Chapter Title: VTuber Plays a Dating Sim
-----------------------------------------------------------------
VTuber playing a dating sim game.
Dating sim.
Short for beautiful girl romance simulation game.
Dating sims are simulation games where you romance beautiful girls, and there's no better game for gauging personal sexual preferences.
While it varies by game, dating sims typically let you pursue multiple heroines, each with their own unique charms.
The pure glasses big sis type.
The cute legal loli big sis.
The sexy bombshell big sis.
The 30-something chicken-coop massive-tits big sis, and so on... Characters tailored to every possible player taste are the standard fare in dating sims.
The more pursueable characters there are, the higher the chance it's a god-tier game.
But stuffing in too many heroines mindlessly can backfire and tank the game's quality.
More heroines mean exponentially more scripts and illustrations to produce.
But the game I brought today boasts a whopping twenty pursueable heroines. Twenty.
And to top it off, in line with the recent PC trend, you can even pursue male characters.
That's right.
This isn't a beautiful girl romance sim.
It's a beautiful girl (bitch) romance sim.
The romance simulation game, Clear After Rain ~My Golden Love Story with Her and Him~.
It was already pretty famous for streams, and among dating sim fans, it's hailed as a god game.
🔴 LIVE CHAT - Oh - Super ultra god game incoming kyaaa!!! - Finally good content after ages - Big one's hereeeeee - Let's dive into the dating sim yaaaaaaa - Wonder what this girl's take on dating sims is? - Can't imagine the cult leader playing a dating sim lololol The viewers' reactions were solid right from the start.
Hmm, worth the pre-stream research.
Before starting the game, I asked the audience a few questions.
"How long does it take to play this game, anyway?"
🔴 LIVE CHAT - Around 5 hours per heroine, right? - Main story's 5 hours, full subs push it to over 10 per girl. - Heroines x | Male chars o. - Yeah, you can pursue guys in this one... - Even got a shota lol - Shota, loli, milfs, glasses, pure, cute—it's got it all Five to ten hours per character.
Truly god-game volume.
I've set my goal before even starting today's stream.
"One guy, one girl. Fair and balanced pursuits."
🔴 LIVE CHAT - Why a guy tho - Kick that dude out!!!!!!!! - Info) Streamer's a girl. - But viewers are guys? - Pls pursue the flat loli tall girl... - Kick out the flats, trend is thicc. - Flat or thicc idc just boot the dude I'd love to just pursue two girls and call it a day.
But the devs went out of their way to make male pursuits possible—gotta try at least one, right?
No personal bias here.
All for the stream.
💰 DONATION ALERT 💰 Gaia-nim has donated 10,000 won. But pursuing guys in this game is secretly fun af. Bought it, ditched the girls, pursued 10 dudes. Especially Alves <- that bro's muscles are hot af ㅇㅇ; 🔴 LIVE CHAT - ? - ?? - Dude... - You a girl? - Futa? - Gaygay... - You gotta be a girl. - Ugh gay bitch - Cultists are degenerates fml "Th-that's a bit..."
A donation that obliterated the cultists' average decency score.
Please.
The adoring fans seemed like such good, normal people, so why are the ones watching my stream all like this?
Anyway, I started the game.
First up, customization, as always.
Like most dating sims, the player appears as a black silhouette.
Not customizing looks, but other elements.
Like gender.
Surprisingly, beyond male and female, there were several more options—true to its PC branding.
I picked intersex.
Male inside, female outside.
Perfect fit for me.
"Going with this."
🔴 LIVE CHAT - For real going with that? - Streamer tastes wild lololol - That's abyss tier - Futafuta... - This the usual stream? - Guaaaghh - Just pick girl... "H-huta? You maniacs. It's intersex! This ain't an eroge!"
Words matter—this isn't that kind of game.
Someone might think I'm playing a 19+ adult dating sim instead of all-ages.
💰 DONATION ALERT 💰 Anonymous-nim has donated 4,000 won. No worries about cult leader's skills tanking this one phew;;; 🔴 LIVE CHAT - Lmao fr - Dating sim lol - Streamer's a dating sim ㅇㅇ - Trash game skills? Yeah, just click options. Yeah, that's key too.
Sim games are the same whether played by a pro like Ayase or a trash gamer streamer like me.
No skill pressure today.
Downside: pursuing two characters means a long stream.
With that, the game began.
Story rundown: The player wins a resort trip ticket and heads to a small island, only to encounter a mysterious Anomalous Phenomenon alone and get cursed.
Solving the curse and the Phenomenon is simple.
Besides the player, twenty other men and women are vacationing on the island. The cure? Share a true love's kiss with one within five days.
Fail, and the protagonist gets devoured by the Phenomenon.
Luckily, helpful items appear to aid romance—maximize them to kiss a pursueable character. That's clear conditions.
...Hmm.
What a trash fire plot.
It nods to reality with Phenomena and items, but...
A Phenomenon outside its zone?
Such a lame curse? Overflowing with melodrama.
After the trash intro, time to meet pursueables.
Every night, a 'barbecue party' gathers all twenty characters—a prime chat opportunity. So I started talking to each heroine.
"Dudes first out. Girls priority."
🔴 LIVE CHAT - Kyaaaa - Boot dudeeeee - Ah... gaybacks... - ? - Wtf are gaybacks - Gaygay... - Cultist avg lol First girl: Polite space otaku intellectual type.
"I see. So what are your thoughts on astrophysics, Miss Jia?" 1. Wha, astrophysics? Uh... new game title? (Humor) 2. Super interesting field. Got hooked reading Carl Sagan's Cosmos. (Intellect) 3. Dunno much else, but you're prettier than any star, Yuri. Fact. (Flirt) 4. Don't know much about astrophysics—mind explaining? (Bonding) 5. (End chat) 🔴 LIVE CHAT - Heh heh heh Yuri glasses waifu - My wife. - Intellectual glasses Yuri best pant pant - Must pursue Viewers seem to love her.
Ew.
"Not my type. Pretty face, but too smug."
🔴 LIVE CHAT - No waaaay my Yuri glasses waifuuu - Dropping Yuri? Dropping Yuri? Dropping Yuri? - Graaaah was my oshi - Option 1 makes Yuri love you tho?? - She's weak to humor ㅠㅠ - Yuri cut lol - I ain't into Yuri either lol streamer knows tastes ㅇㅇ Chat exploded, naturally.
Everyone's tastes differ.
My nightmare char could be someone's fave.
Viewers' opinions? Ignored.
Purely my tastes rule.
Glasses pure sis? Out.
Hot-blooded tomboy sis? Out.
Yandere stalker? Out.
Landmine degenerate? Out.
After dumping them all, two left.
🔴 LIVE CHAT - Dropping all?? Who left - Wait the last two... Coincidentally, the survivors: Super thicc bombshell sis...
And cute loli. Just those two.
"..."
🔴 LIVE CHAT - Ofc these two survive lololol - This selection's broadcast genius lol - Guard cup god, big tit a - Guard cup angle here? - Thicc squad wins. Thicc squad wins. - Flat squad eternal. Flat squad eternal. - Pwahaha! - Nooooo! lol Not intentional.
But flats vs. massive tits survived.
🔴 LIVE CHAT - Cult leader's pick? - ㄷㄱㄷㄱㄷㄱ spam - No thicc = big decision. - Pick flat tall = 1 mil. Ugh.
My taste was set pre-game.
True VTuber otaku loves 2D over 3D.
But I do have preferred girl types.
More the merrier... no, bigger the better.
Size matters.
My pick...
🔴 LIVE CHAT - Kyaaaaaaaaaa - A...................... - Thicc squad wins! Thicc squad wins! Thicc squad wins! - Flat squad service ended................ - God-tier gayback streamer? Super follow lol - God-tier gayback streamer? Super follow. - Feels weird streamer picking thicc sis ㅇㅇ; - Fact: Cult leader's bigger than that thicc girl. - Really?? - Shockingly true. Sorry, flat squad.
Can't pick flat girls.
