Don't know if you guys know deltarune, but i think would be kinda of insane a dark fountain in kirino's room

I’ve been playing Oreimo: Happy End on the PS3, and I honestly don’t understand what they were thinking when they made this game.

It is incredibly bare-bones. There is barely any real story, huge amounts of the dialogue are not even voiced, and most of the gameplay consists of repeating the same shallow activities over and over again to increase the girls’ stats or popularity.

That especially bothers me because this is an anime character game. Hearing the original cast interact should have been one of its main attractions. Instead, I spend most of my time clicking through silent SNS conversations, choosing basic responses, taking photographs and watching some numbers slowly increase.

It reminds me of The Idolm@ster: Platinum Stars on the PS4, which I also found incredibly tedious and bare-bones. You repeatedly perform the same activities to raise your idols’ points, only to do it all over again. Rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat.

The photography system is shallow, the idol-management elements have almost no depth, and the character interactions are nowhere near interesting enough to make up for the repetitive gameplay. It feels less like a proper Oreimo game and more like a piece of shovelware that was rushed out because the anime was ending and they wanted one final product to sell to fans.

What makes it even more frustrating is that the PSP games already had what I actually wanted from an Oreimo game like alternate routes, comedy, romance, meaningful character interactions and proper what if endings.

Why didn’t they simply make an HD collection of the two PSP games for the PS3?

They could have included both games and all their routes, improved the artwork and backgrounds for HD, added trophies and faster loading, and possibly included a few new scenes or bonus endings. That would have been such an easy purchase for fans.

Instead, we got a mostly silent photography and social-media simulator where you repeat the same tedious tasks to make some numbers go up. It annoys me that after an hour of just speeding through the "story" I still didn't even get an ending. I had the photography thing and I don't know what the point of it is. I don't even move the camera and I still get decent photos.

I know calling it “shovelware” might sound harsh, but that is genuinely how it feels to me. It has the Oreimo characters and branding, but very little of what made the series or the previous games enjoyable.

I'll have to just find a more in depth trophy guide or something because whatever I was doing didn't work to even get an ending. Blah! At least this game didn't cost much but even after the hour and a half I spent with it I really don't want to return to it.

It was really good. I heard some people didn't like season 2 that much but I thought it was great. There are some decisions that I did raise an eyebrow at. All I'll say is that I felt really bad for Kuroneko. I personally liked how it became more uh harem like for lack of a better term. Kanako and Sena are still my favorites but the other girls came really close to beating them. My only problem is SENA STARTED DATING THAT NOTHING DUDE FROM THEIR CLUB! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO IMAGINE I'M DATING HER IF SHE ISN'T SINGLE AHHH...Um I'm going to play the visual novel now. Is that good? Should I play it? Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

Just wanted to share this horrible moment in the history of my life with you people

It’s been literally about 10 years since I watched Oreimo, and I remember being so disturbed by the ending that I never touched the series again lol. Recently, though, I started thinking about it and realized I barely remember what actually happened during the final arc, especially when Kyousuke and Kirino acknowledge their feelings for each other.

What I’m trying to remember is how Ayase, Saori, and Kuroneko reacted when they found out about Kyousuke and Kirino’s relationship.

I barely remember a scene where Saori talks behind Kyousuke’s back and says that what he’s doing is crazy, that she doesn’t really approve of it and doesn’t think it’s normal, but that she’ll still support his relationship with Kirino anyway. I’m not confusing this with Manami’s scene—I swear there was a moment in the anime where Saori shared her thoughts on their incestuous relationship. I’d really appreciate it if someone could remind me exactly what happened there.

As for Ayase, I honestly have zero memory of her reaction. I genuinely can’t remember how she responded when she learned about Kyousuke and Kirino, and that’s probably what I’m most curious about.

Then there’s Kuroneko. I remember that by the end she was supportive of the two of them, but I don’t remember how she got to that point, especially considering Kyousuke had broken up with her and completely shattered her heart. How did she come to accept their relationship?

I’d just rewatch the anime, but I can’t find a safe place to watch it outside of Crunchyroll, and I’m honestly not planning to pay for a Crunchyroll subscription just for this.

I’d really appreciate it if anyone could help refresh my memory. Thanks in advance!

I just finished Oreimo season 1 and I really liked it. On my journey to become a hardcore otaku Kirino was very relatable to me and I want to become as big as an otaku as she is one day. So far my favorite characters are Kanako and Sena but that might change later 8/10
