Otome or gay?

[StriderTien]

Not trying to stir the pot. Just wanna know.

Could be either, I'd say. The player character is a white blob to which you can assign such gender as suits you.

[StriderTien]

I see. Thank you.

Yeah, like the others are saying, great effort has been taken to make this game inclusive and accessible to people of any gender. The love interests never directly comment on your gender or your anatomy, beyond that you have a good butt, and you look kind of like a marshmallow. The target audience is just lovers of men, from all walks of life.

And like Kittiana Foxtail points out, the love interests so far are exclusively cis men, or at least men with penises, so you could refine "Lovers of Men" further to "Lovers of Men and Penises"

This forum has the same "profanity" filters as any other Steam game, so that the full name of roaches and the male version of peahens get censored (which I personally find hilarious, because my mind automatically substitutes a 4-letter blank with a much worse word than the original). Some of those games are very family friendly, so I can kind of understand that, but like you said, it's a medical word, it should technically get a pass.

Perhaps "Lovers of Pen island" would work.

[StriderTien]

Steam will let us buy full on porn games but censor medical terminology to describe a mans nether regions. I suppose you can't have everything.

if you downloaded and paid for it that's one thing, but some sensitive individual might stumble on an open forum and start crying about how seeing that word gave them cancer.

I'd say gay, as regardless on if the blue genderless avatar is considered male or female they like to "play" around with the other guys. Therefor exhibiting an attraction more toward the same sex than toward the female protagonist as it would be in Otome.

So this means women are gay because they like men? Just trying to follow the logic you've got there...

I mean, now that I think about it... it's not like anyone is asking if Crush Crush is yuri or anything when there's literally two women in a relationship (Karma/Sutra) and more than once one of the other date-able girls talks about how hot one of the other girls is. I withdraw my observation.
I think I have to just agree with the 'Blush Blush is a game for people who like looking at guys.'

[deweydjb]

There is a site that features blush in the gay section of games and if they are also beta testing there, i imagine there may be some asking for gay content. Some of the characters are leaning to gay to me!

Thank you all for your input. You've certainly satisfied my curiosity.
