Captured all Patchy's attacks on EoSD extra, lost all lifes on Maze of Love :fail:

Playing IN with Ghost Team, died three times at stage ONE. All three times by ramming fairies at the top of the screen. This is what happens when you aren't really sure what the heck are you doing yourself :V

Edit: Seems one of them was at stage 2, since you can't get an extend before that. Well, the cause is still the same - reckless flying

I don't remember the last time I had that much fun with a shooter.

That's what happens when you burn half an hour trying all sorts of sections of GFW's extra stage without ice.

I managed to die twice on the stage portion, perfect Koishi up until Genetics and then die twice each on Philo and Subterranean Rose. The last death was a double kill too. :V
I found it more funny than frustrating, though. I'm actually pretty glad I'm improving on this.

A while ago, I was trying to beat EoSD Normal with MarisaA. Made it to Remi, then flew into a bubble. From behind.

Reiko · « **Reply #65 on:** May 15, 2013, 10:03:14 PM »

I died to Perfect Freeze. Twice in two runs. In Hard Mode. Oh, the good old ramming-stationary-bullets !
Also died to Patchouli's opener, perfected the rest of the fight and ate a giant bubble at the last second of Emerald Megalith (seriously, this one was going fast :V ).

I don't know how many people will look at me with weird eyes for this, but I am sure at least 2-3 people will understand.

I was playing PoDD with chiyuri as usual (under finding out that ellen is near unplayable if you aren't used to her, so I will have to look into her a bit before doing something serious) and the run went nicely. up to yumemi, I only died once to chiyuri. died to yumemi in the first round as it's supposed to be and won in the second. now, the problem?

I still had 2 lives, was playing generally well and lost a PB because I hadn't been paying attention to yumemi's health. her dying early was one of the reasons I didn't notice, but damn. that run had potential for 85m had I used one more life, I believe. maybe a little less. 90 million sounds nice for now, to be honest. I will like I can do it if I play well like today and less passive against chiyuri and yumemi. ? few level 2s for them will probably make hell go lose, but should also boost my score just fine.
well, maybe once I can beat all the other characters well enough while using the level 2s. reimu and mima are still very difficult and ellen like to play tricks on me with her ex-attack

I am improving at this game, at least. that's something, I guess

So I've been into Touhou for a good week now. I was super amped to make it to EoSD stage 6 with two extra lives left, but I got too excitable it seems, because I died from impact with a wisp. That's like, what? Visualizing that actually happening to Marisa is hilarious...ly depressing.

Zengeku · « **Reply #68 on:** May 21, 2013, 11:31:31 AM »

Lost two Lunatic perfect pacifists to Ichirin's final spell.

Why is this spell so hard to time out? :V
Oh well, doesn't matter. King Kraken Strike is so much fun to timeout. I don't mind doing it again and again and again!

EDIT:

Okay. Two game overs to Phantasmagoria Trues Standard mode in a row. I remember my first credit on this game way back was a clear with 8 lives in stock. Now I can't even clear it. I dunno why I have become so bad at these games. Oh well. Maybe I can fix that later. DDC please don't suck. I need something great and motivating to get me back in to the fire! :3

Rust/skill decay is pretty annoying, I thought I'd shaken it off with yesterday's performance on practicing stuff but when I went to try the same stuff today I couldn't do any of it :/

There's got to be some way to get back where I was before and not die to every bullet that comes anywhere near where I'm trying to go.

Makedounia · « **Reply #70 on:** May 21, 2013, 10:39:03 PM »

I was playing SA on hard... I lost my first life before Kisume... It was my first time playing this game on hard. Such a stupid death.

No kidding. I swear if I get busy and don't play for a week I become bullet magnetic. Especially in EoSD. That game is my arch nemesis now. I just want to clear it so I can move on and forget those damn bubbles ever existed, but I'm in a cycle of getting 95% of the way there, having something come up that prevents me from playing for four or five days, and losing half of my progress. Random fairy bullets on stage one leap halfway across the screen to kill poor Reimu. Cirno's opener becomes insurmountable. My memorization of stage four totally vanishes. These are problems that, if I'm going to have them, shouldn't be EoSD specific but they are somehow.

MoF Hard, Minoriko's "Promise of the Wheat God". Apparently, my reflexes told me that the safest thing to do was to move straight into the laser's way. Obviously, not the best idea.

Ouch...I did an EoSD lunatic run, and ended stage 3 with only two bombs used in all three stages. Starting with a death on the stage 4 books, I went from 6 lives at the start of stage 4, to 6 lives at the end, to 4 at the end of stage 5, and 2 at the 1cc. >.< And it was shaping up so well too...

Blue · « **Reply #74 on:** May 25, 2013, 12:42:58 AM »

1st try at 1ccing PCB Normal with SakuyaB, having never used that shot type before. I started with the maximum allowed amount of starting lives. Went to Stage 5 with 8 lives(died on Hino Phantasm).

Stage 5-Died twice on midboss Youmu, one with FULL BOMBS. Also died twice on Youmu's second nonspell, once with FULL BOMBS(see where this is going?). Went to Stage 6 with 5 lives.

Stage 6-Died right before midboss Youmu. Died on Yuyuko's first nonspell with FULL BOMBS. Died on Repository of Hirokawa. Died twice on Getting Lost, once on the INITIAL BUBBLE SHOT, both times with 3 bombs. Went to 30% Reflowering with 0 lives and full bombs. 1cced with 0 lives and 2 bombs.

Yeah, I have no idea what happened, but at least I still got the 1cc...

So... gears can go straight upward.

That was amusing.

Wriggle · « **Reply #76 on:** May 26, 2013, 03:28:39 AM »

Lost a Perfect SA Extra with MarisaB to the 3rd wave of Sub Rose. :V

I've perfected Koishi ~8 times, so I don't really mind. Still, it'd my first perfect with Marisa, who fucking sucks in SA.

Seppo Hovi · « **Reply #77 on:** May 26, 2013, 06:13:39 AM »

I can't see how a shot-type that simplifies several stage portions, good damage from faraway locations when using the fire option and super flexible gameplay with her customizable options.

We can ask nyanko if she thinks that Marisa's movement speed and hitbox make the shot fucking suck. I doubt that she would think so.

Blame the player, not the game. MarisaB is a good shot.

Wriggle · « **Reply #78 on:** May 26, 2013, 07:26:21 AM »

Well, sorry, I should've been specific, I meant for Extra, but I barely play the full modes, so I forgot to specify. I do know that MarisaA has the best scoring potential along with ReimuA, but in this case I meant for casual no-bombs survival, which the Marisas aren't very good for compared to Reimus, at least for me (not counting ReimuA because too strong). And fucking suck was a bad exaggeration of my part. ^^'

Spoiler:

BT · « **Reply #79 on:** May 27, 2013, 08:37:34 AM »

I just double KO'd to the third stage's midboss spell.

Funnily enough, it happened so late that it still counted as a capture (the bonus came up just before I got hit by the leftovers). I'd have uploaded, but, y'know, extra credits. :V

It's been forever since I played the most recent touhou games

Not quite on topic but it makes me feel like a derp alright: Where the hell are the replay files and score data for the newer touhou games? I legitimately can't remember where they're stored and kind of need to access them and feel like a moron because I can't remember ):

I died by running into Nazrin after beating her midboss portion. TD spoiled me into forgetting that midbosses still have hitboxes while they're flying away.

I had made it to stage 4 of PCB as Reimu on normal difficulty. My run was bad enough as it was -- I was on my last life after several stupid mistakes throughout the stage. I come to Lunasa Prismriver, use up my remaining bombs on her first nonspell, and then when her second non comes around, I dodge past a wave of bullets, and then immediately fly across the screen and cream myself against the bullets I had just dodged.

I wasn't in any danger anymore. I wasn't trying to dodge anything when I did this. I was just like

whoops i think i accidentally dodged some bullets

better go back and get em :V

I do this all the time. It's like after the pinpoint weaving through a wave, I unfocus and suddenly I'm SANIC
My latest attempt to 1cc EoSD Normal was so close. I was on Eternal Meek all like 'Wow I'm actually dodging this' then I timed it out and was wondering, "hey, isn't there supposed to be an extend--OH SHIT"
Whether that last life would have been enough, I'll never know. But I lost to Red Magic, so you know. That's as close as it gets.
