i jest but in all seriousness hatoful boyfriend's reputation as a pigeon dating simulator for streamers to laugh at is my roman empire. it's sort of like if undertale's only legacy was as an obscure shitpost game with no substance or commentary or emotional depth and nuance. i mean. okay the two games aren't really comparable but that's what it feels like. To Me.
when i constantly tell people to play hatoful boyfriend i do it completely seriously. it's very dear to my heart. it's not perfect but nothing in this world is. it's a good game and i wish one of these days a big streamer would play it in its entirety and it'd get really popular and i'd finally have more people to talk to about nanaki's insane doomed yaoi situationship
oh no the normal dating sim portion is very good as well. hatoful boyfriend literally wouldn't be the game that it is if it didn't have the normal dating sim portion. when i praise hatoful i am praising all parts of it
just a Bit, yeah <- said like this doesn't make me want to blow up every single parody "dating sim" creator who's ever lived
