even if i do end up playing the game when released, i will most likely stick with cn voice :p

im also somewhat interested in shen xinghui🤝 bcuz he seems like an airhead lolol. on that note, what do you think of their en names?

hahaha, no worries! your privacy is guaranteed~

there are rumors that more men will be added (potentially the "brother"?), although i'm not sure that's a good idea when it's so late in the development (looking at the complaints for Charlie and Jesse in light and night, to say nothing of the Ling Xiao debacle in love and producer, although i blame most of this on papergames for not setting their foot down...).

3 love interests is certainly on the smaller end though. i think the sweet spot is 4 while 5 should be the highest for a chinese mobile otome game. having 3 means, even if you only bias one character, the rotation of events will happen faster and make you spend, haha. meanwhile, having too many characters means you'll be waiting forever for your bias to appear again (looking at all the joseimuke games in japan).

i was chatting with friends about how Shen Xinghui comes off as a stereotypical knight archetype (like Bai Qi) and so he's like a bland slice of white bread, but this is actually a good thing because it's hard to mess up this archetype and there is endless possibilities of development for him that can add "flavoring" to this white bread, like the jam of star-crossed lovers, etc.

this is in comparison to Li Shen, where it feels like they're forcing his tropes onto you and telling you what to feel. someone said he seems to be the 美强惨 (beautiful, strong, and tragic) character but i would rather come to this conclusion through the game story, instead of them telling me this at the beginning with his trailer showing his illness and whatnot. he's also a childhood friend and i think by now everyone knows i don't really go for childhood friends, haha.

i think their english names are a little excessive, but my greatest complaint is that Xavier and Zayne should be switched!!
