discussion Game you have a feeling that it is written by a lady

[scrapdragon]

to be fair, most of this section are male dev, and most of the time you will assumed they are.
however, is there a time you feel it when playing that, "oh, this maybe a lady writing" ?
no saying there is a stereotype; may or may not your sudden thought is true, just a feeling.
Game of Hearts, is one of mine.

Not gonna lie, I don't give a fuck one way or the other. Is it good? Do I have fun? Can I get hot and steamy with pixels? If yes, I couldn't care less if a rock made it. Unless that rock has a hole or the dev is offering me theirs, in which chase I'll be taking that hole.

Basically all otome and few lesbian games felt like that.

agree, about 50% out there feel like written by a rock, or a pile of sand bad writing.

It doesn't really matter if the story is written by a man or a woman, if the story is good I don't care if the author is a snail.

Although you can more or less identify when it is written by a man and when it is written by a woman by how they interpret ideas about sex, for men sex is something more physical and a need to be satisfied and for women it is something more psychological and emotional, it is not an exact science and there are exceptions, but generally it is like that.

Although it is ironic that later you see that the most disgusting, tragic and fucked up NTR stories were written by a woman and that some of the sweetest and most tender romantic novels were written by a man.
As I said, it is not an exact science and it does not matter who writes it.

I never thought to assume the author's gender from a story. It simply doesn't matter as long as the story works. I also tend to address people with the pronouns they/them when the gender is not obvious.

Dumb Koala games

Karlsson´s Gambit.

 

[Silicon12]

Almost all BL and I say ALMOST because I'm sure there are men who write that shit too in japan, fucking Kodomo no Jikan was written by a woman

 

[stevenseagale123]

Most lesbian games

 

[ChaosLoli]

I want to say that the well written ones are made by women, but that would just be my bias. There are probably dudes who write well too

Female programming dev's are rare... even more so in porn games. 9 out of 10 times I can guess the author of books by what they pay more attention to. I'm guessing none of the games in the member section were headed by women, but a couple of them may have been influenced or edited by one. Hi Emi is one of those games.

 

[nothereyet23]

Lillith's Throne definitely has this feel, mostly because it's one of the only truly pansexual games I've played (most of it is optional).
Re: Dreamer is written by a trans woman (I think), and certainly reads like it.
The Last Sovereign is developed by a woman (art is drawn by a woman too).
Finally, I think Black Souls was created by a woman?

Kie Sasuga is a woman but she has written some of my favourite dumb stereotypical harem manga ever (The girls Saurus series) I haven't checked out her newest series but I'm sure it'll be just as fun.

I can't think of one of the top of my head. But I sorta think most of the games where that has legit reactions to a choice is either a man that has alot of dating experience or a woman. It could also be a man that just knows the genre well or copies certain choice/response scenes. But sometimes it's like "oh that's good ass dialogue. This type of person with this background and personality would definitely react that way"
