Nobody Cares How Bad You Are at Touhou! (Accomplishments IX)

[Jaimers]

Of course, in doing this I realize that not only is the special Yukari boss fight unavailable if you lose even one life before stage 4, but you also lose out on your chance to play extra (which is what I REALLY want to be able to do, since extra Reimu looks like a lot of fun).

Actually I'm pretty sure the requirement for extra is that you have to 1cc with more or equal to three extra lives left. The first time you unlock extra 3 and the next clear let's you choose between extra 3 and extra 4.

And yeah, Mima's a bit of a bitch the first few times. She gets easier after you remember some of the surprise attacks though.

[nintendonut888]

That's still really annoying though. :\ I hate games that ask you to do more than just 1cc.

And hearing that I have to do extra 3 before extra 4...well actually, I ran through the game with DFK shot types and slaughtered the game and got to choose extra 4, but still.

If only there were a way to play individual stages in PR...

[Ghaleon]

Noooo, it's good anyway. I don't see why we have to bring elitism into this. The guy just 1cc'd lunatic after trying for so long, stop trying to cheapen it. :|

Not at all. If any team is broken in IN it's the border team.

I remember my first 1st was with 5 lives at the start and YOU were like "hurr gtfo scrubface" =p. I only used one of them too, and it wasn't with a "broken shottype".

Hmmph =p.

[Autumn]

I beat IN Extra with a life and 3 bombs left...

!When I can barely pass easy mode!

Hooray for practice!  :V

(But I read IN Extra is very easy compared to the others so...  :ohdear:

[stands2reason]

1cc'ing PCB on Normal feels like it's within my grasp, but I just can't seem to do it.

I keep getting blind-sided by bullets and dying without using all my bombs. I can barely counterbomb.

[nintendonut888]

Hmmph =p.

Default lives is the only thing I think is important. I mean, how is it equal if you start with two more lives than everyone else?

[Ghaleon]

Default lives is the only thing I think is important. I mean, how is it equal if you start with two more lives than everyone else?

About as equal as an extra bomb every life =p. Especially when one of the said lives were never even used.

You're just a hater cuz I'm white admit it!!!
Seriously though, for first times, just getting the good ending deserves SOME bragging rights IMO.

[ふねん1]

Against all expectations, I think I'm getting better at reading Satori's DBDB.

Now if only I can stop hitting the fucking lasers in FIN, I'd feel like all this practice was actually going somewhere.

[Demonbman]

Yay! EoSD Hard 2cc! Scarlet Meiser was fun! I died twice to it, but it was fun =D
The Patchouli fight was also pretty fun, I got a 1D1B Fight! it was on Mercury Poison =D
Sucks though that I had to continue right as Eternal Meek was ending, but I am okay with that, all I wanted was to try Meiling on Hard, and it turned into a 2cc!

[ebarrett]

You can't stop there, that's bat country go for the 1cc!

[Demonbman]

You can't stop there, that's bat country go for the 1cc!

It has become my mission 

[GenericTouhouFailure]

1cc eosd normal. on max lives  :colonveeplusalpha:
Worst part is that it would be a normal 1cc if i didn't die stupidly to remi with bombs in stock.
Actually if i started with the default lives i would have beaten it anyway. Forgot 5-3 ≠ 0

[8lue Wizard]

LLS Extra Clear. I Are Super Player!

This makes 5.

[ark]

NDNB Patchouli (EoSD Hard, MarisaA). yay

Looks like I'm well on my way to a 1cc. Hopefully that'll come tomorrow. (Best so far is a 3cc)

[MTSranger]

It was, uhhh, my 4th try at Phantasm?
Reach Yukari 1/0, somehow made it to Shikigami "Ran" 2/1 (then proceed to get body checked to death)
Are some of the cards actually easier or am I just lucky?

[ふねん1]

Are some of the cards actually easier or am I just lucky?

Some of them are indeed easier. It also helps that some of her attacks are very similar to Ran's, so if you've already spent the time learning the counterparts in Extra, you won't have to adjust too much for the Phantasm versions.

[ark]

EoSD Hard 1cc

This one took some actual practice, but with a little memorization it turned out to be not that hard to 1cc. Stages 1-3 went perfectly; just one bomb for points. (lol points in a 1cc attempt)

And that leaves..... UFO :V

[Myschi]

This is probably a bit 'lame' on the 'Holy shit yay!' side of things, but...

I finally got to Eirin on route A! I didn't beat her (a spellcard or two to go), but I GOT THERE! WOO!

And if you'll excuse me, I'mma go stop seeing bullets when I close my eyes...

[ark]

UFO Hard 1cc, with hilarious Stage 4 action, starting with me pressing X thinking I had a bomb! :c

I have now 1cc'ed every Windows game (except PoFV) on Hard. Hooray!

[ebarrett]

UFO Hard 1cc

*headdesk*

congratulations, etc

Major congrats!

[Alice★f]

Hey guys...

...I'm back!

From a month of no Touhou. Let's see how that screwed up my shmup career~

I'm playing with a skill level that has a wierd mix of normal, hard and lunatic. My reflexes have gotten better, but I can't read that easily anymore. Very good with bullet density, but bad with bullet speed. I panic bomb more nowadays.

This is the accomplishment thread, so what is the accomplishment?

-------------> Got up to Stage 6 Lunatic on SA

Yet I got trashed by Yuugi (Hard)

I still mess up most of the old spell cards, I still have the same old bad habits, but a very good rest seems to have done some good overall.

[nintendonut888]

I'm so certain it's been less than a month, but okay.

As for me, I got a PoFV lunatic 1cc, AND got a replay to save without crashing.

And I swear it's not cheating. Just because it makes the game FUN (well, even then...) means Aya is no longer a valid choice apparently. Well I say poppycock! =^=

[Alice★f]

I'm so certain it's been less than a month, but okay.

I stopped playing right before I went on my trip. Actually, my last game was when I arrived at the hotel room, which was June 27th?

[ebarrett]

Went back to PoFV for a while and got the two 1cc's I was missing - Youmu and Yuka. Still needed to die three times to Shiki w/ Yuka, though.  :/

[ark]

You guys should get in #shrinemaiden so we can battle PoFV.

[Iryan]

Ok, so I randomly started a UFO lunatic run, without any expectations. It was a little laggy as well, but I don't think that had a noteworthy effect on what happened. Anyways...

After being all  :derp: and losing 3 lives on stage one, I game over to the arrowhead fairies before midboss Ichirin. But on the way...

I captured Parasol Star Memories!

SanaeB, 3.xx power, btw. Does that trivialize the card too much, or can I still count it as an accomplishment?  :V

[Formless God]

It just makes the card slightly easier. SanaeB (and MarisaB) destroy more parasols, so you have less ninja parasols and more metal fatigue bullets to deal with :getdown:

[ふねん1]

I don't even know where this belongs.

I just 1cc'd SA Lunatic.

The game crashed right after the fade to black.

Then again, I just 1cc'd SA Lunatic.

Then again, I have no replay to prove it. And any replays I get later can never really be one of my first 1cc.

[nintendonut888]

UFO stage 3 1DNB, I'll take this as an accomplishment even if the death was on Scolding Scorch. 8( I may have possibly found a breakthrough on King Kraken Strike, but just two runs isn't enough to draw a correlation.
