As an aroace, dating sims are awesome. They’re like getting a little taste of the fun of dating without any of the stuff that makes me want to throw up!
I like dating sims as an alloromantic because they let me indulge in my romantic side without me having to breach the rules that I've set for my dating life, namely that I won't date anyone who I'm not first friends with.
@@adrienstarfaerhuh. Interesting, I’m aroace and I personally wouldn’t do dating sims, but for me I think it’s a bit funny if I were to do it. It’s interesting to hear an allo’s take on this as well! (Also og comment was 7 months ago, and you were 14 minutes ago wow)
i m aroace too and i love playing dating sims time to time but every time i play one i mostly end up the route that you get no one or just get bored after playing for ten min
"Dating....... not a fan" "People like me who do not like people" "But, I do not think I will be casting my line again anytime soon" That, kids, is what we call foreshadowing
Not only is Spooky Pete a professional ghost with a rich history, lots of experience and a grand personality but he even agreed to help out a fellow dating member commit a bank robbery. How could you say "no" to this guy?! HOW?!
I think that so long as Spooky Pete treats Galaga Ship as a person and Galaga Ship is fine robbing banks this threesome will work out perfectly. And it will consider Spooky Pete does treat people as people and we don’t know how far Galaga Ship will go and the Namco High cast generally get into trouble anyways.
Foreshadowing is a narrative device in which a storyteller gives an advance hint of what is to come later in the story. Foreshadowing often appears at the beginning of a story, and it helps develop or subvert the audience's expectations about upcoming events.
@@LocalDorkadoodle I know i've watched that video it's what taught me about aroace and made me realise that i'm probably aroace it's just I feel like everyone knows what the main idea of foreshadowing is
@@H.A.Sproductions Ah! I see. It's a common bit to state the definition of foreshadowing when something occurs that ends up making sense in retrospect. Seeing as Jaiden came out as aroace a few videos later this video is foreshadowing in that aspect. I'm not sure where it initially came from but I know it's a common bit in HBomberGuy's videos.
Forget Sooky Peter because we have now one *NEW* *SHARK* *HUSBANDO!* 34 years when he dies... *Leon* joins the battle!!!!! or *Leon* stealing our hearts!!!!
I wonder if jaiden will ever have a family at some point in her life, or will just be an internet vampire that stays in her room working and playing video games whit no social life because she just dont like to talk to people.
or maybe she already knew about her whole sexuality ordeal but chose to not personally talk about it until just a few days ago. perhaps it's foreshadowing for you, but not her
when i played namco i chose the davesprite rout and the entire time hes like "yeah i know im a videogame im literally a game guide" and then SPOILS THE ENTIRE ENDING ITS SO FUNNY
Y’know, the fact she initially got kicked out of the ghost dating simulator makes a lot more sense now that she came out as aro/ace… in fact that explains why none of them ‘caught her eye’
@@curosaber She really just wanted to be friends with him, more of a squish than a crush (a squish is like a friendship crush, when you really want to be friends with someone)
As a fellow aromantic, I love dating sims because I end up thinking of the dates as like... friendship hangouts. _Super_ friendship hangouts. I don't latch onto the parts about kissing or holding hands or whatever it is people do on dates other than the scheduled activity. I loved Dream Daddy because there's this one rough and tumble guy you can date and you just go out and whittle sculptures together and that's great and I want to know more about this guy and spend barbeques together and co-parent my daughter and get him back to talking to his own kid and just-- FEELINGS. Super Friendship Feelings.
You should check out the demo of a game called "I just want to be single!" It's an anti dating sim where you have to avoid dating anyone. Not sure if there's gonna friendships yet since it's still in development, but a demo is out
I found this great dating sim that lets you literally have friend hangout seshes instead of romance the boy called Our Love Beginnings and Always. It's about growing up with this kid and developing whatever kind of relationship you want! Friendship, smooch, etc.
Jaiden: "Oh I'm not really looking to date or even make friends with any of the ghosts." Also Jaiden: *is shocked when she is shown out of the ghost dating event*
In Speed Dating for Ghosts, if you fail every possible date option, you can go to Hell and try at dating a party demon that's fading away, a vampire lady with severe depression, and a good boy doggo who's looking for his owner. It's so creative and, in some cases, surprisingly introspective.
You don’t have to fail the options. I got it after unlocking all the endings in the normal routes except Gary because I messed up. It just unlocks after you finish the normal routes.
Jaiden: "I want to be alone!" Ghost Receptionist: "...I mean, if that's the case, then you don't need to be here!" *Jaiden leaves the speed dating area* Jaiden: *WAIT--*
Coming here two years later to say that Speed Dating For Ghosts is a genuinely evocative and haunting (pun unintended actually) experience. Riley's romance is QUALITY, and just in general the game is a well-written lesson in peeling back facades and bravado and seeing how remorse is a powerful motivator for change. I'm glad I gave it a shot and weirdly it WAS because of the overly critical review here lol. I was like "... I feel like the surface wasn't very well scratched here, lemme check it out." Glad I did.
After watching Jaiden's video on sexuality, her strongest attraction being towards bank robbery and a literal spaceship begins to make a lot more sense, lmao
Ok so, looking back with a time machine. Jaiden playing a speed dating for ghosts and being more interested in robbing a bank than dating anyone is a HUGE aro/ace mood, as well as her platonic attraction for spooky pete because she thinks he's cool, another HUGE MOOD. Looking back on the old videos it's just like, oooooooh

Dude as an AroAce, the feeling of doing dating sims for the plot is all too real. Like I remember I downloaded a crazy explicit one as a joke, but instead of doing it for the girl’s attention, it just tried to 100% every quest line in the most impractical way as possible. It was so much more fun that way tbh
Same, but for me was Monster Muesume. The plot caught my attention to the point I didn’t even registered that it was supposed to make me feel other things. Huniepop too honestly
I'm pretty sure she's talking about cartoon ghosts. Everyone is acting like this is really deep. The ones who need a microlabel are the people falling in love with cartoon ghosts.
I've watched let's plays of maybe 25 dating sims, and I've found this: 100% of the serious ones are terrible (often hilariously so), and 100% of the parody/oddball ones are brilliant (often hilariously so). I can't think of any other genre that works like that!
I'm aroace and Jaiden explaining how she reacted to the cool shark guy in Speed Dating for Ghosts is an absolute mood. I enjoy dating sims because they're very lighthearted and fun. Plus they allow me to somewhat get the dating experience without having to actually go through the annoyance and discomfort of trying it in real life.
I’ve referred to myself as a ghost in the past. There was stuff in my head which meant I didn’t want commitment and so on. Point is, I’d accept that as a compliment.
I dont like when poeple compliment my appearance because it's something i cant control. "i love your eye color!!!" "thanks" Me in my mind :"i literally did nothing to deserve this praise , i was literally born with this eye color "
The minute Jaiden started talking about a Namco Dating Sim, I immediately said I'd go for the Galaga ship if they were an option. Turns out they were the best one as perdicted. I knew best battle spaceship wouldn't let me down.
I like people with long brain. I have long amount of disl*kes btw. Why? Maybe people with short brain disl*ke because jealous of my long amount of subscr*bers. Please have long brain, dear spe
Odd1sout when he runs out of stories: talks about current life and gives morals Jaiden Animations when she runs out of stories: SO ANYWAY I STARTED GAMING
I’d never thought I’d get to see Sonic, Mario, master chief,imposter,ryu, that one tomato dude from Fortnite,pikachu and Steve all just in the Jaiden animations art style. But not gonna lie the Sonic was made in a really nice though
The sequence intercutting footage of Stephanie's dialogue with Jaiden's responses has to be the best mix of game footage and animation yet. In previous videos, the contrast between the two formats was day and night.
Jaiden: *goes into a speed dating area and tells the receptionist she's not interested in dating or making friends* Receptionist: *kicks her out* Jaiden: *surprised pikachu face*
Looking back at these romantic videos after her latest video is just great. Everything she says is just such a mood, and as someone who has been coming to terms with the fact that I could be ace, it's just awesome to see what experiences people have throughout life, and how many indicators there are in people's past that they never even considered was a early sign of being ace at the time.
Man I love the amount of emotions Jaiden put into Galaga Ship, you can really tell what they’re feeling and their reactions to the conflicts in the story
When it comes to weird dating sims, I really love Monster Prom. There's alot of bizarre stuff that can happen. Once I managed to talk the demon into punching the sun. He literally flies up there and gives the sun a black eye.
dream daddy is the most normal thing she mentioned in this video but there are still some things in that game that lead me to believe the entire thing is just a fever dream
@@MirelurkMaster Aromatic and Asexual. So little to no attraction in any sense. It can sit on a spectum. I am not a great explainer with it. She had a video called "Being not straight" that sums it up pretty well
I think that in the other video, she said that sexuality is more of a sliding scale than an on-off switch, so it simply means she simply finds less of a reason to be sexually attracted to people. So I guess now I may know why I think the girls I met in high school are infinitely more attractive than any celebrity or fashionista I see on TV.
Jaiden then: “If everyone around me was robbing a bank I would do nothing. Avoiding bad things is just in my nature.” Jaiden now: *Robs banks with only the slightest provocation*
I remember watching this when it came out and being like yeah this is basically what I’d do I wanna rob a bank instead of an actual date!… then watching the aroace video and being like Oh cool I support!… then realization hit me lol
You didn't even change a word from Auspiscious's comment from a few hours ago. I guess Jaiden Animations is the type of channel that attracts clout chasers.
I'm pretty sure the reason why Namco High's story is so off the walls insane is because the creative director is Andrew Hussie, who wrote this webcomic you may or may not know called Homestuck
It came across more like aesthetic attraction instead of romantic one. You can think someone is cool or looks pretty in the same way you might enjoy a sunset or a pretty dress. It's a common misconception that aesthetic attraction inherently leads to romantic attraction, but they are different things. So while spookypeter may not have won her heart, she may still admire him. Honestly, I think these dating games may have been an "oooooh, that makes sense" or "oooooh, I get it now" moment for her. And I think that's what's so good about dating simulation games. They might satisfy your need to feel loved, they might help you narrow down your type, they might even just provide fun stories and they might help you realize a lot about yourself. Though I will admit that I would prefer to be given other interesting options in my recommended games list once a while 😅
The first one doesn't even feel like a videogame,, it feels as if jaiden's describing a strange dream she had
FR, I had a dream similar to this XD

Jaiden: "No virtual ghost could win my heart."
Spooky Peter: "Am I a joke to you?"
Spooky Peter is the best
She robbed a bank instead of going on a date

@@mochi_moon true
Nooo spooky Peter :{
I'm aroace and Jaiden explaining how she reacted to the cool shark guy in Speed Dating for Ghosts is an absolute mood. I enjoy dating sims because they're very lighthearted and fun. Plus they allow me to somewhat get the dating experience without having to actually go through the annoyance and discomfort of trying it in real life.
I love how jadan is basically
"want to do something?"
"No"
"Want to do Something interesting? "
"Fine"
Who tf is jadan
How do you mess up her name that bad it's literally the channel name
@@MDClips2464 at least u know what they meant
“Jaiden’s not here for kisses, she’s here for *the opposite* of kisses...which is crime”
👏 👏 👏
Nice a double reverence
Lol this is from the “darkest pokemon game i’ve ever played” XD
WhEeEeEzE
"be gay (or ace), do crime"
Jaiden's type: bank robber
She went with her instinct, Rob a bank, and was rewarded, with Spooky Pete
3:51 "I still feel alive. Just like dissociated" I feel you ghost. I feel you 😢
"Dating... Not a fan" that aged like a fine wine
The finest wine.
Ya dang right! XD
yep i just watched her new video 😅
right
mhm
Better use of foreshadowing than any media I've consumed.
lmao literally 😭
Everyone falls for Plague doctors at the end. They are peak character design.

“Dating simulators are more popular don’t believe me ?” ( u see Minecraft , among us etc .) got me cracking up
Calling someone “pretty hot for a ghost” is the best compliment ever.
I’ve referred to myself as a ghost in the past. There was stuff in my head which meant I didn’t want commitment and so on. Point is, I’d accept that as a compliment.
He should've said drop dead gorgeous.
My girlfriend looked at me weird
I dont like when poeple compliment my appearance because it's something i cant control.
"i love your eye color!!!"
"thanks"
Me in my mind :"i literally did nothing to deserve this praise , i was literally born with this eye color "
*CUZ GHOSTS ARE COLD HOLY FUCK I JUST REALIZED*
The minute Jaiden started talking about a Namco Dating Sim, I immediately said I'd go for the Galaga ship if they were an option. Turns out they were the best one as perdicted. I knew best battle spaceship wouldn't let me down.
a perfect relation-ship
I have a Galaga ship hair clip just so I know that Galaga ship is always with me
“I think I’ve been choosing nothing but all the wrong answers so far.”
Literally me every exam.
hi
Ic you everywhere I go
Sup popular man
YOU
Hey bro i bought u a moustache
"After all the dating simulators I just went through, i think... I feel weird."
Lmaooooo that was perfect
I love how this is slowly becoming a gaming channel of games that people don’t acknowledge
As long as it eventually results in a video about Cubivore I’m cool with that
I am 120% on board with that direction.
@@Ned_Zeppelin_324 Oh my God, YES! I lobe that game and I would LOVE to see Jaiden do a video on Cubivores! That'd be so great!
game grumps
Fine. As long as we get a diamond and Pearl remake vid I’m fine
Jaiden simping for an 8-bit space ship is so hilarious to me
XD ikr
bruh like you dont?
Who wouldn’t?
🤣
😂
Fun Fact: There is an anti-dating sim in production called “I just want to be single!” Where the goal is to not date anyone
That’s cool.
I’m exited for the who le game to release!
Its called Doom Eternal. Doomguy is canonically celibate. He could be aro ace, with the "love of his life" being killin' demons.
How hard could that be? I've been doing it my entire life! *crie*
Finally, something ill ace
I absolutely love playing the Ratchelor, and this video introduced me to it, thank you!
"I feel alive, just dissociated"
I'm sure that hits most of us too...
No not me I understand if it relates to other people tho
I like people with long brain. I have long amount of disl*kes btw. Why? Maybe people with short brain disl*ke because jealous of my long amount of subscr*bers. Please have long brain, dear spe

Another worthy mention is Boyfriend Dungeon, a dungeon crawler where you…date your weapons
Me and my friends had a sleepover, and for 2 days we played (and completed) boyfriend dungeon
It was fun XD
And it's a neat and simple Dungeon Crawler, too. I actually think the characters are quite well written as well.
:0, bruh, i need to find it
As crazy as it sounds it’s actually a lot of fun to play
Bruh
I wanna play now
Out of compleat curiosity!
1:00 AUSTRALIA FOR LIIIIIIIIIIIIFE!

Odd1sout when he runs out of stories: talks about current life and gives morals
Jaiden Animations when she runs out of stories: SO ANYWAY I STARTED GAMING
Both.
Both is good.
Honestly I enjoy Jaden more, I think her stuff is far more interesting
Galaga ship and Jaiden are now a ship. We ship her with a ship. Shipping the ship.
Now we shipping ship ships.
the ship with the ship has sailed *furiously writes fanfiction*

I used the ship to ship the ship.
Oh no
What a rollercoaster!!!
I love galaga

You mean ship. Hehe

@Logan Roof not funny
I’d never thought I’d get to see Sonic, Mario, master chief,imposter,ryu, that one tomato dude from Fortnite,pikachu and Steve all just in the Jaiden animations art style. But not gonna lie the Sonic was made in a really nice though
At 0:18 if you’re wondering
And Tetris block
What about Monika?
The sequence intercutting footage of Stephanie's dialogue with Jaiden's responses has to be the best mix of game footage and animation yet. In previous videos, the contrast between the two formats was day and night.
Babe over hear
Jaiden: *goes into a speed dating area and tells the receptionist she's not interested in dating or making friends*
Receptionist: *kicks her out*
Jaiden: *surprised pikachu face*
XD
@Logan Roof Please tell me how Jaiden's anhorexia is relevant here at all
@@PlayerZeroStart they are just a stupid kid who wants to be emo and edgy, ignore them
Looking back at these romantic videos after her latest video is just great. Everything she says is just such a mood, and as someone who has been coming to terms with the fact that I could be ace, it's just awesome to see what experiences people have throughout life, and how many indicators there are in people's past that they never even considered was a early sign of being ace at the time.
My thoughts exactly.
Why she change the thumb nails
@@adrianherrera8958 I'm not sure but they look nice and refreshing so I'm not gonna complain lol
This being suggested after her aro/ace video is comedy at its finest
This video is a whole mood, lol
Man I love the amount of emotions Jaiden put into Galaga Ship, you can really tell what they’re feeling and their reactions to the conflicts in the story
At this point this is starting to become a “Jaiden plays weird games” channel.
And I am here for it.
Perhaps Jaiden would get into the games review vibe. Do you think she’ll play Ride to Hell?
@@GreenTomas2372 Probably but I still want her to play payday 2, plus she did say she wanted to rob another bank
@@yourlocalmethaddict then GTA online would be her thing
Same
Same lol
When it comes to weird dating sims, I really love Monster Prom. There's alot of bizarre stuff that can happen. Once I managed to talk the demon into punching the sun. He literally flies up there and gives the sun a black eye.
dream daddy is the most normal thing she mentioned in this video but there are still some things in that game that lead me to believe the entire thing is just a fever dream
Yes that one is so fun! Especially with other people, and your all competing for the same person xD
@@AureliaKai I usually play alone, so I haven't had that yet. But I made Scott the furry king, so I get that going for me, which is fine.

The "well I guess I can't be myself!" line was gold
The hell's that?
@@MirelurkMaster Aromatic and Asexual. So little to no attraction in any sense. It can sit on a spectum. I am not a great explainer with it. She had a video called "Being not straight" that sums it up pretty well
Granted, wanting to be alone doesn't necessarily mean that yiu aren't interested in romance, it just means you aren't interested in people.
2:33 Houston? We have a rizzler here!
3:56 Relatable
4:44 I think she found her date!
5:46 OH, DIDN'T EXPECT THAT!
Jaiden: *makes a dating episode*
Also Jaiden: *makes an episode on how she is aroace*
Perfectly balanced as all things should be
I think that in the other video, she said that sexuality is more of a sliding scale than an on-off switch, so it simply means she simply finds less of a reason to be sexually attracted to people. So I guess now I may know why I think the girls I met in high school are infinitely more attractive than any celebrity or fashionista I see on TV.
Jaiden: "makes video about being aroace"
also Jaiden when she sees the galaga ship: "Perfect in every way"
@@grahamskaggs4376 Galaga ship transcends all sexual/romantic identities and is attractive to everyone
@@aycc-nbh7289 SAMEE aaa it all makes sense now!!!

Galaga ship is a god amongst gods, the finest of the fine, the most beautiful creature on this godforsaken plane of existence.
Jaiden replicated the art style of the Ghost speed dating game so well, I literally thought the clips from the game were animated by her!

Corruption arc?
@@anneblackwood9013
Yeah
“I didn’t technically go on a date. I robbed a bank.”
Me: No, no, that checks out
Same thing
“Are you ready to commit?” “Like a crime or a relationship?”

Man id rather rob a bank than go on a date

Sooo, what are you saying oc?
Jaiden: “I was best friends with Chief from Animal Crossing.”
Me: Ah. A cultured individual.
Yes very much
Lol I was best friends with chief and Kyle
It broke me when they moved out

You didn't even change a word from Auspiscious's comment from a few hours ago. I guess Jaiden Animations is the type of channel that attracts clout chasers.

Go on 👀
I'm so glad this game has a demo.

Omg I thought i was the only one who heard it 😂
I'm pretty sure the reason why Namco High's story is so off the walls insane is because the creative director is Andrew Hussie, who wrote this webcomic you may or may not know called Homestuck
He wrote the NAMCO DATING SIM???
That explains a lot
Ok Who keeps letting the people who were involved in Homestuck out of their cage?
His name is hussie?????

I'm just surprised that she's a Fygar type...
Also at 8:31 , what is that voice. It’s cute
My type: [TYPE]
This was a foreshadowing of her sexuality
The greatest line of any dating sim:
“When the cherry petals of Magic Romance Academy are in bloom, anthyding can hadplen.” Because that is so true.
The gravity falls dating sim episode
omg yes
Everyone remembers when they predicted DDLC
I immediately read it in sooss voice.
I love that
“No virtual ghosts could win my heart”
Spookypeter: Am I a joke to you?
It came across more like aesthetic attraction instead of romantic one. You can think someone is cool or looks pretty in the same way you might enjoy a sunset or a pretty dress. It's a common misconception that aesthetic attraction inherently leads to romantic attraction, but they are different things. So while spookypeter may not have won her heart, she may still admire him.
Honestly, I think these dating games may have been an "oooooh, that makes sense" or "oooooh, I get it now" moment for her. And I think that's what's so good about dating simulation games. They might satisfy your need to feel loved, they might help you narrow down your type, they might even just provide fun stories and they might help you realize a lot about yourself. Though I will admit that I would prefer to be given other interesting options in my recommended games list once a while 😅
@@BeepBoopBee ok.
None could *romantically* win her heart. Admiration and hype for a celebrity of sorts is different, tbf.
