Touhou ParseeRAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE Thread Part 4

[Formless God]

This is a much better example.

Oh hey he changed the video description :V

"and yes "MY LAPTOP RUNS FROM 30-42 fps ONLY", you should already know what that means. (blame the low memory gaddamit)"

- I detect 67 fps.

"and if you guys really think i slowed this, i could've done it without deaths or bombs geez -_-"

- So you're GIL in disguise.

But yeah, I think one of us should submit a tool-assisted run of IN normal, make it blatantly tool-assisted, focusing every frame and dancing unfocused around bullets and whatnot, submit it, and see if they catch it. I bet you anything they wouldn't just because it's a normal difficulty run.

*brbtrying*

EDIT : You fired at her at 8:26 ! :V But nice run anyway

[Bananamatic]

Died as Scarlet Meister died.

:<

*brofist*
seriously, that was a fucking no miss no bomb timeout.

[c l e a r]

I hate everything about SA.  Worst Touhou game, in my opinion.  None of the spell cards are fun, the bomb system is horrific, and I just cannot progress at all in it.

So that's my rage of the day.  How's everyone else doing tonight?   :V

My first Touhou 1cc is SA, it took me a while to learn from Stage to stage, but in the end, it was worth it.  I guess it is just you.

All 1ccs that I have came 2 weeks to a month after that, that is how much SA has taught me about reading danmaku.

I barely bombed anything that I know I can deal with.  I even went into Stage 6 with 1.20 power and still won, though if I didn't cap the wheels without a bomb, it might not have been so pretty.

I loved how he just pulled that fps shit out of his ass, disabled ratings AND comments, hmmm!

Like I said waaay before, forget cloud way and superhuman, look at that shit after cloud way.  What a loser.

HINT: It was me who gave him that 1-Star Rating.

[Formless God]

Okay. Finished watching Phar's video and fixed my jaw's position.
I'm surprised none of you did Byakuren's fourth non-spell that way. I've been using that method for quite some time

And another hour of my life completely squandered on THE FIRST TWO GODDAMN STAGES OF EOSD.

When I was going for me PCB Lunatic 1cc, I spent 90% of my time on the first two stages. And I was trying for DAYS without that much break. This also happens a lot on SA stages 1 & 2 on Hard mode for me as well... Oddly enough, I don't tend to have too much trouble with the first two stages of EoSD Lunatic. Cirno is annoying, but not nearly as nasty as Chen. Though I usually end up bombing Demarcation, it's not worth bothering on Lunatic <_<; Of course, stage 3 is just insane, and it gets worse from there...

I disagree... To some extent. Personally, I think UFO is much, MUCH worse. SA's bombs might use power, but at least you regain them quickly through normal gameplay. UFO on the other hand, you have to go chasing moving objects through seas of bullets, and then once you get those, you have to manage to fill the UFOs with items, while still dodging, and that all goes down the drain if the midboss comes in anyway. Personally, I think that SA's and MoF's bomb system is the best in the series... The danmaku is still annoying, but it could be worse. Again, see UFO.

I wanna do this, too! In fact, it'd be pretty funny if everyone got in on this.

My touhou rage of the day is not being as good as my good buddies Donut, Baity, Jaimers and the like. Why was I not blessed by the drunken god to dodge little dots in a video game? WHYYYY-HY-HY-HY-HYYY?! 

[Scooter1000]

Now I remember why I stopped playing SA Extra a few months ago.

SANAEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[ふねん1]

Why does a MoF Stage 3 Hard perfect elude me so?

Fucking lasers, that's why! Even my "sweetspot height" isn't alleviating all the pain from Nitori's last spell. I've come *this* close to the perfect at least three times. I need to rest my mind right now...

[Seian Verian]

Why does a MoF Stage 3 Hard perfect elude me so?

MoF Hard

perfect

Um... I think the question answers itself :V Any given stage on MoF is ridiculously difficult to do without bombs or deaths. Even stage 1 to some extent, though the only real problem on Hard mode is Minoriko's first card IMO. I think that the game is designed to make you dependent on bombs for 1cc's. Of course, then you finally reach Kanako's final card and "WHAT THE HELL HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO DO THIS?!"

At least, that's my experience <.<

Might well be your experience. Though I can see where you're coming from with depending on bombs for 1cc's. Even on Normal there's a shit-ton of bullets, which is a minor bone of contention with me. But I feel like the Stage 3 perfect is so close, yet I can't get it, even through a bit of luck on just one run. I'll have to master using my "sweetspot" for the last card.

[Seian Verian]

AAARRRRRGGGHHH!!! IN LUNATIC WHAT THE FREAKING HELL?! T_T Why is EVERYTHING so utterly ridiculous? I can't deal with this stupidity... What makes it worse is that if I use Youmu, I don't have enough spread, so stages are hell, but I get the ability to destroy familiars even while focused, so bosses are... Still hell. But not nearly as bad as if I try to use Yuyuko as well. I can't do a thing except either bomb as soon as anything gets remotely near me, or sit there helplessly and die, if it's one of the many, many attacks that relies on destroying the familiars before they destroy you. Of course, some of those are still nasty even with Youmu... But still, why do I have to choose between trivial stages and bosses that blow me up as sure as if I'd gotten a Kyuu from Flandre, and hellish stages with barely manageable bosses? WHAT THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO DO HERE?!

And that's on a GOOD day. Right now, I can't even get past midboss Wriggle without dying... Gaah...

[theshirn]

Alright, when did I lose all ability to play Touhou?  Because I can't get out of IN stage 3 without dying four times.  On Hard.  With Yuyuko "Trivialization" Saigyouji and Youmu "SLASHSLASHSLASH oh hey you're out of familiars again" Konpaku.  Seriously, WHAT.

[Zengar Zombolt]

Life Spring Infinity, you big piece of BURNING BULLSHIT
Hourai Jewel, too. WHY WON'T YOU LET ME 1CC HARD

[Chaotic Phoenixma]

I could totally 1cc IN Lunatic if the deathbomb times were consistent. Both during nonspells and spells sometimes I'll get the chance to do it and other times I just die instantly without getting a chance. Other times, I get a decent amount of time to do it and other times barely any. This costs me lots of my bombs as well.


Oh, and Byakuren's final card on Normal is a bunch of crap.

Almost perfected UFO Stage 5 Normal again as well earlier. Perfect stage, perfect boss, oops clip something when the final spell is clearing.

And Hourai Elixir's last few seconds are annoying. I've gotten there a few times just to never get past 3 seconds left on the timer.

And PoFV still is a cheating piece of crap. Same exact thing happens every time, no exceptions.

And Lifespring Infinity is easy. Hourai Jewel sucks even on Hard, though I've captured that version. Can't get close to the Lunatic one though.

[Iryan]

Well, the thing with IN is that you have a very short time window for deathbombing and then get an additional longer time window, which makes the deathbombing time much longer than in the other games. The problem is: if you slip into the second window, you spellcard will cost you two bombs. Alas, if you don't have two bombs, you don't get this window and die when the initial window is over.

[Chaotic Phoenixma]

I've died instantly to Reisen's first and second nonspells before when I've had 4-5 bombs on me. I really hate those 2. Tewi does this to me a lot as well.

And I'm pretty sure I've gotten the longer one several times at one bomb, at least with border team. Too bad I suck with Border Team on Lunatic and had to switch to another team.

[Milkyway64]

Life Spring Infinity isn't bullshit. You just have to learn the trick, like any other card.

Of all of Lunatic Kaguya's cards, I've capped this one the most/at all.

[Chaotic Phoenixma]

Hey, Yuka only killed me twice this time. I deserved the stage 6 loss this time as well since I was playing badly.

Unfortunately,I still game overed on Reimu. Was a few million from the 70,000,000 extend and almost had her defeated. Doubt Shikieiki would have went well with only one real chance at her due to the first round issue.

[Jaimers]

lol, who saw this coming?

Another 1 death LLS extra.

EDIT:
And another one, sure why not, this is only the 6th so far.

*Jaimers banges his head against the wall.

[Generalguy]

Tried HRtP again because it looked fun in Donut's videos and now I know I won't die if I slide in the orb (controlling it just with the stick and the amulets is freaking impossible and is why I hated the game so much).

Played on easy of course. It was pretty nice. I liked the music. Shingyoku was fun.

Then I reached Yuugenma. My appreciation of this game went WAY down because of this total bullshit fight. Memorisation crapfest huh? Now that I kinda know how to do it, it looks really boring instead of impossibly hard. I thought at first bombs were activated by pressing ZX but it's actually left-right-Z. I really hate those controls.

Elly (or whatever she's called) was really fun though. Only problem is once she shot a circle  that creates a lot of bullets (I think) BELOW the screen, so I got killed by invisible bullets. And the circle was still there.

Then I reached Sariel. Died a few times, learned the fight a bit, remembered I could use the stick to create a path instead of bombing all the time, and eventually beat her first phase with a life in stock.

The emulator crashed at that moment. Fuck this game.

[nintendonut888]

Yuugen Magan ends many a run. He's still kinda fun if you can keep your rhythm.

Elis (not Elly, that's the LLS stage 3 boss) didn't kill you with bullets from below; that attack's quirk is that after a brief time anywhere that is not in the circle is instant death. It's kind of like Kokkuri-san's Contract.

The emulator crashed at that moment. Fuck this game.

Yeah, that happens sometimes. >_> Thankfully it's not terribly common.

You should keep trying. It looked fun in my videos because it is fun, providing you take the time to learn it.

[theshirn]

So I just unlocked PoFV Extra.  Had an amazing Yuka run for the last one, got to Shikieiki with two lives...had a good first round, and two terrible rounds, and then continued twice before she went down.  Sadness.

Also:  AAAGH EXTRA WHAT THE HELL IS THIS

[Seian Verian]

Also:  AAAGH EXTRA WHAT THE HELL IS THIS

Way less dodgehax than Normal mode? The second easiest difficulty in the game? Seriously, I managed it LONG before Normal mode, with both Komachi AND Shiki

[theshirn]

ALRIGHT SERIOUSLY

Why is it that whenever I'm doing really well - like making it to midboss Sakuya without bombing - I am GUARANTEED to clip her noncard on an easy dodge?  This isn't rank, this is just BS.

[Chaotic Phoenixma]

It happens to me all the time on Hard. I've just accepted bombing it if I have any in stock.

[Helix ⑨]

Did a no-death run of stage 6 hard MoF, captured all but the one with the knives (1 bomb, and since I'm practicing for 1cc I find that a good thing since it was a perfectly placed bomb).

And then I reach VoWG.

FOUR FREAKING DEATHS
...
FOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Tarquinius]

I hate cards like Hourai Doll or Miracle of Otensui/Source of Rains that are based on a specific movement pattern to the point where, if you die or bomb, your rhythm gets completely fucked up and you just do horribly for the rest of the card.

[Jaimers]

Died on Gengetu's loleasy streaming phase.
Rest was perfect.

Why won't this goddamn stage just let me perfect it?

[Bitz]

It took me nine continues to beat SA.

On easy.

[Azinth]

EoSD stage 5 1DNB, for the fifteen-billionth time.

MaxRank Killing Doll is the worst boss attack in the series.  No contest.
