Okay, not a request but since you've played all of cheritz's games: which would you recommend, dandelion or nameless? also this is a shot in the dark but do either have romancable female characters bc that would be the number one factor in swaying my decision lmao. Which has better female characters in your opinion? And sorry if any of this is obvious, I don't really know anything about either of the games... Thanks~~
First things first, neither game has romancable female characters. Jaehee is the first in Cheritz’s games! However, Nameless has 2 female side characters, the MCs best friends: Soi and Shinbi. They have a lot of screen time, but not as much as you would probably hope and neither of them are romancable.
Secondly, whichever game style you prefer most is what should ultimately sway your opinion. Nameless is 100% a Visual Novel, there isn’t much interaction at all like there is in MysMe or Dandelion.
Dandelion is much more hands on and (for me) that helps keep my interest. It’s a heavily stat-managed game so you need to manage your romance levels with the characters and also the MCs own stat levels (like stress, beauty, pressure, etc) and each is very important!
Both games have a pretty short play time for a single route. I think if you really sit there and focus on finishing you should finish a route from beginning to end in 3-4 hours. Of course not everyone has that much time to spend on a game but if you set aside time each day I’m sure you would finish a route in a week or less.
Nameless definitely has the better art style as well, but Dandelion has more character development. Of course MysMe takes the cake for both of these things, so if you’re expecting another MysMe prepare to be disappointed. Dandelion came out in 2010 and Nameless in 2012 and both are PC games so the art isn’t as high-res as MysMe.
And like MysMe, there’s a certain way you should play through the routes of Nameless to get the best flow of the story. This doesn’t matter with Dandelion, as long as you get all the good endings you unlock the secret ending.
Unless you want more information on either game, I think this should help you in deciding! Tell me which one you end up choosing, we can talk about it as you play! ^^
