You never finished a single Touhou game, you just read the manga and save the art.

It's the opposite. I love the games but have zero interest in exploring the lore or the characters beyond the little I see in the games. It's not QUITE enough to make me interested in learning more.

I haven't played or read traditional Touhou in like 10 years.

It's the other way around. I (struggle) finish the games but I often don't finish the manga or other similar media. I also replay the games whenever another game is about to get released which is something I rarely do for other games.

TH6 is a classic. The game is super memorable and fun. It's also the last game with PC-98 style danmaku but you can experience it in windows. But I agree it's not his best.

[Anonymous No.]

So far I have at least one normal 1cc in each windows game up to LoLK. All so I can have context when reading official works and non-h doujinshi.
>>37785774
Any reason you like PCB so much? I'm biased toward it because of the winter theme.

TH12 is mediocre at best
TH13 is great, just filters the fuck out of me and most people

How often did you play in those 5 years?
Took me 2 weeks of daily practice to normal 1cc PCB as a newcomer. But I think that had less to do with skill and more my autistic level of motivation.

I used to have the same problem until I listen to anons in gameplay thread to try Sakuya A. One CCd it in first try(extra lives), busted character. Other option is Marisa B since her bomb is a skip button, but gonna have a hard time with Youmu especially the second last Spellcard since she moved around a lot

[Anonymous No.]

How many of you use extra lives? I’m surprised to see so many people cheating. It makes me wonder if the anons who post their 1cc charts in the gameplay thread use extra lives as well.

I've watched the full gameplay of all games, some more than once. I'm just really bad at the genre, and I don't feel like practicing either.
Also, I like being able to see spell cards in detail, rather than concentrating 100% on dodging things. Some are so beautiful and fit the music so well that I go back to the videos to see them again.

Actually, the trancelike state that dodging a hard pattern puts you in goes better with the music than anything else. I highly recommend you work at 1ccing just one game (anything but LLS because that one's basically free), it's an eye opener.

Ok, anon. I'll try PCB, it's the easiest after LLS, right? Also, Yukarin is there, so bonus points.

I will practice 2h everyday for 2 weeks, that's the best I can currently do. Wish me luck.

[Anonymous No.]

>>37854396
>I'll try PCB, it's the easiest after LLS, right?
Depends. PCB is 'easy' due to Cherry borders and Alice is among the easiest Stage 3 boss in the series. However, Prismrivers, Youmu and Yuyuko will cuck you hard from your 1CC attempt. Also if you never touch PCB before, watch out for her 'true' final Spell.
IN is also easy due to the death bomb delay, and the low tier bosses will teach you basic micro dodging, while the highest boss will train you for criss cross bullets. Also Stage 5 bos's is really easy once you understand how she works. The stage four bosses however, are fucking pieces of shit and will consume a lot of your lives and bombs especially if your characters are bad against them(Team Magician is a pain to use against Stage 4 boss)
MoF bosses are quite hard, you will probably need to bomb as early as Stage 2. Stage 3 boss will force you to bomb her last two Spells, and Stage 4 will force you to bomb spam throughout the Stage. The Stage 4 boss? Dont even bother trying to capture her Spells. But its good for beginners since it trains you to bomb in sense of danger, and since it gives you an infinite amount of bombs, you can just bomb all you want. (Also Marisa B has a glitch that makes the 1CC attempt a landslide)
TD's spells are easy, but the resources are very limited. I honestly think its the worst among the beginner friendly 2hu game, since it deters you from bombing, which is not good for beginners.
