![]() I have played games where route-locking the protagonist and their love interest were slowly separated from the rest of the main cast for the rest of the game. This freeform first half and character specific second half is common in otome games. Not every decision will progress your chosen route at first, but once you get to the fall semester it will lock you into your chosen bird’s path if you have experienced enough events with them. B) Pick one and stick to if from the startĮvery decision matters in a dating game, so there is little room for error. Since Hatoful’s game play is visual novel-based, with long stretches of dialogue between decisions, it is easy to speed your way through the game towards the bird of your dreams. There is a fast forward text button in the top right corner that stops when you have to make a decision. But getting a bad ending is not that much of a punishment anyways. It’s a shame that dating games leave very little room for error, so one cannot take everybirdie out for a test drive, but that is one of the limits of the genre. This additional insight into their character could help indecisive players into following the advice all their mothers have been giving: to stop puttering around and settle down already. For example, Nageki is rude to the player when they first meet in the library, but later events reveal more depth, like him opening up to the player about his tragic backstory. While the first day does a good job of introducing all the characters, the other events give the birds more depth. Warning! If you are too indecisive, your suitors all may die of old age. The game does introduce all the love interests during the first day of the game, but that might not be enough time for some people to decide who they want to make a nest with. While that did not succeed at wooing anybirde, their playthrough still had some value. They triggered events with almost every love interest, instead of focusing on just one. A) Be okay with getting a bad ending on the first playthroughĬhris and Dave were not impressed and confused why they were executed, but to a veteran of the genre, their error was painfully obvious. To avoid such a terrible fate, there are two tips I can give you. Their lack of commitment to one bird caused their gruesome end. The bad ending does not trigger til summer vacation ends, but you can seal your fate before then. In Chris and Dave’s stream, they accidentally spread themselves too thin. There is a small timeframe where the player can sample all the different birds, but that time is much smaller than it appears. Sadly, your assassins cannot be bribed with candy or your +5 Occult Halberd. If you unsuccessfully romance anybirde, you will be killed by assassins. Unlike dating sims for males, otome games do not have harem endings, which are when the player ends up with all of the possible love interests. The player needs to pick one and stick to it till the very end. Playing the field and stringing multiple birdies along will only get you killed. This is the most important tip for playing any otome game. So there will be something unique to otome that this guide will help you understand. You will still find some valuable knowledge here, as HB is an otome game, meaning that it is aimed at women. There is also a good chance that some of you Statistically Average Laser Time Consumers have some knowledge of dating sims and general anime and mange knowledge.
