So how is SWR? Never got to play IaMP. Better? Worse? Worth trying out? Are the IaMP players jumping boat to this?

I personally prefer SWR to IaMP, simply because the final boss doesn't just ass-rape you with her last spell card like Suika does. Also, the new Spell Card system is very novel, although having only twenty cards to play around with for six or so stages is pretty rough on a player (like me) who used to spam them whenever they had a chance in the last game.
On another note, does anyone notice that the framerate for the other Touhou games drops to single digits after playing SWR or IaMP? Or is it just my computer?

I haven't cleared story mode at all yet, but I've only attempted once, due to lag when burning stuff.
I guess it's only a matter of time until the characters are ported to MUGEN, I'll get some lolshots when Reisen or Suika are released.

Suika is without a doubt the strangest character in Touhou, probably the most lulzy too.

Longiner: The girl on her side is Suika, an oni with a penchant for getting drunk every chance she gets. Case in point - her blocking animation is her taking a swig from that bottle of hers.
Yet another subject: Touhou 11. It's going to be similar to 10, as in two characters (Reimu and Marisa) with three different styles. The thing about it, though, is that each style corresponds to a certain youkai from previous games. While I get Reimu's partners and two of Marisa's partners, I don't get her third partner. Why the heck would Marisa choose that kappa, of all people? I mean, sure, the two other slots are fine with Alice and Patchouli, as they're all magicians (and Alice was her partner in 8, as well, so one of Reimu's is Yukari), but couldn't she have found a better partner than Nitori?

Nitori is, imo, the 5th epic win character.
On the subject of SA, I'd be much happier if it had more playables, like IN. I think what's made the series good so far is the varying styles between the games, and how older ones are revisited now and then. I think it's about time for an engaging, large-scale story.

[quote="Slain087"] 10 compelling reasons why I'll never pass Lunatic difficulty in any other game than PoFV. [/quote] <--- WHAT THE HELL <.<
I want to beat ANY Touhou game with a good ending, but I'm too lazy to train. ;____;
Easy and Lunatic are the only difficulties that really count.
I always clear easy entirely before attempting anything else.
I always clear easy entirely before attempting anything else.
So I returned to Perfect Cherry Blossom after some training in Mountain of Faith. I passed the first three stages without a death, then got promptly killed by the Prismrivers, obliterated Youmu, and managed to survive until Yuyuko's second-to-last Spell Card without using a Continue. I had to burn off two Continues in the end, and I had to sacrifice all twelve of my bombs that the Continue gave me (I was using Sakuya) just to survive to the end. And then I got hit by the absolutely last bullet that was sent out. Still, if I can just get past the Prismrivers without losing a life, I might be able to 1cc PCB.
A bit earlier this week, I also retried Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, because it's the only game so far I haven't cleared at all yet (again, damn you Sakuya and your knives!). I got hit... by Icicle Fall...
After forty-five tries, I finally, finally, cleared a Last Word (Lunatic Red Eyes). Twenty of the attempts were me running into the exact same blue bullet. Ten were me being unable to reach the edge of the bullets before they returned. The other fourteen were stupid as hell mistakes, such as me actually backing into a suppository, smashing against the walls of red balls, etc.
Cleared the second one after just six tries (Blind Nightbird); of course, only counting the ones I did this session (if you add them all, it comes out to about twenty-something, so eh). Youmu focused pwns bosses in the blink of an eye.
Unseasonable Butterfly Storm is hard. Remind me next time to not use Alice, Marisa, or Youmu. Maybe Reimu or Yukari.
SA could also be good training... I've heard it's pretty much the hardest of the Windows games so far.
Aya's speed, and Suika's auto-collect anywhere will be very useful to me (assuming, that is, I actually want to stop firing for a few seconds in that maelstrom). Patchouli's formation change should also work nicely.

Yes, but they're not danmaku shooters. <_<"
Phantasmagoria of Flower View should be your choice then, since there are no bad endings. Just go and kill the Judge of Paradise and get your ending. Or if you want a whole number installment, I'd say Mountain of Faith - although if you do have to Continue, you'll have to start the stage all over again, and the Spell Card Mountain of Faith is killer even on Easy. Maybe Imperishable Night, because as long as the time doesn't go past 5 AM, you'll get a normal ending - and if you manage to get to the Last Spell segment of the FinalB boss, you'll get the good ending.

vwoot. Finally cleared Embodiment of Scarlet Devil. Remilia's last Spell Card is disturbingly easy, compared to her last normal attack and Sakuya. I cleared her with only one life used... Sakuya took off three. Damn Misdirection. Still, I was left at the end with no Continues, no lives in reserve, and a single bomb.
I'm not going to do the PC-98 games, though. The Windows games give me enough of a headache.

Ugh. Give me a bunch of tiny bullets in a random pattern, and it's likely I'll pass through them. But give me slightly larger bullets in a predetermined pattern, and I totally freeze up.
Curse you, Lily White, and the devil you made a deal with to eternally revive. Curse you Sakuya, and your formations that have huge hitboxes.
In other news, I seem to be getting better at Mountain of Faith. I don't die until the crows start coming. Then I just hemorrhage lives. Also, LaserMari is essentially a condensed Final Spark at 3 options.

A random thought - if they do teams in the future (like Imperishable Night), I wonder if they aren't going to do a team of Sanae and Reimu. Granted, Sanae isn't a youkai, but still, it would be interesting if they have the two shrine maidens together.
That would be interesting, although I insta-main anyone who uses LAZORZ(Unless there's a moonrabbit present).
Also, It appears as though SA lets you warp from one side of the screen to the other, like Mario Bros and Pacman, and the ball thing works differently.

That warp thing is an attribute of ReimuA. IIRC, ReimuB has auto-collect anywhere, and ReimuC has WTF speed. MarisaA has 8 options instead of 4, MarisaB has formation changes, and I don't remember what MarisaC has.
Oh, and I recall a small glitch in the demo. You could hide in the bottom corner, off the screen, and just ignore every attack. Granted, you'll have a pitifully low score, but it's a way to get a clear. ZUN will probably fix it though for the full version.

When an IaMP battle takes four and a half minutes just to win the first round (at 60FPS by the way), one of two things could have happened. One, they utterly suck, or two, they so utterly rule that they can't get any good hits on each other.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXbVW0KQTkw I kinda pity the guy who played as Meiling. Literally flying around everywhere must have broke his fingers.
And I thought osu! was the only game to be able to drain my arm's power. Trying not to die too much in my first IN Hard run has my left arm (my shooting/bombing arm) aching like mad. I made it to the Reisen battle, but got game over'd during her last Spell Card. And somehow, I managed to cap Shoot the Moon ingame with Youmu, but can't do so with Marisa in Spell Practice.

Reimu and Yukari. And I'm convinced it would've been easier if I used a keyboard that allows at least 5 simultaneous button presses(This one gives in at 3).
ONLY 3?! So that means you can't even use diagonals when focusing fire? Sheesh... Get a pad or something. No wonder you kept phailing in the other games.

I'm just trying to imagine your expression during some of those Spell Cards.
And, if you want, my own replay, just taken now. It'll be on the bottom of the Replays. Again, like Longiner's, rename the extension to .rpy. I look like a berserker compared to you, Longiner.

Slain, yours looked like the AI on PoFV, I didn't know it was possible to move so precisely.
And loginer's looked surprised at everything, I noticed at a lot of spell cards, you stopped firing and moved back before anything had been shot.
I just had a go, but I used Marisa and Alice.
If you look closely, you'll notice how distracted I am from Reisen's and Kaguya's battles (and the first half of the Reimu/Marisa stage), because of the epic music.

Something about your play kind of bugged me, neo@lex. Do you use counterbombs at all? Or were you distracted by the battle music too much to notice?
I'm actually pretty surprised at the different play styles between the three of us. I just move wherever I think the next enemy wave is, trying as much as possible to stay near the POC line (and besides that, just hoard Time orbs like there's no tomorrow). I'm prone to making ⑨ level mistakes, though (like trying to get to the POC for non-existent items at Fire Rat's Robe).
Loginer seems to prefer the bottom of the screen, playing tight, or maybe that's because of his keyboard, only allowing 3 strokes. Surprising he didn't get hit with that first Master Spark, though.
neo@lex seems to enjoy being at the middle of the screen, but usually doesn't go higher, and lets Points just fall out of reach. Movement as a youkai is fairly tight, but human movement just goes everywhere.
Both neo@lex and Loginer seem to prefer being a youkai, although neo@lex is okay with going human (sometimes just randomly switching between the two). I just go into youkai mode to move around during boss battles (as the Netherworld team), when it's too hard to stay as a human (say, during the Reisen boss battle), and to kill enemies with slaves.
I'm probably dead wrong about some of these points (Loginer most likely).

I've actually never lost a life to Marisa, maybe it's because the stars stand out more, maybe it's because her theme's crappy. Reimu's spell with the squares pisses me off though.

In SWR news, I had no idea you could edit the player deck until just a couple of days ago. Now I finally know what the button commands are for the techs.
Who do you main in SWR? I just play whoever, but I'm best at Alice for some reason.

I'm completely useless during a Solo runthrough. Or maybe because it's because I was using Youmu, who is pretty hard to use in the first place.
And I have an Extra mode run. While not as good as I could do, it's the first one I remembered to record a replay of.
ARRRGH. I just made one more runthrough of Extra mode, and made it to Hourai Doll (her last normal Spell Card) before being ruthlessly cut down. I even qualified for Imperishable Shooting.

Oh! Scarlet Weather Rhapsody? That's a fun game, yes. My main is Suika, because for some reason she's easy for me to use for some reason. Also, I have every official touhou game that has been released for some time now. The game that I pretty much have trouble with is Embodiment of Scarlet Devil. The bosses are very annoying to beat, and I can't get through Patchouli's stage without using all my continues. 
I think Hong Meiling is Win by the way, lol.

You'd be surprised at how many times I've failed each one of those Spell Cards and normal attacks to get to that point. Hell, for that replay that I talked about, the only reason why I got to Hourai Doll in the first place was because I was trying to do a live recording of it while doing commentary - that shunted my avg. FPS to 40 or 50. I couldn't even get the replay done because of the lack of space on my HDD, so that's why Hourai Doll absolutely slaughtered me.neo@lex wrote:

[Postage of the epic IN EX replay]
You win at IN. I don't wanna play anymore....
In other news, I still can't clear easy on SWR or MoF.
Also, trying to clear Hard or Lunatic difficulty Spell Cards really helps, as the faster moving bullets help you adjust to the speed used in Extra mode. I still can't beat a lot in Extra mode, I've never been able to beat all three of EX-Keine's cards in one go, and Honest Man's Death is still a mystery to me.
And a PCB ReimuB replay. I'm a complete ➈ when it comes to Youmu, apparently.

Unfortunately, I don't have anything that lags that much, although I might try keeping over 9000 halo windows minimized and see if that helps.
Also, there's another SA demo available from ZUN's site, I'm downloading it atm.
I've unlocked a few characters in SWR, epicness has occurred. I have yet to see suika though...
I still can't beat story mode without continuing, but apparently, it saves replays when you continue, so....
Download: Neo@lex_udonge_story.osuMake sure you change the .osu to .rep this time.
Remilia and Yukari are both extremely cheap in story mode...

It's a PoFV joke. In the manual, on a picture describing the play field ZUN has Cirno overlayed with that symbol, and in the description is the Japanese word for idiot. That, combined with Icicle Fall -easy-...neo@lex wrote:

In other news...
Reisen's alt color is Miku! Hopefully, this'll lead to Touhou Vocaloids.
yeah, i still like the original tho haha..
anyways, this is where i look stuffs in swr, especially if you dont know what the cards do.
neatstuff overall. no matchvids though.

EDIT: heres a score.dat file, all cards/characters unlocked? (2 bosses) pretty nice if you want to netplay against others, since you got complete characters/cards already.

If I can figure out how to set the netplay up, I'll fight.
In other news, I am really starting to loathe Last Spells now. Hell, some Last Words seem easier to me (*cough*Deflation World*cough*). Also, f you, Hourai Doll. I don't think I'll ever be able to cap that one without slowdown help. I get close, but I always miss something if attacks come from more than two directions. Which is why I can never cap Marisa's Milky Way/Asteroid Belt series on Hard or higher, even though it is probably weaker in difficulty than say, a couple of Reisen's normal attacks on Normal.
I overcorrect too much now. I bump into everything.

How do you do that thing where when you die, you don't? I notice it a lot on Slain's replays, and I think Loginer's too.

Use a bomb during those milliseconds between getting hit and dying.
oooooooh... that sounds cool. I'll have to try it next time I'm on Touhou.
I advise you don't try it on PCB or EoSD, though, because their counterbomb timing is far harsher than the others. IN with Border Team is the easiest way for you to see the timing, because if everything clicks correctly, you have almost a full second to react, rather than a tenth of one.
Counterbombing is pretty much the only way I can do a 1cc with standard lives.

I just finished SWR's easy mode entirely.
I'll upload replays another time, and I did actually manage to do it without retrying once.
Edit: I think this was the one, cheapass Yukari ftw.

Personally, in Story Mode, I think the title of "cheapest" goes to either Reisen's Spell Card obliterator or Alice's piercing doll lazers. Not much can spell weird more when you can take out some of your foes' most powerful Spell Cards with a 1-cost card of your own, or you can essentially ignore any sort of danmaku-destroying defense with a long-range attack.
Oh right, I forgot you could use specials...
It's too damn easy to lose skillz in Touhou (or is that forget what the hell you have to do?).
In other news, ReimuA's hax in SA has been fixed. I wanted to see the Final boss die to that... Also, wtf with the wth difficulty in Stage 3 Lunatic? The only Lunatics I've played are IN and PoFV, but the SA one is miles above them. Onis seem to love haxxoring, I guess.

SA is pretty disappointing having played the demo another few times.
The only considerable improvement is the advanced graphics, and they still don't extend into the foreground. I just hope there's more IN and PoFV style gameplay in future games.

To put it simply, Lunatic PoFV is supreme lunacy. I miss when I think I should have been hit, and get hit when I think I missed.
Same thing goes to Supernatural Borders in PCB--how the heck do I dodge EVERY single bullet with it on and me charging through the bullets, but get hit by something right after. I don't get how I managed to get up to the shadow on Yuyuko's last Spell Card in the red maelstrom with the barrier on.

There are a lot of import sites though.
Shh.
oh ok
yay!
yay!
You could probably buy them from an Asian importing site - iirc they're around $25 USD apiece.xerxes_oli wrote:

I also wish to yell out to the heavens at my inability to off Yuyuko without suffering major life loss. Damn glutton ghost. Partly it's due to my own stupidity, but more importantly, I either have to not be on the bus or I need to be able to counterbomb faster. I've gotten less nine-ball against Youmu, thankfully, and better at taking out the Prismrivers.
Argh at the replay--not only because I lost on the final card, but because of the beginning of Stage 6. No firing, no moving = me at AFK watching my brother's laptop playing an episode of Kitchen Nightmares.

is there any intruction manual besides the giberish that comes with it oh and i cant understand chinese/taiwanese/japanese maybe if theres an english or catalan one?
Topic Starter
Why the hell would you want an instruction manual? You move with the arrow keys, shoot with Z, bomb with X, focus with Shift and skip dialogue with Ctrl. Dodge the bullets, shoot the enemies. One shot kills you, but you'll survive if you bomb just as the bullet hits you. That's all you need to know.
Oh, and go here for story and English patches.
I'd love to have an EEE PC to play Touhou on. Too bad they're so expensive. ;_;
WE WANT BUDGET EEES!! *makes huge sign*

Where do you get this game i been looking for it nothing =X but alot of people been talking about it and i wanna be in this game =X is its like galaga right?
Torrent sites if you want to have it now, search for it on an import site if you want to actually pay. As for being like Galaga, kind of, but there are a whole lot more bullets in patterns, loli girls and faeries in place of bosses and enemies respectively, and a scoring system that relies on your ability to get as close to bullets as possible.bRiGhT wrote:
