I'm in the mood for some romance games but I don't know what to play. Looking for something with at least a bit of gameplay so no pure visual novels, preferrably where you can date boys but girls are fine, too.

Any suggestions?

Or games with dating elements. I need to fill the void in my heart

Persona 5 I guess.

Monster Girl Quest

Oops, forgot to mention the platforms I have avaible right now: PC, DS and 3DS

Emulate PSP Persona 3. It has a female route where you can romance the bois.

Wait for the .hack G.U. remake to do later this year. literally exactly what you want, including the boys.

Try this one. It's like $5

Wait that game has romance routes? I always thought they were linear. Not OP, but thanks.

OP wants cute boys you fucks

If you like farming simulations, you could try Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons or Stardew Valley. HM/SoS have dateable boys in all their recent games

Yeah, the story is fairly linear but the social routes aren't. At the end you can even marry someone, including 2 straight up marrying a dude endings to go along with the friendship ends. There are rumors we might get more marriage candidates with the remake.

>they remake G.U. but not the original games
I'm still sad

Dream Daddy comes out in 2 weeks. You romance Dads as a Dad. For PC. It's a VN but it has minigames.

Harvest Moon you can emulate.

Story of seasons.

Mass Effect 3 and Andromeda.

Dragon Age Inquisition.

Bully you can kiss boys.

Apparently you can have a gay romance sex scene in Technomancer.

They've said they're gonna announce more .hack stuff. I still have hope.

Sweet. I was sold on the game earlier, but now it's a sure buy. Still not sure if I have to play the originals.

You don't, the stories are primarily self contained. It's still cool to go through all the .hack stuff that's out there as it gives you a bit more insight into the characters but it's entirely unnecessary to enjoy the games.

Fuck it. I'm still going to emulate the originals and watch the anime. I've been meaning to jump in this series for awhile now.

Speaking of Persona 3, is it possible emulating the PS2 FES version on PC?

Cool. Just don't watch roots before playing g.u. It aired while the games were being released on a very delayed schedule so the later episodes contain spoilers.

Yes, you can emulate both. PPSSPP for PSP and PCX2 or something for PS2. Very easy guides online for it if you look.

I'm not big on dating sims, but here's what titles come to mind right away. There's a dating sim called Hustle Cat on Steam and as far as I can remember it's on sale rn. It's an alright game with both male and female options available. Think these coffeeshop AUs that fanfiction writers are obsessed with nowadays - that's the entire game for you.

There's also a dad dating sim - sorry, Dream Daddy - coming out in about two weeks on Steam. Bara dad, goth dad, punk dad and steamy content included.

If you have a DSTwo or something of that sort, you can download Love Plus along with the translation pack. It includes three female love interests and is set in high school/various locations to which you can go with your date.

There's Tokimeki Memorial for the DS which has a bit of stat raising and such going on if that's enough gameplay for you

I always thought PS2 emulation was shit

wtf am i looking at

I want to know what the doggy is.
It looks to cute to be real.
