EVERYONE SAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MR NATE LAWSON XOXO DROPLETS!!!!!!!!!!!!
A list of a few otome games that I absolutely love~
My First Otome game, also I’ve played a lot of other voltage games so I’m not gonna add anymore to the list just take my word for it.
Seduce Me
I love these games right here. I’d do anything to ask Michaela Laws (The creator of the games) to make a three. Love the opening song lol.
Mystic Messenger
Luckily I already had no life when I played this game so the 3am chatrooms didn’t bother me too much. Opening is a banger lol.
Cinderella Phenomenon
I love this game, Waltz Is my bae and these other boi be so damn cute. Plus it has a pretty good story on top of that Highly recommended. Also the opening song slaps.
Fire Emblem: Three Houses
Isn’t technically a otome game but also yes it is fight me. Lol in all seriousness the dating sim elements are pretty nice and love these bois.
Obey Me
I… loved this game but unfortunately I do not play it anymore. Why? Well the grind to get to the next story just wasn’t fun anymore so yeah I do however realize that these bois have unique personalities and are cute. I just don’t have the patience.

This game here~ I love everything bout it except one thing the be friends with everyone mechanic. I honestly hate it and a younger me actually stopped playing it because of it the first time. It just wasn’t fun, now I know u can just cheat that away but then it gives you nothing to do but wait until the weekend to spend with ur asshole boi of choice. (Mines is Everett) I still recommend it tho I’m just impatient and easily bored.
Our Life: Beginnings and Always
This is one of the best damn otome games I played. It has many options to make your character feel like you and a sweet boi that I personally really like. It has a great nostalgic feel that made me wish I spent more time playing outside as a child, this game made me cry a few times and just made me want to give any kid I have a nice childhood like the one’s in this game. Plus the music is great very soothing.
They not making it outta the lodge but god I love combining my favorite things

hii 😭 idk if youre still around to talk about shiloh but i am digging around for scraps and am very interested in any other thoughts you have about him?! like the shiloh-nate similarities you mentioned or anything thank you and/or sorry 😭🙏
Oh, dearest anon, I am ALWAYS HERE TO TALK ABOUT SHILOH! I always welcome opportunities to talk about my boys, so don’t feel shy— send as many questions as you want 💕
Ahem, when I was writing one of my huge Shiloh analysis posts, one of the conclusions I came to is that one of possible interpretations of Shiloh’s… Shiloh-ness, is that his manipulative tendencies stem from a need for control.
He’s good at reading people and understanding what they need: he has specific manipulation tactics that he tweaks to fit a specific group’s needs and carefully, painfully, adheres to them. I’d say that makes them somewhat predictable— once he finds out that JB responds well to flattery, he lavishes her with endless praise. Once he figures out she prefers problematic men, he lets her in on some of his techniques so she feels like they are closer. He makes himself someone people need, even if they don’t want him.
It’s a way for him to control the narrative. It’s his way to have power, since he’s never the leader.
And well, Nate is canonically a control freak. He just expresses it differently.
He doesn’t really trust other people to do things right, because in his mind they’re all incompetent anyway, so he constantly overwhelms himself with responsibility. That also stems for a need for control— Nate can’t control his own feelings (hence him being prone to bursts of anger and tears) so he controls everything else, to the point there she keeps a tight leash on even those close to him (ie. Everett and JB).
He’s a natural-born leader and people kind of gravitate towards him— even if he tries to push them away.
Nate is the most popular guy in school, after all, even if his reputation isn’t the best.
So at least in my mind that makes them equals and opposites: Both need control. Both thrive in having a firm grasp over their lives— they just express it differently:
Nate doesn’t have control over his emotions and Shiloh doesn’t know how to be genuine, Nate pushes others away while Shiloh needs them close.
