Touhou Rage Thread XV: No "No Misses" Edition

[Yatakarasu]

I take back everything I said about Koishi's Extra Stage. Nue's is 10x worse. D:

[Mino ☆]

>Tries UFO LNB.
>Perfects Ichirin
>Does a 1 miss Murasa
>Captures Greatest Treasure
>Gets to Shou wtih 7 lives
>Dies twice to the second nonspell and twice to vajra
>Proceeds to die three times during the stage portion of stage 6
>Reaches Byakuren with 1 spare life and two power
>Gameovers on Cloudy Way in Purple

I should  practice more.

*starts playing Defiant of Shrine Maiden again even though no English patch is out*

Fighting the first boss over and over and over again because they REFUSE to give me their item after I blast them to bits is rather annoying.  I thought I read in DoSM bosses had like a 40% chance to drop their item...so why haven't I gotten it after the past like 15, 20 fights?  It's too good NOT to get it, and this is the only chance I have, too, so it's extra annoying.  Oh well.  *continues to smash the afro kid's face in*

[Marisa Kirisame]

Need I say more? This happens too damn much.

[Marisa Kirisame]

why the fuck are you guys even complaining?



and I want to perfect that stage soonish. x)

I dunno, why Are they complaining? lols

[attach=1]

that whole screen......... happy I did them but damn my record sucks.

[Marisa Kirisame]

Really Mokou? Really? I always bomb your last non-spell (a.k.a. Rings of Death) everytime I face i but the first time I play you on 90FPS I cap it? what the fuck girl, what the fuck?

[Oh]

I really want to like SA, I really do. But for me, playing it is beyond frustrating.
I can't describe it, but every time I try to play SA I am left disappointed by my inability to do well.
Always I die right before capturing an attack. Always I move too much or too little, etc.
I guess the stages are less straight-forward as earlier titles, but I shouldn't be doing this bad.
And then there's the parts where I don't know what to do.
I've watched several NB replays in attempt to produce one myself, however I cannot learn anything, I always forget strategies or get them mixed up.
I'm so horrible at SA that I can't even NMNB stage 3. The lasers post mid-Yuugi completely destroys me.

[Makedounia]

I was practicing TD stages 3 and 4 on hard. I perfected both. So far so good. Then I tried to 1cc... Both of those stages took 2 lives. On top of that, I SOMEHOW made it to Miko's last spellcard. Nope, still not hard 1cc.

[Mino ☆]

This was a failed UFO Lunatic No Bombs attempt. I got to stage 6 with max lives AFTER perfecting Shou. This is just ridiculous!

I let my nervousness get the better of me, and I failed miserably. This is definitely THE biggest Touhou loss I've ever had. I could rant all day about it, but that won't turn back time will it?

Basically, I died once at the ying yangs on the stage. And I failed to make back that life because a UFO escaped my grasp, leaving me with 7 lives and a shattered morale on Byakuren. I then proceeded to die twice to Cloudy Way in Purple, and then twice to the second nonspell. I captured Magic Butterfly and the third nonspell, but then I died twice to Magic Milky Way. I know I suck at that spell, but I shouldn't die twice. Abysmal. I capture the last nonspell, and then somehow, by some miracle, capture Devil's Recitation with only 1 power. And then I somehow died to Superhuman, which sort of killed the last spare life I had. And then I get to LFS on my last life, with only 3 power. And then the "AFTER" picture happened.

Still can't believe I lost this.

UPDATE: I managed to get a UFO LNB!

^ :&&&&

ANYWAY

I swear

I lose a life on Stage 6 Rikako with Mima because I let go of the shot button a tiny bit too early (causing a level 4 to turn into a level 3).
I lose a life on Stage 6 Rikako with Mima because I got hit by a stray pellet after a screen-sized barrage of pellets.
I lose a life on Stage 6 Rikako with Mima because I'm dumb and I don't bomb.
Then I barely won the fourth match.

...Which put me up against Decisive Match Reimu with no spare lives.

[Zengeku]

Meh. Today I've lost a handful of Ichirin and Kogasa pacifists due to world record breaking stupidity.

I also tried my hand at some Shou pacifisting. Then I got a decent run in where I survived everything but the 2nd non (which is pretty much luck anyway) but then I fucked up like a stupid retard and got hit by Vajra and Complete Clarification. Herp derp, real stupid, should irl suicide to lower the rank some but I doubt that'll work and it's illegal to do that other thing that might make me happy again so I'll just go watch some cute loli anime instead.

Have a nice day folks. And apologies to the guys for having to listen to my whine.

[Elysia]

Ugh. I don't expect MB LNB to be easy or anything, but I really should not be dying five times to stage four, two of which came on the same spellcard. That was just pathetic.

[Yatakarasu]

I lost three lives to Danmaku Chimera. WHAT THE FUCK! This card is not hard.

[Marisa Kirisame]

How? That must have been some seriously bad luck

[BT]

Game Over'd by Stage 3 Reimu.

What a bitch.

[Yatakarasu]

How? That must have been some seriously bad luck

That and a combination of just not being used to it (and a terrible keyboard).

[Marisa Kirisame]

[/quote

terrible keyboard? Is one of your diagonals disabled like mine?

[Yatakarasu]

No. I play on a laptop, because college, and it likes to ghost all the time and moving left is much harder than moving right. I plan on fixing this over the summer.

[Elysia]

That's how many restarts forced by Konoha? Ten? Freaking tanukis.

She's not even hard, just really really clip-happy, and I cannot afford to clipdeath on stage one when I have a no-bombs Lunatic ahead of me.

EDIT: And after looking over my recordings, it's apparently sixteen. In the past two days alone. Yeah...

[Marisa Kirisame]

Been meaning to ask. I see it a lot on here but don't know what it means. what is "ghosting"?

[Elysia]

Basically, you tap a directional button and the keyboard doesn't properly register you letting go of the button, which results in the game thinking you're holding down that direction and therefore dashing there, when you only meant to move a little bit that way.

It's happened to me a few times when I play web games (which is probably the main reason why I stopped playing Bullet Heaven), but not on Touhou, thank Mikoto. I don't know how people manage to play Touhou with ghosting keyboards, I know if that happened on mine I'd get a new keyboard ASAP.

I get a worse problem every so often (though I now know what you're talking about and it really is annoying.) I get a severe ghost. Meaning it thinks I am still holding down the key constantly. Sometimes it is fixable with the directional number pad. but it ruins runs so badly.

In other news my laptop gives me a sort of trade off. I lose my down-right diagonal direction but I get lag in the later games in return. it's weird.

[Marisa Kirisame]

Gah Really!? Game over at stage 2 on TD Lunatic? the hell Kyouko? Then I continue and easily cap Miyako's opening spell. Dafuq....

[I have no name]

Bullet Heaven

Play this with the mouse.  Honestly if I could play Touhou with the mouse I probably would, it gives more free form control that's more precise in my experiences.  S-ranking that 4th bonus level took me a bit even with the available mistakes   :3

Failed an EoSD LNB run as Remilia exploded on Scarlet Gensokyo.

I know that pain. Happened to me when fighting Flandre with Amulet Reimu.

Funnily enough, it would have been my first Scarlet Gensokyo capture! I'll get my revenge someday!

That's one of us. I get slaughtered by both "Scarlet" spells on Hard and Lunatic. =D

[Makedounia]

Another failed Mokou attempt... I think I'm going to take a break from touhou for a couple of days. I've been playing really badly lately.

[Jmyster]

I rage for my friend. So close, so tantalizing close, but still defeated by Yuyuko right before Resurrection Butterfly. He's been trying to 1cc for months, and the closer he gets the more agonizing the loss.

He can do it, but he just needs a little luck. Still too inconsistent dealing with Youmu's cards. I've offered to send more replays, but he wants to do it on his own terms, and I can respect that.
