Post idea completely stolen from weekly “what are you playing Wednesday” posts from several gaming subreddits. Don’t want to flood the sub, but do want to at least signal that there’s at least one active user here!
When this magazine was pretty much dead, I made a post asking people to comment and @ me if they found the magazine and wanted to be active. That way I could get the best of both worlds by not flooding this magazine with tons of no-engagement posts, but also still be alerted if someone wanted to interact.
I later realized that if nobody on your instance subscribed to this magazine before I made that post, you wouldn’t be able to see it unless you looked on m/otomegame’s instance, kbin.social. Just by first appearances, it would seem totally dead and abandoned, and people would click away. So I guess weekly posts it is for a stream of new content to signal at least one person is active and checking here.
Blooming Panic and MysMe both have a chatroom as a setting. Blooming Panic is a shorter game BUUUT it's completely free, it's not a mobile game so it doesn't need energy or coins to unlock chats, and it has a skip system if you like replaying to get all the ends. MysMe has a more fleshed out story, it's got more content, and it has more romance options (and 707 my ultimate otome bias lol). I don't want to give too much of the story away, but Blooming Panic can have it's dark moments although not as dark as MysMe imo
Jumins bad end is definitely one of my fave ends if you pick it up again, but it's not for the faint hearted :'D
I either looked that one up or got it myself. Forget which, it was awhile ago. All I can say about it without spoilers is that the ribbon looks really high-quality :P Not sure how I felt about that at the time, but I didn’t dislike it.
Thank you for the comparison and the recommendation!
