Recommend me a Touhou game to play
« on: May 06, 2010, 09:24:44 AM »
Well I'm a bit bored with my current collection so I wanna try something, but I'm not sure which one. So far, don't recommend the following, as I've already played/beaten them.

The main Touhou series(including IaMP and SWR + UNL)
Labyrinth of Touhou
Legend of Scarlet Symphony
Touhou Pocket Wars(including EVO)
Megamari
Super Marisa Land/World


I'm a bit into RPGs(Don't recommend Defiant of Shrine Maiden, I can't figure it out really) so anything like that is recommended. Not too big on RTS or the Shooters so those are out too. I know, limited options, but I'm looking for something fun. If you got recommendations, post the name and any pros/cons for them. Don't need to provide locations to find them, I'll do that myself.

Fantasy Quadruple Sword ~ Tenshi's Counterattack

Tactics-style RPG.  There isn't an english patch, but there's a spreadsheet out there somewhere with all translations for everything but dialogue as well as a guide to getting every character.

Tactics? Like Final Fantasy Tactics?

Wasn't too big on it but I'll try it. Already found it but I can't seem to find any videos on it. Googling it doesn't help either. As for the Spreadsheet, you wouldn't happen to know where it is? Haven't started looking yet but I'm gonna check around for it, and I'll edit the post if I find anything(Or not)

Yeah, like that.

I only know of one vid on youtube, and it's filmed at about 1/3 normal game speed in a random boring close-to-start-of-game battle (against Cirno, I think).  I don't know where the spreadsheet's gone off to unfortunately, because I've been dying to replay this game.  Asking on Poosh didn't turn up any results either.

I've heard of an English patch for "Aya Shameimaru Ace Attorney" in the works.

Mystical Chain. Although it's Platformer/Shooter, it has a pretty good soundtrack and very well-designed bosses.

Oh, if you haven't played this yet, definitely this.

Final boss fight was amazing and unforgettable in every single aspect.

I agree. The game is amazing. The replay value is pretty bad though. still though, everyone should try it.

You know I played Mystical Chain up to the stage past Kaguya and Mokou but that's it. I did like it but only a little, so I might get it again.
