Bullshit.

And I almost got a no-bomb run with Ellen. Ignore what I said before about her being harder than Chiyuri. I underestimated her EX attacks.

Wow. Got to SA stage 5 in a No Bomb run with 4 extra lives. Lost 3 to the opening section after the streaming fairies because I didn't move far enough to the right to kill that one orb, and I got completely screwed on that segment because of it. So stupid. I was so sure I would have gotten it that time...

Also in other games: Byakuren's 2nd non-spell is just plain ridiculous. I just don't understand those stupid lasers.

Number of times she used something other than that: 18 (not counting things used during a bomb)
She has 5 moves to choose from.

Dude, what? Kogasa might move randomly around but Ichirin mostly doesn't move around at all or moves in fixed ways. Her first spellcard, she moves in a fixed way. Second spellcard, she's quite restricted as to where she can move, always around the center. Third, she doesn't move at all. Unless you are trying to do her supergraze spots, I have no clue what you are complaining about. There are bosses who do that random movement thing far worse.

It's their nonspells that give me the most trouble. I'm not the best player, of course, but I never had this problem as bad as this with any other boss in any other Touhou game.

Is streaming really that troublesome? I'm not trying to be snappy, but seriously, it's just streaming. With practice, you can multitask between streaming and dodging on-hand.

I know but it messes with your score especially in this game since POC will be the main gimmick towards high scores and staying alive and you'll miss point and power items streaming suicide bullets. Normally I don't have a problem with this because usually streaming is apart of the stage pattern when you need to use it.

SA Normal 1cc ReimuA attempt. Went into Stage 6 with 7 lives. Died on the LAST BULLET of Blazing Wheel, borderhacked right into a bullet while streaming, ended up with a game over on Artificial Sun after dying at least 4 times through keyboard derp. This was after my best Stage 5 run ever, I only died 3 times in the entire game before Stage 6.

For the past hour now I've been trying to beat Byakuren in UFO. Only on Stage 6. Because I continued. I learned how to perfect each of her attack, but die CONSTANTLY due to carelessness in the beginning of the stage, idiotic clipping, or those goddamned curvy lasers in Light Maelstrom. I've gotten Flying Fantastica down to about a quarter health before dying a few times now.

WHY CAN'T I JUST BEAT HER SO I CAN DO PRACTICE STAGE GODDAMMIT

Two lives in this system of life gaining is NOT enough!

I would ragequit, but then I would have to fight aaalllll the way back here. And my god do I hate curved lasers. All of them.

Kingault · « **Reply #907 on:** June 02, 2013, 04:52:45 AM »

Finally decided to beat IN on Normal on Friday.
Had 5-6 lives in reserve at the start of Stage 4, and zero at the end.
Guess I should practice on Easy, huh?

an unmatched sock · « **Reply #908 on:** June 02, 2013, 05:00:46 AM »

Scratch my complaint. I watched a video of it, then managed (after about five tries, eight if you count the suicides due to stupid deaths) to beat Byakuren with no lives and no bombs. Now if only I could perfect stages 4 and 5 to make it up to Stage 6 with a few lives to spare...beating Byakuren with only 3 lives sucks.

Elysia · « **Reply #909 on:** June 02, 2013, 09:30:05 AM »

Wow, Mikoto, you are really getting on my nerves.

I finally managed to work out a path for the first wave of Reimu's survival card, and then the second wave comes along and completely kicks my ass.

Seriously, if someone could work out a path for the second wave, I'd be very appreciative. Feel free to steal my first wave path, it's why I recorded and linked it here.

I just do not have the patience for this card.

Bah! I like how I can go into stage 5 of SA (hard) with two lives and still die before the boss fight.

Reiko · « **Reply #912 on:** June 04, 2013, 06:57:07 PM »

Getting gameovers in DDC stage 1 on a regular basis.
I guess it's better to laugh about it. Actually it's a good thing, it spares me this awful stage 3.

ふねん1 · « **Reply #913 on:** June 04, 2013, 09:06:06 PM »

Man, DDC Cirno is really giving me fits right now. I mean sure, she's harder than the average Stage 1 midboss and my aggressive approach probably doesn't help, but I'm still making plenty of mistakes on her that I shouldn't be. Might be an effect of my massive layoff, who knows.

Sage Ω (Ultima) · « **Reply #914 on:** June 07, 2013, 10:59:22 PM »

I've been trying to clear Mamizou's Wild Desert Island card. And after over 60 tries I finally clear it and die at the same time.

Life - 891/18000. 3 hours of attempts later, still nope.

Oh · « **Reply #916 on:** June 09, 2013, 01:12:33 AM »

well this sucks...
Dying to Saruta Cross. Well just blame my nerves.
Dying to that stage 5 streaming. I want to kill myself.
Dying to Source of Rains. Why did I think rushing through there was a good idea? I could have easily fit through those arrowheads.
Very disappointing later stages. I think I played for more than 3 hours restarting momiji.

Reiko · « **Reply #917 on:** June 09, 2013, 09:22:38 AM »

Why Flandre, why ?

I was trying some EoSD Extra no-bombs. One death to Royal Flare. Perfected Flandre until ATWTBN, where I lost TWO lives, both in the stupidest way. QED finished me off, because it's been ages since I saw this spell. Game over with like 5% of the lifebar remaining.
This run should have been the one...

Blue · « **Reply #918 on:** June 10, 2013, 06:03:03 AM »

UFO 1cc attempt with ReimuA. First time with the shot type. After countless restarts because of derp deaths, UFO derp, or both in stage 1 or 2, I finally get a run beyond that. I made it to stage 6 with 5 lives. Lost all of them in stupid ways to Byakuren, ending with two, no bombs used, on Devil's Recitation. WHY. JUST WHY. I ALREADY DID THIS WITH REIMUB THREE HOURS AGO, WHY CAN'T I DO IT NOW? Maybe it has something to do with the fact that it's 11:00 in my time zone right now. Yeah, I should probably get some sleep...

Oh yeah, and my down key got stuck during Byakuren's second spell(I forgot what it's called), so I spent 2 minutes trying to fix that...

Oh · « **Reply #919 on:** June 10, 2013, 09:21:35 PM »

died to nitori, PWG, and VoWG

I'm stupid for not restarting, but it gets tiring after a while. Silly VoWG death on an easy wave.

Blue · « **Reply #920 on:** June 11, 2013, 07:23:47 AM »

Well, stuff from today's attempt on UFO Normal w/ ReimuA...

-Died 2 or 3 times BEFORE Murasa, usual amount of Stage 5 deaths

Went to Byakuren with 3 lives in stock, so 4 lives.

-Byakuren's first spell:Why are the pink bullets making my eyes derp...(1 death, I think with 1 or 2 bombs)

-Byakuren's third non:I should have been able to see where those bullet lines were going...(1 death)

-Devil's Recitation:I can capture this, I can capture this, I have no bombs left...WHERE DID THAT SNOWBALL BULLET COME FROM THERE WERE 5 PIXELS LEFT IN THE CARD(1 death)

-Air Scroll:Got no lives in stock...let's see if I can cap this...Oh shoot, I need to bomb WAIT I DIED. GREAT.

On the bright side, if this pattern continues I'll get to Flying Fantastica or clear the next attempt.

Almost beat Komachi (2-1) with Marisa.

Almost. 3:11 not enough. Need to learn how to spam.

Why must I suck soo much at UFO?

Space Flower · « **Reply #924 on:** June 12, 2013, 02:57:23 AM »

Kind of annoyed with the continue system in the middle Touhous. Play one stage over and over until I get it? Yeah, that's already covered under stage practice. I guess that's offset by how easy the bomb system makes it to go the first four stages of these games without dying once you get it.

Validon98 · « **Reply #925 on:** June 12, 2013, 03:03:01 AM »

Guess I'm not getting that second MoF Extra clear tonight. I swear, just a couple more seconds on the last spell and I would have had it. But nope, I derp into a bullet instead. That could have been avoided if I wasn't such an idiot on Moriya's Iron Rings (I can capture that card, I just derped really badly on it this time) along with All the other idiotic derps I made in this stage. ReimuB's still pretty good, though.

ReimuB's still pretty good, though.

Due to the nature of the stage I usually just prefer Reimu A, even if B has more firepower. After reading this just now I decided to go do Suwako once more for the fun of it. I had two deaths. One derp on Iron rings (seriously, I honestly did not physically see what I rammed and I wasn't touching the screen's edge, right before the bullets faded it might've been remnants of the white rings). Second death was kind of inevitable as I am bad at the first time out in the last 1/3 or 1/4 of it (and I usually get there with little to no power). First few times I did her final card it was annoying but now I find it extremely easy, or among the easiest of final boss cards, be it a final main story or other extra bosses.

I am however surprised Froggy Braves the Elements didn't clip me. I had 1.50 power and bombed once near the beginning. Could've had 4 lives remaining!

ふねん1 · « **Reply #927 on:** June 12, 2013, 04:52:01 PM »

Did a DDC pseudo-scorerun with Reimu B on Lunatic that managed to clear. Yet I only scored 9 million higher than my first 1cc. Not sure how much of a rage it is since I knew dying so much on Sekibanki and Kagerou would hurt my score, but it still affected it much more than I thought it would.

...Can I just say UFO collection is the biggest bullcrap of a game mechanic ever? "Oh, you're going to summon a red UFO for that extra life you desperately need? Let me turn blue the moment you have a chance to collect me."

You have no idea how many times I've restarted a run because of that. And I only do that if it happens in Stage 1 or 2.
