Touhou Rage Thread XV: No "No Misses" Edition

[RegretDesi]

"Running into Yuyuko's hitbox" is practically a meme between my friends due to how often I do it. Fucking spirits.

[Makedounia]

I tried MoF extra stage. I hadn't played it for a while and I knew I wouldn't clear it. I somehow made it to Suwako's last spellcard with 3.00 power and two lives left. I knew something silly was going to happen... Then it happened: I bumped into the first wave of bullets. I lost my last life when Suwako had about one tenth of her health left.

[an unmatched sock]

I must be an honest person, since I always lose my last life to Mokou's "Honest Man's Death". I don't know whether to rage or feel complimented.

[Blue]

I lost a UFO Normal 1cc with MarisaA because my mom and sister were talking incredibly loudly and being annoying for ABSOLUTELY NO REASON. Especially my mom, she's making exclamations about everything that's been happening in the NBA Finals game that's going on right now. I could actually hear them through the game music, and I had both of my earbuds on. Seriously, I DIED TWICE ON BYAKUREN'S FIRST SPELL. WHAT. I already knew it was going to be a close run, but those deaths ensured that I'd game over. I probably would have cleared, too. I game overed when Air Scroll had a quarter of its health left.

EDIT: And they're not stopping, even after I told them to be quiet. This is not going to be a good night for Touhou...

VoWG on average - 3MNB timeout.
Capture rate, however...

[ふねん1]

It's starting to sink in just how far I've regressed after all this time. I know I don't play often enough anymore to really fix that, but still, it sucks to see myself playing "not like myself".

[Tsym]

I never thought I'd say it, but damn TD is kicking my ass. It's just all those little mistakes that continue building up. Screwing up on any one of Kyouko's cards, getting cross-eyed for just a millisecond on one of Yoshika's patterns, or being dumb on stage 4. I feel as though these sections shouldn't be killing me, but they are, and it's annoying. This is like my MoF no bomb attempts all over again. So many dumb mistakes on the easier stuff that ends up nuking my run.

[チソウ タイゼン]

did you seriously give a character with principally homing shot-types a melee-type bomb?

god damn it zun

Reimu in DDC?

[TrueShadow]

SO CLOSE TO Easy 1cc UFO!!! Died to Flying Fantastica. Yeah, ezmodo...but still so frustrating!! Doing extremely well on Stage 1-4, then dying 4 times on Shou, and finished off by miscalculating Byakuren's bullet hitboxes. I hate that nonspell when she starts flying all around the screen.

[チソウ タイゼン]

Reimu in DDC?

DDC Lunatic runs with Reimu keep failing because my bombs only affect the fourth of the screen immediately above my character >_>

Well, Reimu A anyway.

[Tsym]

... No words.

[Nindella]

Had a couple of attempts at NBing EoSD looney, hehe, got a MarisaA to stage 6 spam before silly deathing there~

Tried again and got a ReimuB run to Young Demon Lord before recalling that I've never captured this spell on lunatic... :smokedcheese: 

I almost timed out Eternal meek too, poop  :derp:


Edit: With regards to SA, I've cranked up the time I've spent on only NMNBing attempts (so ignoring the scoring thingys~) by another 30 or so hours the past few days, dozens of runs ending from DBDB to Orin, A TON ending somewhere silly on stage 3 (I once had 4 runs in a row die on her bubble thingy!  hahahaha.... that's really sad  :wat:)
Every restart is to something I can dodge, but I move sillily (I was sure that's a word  :ohdear:) to get some extra graze or do something fancy and mess up, it's really not good, hmph...

hmph hmph hmph hmph hmph.

[KuroArashi100]

I was playing TD with Youmu on Normal and kept dying in stage 6, starting the stage with 5 lives, and ending with 1.
While having 1lc'd the game thrice with the other characters.
It made me somewhat... unhappy.

[an unmatched sock]

So, I've been trying Subterranean Animism again for a 1cc Reimu/Yukari.

I got to Orin with 6 extra lives. I even captured her midboss spellcard and gained an extra life in the battle.

I got to Stage 6 with 2 extra lives, which I lost in the stage itself in really stupid maneuvers. Needless to say, I didn't beat Utsuho.

Perhaps if I didn't make those 2 mistakes against Satori, I might have made it.

Orin is still my bane in SA. Constantly continuing to try and unlock the stage for practice sucks too. Ugh.

[Eric]

Been doing a few MS Lunatic 1ccs to hopefully get better and start playing for score, but I keep derping at Mai of all characters...

[Blue]

So let's see...trying to finish up UFO Normal with a MarisaB 1cc.

Went to Stage 5 with 8 lives, around normal for me. Went into the Shou fight with 5.

Somehow capped all of Shou's spells but the first(gained a life because I had 4 life pieces), then I decided to die twice in Stage 6.

I might have been able to clear Byakuren, but I had a clipdeath on her second spell. Then I died again because I thought she had low enough health left in that spell to warrant a rush/PoC during the invincibility period.

Turns out, MarisaB apparently doesn't do enough damage for that to be possible. Game overed to Air Scroll.


...Did I mention that I died to a bullet hidden inside a life piece during Stage 6?

[Andrew]

Mountain of Faith has just become my least favourite game in the series. I've only played it for 2 days, and I've already somehow managed to die with bombs in stock more times than in every other goddamn game combined. Many of these deaths were in situations that seemed completely trivial to dodge through. I've lost count of the times I've gotten clipped by Kanako's attacks alone. I swear, even in EoSD I never have that many clipdeaths. And I'm especially sick of dying with 3-5 power on attacks that I was able to capture on my first attempt.

I've also had some annoying glitches happen too. I've had the game crash multiple times while trying to view replays, and have had to redo a normal 1cc to unlock Extra because my first one didn't save for whatever reason.

Now that I've gotten my Hard 1cc and Extra clear over with (which, fortunately were easy, thanks to the game's broken bombing system), I never want to touch this game again. Virtue of Wind God is like the only part of the entire game that I enjoy. It's fun, it's not cheap, the hard mode version is just the right difficulty for me, and I can at least usually tell when I need to bomb it.

[CyberAngel]

Playing around with IN Spell Practice. Lost count of how many spellcards are easier on Hard than on Normal. That, and all those times when you lose just because RNG decided it hates you. What a fun game this is. In a frustrating, not-fun-at-all way.

[Bang Jan]

EOSD easy perfect pacifist run lost at the last second of Marionette!

[Ranko Hoshino]

EOSD easy perfect pacifist run lost at the last second of Marionette!

I'm pretty sure I've been there as well. It's frustrating when that kind of thing happens.  :wat:

[Szayelaporro Granz]

I'm trying to 1cc PCB on normal in the last few days and I tend to lose a live at stage 2 and reset because I usually try to score a bit at early stages but oh well, scoring has always been my weakest point. I've played Touhou for nearly a year and I haven't 1cc every game on normal yet...

[Blue]

Almost cleared Mokou. I made it about 2/3 through Hourai Doll before dying.

It probably would have been a clear, too, if I had actually made it to Fujiyama Volcano before. It was my first time, and I had absolutely no idea how to do it.

Also, I somehow almost managed to stream the nonspell before Fujiyama Volcano.

[FamilyTeam]

I was playing my worst enemy: TH13 Ten Desires. I was trying to 1cc it on Normal for the 5th time this week. I Had 8 Bombs and 5 FREAKIN lives at the start of level 5. I generally don't lose a single life on that stage. Then, towards the end of it, a fireball spawnS DIRECTLY into my hitbox and kills me. Now 4 lives left.
Then Futo kills me with a bullet that came from offscreen. 3 Lives.
I get walled at mid Level 6. 2 Lives.
I get walled again but this time I have time to press the bomb button. I hammer the damn thing and no bomb comes out. 1 life left.
And then by some kind of miracle, I get to Miko's penultimate spell on my last life while I can't use bombs. My efforts were futile tough. Died on it, 1cc goes down the drain.
So I go to options, (after having a rage outburst of course) and check key config. I had accidentaly remapped the bomb button to button 11, or R3. :colonveeplusalpha:

[Tsym]

Wow god damn it. I died on Miko's second and third non-spell and lost this NBNT run. So annoyed. So close... I don't even know what to say. This is totally doable, but all the little mistakes I make are just killing me. And Kyouko is so rage worthy. I mean she's not Kogasa level difficulty, but her patterns just make me tense up for whatever reason. Yoshika though? I feel as though I almost breeze right past her even though she should be killing me. I don't understand how this game screws with my expectations so much. Ugh.
