I played it for a day or two. It was fun at first but the novelty quickly wore off and it became very tedious. What kills it for me is that I don't actually feel like there's proper player interaction with the game, mainly due to being restricted to half a screen and not being able to see the opponent clearly. All I'm doing boils down to dodging bullets while holding the shot key and occassionally bombing to clear more bullets. It's not a danmaku duel where I'm consciously dodging an enemy barrage while returning my own fire at a clear enemy, it basically feels like a glorified series of survival spells where I just dodge around until the AI decides to give me the win. After I had 2 runs where I lost on Eiki with her down to half a heart I decided that was enough and dropped it. From what I later read in the threads the AI is rigged to survive until some time passes so I don't feel like I made the wrong decision.

It's not a bad game, but you really need a different mindset to enjoy it and I don't have it. I won't deny that I don't have a great grasp on the mechanics and how to dodge the later bosses, but the game didn't manage to keep my interest long enough for me to care about learning it properly.

I mean, from Touhou 10 onwards you can't change your max lives from the options anymore. So you can either git gud now or eat shit later and be forced to git gud while also having to adapt to all the gameplay changes that come with the new engine.

I actually really like PoDD and PoFV.
But lately I mostly play human vs youkai matches, they're good for practice since there is a lot of dodging of random bullets.
I love dueling with Yuuka and Komachi.
>until the AI decides to give me the win
That is probably the biggest problem, most times particularly at lunatic is seems very random when you win.
I would really like to see a similar game but improved.

I don't feel like to play UFO now. So I will start grinding hards and extras instead. How hard is Mokou, because obviously she's harder than Ran, but in her fight I can't reach as far as I do with Yukari.<span class="fortune" style="color:#7f11ec">

>>37861955
She's not that hard overall. I'd say she's easier than Yukari, IN has the huge advantage of spell practice so you can figure out how to handle all the cards at your own leisure and the rest is just getting good at the stage and nons through actual runs. You also have plenty of lives and the last spell deathbombs to make getting hit less of an issue. She starts off fairly simple but ramps up at the middle. Like the other anon said, the 8th nonspell and spell are notoriously difficult. Hollow Giant Woo and Hourai Doll can also be somewhat troublesome even with practice.

Flan took me 1 year after Mokou...
Bombs are much easier with border team, the whole stage is very easy, so you can get there with a lot of resources and bomb all the stupid hard nons.
A lot of her late spells are memorization, like the one where you spin around her or the survival or the final where you go in circle.

>>	Anonymous Fri Dec 24 17:27:38 2021 No.37862673 >>37862230 Flan is pretty barebones by modern standards… although I guess more of her attacks come down to straight dodging so if you’re better with memorization you might struggle a bit more.

If someone is asking: EoSD gives you a life if you reach certain high score (i.e. 2 million of points). PCB (and IN) gives you a life if you collect certain number of point items (点) (i.e. 200 items). Collecting "points" is need to get lives in PCB, but the hi-score itself is useless regarding that.

Congrats anon!! Feels much better doesn't it?
>>37881515
Yes but don't do this during spell cards.
Keeping the border during spells will raise the value of the cherry items, meaning they will help you get more borders for less cherry items.
>>37881621
The score itself only gives you extends on EoSD, MoF and HSiFS. In PCB and IN, it is the amount of point items what gives you extends like collecting 50 of them.

I know I'm late as shit but in case you're still here, do yourself a favor and don't ever play the console versions online. Vanilla AoCF netcode is an abomination of fighting game netcode which in itself isn't a very high standard (especially just a few years ago when the game first released). PC AoCF has a fanmade patch that makes the game somewhat playable, but last I checked that's not available in consoles so it's not worth trying.

Is there anyone out there who has a copy of CtC that has the complete english patch? Not the one from Moriya, which doesn't have endings and a bunch of extra stuff. That was patched with an earlier version and later patches were complete but the original drive host is dead now.

And with that, Imperishable Night Normal is CONQUERED. Solo shots turned out better than I expected except a couple stinkers. While some patterns are tougher without human/youkai, I really appreciated the consistency of solo shots. Especially during Reimu fight with her balls flashing in an out of existence when you use team shots. I wish ZUN made another game with such shots variety instead of stupid modular shots we've been getting for three games in a row.

Is this your first Touhou game? Sure, they surprise you the first time, but once you've seen how they work, they're incredibly easy for final boss cards. The exception being her penultimate one that's just a big mess of bullets, but that's static anyway IIRC.

If you ended up with two lives to spare, you should try Hard.

Why does everyone say TD is easy? I only missed around three or four life pieces, didn't die, and I still only entered the final boss with 6 lives. Any other game I would be maxed out. The game has to be routed like UFO but doesn't give you even close to the amount of lives UFO gives. Is there something I'm missing?

>Which spells, non spells, or stages that you recommend skipping or learning?
Only you can answer that, different players find different parts of games difficult. Think about what kills you the most in runs. Experiment around in practice mode without bombing and you'll realise which sections you have trouble with. The better you get, the less such sections there'll be. As you play the games more you'll start to naturally see which sections are worth learning, and which are too risky that even with practice it's better to bomb just to be safe.
>Also which characters do guys recommend?
Anything that isn't solo Reimu, solo Alice or solo Sakuya is fun to play.

at which game were you stuck the longest before 1ccing? i did 6-7-8 in a couple of days and 10 in around a week, but have been battling SA for around two months now with over 100 attempts and double the total playtime compared to any other game after looking it through in player stats

Once the fairies start to move towards you, you need to move upwards, close to Orin and shoot her a bit before having to go around her to gain some space again. Once the fairies close on you, go around her again. You can also redirect the fairies to the top, as shown in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXll7w5F8lQ (2:08).

Easy patterns on the first 5 stages doesn't mean shit when the final boss has tough patterns, and you have to play all 5 stages perfectly to stand a chance. She fucked me over so often that I'm not even sure if she's hard or I suck. But I will admit I might be out of line talking about this.

I think you just need to practice a bit. Her non-spells are awful and I always bombed/tranced the third and fourth ones, but the rest isn't too bad. Rising Sun and Guse Kannon are basically free, Chaotic Dance just requires you to stay on target, and Falling Stars is one the easiest final cards, at least on Normal. Of the others, Twelve Levels and Seventeen Articles have a lot of room for RNG bullshit, and Armillary Sphere is fast and can be deceptive, but I think three "tough cards" out of seven is very fair for a final boss.
As for the rest of the game, when I was going for a 1cc I would reset on a death anywhere before stage 5, but budget at least one death to either Futo or some of those stage parts if I was out of bombs. You definitely don't have to be perfect. But since you already are, six lives should be way more than enough for Miko, just don't panic.

What character? Youmu has a lot of speedkill potential for her non spells, even though you have ot unfocus fire for a little at the bottom of the screen. Marisa is also great for her 'XXC' mechanic, where hugging a boss, using 2 bombs (1 for a each new attack), will give you enough to trance another attack. If you enter stage 6 with around 2 lives and 1 bomb, you don't have to dodge a thing with Marisa. Reimu is also good if you don't want to cheese the everliving fuck out of Miko.
I'm not sure what difficulty level you're playing, so I'll give you some general tips for Miko. You can start the first spell hugging Miko for trance gauge, you can spend a lot of the third spell hugging Miko for trance if you're going for a speedkill route. The washing machine spell is also great for getting some gauge, just remember to spin with the bullets. Miko's final should also give enough for a full trance if you play aggresively. When you get to the rage phase of final, pop a trance, hug her, then slowly stream down when your trance ends. You should kill her before you reach the bottom of the screen. If you find that you can't do that, you can do quick dashes from the bottom of the screeen to right below her and back to avoid the bullets.
Bomb Miko's penult, it's RNG bullshit. Bomb it twice if you need to. Getting through her penult should mean the clear.
Also, for stage 6 itself, bomb spirits appear at the end the fairy's tails, so you usually want to slowly stream, wait until they appear, trance and kill the spirits (but not the fairies, because the spirits dissapear when the fairies die)

That's good enough. If you don't mind starting with a retro game, a strongly recommended one is the fourth game, LLS.
You can get it easily from here, with no setting up needed. This is a pack with the first five games and a ready to use emulator. You can choose between dosbox-x and neko project 21, but I'd recommend the former.
https://spaztron64.github.io/th98tuc_site/index.html
The keys are Z to shoot, X to bomb and Shift to move slowly for more accuracy.
If you have fun with it you can try the other four games or move to the windows games by searching for the all-in-one pack on nyaa, but try getting a 1cc first.

I get why he wouldn't want to bother with the higher difficulties yet since, for me at least, it always made more sense to rather play a different shot type/game/extra instead of taking the time to essentially play the same game with a few new gimmicks, harder patterns and more bullets.

I'd play lunatic or hard if this were my usual skill level, but I'm still very inconsistent. This was my second 1cc on this game after beating it yesterday with reimuB with 9 misses and doing four failed runs with reimuA today, after which I go from one extreme to the other and nail almost everything.
I could probably play and beat the games on hard but I prefer running through all of them on normal first so I can read the stories, before coming back for the harder difficulties.

The SDM characters were first facing left when I faced left, and right when I faced right.
Also wouldn't like to forget, once dreamt I had a spellcard called "Ultimate Blue and Red Destruction" and Hecatia also had her own slightly different version of the same card.

>Touhou Project Scoreboard has suspended the function of uploading replays since January 3rd, 2022. Currently all scoreboards are only available for reference.
>The reasons for the suspension are below:

>Some malicious users posted a number of fake replays with other player's name. Additionally, they posted other player's personal information on the comment text. (These posts have already been deleted)
>Due to the evolution of cheating tools, the online scoreboards based on the replay files only have become meaningless in recent situation.

New player here. I have a theory in that you should avoid moving diagonally as it adds an additional displacement vector which makes it too hard for your brain to calculate the relative motion between your character and a projectile. How true is this?

Sometime you have to move both in a vertical direction and in an horizontal direction, so you should learn.
When I have to move diagonally I move in microsteps, like up and right in rapid succession or like holding up and pressing right in rapid succession.

It's pretty good for a beginner. You managed to clear 2/3 of the game without using a continue, though stage 5 and 6 are usually longer in terms of boss battles since they have more spell cards. Your next goal should be practicing the game so you can do the early stages consistently. If you can reach stage 5 with 4-5 extra lives, you should have enough of a buffer to get through the rest of the game, assuming you're not dying with bombs in stock.

I think I used all bombs before dying for the most part, except when I got caught off-guard thinking I was gonna dodge.

Feel free to treat bombs as you get out of jail free cards. Bombs are resources and resources exist to be used. Getting a 1cc is an accomplishment enough for a new player, and there's no shame in using bombs to achieve that. Obviously, the better you get at dodging the less you'll need to use them. If you want to get a feel for your skill, play stages in practice mode and refrain from bombing. Basically the same advice as >>37947669

Most of the boss aren't that bad except the Stage 4 bosses. If you prefer bosses with dense asf bullets with RNG, but slow bullets and immobile boss, go for team Border or team Ghost. If you prefer fast moving bullets and agile boss but nothing RNG with less dense bullet use team Scarlet. Team Magician is kinda hard but Malice cannon can carry you hard if abused.

The goal isn't to fill out a chart, it's to have fun playing the games and accomplishing what you can. If you want something to work towards, you can start with getting a 1cc in every game and go from there. Some Extras are pretty doable, others are hopelessly difficult IMO.
My goal has been to see all the endings and Extra dialogues, but that's proven to be impossible, so I satisfy myself with just the endings.

you can probably go from not playing shmups much if at all to a normal 1cc of an easy touhou game in 50 hours top and noticeably less, the better you are. that's not much different from the time people spend in RPG games let alone multiplayer games. The main difference is that in these games with arcade design philosophy all of that time is spent getting good at a relatively "short" game and figuring it out, so you naturally might feel like it's too repetitive and you aren't going anywhere.

50 hours per game is a lot, that's the problem, especially considering that there are 20+ games. i really enjoyed the first 1 touhou but mostly because once i beat a stage perfectly i simply quicksaved and then tryharder the next one, but i don't think i can do that with the windows games

No, once you've done one, others will take much less time, since you'll have built up experience and transferable skills.
As for settings, just leave everything default. If you're unsure, you can delete the config files.
And if you really like filling out checklists that much, make your own. That's what most people do.

If you want a mostly complete experience that won't take extremely long, just fill every Normal box from every game with all the shot types, and try to do the same with the Extra boxes eventually, maybe after you've done with the rest if you can't clear them right away. This way you'll get to read all the story dialogue.
Always keep the lives and bombs on their default setting, there's even a button for that.

>>38195932
As terminology, NMNB is as literal as it gets. If you didn't miss or bomb then you have a NMNB. It's not always the same as Perfect because the latter implies any other game specific restriction also applies to your run. Not really relevant in SA because there are no mechanics like that in the game, but in something like PCB, TD or HSiFS saying NMNB is not the same as NMNBNBB, NMNBNT or NMNBNR respectively.

That said, I've seen quite a few people include FS as part of the requirements for a Perfect. That usually isn't a problem since most people who can NMNB a stage can do so by capturing every card (which is usually the optimal way of doing it), but in a game like IN for example getting hit during Imperishable Shooting doesn't count as a miss, and yet failing to capture it would make a Perfect run invalid even though it's still a NMNB. Under those requirements you would have an ExNN but maybe not a Perfect yet. I don't know if that's agreed upon universally though, I've only seen people use that but not sure if there are more official rules for the category.

It changes nothing in terms of story. It's simply the way the game is meant to be played cause adding bombs or lives makes the challenge quite a bit easier than what people normally deal with at that level of difficulty, so it makes the 1cc runs "not legit" even though you will get the good endings anyway. Also, starting from th10 you can't even increase the number of lives so you shouldn't get used to it to begin with.

Playing 17.5 for the first time and so far my feelings are mixed to say the least. Done Reimu and Marisa so far and Marisa was infuriating to control at times.

A game all about using iframes in an unorthodox platformer-like system sounds interesting to me but playing actually playing it…it just isnt coming together for me so far. And most of the hard spells are just a puzzle where you find a loop of moves that can you invulnerable.

It also just feels unpolished in general, though it’s hard for me to say why exactly.

Hoping it’ll grow on me over time.

The bomb system is awful, besides being OP there's no downside to bombing most of the time, it takes out the resource management aspect of traditional bombs and aesthetically they look the same.

The hitboxes feel weird if you've played the previous games for a long time, and it relies to much on pellet bullets and spellcards that simply throw a bunch of stuff your way for pure mechanical skill dodge rather than reading.

Also lots of stuff is hard to see with the new HD textures.

I disagree, there aren't that many sections with pellet bullets, and it's only tedious during stage 4. Also, previous games had those kind of spellcards too.

Yeah no problem. Not like I want to deter you from playing the game online either, though. For what it's worth, I actually like the game quite a bit and the couple times I got to play it online with people I had fun with it. It's just that you really, really want to use the PC patch if you intend to play the game online.
Doesn't help that it's kinda hard to find games here and even the main community seems rather small, although apparently not totally dead. And when you don't have the privilege of choosing people that have very good connections with you then netcode becomes an even bigger factor.

Save up for max level release, don't hesitate to use bombs to safely graze build up release gauge faster. Use the max level releases on patterns with tons of bullets to get high PiV. If you manage to max out PiV then just release as often as possible on the boss to cancel bullets. Cancelled bullets give score based on PiV too I think.

Jesus Christ.
Anyway, for 9, with the old hardpatch, you need to install Cirno.ttf to your system fonts directory, not just leave it in the game directory. But if you're using thcrap, that's completely unrelated, so unless you're doing something else stupid like running thcrap on the hardpatched executable instead of the vanilla one, I don't know why it would do that.

Alright, I finally got the 1CC
https://files.catbox.moe/z43g0m.rpy
I'm disappointed that I couldn't reach 300mil despite getting it on a failed run, but a clear is still a clear. Man, I can't believe I never thought of Releasing on both of Aunn's last two spells. That probably played a huge part in this 1CC but I think I also got better a routing. Thanks anon

SA is so tiresome, it's like it wasn't designed with normal difficulty in mind, too many times I've rushed to the item collection line to be snipped by an enemy that appears from the sides at the speed of fuck, the thing is that there's not enough bullets either to trigger item collection or you have to do absurd movement gymnastics to trigger it, really it's a game that doesn't open itself until you've given a fair share of memorization.

Okay.

I’m running it on the original unpatched jap version.

>I don't know why it would do that.
Well, thanks anyway.

How I'm supposed to answer.
