I beat friggin' MS Extra that took way too blasted long
3000 and counting. We are proof that mankind is doomed.
Previous thread: http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php?topic=2075.0

Just attempted UFO Extra no focus as it's the only Windows Extra I haven't done that for yet... my first attempt that wasn't a ragequit before Nue got me up to Grudge Bow. :V Also managed a capture of Danmaku Chimera which is kind of scary no-focus. All in all it seems pretty easy up until the last two cards; I died twice to Nightmare's first two phases and died again on the first phase of Grudge Bow.
Also, not sure if I should bother with LLS/MS Extras no focus. Even if I managed them, is there any way of actually proving it short of recording the run during the actual playthrough?

I AM A LUNATIC!
(http://img340.imageshack.us/img340/6797/llslunatichahaha.png)
Had one bomb in stock, so that makes four lost bombs. I lost one when my friend came in the room - on Yuka's second-to-last phase no less - and I, stupidly, turned to look. DONK
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

IIRC the second-to-last one of the percentages is the amount of time you spent focused, so if that's 0%...

Ah okay, cool stuff. I'll have to do those at some point then. Also, congrats on the Lunatic 1cc!
Anywho, I tried UFO Extra no focus again, and voil? (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5394). That was really easy compared to SA's run, I died with bombs in stock a load of times and still cleared comfortably enough. Highlight of the run, I think, would be the no focus capture of Rainbow UFOs. Also capped Kogasa's first and third cards, and all of Nue's first four cards. :V I almost captured Grudge Bow, too, which was kind of annoying - I died about halfway through the final phase. Ah well. At any rate, all Windows Extras no focus cleared!
Hum. Has anyone else done this, actually?
-
Actually, I tried a no-focus run of MS once and I'm pretty sure that number was at its highest yet around 54%. My memory may be poor and I can't find the screenshot so I'll do another run later, or Sapz will eventually test it.

I'm assuming threads autolock after 1000 replies, since nothing seemed to be happening in V3 to justify a lock. Which means making a new thread. If I've messed up, feel free to lock this one too and punish me
( i will secretly enjoy it )
Anyway, my accomplishment, such as it is - 1CC of PCB Easy with ReimuA. (Almost got there with ReimuB, too, but lost my last life to Sumizome Perfect Blossom. B is SO MUCH BETTER than A. I actually have damage!)

Soft lock to prevent the forums going

Well, this is a hell of a couple days and no mistake!
(http://img243.imageshack.us/img243/6006/mshard.png)
So, all 1-player danmaku games except SoEW (stupid) and SA and UFO (stupid, but for different reasons) cleared on Hard. And LLS Lunatic! And all Extras (again excepting SoEW[stupid]).
OK, OK! SA Hard runs, go!
-
Whoops. Sorry.
-
(http://img127.imageshack.us/img127/9079/poddcontinuespam2.png)
I can totally 1cc this.
-
Interesting. PoDD-related.
Kana's a good scoring person. In return for dying on Kotohime (bitch) once, I got a net of 9 million points :V
-
Finally a BoWaP lunatic capture after 29 tries. :V
Never bothered to practise it on Normal and Hard so I never captured it on any difficulty before.
So that makes all Stage 1,2,3,5,6 lunatic SA cards captured and the four spells of Satori on Yukari-Reimu route captured! Yaaay!
-
On my non TAS side it became pretty quiet, Last thing i can remeber i accd was a normal UFO lunatic run. finished it but nothing special -> bombs used, lives lost =)
-
So I decided I might as well give LLS Extra No Focus a go. Despite at least five or six different 'wait shit I forgot that happened' moments (I haven't played this stage in months), I cleared on my first attempt with a life and two bombs to spare. That was a lot easier than I remembered. :V
Having said that...
(http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o142/Sapzdude/LLSExtraNF.jpg)
...it looks like Heartbeam is right. I'm pretty sure the third number from the bottom isn't focus seeing as it's close to 100% rather than being 0%, although I have no idea what it actually might be.
At any rate, nine out of ten Extras cleared no focus. That just leaves MS... I'm pretty sure Alice won't be the piece of cake Gengetu was, though.
EDIT: ...Oh, wow. I guess my prediction was sort of wrong. I failed my first attempt at MS Extra no focus, but my second attempt was, err, actually better than any run I've done even with focus.
(http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o142/Sapzdude/MSExtraNF.jpg)
Only two deaths, and I got my first 'captures' for the purple phase, the cheeto lasers and Alice's final phase. :V I wish there was a replay function for MS... pretty proud of that run.
So, that means every Extra stage no focus cleared. Woo! Out of interest, has anyone else done this?
Hmm. Time to start with the tournament grazing challenges next, I think.
-
Captured VoWG hard on my second try with Reimu B :toot:
-
Woo! Out of interest, has anyone else done this?
Lol I doubt, you pretty much need to aim to do it to actually do it, i think noone randomly has done 1-12 extra no focus :P
I only managed it in SA and MOF, but those are the only 2 i tried it on yet. Its been a while ive been doing score runs but If im playing real i focus on normal playthroughs no focus or no vertical (not been too succesful on that vertical part yet =D, my problem is i always wanna do the full 1-6 runs so chances to screw are big, its not that easy ><)
But yea atm i enjoy doing some TAS replays so i wont accomplish alot in close future :P
-

Yeah, Yumemi's evil, I understand.
Kick her ass for the both of us. <3

She's not evil. All you really have to do is get horribly lucky. >_>
-
I'll do it for Rikako someday... But that day is very far away.
-
She's not evil. All you really have to do is get horribly lucky. >_>
Chiyuri > Yumemi in terms of overall difficulty.
I've lost like what, ~30 games to her now? Chiyuri essentially forces you win by scoring / aggressive play when you're using a character such as Kana.
Ugh, might consider swapping to the high-tier AI killers.
-
Baity, there are no high tier AI killers in PoDD. :P There are just those that work slightly more often than the others. You say Yumemi is the best against the AI, and indeed she's who I eventually 1cc'd with, but I failed MANY times before with the opponent dodging her just as well as anyone else.
-
Ever had a single match against Chiyuri go for 9 minutes? Or how about Stages 4-7 which went from 2-4 minutes consistently? That's the result of trying to use Kana. This is starting to get so luck-based I might consider not recording the Chiyuri battle.
Besides who wants to see me getting kicked around by the AI for anywhere from 6-20+ minutes?

You know that PoDD lunatic 1cc I once posted from Nicovideo? The one where the last two stages took 16 minutes? I watched the whole thing. Get to it.
Also wow you can survive Chiyuri for 9 minutes? o_O Her boss attack assures me that that will never happen.

I've strapped on my jetpack and loaded my missiles, and I'm doing alright... I didn't get the first two fights screen-shot'd quickly enough, since I have to switch from fullscreen each time, but I ended DUEL 1 with half a heart against Mima. Elen quickly made me waste a life before I could beat her with 3 hearts left. Reimu and Marisa seem to have given me an easier time.
(http://img444.imageshack.us/img444/7813/duel3.jpg)
(http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/2851/duel4f.jpg)
This is a work in pregress, although I don't think I'm even going to get to Chiyuri at this rate... Still, it's not bad for not having played this game in months, I suppose.
-
Number of people known to have 1cc'd PoDD lunatic: 4
Good job. :D Now if Baity does it we can have 5, a round number.
As for me, I'm trying to figure out Hypercam because it can record on Anex86. I can't seem to get it to record sound...anyone with experience know what's wrong? I've set it to record sound so it's not something as simple as that...

I think that you need to register it to record sound. Totally not worth it :V

But I HAVE "registered" it. >_> I know this because my soundless recordings don't have the infamous watermark.

I lost a life to myself. I'm never gonna get this 1cc... ;_;
(http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/9051/duel5.jpg)
Edit: Kotohime went down pretty easy, actually. Maybe I'll make it to the Chiyuri fight after all... I'll settle for that.
(http://img73.imageshack.us/img73/3236/duel6o.jpg)
Another Edit: This is what happens when I decide to randomly fight without fullscreen. Kana got me with a boss attack early on, but I managed to last... And it's actually worth posting in the accomplishments thread now since I've lived on to battle Chiyuri..

You don't. I record all my videos with an unregistered hypercam.
All that registering it does is remove that "unregistered hypercam" message in the top left that you can normally just crop out anyway. :V
-
Then did you have any problems getting it to record sound? : I have Vista BTW.

I've tried myself with MS and Hypercam and it records sound with like 10 different codecs and settings, so there should be no problems.

Check your volume settings and try to enable Stereo Mix, or your recording volume might be all the way down.

PoDD 1cc with Rikako~
(http://img203.imageshack.us/img203/8205/poddcleareasy.jpg)
Of course, only now do I realize that I've been playing Easy and not Normal the entire time, since I'd assumed it was Normal because I'd never gotten a prompt... And while I didn't lose any lives until I got to Yumemi (http://img2.imageshack.us/i/poddlose1.jpg/) (twice), I did get close on a number (http://img2.imageshack.us/img2/6820/poddclosecall.jpg) of (http://img245.imageshack.us/img245/2953/poddclosecall2.png) occasions (http://img79.imageshack.us/i/poddclosecall3.png/), including a very tense battle against Chiyuri (http://img2.imageshack.us/i/poddclosecall4.png/)... Still, I'm happy for tonight. The last win (http://img245.imageshack.us/i/poddyeaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh.png/) was difficult, but I feel... Accomplished. At least, for now.
-
Play more Reimu and less Marisa.
Ironic that I follow up that statement with a MarisA 1cc (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5413)
Haven't played seriously in at least a month. Fresh run, no practice, no significant restarts (a restart after a stupid pre-Cirno death while doing unfocused power collecting isn't "significant"), so I get stupid shit like dying to a Chen noncard, getting hit by Cherub's Rampage (I think the game pitied me because it was at the end of a border and I kept the spell bonus), ramming a Stage 4 fairy (or something equally as stupid, I forget exactly what happened), and failing a Lyrica streaming noncard. Of course, in the same run, I capture stupid shit like Prismrivers' final, Deadly Dance, and Resurrection Butterfly. I'm not sure whether this belongs in Embarrassing Moments or Accomplishments, but I'll stick it in Accomplishments since I can still capture Resurrection Butterfly.

Where do I check my recording volume? This could be the problem.

As retarded as it sounds, open up VirtualDub, file, capture AVI, audio, windows mixer.
For some reason, I couldn't find it in sound settings.
Stereo mix should be on as Fraps needs that one too to record sound(turned off on me a few times, then after uploading you find out it has no sound.....)
Try turning up your speakers. I've thought that it doesn't record at first since the volume was too low to hear it.
-
I click Windows Mixer and nothing happens. :( Why can't any of this junk ever work right for me?
-
I decided to see if I could record PoDD properly. The results were mixed: recording at fullscreen, it completely messes up the colors, but windowed mode works nice. For comparison:
1. recorded fullscreen:

Yes, PoDD lunatic 1LC, making it two 1cc's in a row. :V
Go Reimu! Go Genji!
edit: I also noticed that I cut off the bottom of the game screen. OH WELL NOW I'LL HAVE TO DO IT AGAIN
edit2: doh, I only needed to set it to 640x480, of course. not sure what to do about the colors. either way I'm somewhat regretting not doing a few proper test runs.
-
Yes, PoDD lunatic 1LC, making it two 1cc's in a row. :V
Go Reimu! Go Genji!
I do believe I'm missing something. Can I have the match durations?
While taking a break from PoDD (damn my fingers hurt), I decided to start up Stage 5 SA again...
...and I just remembered the old days where we tried to time out "Catwalk". That being said, a 1 death timeout (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5415) occurred. Now excuse me while I try to perfect this and stall out PoDD as long as I can.
-
I do believe I'm missing something. Can I have the match durations?
Stage 1 (Ellen) - 1:15
Stage 2 (Rikako) - 1:30
Stage 3 (Reimu) - 1:25
Stage 4 (Kotohime) - 2:05
Stage 5 (Marisa) - 2:30
Stage 6 (Kana) - 1:40
Stage 7 (Mima) - 2:45
Stage 8 (Chiyuri) - 3:00
Stage 9 (Yumemi) - 3:10
I don't have the first successful run recorded but this one was certainly MUCH easier. The first 1cc's stages 1-7 were absolutely brutal. I got even luckier with getting Kana at stage 6, and with Chiyuri eating a ying-yang orb while completely in the clear, but still.
The trick is making the AI's use of its gauge completely useless. If you play smart you can minimize pressure on your side and maximize pressure on the AI - and I'm pretty sure that PoDD's AI does crumble under intense pressure*.
The way to achieve this is putting all your efforts into facing the least boss attacks as possible and dodging the rest, with the only exception being when you get a boss on your face at the very beginning of a round - if this happens you should just shrug and try to dodge everything until it gets countered/shot down/goes away.
The end result is that when shit gets really serious, the AI is often having to deal with a boss attack and you aren't. The rest is more or less trivial dodging.
(edit: notice that a bomb + a lvl1 ofuda charge parked on top of a boss will kill it before the bomb ends, except against Chiyuri who's apparently invincible while she's teleporting around.)
(edit#2: to make things shorter, PoDD is a race for gauge. if you have two bombs, three-quarters gauge and you see the AI charging a boss attack... time to check if you can fill that gauge AND release a counter-boss before things get ugly so you can save the bombs for later. this sort of stuff.)
* I'm almost convinced that this makes PoDD essentially easier than PoFV, where you first must die against Shikieiki at least once and then last upwards of three minutes no matter what, under much more intense, claustrophobic, random accelerating replicating adsfaf fire. Needs more testing, though.
-
Huh, those times are definitely shorter than mine. Guess I should stop using Kana then.

EoSD Extra. This (http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm8508923) one. It's a record for not using Tool-Assist.

I actually learned a moveset in IaMP. :V Shame my fingers are built for individual button pressing and not quickly timed inputs. :( At one point I wasted my entire spell gauge trying to do one move and Reimu kept doing another. It would be so weird if I suddenly actually learned how to play this game and stood a chance at finally beating those three lunatics that still evade me due to hiding in a different genre...
Also I don't give a shit about PoFV. The fact that the game basically MAKES you die before you even stand a chance just pisses me off. I lunatic 1cc'd it with Aya and that's more than enough for me. I prefer PoDD's more "honest" AI. Plus there's no comparison between the two game's music.
-
PoFV.
I lunatic 1cc'd it with Aya and that's more than enough for me.
*cough* copout *cough*
In other news, got to Chiyuri while playing on a tiny window because that's the only way I could get HyperCam to record without changing the colors. :V
...and as I write this I realize that changing the desktop resolution to something smaller would make the game window less tiny. double :V
Also, anything above 12fps capture rate prompts it to stop recording and order me to lower the resolution. Oh well. The end result looks less dreadful than I expected, but it's still dreadful.
-

Post Momizi spam capture, from the very beginning this time. Over 7 months after I devised the strategy to do this, I have finally pulled it off.
-
Okay, after setting desktop resolution to 800x600 so that the Anex86 windowed screen is almost as good as fullscreen, I recorded a PoDD lunatic 1cc. Youtubing it as soon as possible.
That makes it sort of three 1ccs in a row. PoDD is easy, folks.
-
Yes, PoDD lunatic 1LC

Not when your match durations are double for using a "low-tier" AI killer. Which I'm still inclined to do seeing as I've realized several more underhand tricks that I can use :V
For reference, 5 minutes in, Yumemi has half a heart left, and a bomb spare.
-
I just failed a MS lunatic attempt with Yuka. I made it all the way to Shinki, but poor playing in the first two stages and dying with full bombs due to a clipdeath right before Yumeko guaranteed a failed run (and I got hit by Mai. By MAI). However, I got a consolation prize and captured Devil's Recitation (I feel the PC-98 name needs something slightly different, but it's better than having no name at all), as well as only bombing once on the cheeto lasers phase. In case I didn't make that clear, I had no trouble dodging this attack with the slowest character in the game. No excuse people. :V
EDIT: ...I just beat the post Momizi spam AGAIN. That's kinda insulting considering how long it took me to do it the first time. I think it's the fact that I finally learned how to read the waves and how to effectively dodge it, showing an amazing increase in ability since that time...or it was luck. Probably luck.
And I just beat MoF extra with Reimu C because I haven't yet. And for good reason.
-

If you can do "PMBS" 3-4 times in an hour, then you've done what I did 1-2 months ago.
How much longer? (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5420) And why did I make the mistake there, of all places?
-
Thanks to Donut, I randomly picked up IaMP and beat up Remilia with Patchouli in Lunatic, reliving old times. It's sort of an accomplishment since I tend to get bad at games I haven't played in a while.
-
I managed to pull of a Peta Flare timeout. I couldn't timeout Hells Tokamak for whatever reasons so i decided to pull this off instead. Usually i don't like playing Lunatic that much but since this isn't UFO or PC-98 things aren't too ridiculous.

"Wow, that's...that's really impressive, not only did you 1cc PoFV on Lunatic, but it was on your first try t- oh wait you used medicine :V"
God I love using Medicine against Lunatic AI. She's so utterly broken against computer players, it's hilarious.
Also, MS Extra, actually made it past Alice's first phase and had a nearly perfect stage run. =D
-
So I watched ebarrett's vids, and figured out (if it wasn't already completely obvious) that I was playing PoDD very, very badly. I then tried that Normal 1cc again and beat it with only a single loss at Yumemi.
Of course I then promptly completely failed at Hard mode, but still. Baby steps. :V
-
reached Utsuho for the 2nd time in Hard mode :V
This time I got to the second non card =X
-
I find Hell's Tokamak almost pathetic now, even in the middle :V
-
Could it be that this video may start a wave of people who can play PoDD? D: I actually kinda like having PoDD as my sole "rare" achievement... :( Though I suppose I'm the only player who has beaten as many lunatics as I have. :D (ITT e-penis, ignore).
Also I think I'm actually going to try and learn IaMP. See you at the funeral. o/

-
now what's wrong with using medicine. Give me a break :(
-
PoDD is the only PC-98 game I've really played, but it's because of Rikako~
-
Well I've finally beat my high score in PCB lunatic without even going for a high score. I believe I got 1.36bil but I'm too lazy to post a replay of it...
I've also got me 3 billion points in Imperishable Night for the first time ever, one again playing normally without trying to score.
-
now what's wrong with using medicine. Give me a break :(
Well, Medicine's EX-attacks, that is attacks that get unleashed upon the enemy through combos and the destruction of spirits, are these poison clouds that don't harm you directly but slow you down when you are in them.
The Lunatic AI usually doesn't move any more than neccessary, sitting in front of the bullet until the last frame before it would get hit. Then it dogdes the bullet with full speed and extreme precision.
Now, if the lunatic AI is inside a slowing poison cloud, this method will fail very often, leading to a (comparatively) easy victory even on lunatic. Something similar but not as drastic happens when you use Aya's high speed EX-bullets against the AI.
So, on topic:
After a few humiliating tries on UFU Extra failing hard on Kogasa and sending my history for Heian Clouds to 3/6 *cough* , I somehow improved by several degrees, not only beating Nue for the first time with MarisaB but also doing it with 2 spare lives and capturing Rainbow UFOs and Nightmare of Heiankyou for the first time.
I still fail hard on the Green UFOs without SanaeB, though. :V
-
I still fail hard on the Green UFOs without SanaeB, though. :V
Green? Just make sure that you are always on the side of the screen, not a single laser column closer to the center. Then just ignore the lasers and read the small bullets. Easiest UFO card by far :V
-
Could it be that this video may start a wave of people who can play PoDD?
I admit I really wanna play PoDD, but mainly as Rikako and I'm told she's so terrible she's almost unusable...
Interestingly, this is consistant with my PoFV chara of choice (Reisen), so maybe I just have bad luck when it comes to the people I like to play as...
-

PoDD Normal 1cc with Marisa
Oh god half a heart against yumeni at 1/2 heart too...OH GOD THERE IS "WARNING" EVERY SECOND ! Ping Pong with attacks ! (without touching anything but the directional arrows)
-
Got a random stage 2 no deaths in UFO hard. Also captured Parasol Memories whatever and train for the first time. ReimuA :V
Hell's Tokamak is easy just for 1 reason.....it can't wall you, period. If you die, it's because you screwed up, not because you forgot to stream it or the bullets didn't allow you to.

I finally got around to unlocking PoFV Extra. :V
/me goes to attempt it with near enough no idea what it involves

Strangely enough, I find PoFV Extra to be EASIER than PoFV Normal O_o; The enemy seems to dodgehax five times as long on Normal as opposed to the timer on Extra followed by the AI utterly failing to dodge...

/me beats the first two stages
OH MAN
THIS IS FUN
IT'S LIKE I'M PLAYING A REAL TOUHOU GAME

You can also give yourself (and/or the AI) 0.5 health for match mode.

I just beat IaMP normal with only one death using Yukari (GOD FUCK SHIT DAMN BITCH YOUMU STOP INFINITYING ME ON DOUBLE PAIN). I know she's supposed to be hard to use, but for some reason I'm determined to learn how to use her even a little bit.
[ruro]AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA[/ruro]

1 death Hard Byakuren.
Could of been 0 deaths if I would only bomb LFS a bit more.
....on the other hand, I've died THREE TIMES IN THE STAGE. Go me.

That doesn't really change much for me. I find myself dying to Hells Tokamak more often than i get a wall at Peta Flare.

PoFV Extra cleared~
That was pretty straightforward. Hmm, what to do next...?
-
So I started a game of PoDD to 1cc Normal.
I did not realize, however, that it was set to LUNATIC. AAAAAAGH
But I made it to stage 7, and knocked Rikako down to half a heart! Woooo!
-
After finally getting around finishing off MS Normal 1ccs with Reimu, I went and tried out Hard Mode with Marisa. Seeing as all my normal runs were terrible and often 0 lives left, I figured I'd suck.
Well, I have to say it was the first time I've genuinely had fun playing MS, and cleared 3/2 on my first try. WAAAAY better then I ever did on Normal. Yay~
-
PoFV Extra cleared~

Heh, thanks. :P I'm pretty sure you could beat PoFV Extra, though... it's somewhat tough but it's I think less than ten minutes long total, so it's not a big deal to keep retrying until you get a good run through, and there's no learning involved like with the other Extras. IMO, it's easier than a Normal 1cc.
-
PoFV Extra
it's easier than a Normal 1cc.
This.
You can gain up to eight lives in PoFV extra. For nine levels. Some characters are better than others for scoring, though, and it also takes some luck to score enough to gain all the extra lives.

SA Normal 1cc
Jesus christ this took a while =(
I almost 1cc'd it on Hard while resting between my Normal attempts... >_>
Anyway, reached Utsuho with something ridiculous like 7 lives. Finished with only 1... at least I beat her.
Another accomplishment was a game over at Hell's Tokamak on Hard =)

Something similar with Kanako
Holy damn. You really don't like your final bosses, do you? :P It's usually the opposite for me... lose most of my lives by Stage 5 and do really well Stage 6, scraping a clear by the skin of my teeth (with the exception of IN <_<). Anywho, congrats.
-
What what? I can still 1cc a Touhou game on Normal? Why yes. Yes I can.

Now if only I could 1cc something other than EoSD....
-
Timed out Vajra of Perfect Buddhism on Hard....while going for a capture.
:V
-
Here's an Apollo 13 capture (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5448) where I dodge the pattern in the bottom center instead of the standard tactic which is go to to the sides and do it there. Oh, and I used the large-hitbox Ghost Team, even though that doesn't really make a difference in this game.
I actually did it three times; the first took about 30 attempts, the second about 30 more (with pretty much all of the failures being clipdeaths, usually to the second or third wave), and the third took 2 tries. I was thinking of trying to time it out, but I was getting tired of it so I stopped. I might do it later though. I just uploaded this because I was hoping it would show people that this pattern is in fact not luck-based.
-
If you think Apollo 13 is luck based, then just do this (http://h1.ripway.com/Azure/th8_ud1-13.rpy). (I haven't tried it on Lunatic, but from the looks of it it should work there too. And it's not specific to the small-hitbox characters either.)

Yes, I DO have a problem with last bosses...
I get too anxious or something.. I can only ever finish games if I perfect them and then reach the last boss with as many lives as I can. Except EoSD because Remilia is a joke.
Anyway it was a funny accomplishment that I 1cc'd a game on normal and almost 1cc'd the same game on hard on the same day =P
Maybe tomorrow...
-
Remilia is a joke.

I managed to cap Most Valuable Vajra on Easy. I so haet that card, so capping it, on any difficulty, is an accomplishment.
Tangentially related, despite failing harder than I usually do on UFO (including deaths on Absolute Justice, An Unarguable Youkai Punch, and just barely failing Flying Fantastica), I manage a 1cc, if just barely.

Well I have only played her up to Hard, and I have beaten her no deaths... Compared to other bosses on Hard, she's the easiest imo :V
-
On lunatic, she's considered the hardest. I personally think overall Kaguya is harder though...>.>
-
Overall, it looks like Remilia is one of the most boring. RED BULLETS. HEY, MORE RED.
In an awful, yet successful 1cc run, I captured Flying Fantastica on Normal.
With Reimu B. So I can see why forward focus types can be good.
But more motivation was that I had zero lives and zero bombs after bombing Devil's Recitation.

Color =/= entertainment. Tell that to the fans of Mushihimesama. :V Gameplay-wise Remilia is one of the most intense because no matter how good you are it's possible you're going to get walled.

Odd that I hadn't done this yet...PoDD Normal 1cc!
All Touhous 1cc'd on Normal or above...except...the Highly Responsive to Prayers.
Ugh.
-

Glad to see I'm not alone in this...
Really, IN is the only game I can play the higher difficulties of and it's clear to me Kaguya is indeed more difficult than Eirin on stuff above Normal and Easy. I think she's just equal to or easier to Eirin on those modes because you can't continue against her and if you're playing on an easier difficulty that's a fairly notable disadvantage...
In other news I've gotten the hang of the EX stage of IN better. I can now reach Mokou with reasonable resources (which I am garunteed to lose since I can't handle EX bosses yet... >.<).

Close enough, since most still agree that Remilia (and Yuyuko, for that matter) are more difficult than Kaguya. =V
I had to bombspam Kaguya using Neitherworld team to beat her and 1CC the game. Using Marisa B I could capture 2 of Remilia's cards when I 1CC'd the game. Yuyuko doesn't count since I used Marisa B and got free double damage to make her noncards less a pain.
-
I decided to play PCB Hard completely on a whim, and almost beat Youmu. Which is strange because I've never made it to the Prismriver sisters before.

My HRtP lunatic 1cc is finally uploaded, but...as you can see, there are some problems. :V I have no idea why the video recorded a bunch of blank space (along with the FPS WTF I thought I turned that off) or why encoding saw fit to squish the video (the original recording was normal, though it had that black space), so I hope I can figure this out. In the mean time though, behold proof that HRtP doesn't need skill to beat.
-
Sorry for the double post, but I FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY perfected Sanae. I didn't perfect the stage along with her, but that makes 3 stage 5 bosses perfected on lunatic (and I don't exactly think I'm going to be perfecting Sakuya, Orin, or Syou any time soon...). Before that, I also beat stage 4 no deaths due to pulling off at least five death bombs successfully.

Hm. Let's see... You can avert this easily using VirtualDub. After importing the video in go into the Video Tab at the top, and go Filters. Select Add, and add... say a Brightness / Contrast Filter. Leave it at Normal and 100% B/C. Now select the Filter and click on Cropping... Edit the video dimensions as required. If you're unsure of where to cut it, just click OK and check the Output dimensions.

Yeah, it's still intense. But it just seems like... a lack of variety, for a lack of a way to explain it.
But Mushihimesama is all purple bullets, isn't it? Just mass chaos in the form of purple...
More perfect Shou battles using Marisa B in gradually improving 1cc's. She's becoming a pushover...

Ooh...ooh...I should have known. :V
BTW I did two back to back lunatic 1ccs of HRtP lunatic both routes, and for the first time with "default lives." Until now I've played with 4 starting lives instead of 3 for arbitrary reasons, so I stepped down and did both routes to prove I don't need that extra life. I also discovered the trick to Kikuri's first phase: Screw trying to survive, focus all your efforts on hitting her four times to end it.
-

Yeah, I realize that now. Still seems trivial on anything at Hard and below though. Also, since I forgot to address it:

... Sakuya I understand (rank). Orin... might take a bit, but she's really nothing compared to these other two really. Syou is Syou on Lunatic though.
[Fangame-related]
Attempted a "solo" Marisa Boss Attack of Mystical Chain (Hard obviously, seeing as I haven't even done it on Lunatic yet, which is proving to be quite frustrating). Made it pretty far, until I got killed by PC-98 Alice's Mystic Records' "Fobidden P"
.
Also, it appears that Remi + Flan were changed a bit (read: made much easier), since I took them down in 6 minutes at Lunatic. Could just be me getting better though :V

Donut complains about messed up videos
You should see the lightspeed videos I'm getting. Switching sound off for both the games and the recording does wonders for performance but throws synchronization completely out of whack. Completely unsalvageable stuff.
Donut perfects Sanae
I think I have a one-bomb, no-deaths lunatic Sanae replay parked somewhere.... never thought of it as much of an achievement, really, considering I got it pretty much out of nowhere during the first stage 5 practice I ever did. Bombed like crazy during the stage, though, since it's easy to get to Sanae with full power either way.
edit: two bombs. :( essentially miles away from no-bombs.
one on her midboss noncard and one on her first boss card. MarisaC by the way, I failed to get three options to hit on pretty much all attempts though. :V
-
This.
You can gain up to eight lives in PoFV extra. For nine levels. Some characters are better than others for scoring, though, and it also takes some luck to score enough to gain all the extra lives.
Hmm? Really? I think my best run was stage 4 (maybe 5 but I doubt it) and I had no extra lives earned ??? And I don't think it's really a skill problem because the enemy simply dies before I get time to get an insane point combo.
GIVE ME TIPS!11!!!!
-
On lunatic, she's considered the hardest. I personally think overall Kaguya is harder though...>.>
Definitely. :V I can consistently beat EoSD Stage 6 with only one death; compare that with IN 6B, which during my 1cc accounted for more than half of my deaths in the whole run (five deaths to that stage, IIRC).
-

With all the wallshit involved, they are indeed "impossible requests" at times.

On Hard, only Hourai Jewel is really hard. But on Lunatic... gah, everything other then Dragon Bullet is just WALLS WALLS WALLS. And how the hell are you supposed to do the second nonspell?!
...anyway *calms down*, got to Hourai Jewel on IN Lunatic with Border Team. Had two stupid deaths on Kaguya without bombing, so I might've won, but I still feel good about it. Also capped everything in Spell Practice Stage 1~5 except Stage 3/4A's Lunatic Last Spell, which I can't unlock gaaah
-

That's only her Kaguya's first card. The rest of the stuff is mostly pretty simple.

Buddha's Stone Bowl has completely walled me before with the star shots in a rather large space between the lasers... So I kinda do think she's luck based too =/
-
Just because there's a chance of getting walled for a few spells doesn't mean the whole boss is luck-based. I can consistently beat Hard Kaguya with only one or two deaths, but I can hardly even beat any of the other final bosses on Hard without getting a game over, even if I reach them with almost full lives. The trick for most of her spells is to stay as high up as you can while still having a chance to respond, and dodge everything early. If there's no opening, follow the bullets downwards until there is. It's a pretty basic strategy, but it seems to work well for a lot of Kaguya's spells, especially Buddha's Stone Bowl. Also, Spell Practice can help, of course.
Then again, things might be completely different on Lunatic, or I might just play IN too much and not the others...
-

If i said i had never lost to it i would be lying but the higher difficulties add those aimed waves which can make the spell even more claustrophobic and thus cause the wall. Normal gives you a lot of space to move around but then again, it is quite a long time ago i played normal regularly. I have only done it once recently and i captured all she had except for the first spell. Everything else seemed pretty easy aside from LSI (Whatever it wanna be called on Normal, Shallow Cowrie Shell or something like that) which was a close call but still pretty managable.
Ah yes, speaking of LSI. I've gotten a much better capture rate of the card now. Its something like 1/4 or something. I don't know how you are supposed to do it consistently though. I often get shot by those red bullets or get trapped in too tight corners to be able to dodge the stars...
Its not THAT bad though. At least not compared to several UFO cards. And some Pre-UFO cards as well.

AHHH JESUS CHRIST SHINKI IS TERRIFYING
(http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o142/Sapzdude/MSLunatic1cc.jpg?t=1255892715)
...but not that hard. ;) MS Lunatic 1cc, hell yes! That makes seven.
Holy damn, this game REALLY doesn't give you much room at all for error. I perfected the first three stages and my first death was to the bulletspam at the start of Stage 5, and I was still down to my last life by the time Shinki was over. I think Yumeko must have killed me something like three times, once due to a laser actually spawning on me during the streaming part.
That Shinki battle, though... @_@ I went in 3/3, and perfected the first few phases. Then Shinki's wings start to appear, I fly above her... BAM, Shinkibug'd, and since I tried to death bomb while I was going 'wait what' I was left at 2/2. Did pretty well on that phase and the next phase, and then there were the cheeto lasers, which brought me down to 1/0. 'Captured' the phase with red arrow walls and purple streamed bullets. The Devil's Recitation was probably the best one I've ever done, one death and no bombs, only dying to the really fast section near the end. So unbelievably tense. 'Captured' the loleasy final phase, of course, but seriously... that bug death messed with my mind quite a bit during that.
Glad that's finally over, though, I've been attempting that on and off for a couple of months now. That just leaves SA and UFO.
Also ignore the MSN mouseover text in the screenshot which I didn't notice until after I closed the game. <_<
-
Perfected Mugetu at yellow power. I don't really know how that happened, considering I usually die about 2-3 times on her. :D

Yukari: WHAT'S MY NAME BITCH?
IaMP hard 1cc. :D I discovered the secret to this game: Road signs. Farthest reaching attack of its kind, counterhits dash attacks (which the AI LOVES), and the AI keeps on falling for it. Thanks to them, I reached Suika with only one death (because Yuyuko's second spell card makes it so that you can't even shoot without getting hit).
The rage started on her second spell card. For some reason (probably her slow speed), Yukari can't dash out of the way of the incoming loli from above like everyone else, so the only recourse I can see is to gap away. This would be fine, except that I so suck at 421s that half the time it doesn't work! DX I lost whole lifebar (thankfully not a full life in this game) because of that! Still, I managed to reach Pandemonium with 1 1/2 lives. While dodging the easy first two phases, an idea suddenly clicked with me: If Patchy can take the easy way out via ROYARU...FUREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE, maybe Yukari can do a similar thing? Once the third phase started charging, I took the time to activate my spell card (Charming Quadruple Barrier) and let loose. It grants total invulnerability and can damage Suika up in the air. I also happened to have 6 whole uses of this, and even though her black hole started decreasing the usefulness of this, by the time I ran out (and immediately died), I had only one more air kick left to produce the above screenshot.
AWESOME!!!!!
-
Congrats~! At this rate, you could 1cc every game in the series on Lunatic. Then you'll start running out of things to do~
I went back into StB and capped 6 more spellcards, putting me at 50 cleared. 6-1 is so easy after you realize its just streaming.

Youmu Solo no focus timeout of Scarlet Destiny (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5480).
...That was disappointingly easy, actually. I was expecting a real challenge from this seeing as I remembered it being really fast, tight dodging, but after a few attempts I saw a reliable route, and yeah. Bah... I really need a new goal now that I've finally managed MS, but I don't feel like doing for another 1cc for a while. Can't really think of anything challenging along those lines now that I haven't got any no-focus Extras left, either... anyone have a suggestion? :V

Perfect EoSD extra no focus with Marisa B.
Oh, and I should probably check out SWR and UNL since I haven't even beaten them on normal before, but making a spell card deck is... :effort:.

This is sort of something I've been trying for a while now. I've actually being trying it on Hard, though; furthest I managed on that was 20 seconds remaining, although I still managed to die twice after that. I doubt I'd do as well on Lunatic, but still... I'll definitely give that a go, too.
Any attempts are going to have to wait until tomorrow, though, becauasjdhhhhhhh

Probably only marginally related, but I made some touhou chars as commanders for Age of Wonders: Shadow Magic, and managed to complete a number of missions using them.

Spam Level 2 spells :V
No seriously, that's it. You gain score like whoa in PoFV Extra, I recall getting at least two spare lives during my Cirno vs. Yuka match (I didn't complete that run btw because Shiki is a cheating bitch :V). Level 2 spells can be quickly cast if you're not using lolyoumu, clear tons of shit, and depending on your character, kill tons of fairies which results in massive amounts of points.

Rawr MoF Normal 1cc! Two down! It's by no means a good 1cc, especially since I screwed up on Sanae several times that could have definitely been avoided. The last spell came down to the wire though, and I almost failed because I crashed into one amulet, but death bomb ftw ^_^

Yes you can. You probably just haven't spent 100+ attempts at the easy version.

The reason this is an accomplishment is that in doing this I still managed no-focus captures of every Patchy card and every Flan card minus Four of a Kind, Kagome Kagome, ATWTBN and Q.E.D. :V Here's a replay (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5492).

Double post because it's completely unrelated: I think I'm finally starting to get the hang of the versus danmaku games. PoFV Hard 1cc'd (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5495) on my first attempt, using Reimu. Lost once to Sakuya, Komachi and Shiki (surprise surprise), and finished with a life spare. Kind of odd, actually... the final match only lasted just over two minutes. Well, whatever. :V
/me prepares to get raped by Lunatic
-
Reached Shiki with 2 lives on my first lunatic PoFV 1cc attempt. Took 2 continues to beat her :V
The stuff leading to Shiki isn't hard, but these walls....ffffffffffffffffff
-

This, basically. Died once to each of stages 6-8, died four times to Shiki before beating her. Still... I think I can probably do this. Time to try with Marisa.

VoWG Lunatic Timeout Attempt.
Got to 66 seconds on the timer before dying from a tight dodge that I misjudged. 3 death timeout, overall.
-
EDIT: Also, is it just me or is VoWG Hard a little more dense than VoWG Lunatic with the luna one compensating with much higher speed? It seemed that way last time i tried the card at Hard.
VoWG Hard gets more dense a good bit into the spellcard. Using a high-power shot type, its easily possible to end it before it even gets hard. The lunatic version seems BS the entire time, PLUS its faster.
-
So I managed to clear MS Lunatic, on my last life on my last continue.
...this is with getting to Yumeko before continuing once.
OHGODDEVIL'SRECITATIONWHAT
At least I made it above the wings this time. Also, I think I died once - once - on THREE CONTINUES - with no bombs left. And I think only once, maybe twice with one bomb.
Yeah. Almost every death was two or three bombs. MS does NOT like me. But we'll try to work through that.
And I captured Shinki's final phase, though it's really quite easy, so not much of an accomplishment there...
-
So, I just 1cc'd MoF Normal again after having not played it (or Touhou in general) for a while. Didn't game over ONCE in all those attempts. There wasn't ONE place where I actually saw what killed me and didn't find the death facepalmworthy, and I reached Virtue of Wall God (I refuse to think of it as anything else) on my last life, two power left. I cannot believe I actually beat that card without dying... I've definitely improved at Touhou over time.
-
Just beat MS extra with only one death. Reimu's better than I thought...
-
Just beat MS extra with only one death. Reimu's better than I thought...
Thats because she isn't Sakuya-fast like Mima, or StB-Aya-slow like Yuka. Which is why I like using Marisa.
And homing shots are nice too, I guess~
I consider that fact that, after an hour of practice, I almost 100% cap all of Kogasa's spellcards on UFO Hard (SCREW YOU, TRAIN OF AWESOME, thats more like 33%), an accomplishment. Now to do Ichirin, on whom I can't do crap consistently :'(
-
SoEW Hard 1cc.
Thank you and mother#@$%ing good night.
-
So, I just captured Repository of Hirokawa on Easy~ That means that ALL PCB EASY CARDS CAPTURED!!!!
What makes it even better, I also captured Sumizome Perfect Blossom again so that now the game will actually SHOW that I've captured all the cards~
-
EoSD Lunatic Full Run Status:
Stages 1-3 cleared with no deaths. This replay is getting saved no matter what, so you can see me twitch dance like a scorerunner. Well, onto Stage 4~
EDIT: Stage 4 went meh. Stage 5 I did stupid things. This... isn't looking too great.
EDIT 2: Entering Stage 6 at 3/2. I'm scared about "Eternal Meek".
Will I make it? Or will I crumble like I do every time in Stage Practice? Find out!

'Bout time. :P
Speaking of which, I finally captured Border of Life and Death without abusing the safespot. I still ended up in it on the last phase, but it was purely accidental and I did more than my fair share of dodging to get that far.

Don't ask. The replay used standard lives. Maybe it counts deathbombs?

PCB Lunatic 1cc (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5503). Ignore the stupid deaths please :V
-
Near the end of my first round against Shikieki, I had a sudden realisation... after charging a level 2, isn't it a better idea to wait with it until it becomes useful rather than just using it straight away?
(http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o142/Sapzdude/PoFVLunatic.jpg?t=1256048136)
/me recovers from his state of shock and cackles
Is that really all you've got, Shiki? Two minutes?
PoFV Lunatic 1cc (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5504)! And with a life to spare.
Admittedly most of those two minutes were sticking around 300-500k+ for both of us, but still... the AI faceplanting into a yin-yang orb during the first minute is pretty funny.
-

Lunatic version does do a lot of nasty stuff. One thing in particular i hate is when it gives you basically no option but to move through the waves of amulets. It happens quite a lot in this video i just put up.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BY3rlx6Le_g
PS: First VoWG Cap. Had it lying around my hard drive but didn't bother to upload it before now. The capture rate says 1/25. I really don't recall i got it that fast.
-
Reached RTG on UFO Hard.
I could 1cc it if I'd stop dying with both bombs and figure out more spellcards.
-
http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5487
Seriously. Stop worrying and love the bomb.
Actually I beat VoWG with 0 lives and 4 bombs so ... it's not too bad :V
-
*cough* *cough*
UFO hard 1cc! 8)
So, with all hard modes of the regular danmaku games finished, that would mean I have to start trying lunatic now, right?
...I'm so dead...
-
Perfect Hard Ichirin fight. Unfortunately, in practice.

Ichirin isn't really that hard on hard. I can 1 bomb her consistently- (stupid first spellcard that shakes the screen) all her spells simply rely on knowing what to do. Lunatic seems to be a different story....

PoDD Hard 1cc. :V Definitely getting the hang of the versus games at last.

If only Shou wasn't so clippy to the extent that every single attack requires a bomb....
-
Got to Yumemi on Hard with a life in stock, got another life while fighting her, still game overed.
Ah well, not bad for a first try.
-
IT WORKS! AH HA HA HA!
Thanks to some help in the rage thread, I can finally record PC-98 on Anex86, no slowdown! :D I did a test recording for LLS extra and it works perfectly (other than the out of synch sounds caused by Anex86 and not the recording itself), and doesn't even split videos randomly like Fraps does. Even though I managed to activate and survive Gengetu Rape Time, I'm not uploading it; I may as well do a good run after all.
-
YES! I did it! All Easy mode cards in the series captured! YES!!!!
-
Meh, double post, whatever.
I did a no focus, no bombs clear of EoSD Easy. Barely made it through, but I did...
-
YES! I finally made a decent recording of a HRtP lunatic Makai route 1cc! :D This playthrough not only demonstrates skill (I actually play a decent number of stages without bomb spam), but also showcases the bosses without me looking TOO horrible. Now for the pain of compressing them all...and the fact that this time I'm going to figure out how to crop them.
-
Captured World in Nightmare (7-2), Perfect Maid (7-7), Butterfly Dream Pill -Nightmare Type- (9-3) and Sakuya's nonspell (7-1)! :D
-
Because donut had to be all :smug: I decided to one-up him.

Yes, that's NBB (for No Borders Broken)

Since this is now the video accomplishments thread as well:
Finally I managed to find a way to record PC-98 in HIGH quality, I mean really excellent. Of course, I needed another PoDD lunatic 1cc to celebrate (and record, duh), which took me all of one try to get. ;D
It was close (no lives left), but Yumemi kinda self-destructing (after trying hard once but failing because I self-destructed faster) made the ending a bit anticlimatic, especially in comparison to the Mima and Chiyuri fights (one and two lives lost there respectively).
Youtubing it as soon as I chop it into pieces, encode, etc

If you think you're going to make me jealous by not misdirecting Youmu's non-spells, too bad. :P I EARNED that perfect through 3 months of off and on playing, and something as trivial as that won't hurt me, especially since the whole reason I became obsessed with perfecting the stage was because one random run I decided to fight Youmu without misdirecting, died, then proceeded to perfect the rest of the battle, including my first captures of Hell God Sword and Asura Sword.
Also, my HRtP run is almost compressed...I've been doing this all night. D: Uploading will have to wait for tomorrow...

That was one hour's worth of work (even less actually). "Hell God Sword" was nothing. And to me, it will always be nothing; it's easier than other Stage 5 Spell Cards. But enough of a rant there. Now you go try and do SA Stage 5.

Blah blah blah blah blah. :V It also took you less time to beat Evil Eye Sigma, and you know why? Because you did them when you were better at Touhou than I was when I did them. And I don't know where I'm going with this but MEH. :( You got better so much faster than me, clearly you cheated! STEROIDS! DEATH! DEATH I SAY!
Clearly you can see what a night of reading TVtropes while waiting for your videos to crop and compress can do. :V I'm saving the final cropped video now, to which I shall compress and then collapse into a heap of exhaustion.

Ichirin harder than Murasa? I don't think so.
Ichirin have a bunch of rather simple non-spells, two spellcards that are sort of easy and of course the shitty first one that not only obscures your sight but shakes the screen as well. (Excellent design there Junya-san.)
Murasa's spellcards (not counting the first one) is more difficult than Ichirin. The second one have screwed me over way too many times (it took me longer to cap the Lunatic version than it took me to cap VoWG.) and the third one is just outright confusing. I'm told to read it and dodge accordingly but i just don't know how to tell which direction those bullets are going.
So yeah, Murasa's more difficult than Ichirin. Ichirin is just having the benefit of having a shitty first spell and an absolutely horrible stage.
Though contradictory to the above, i did die two times on Ichirins second card during my 1cc and got an almost perfect Murasa battle because i had no bombs... and i finished with four lives. Seriously Banana, its not that hard to do. Its just frustrating as hell when you have to restart.
PS. MarisaB UFO extra clear. Absolutely terrible girl for that stage. Sucks to the core. But now that she's out of the way there is only ReimuB...
PPS: Almost Perfect Kogasa battle at Lunatic. Died twice to shitty non-spell (no.2) but captured all cards, the final two with 2.xx power. That stage two boss is inferior to all the others. She forgets that there is a limit to how powerful a stage 2 boss should be.
I guess this line doesn't make any sense anymore.
It was nothing special. I mean, she's still a Stage 2 boss after all.
-
StB Levels 6-3, 6-4, 6-7 and 7-2 captured!
I still can't clear any other stage 6, 7, 8 or 9 Levels :V
-
I'm THIS close to cap the whole Stage 6 in StB.
-
Aaaaaaaaaaaaand extra PoFV cleared :V Could've done it earlier but had to study and driving practice. I knew I was gonna do it when I already earned a life after cirno, then beat yuka without dying, reached stage 9 with 3 lives and earned an extra one during my first round!

FUCK YEAH, I'M AWESOME
clearing UFO Hard since my score corrupted, then suddenly I get a 2 bomb 1 death run of stage 5, enter stage 6 with 3 lives 0 bombs and clear it with 2 lives 2 bombs.
Also captured LFO for the first time ever on ANY difficulty since I'm so goddamn fucking awesome
I CAN TOTALLY 1CC THIS SHIT WITH 5 LIVES SPARE
seriously
EDIT: captured LFO again, 2/2 history now :V
EDIT2: 3/3 olol
how the hell did I have 0/20 on both normal and hard
-
Played through EosD Lunatic to unlock stages for practice. Made it to Scarlet Meister in first credit. Guess i could 1cc this one if i went and practiced the stages since i didn't really have any idea what i was doing a lot of the time and died to ridiculous places in stage 5 and 6.
FUCK YEAH, I'M AWESOME
EDIT: captured LFO again, 2/2 history now :V
EDIT2: 3/3 olol
What is LFO?

What is LFO?
Legendary Flying it says "Saucer" damnit Object - Byakuren's final card, IIRC? (Not like I've gotten any farther than Shou's second non-card in UFO myself. On Easy. >_>)

*shrug* I dunno. That's what people started calling it, it stuck, I guess. I'm not sure off the top of my head which word the English patch decided to use.

3/5 now. Still not that bad.
Unless I screw up, stage 6 could be no deaths or 1 death.
Still not too good at Shou though. The spamwaves and the final orb spam from both sides....I can do it at times, but not always.
Nazrin's SC is always a bomb, same for 1st and 2nd Shou's noncards, Radiant Treasure Gun=autobomb, second card is easy(perfect history atm), third noncard is readable but sometimes a death, the laser spin actually isn't that hard if you have 3+ power, but I find it better to autobomb it under that.
The curvy lasers are overrated - it's the speed of the fast ones that come at an angle which will kill you.

'nut coined "LFO". Didn't use LFS after I told him because it didn't sound as cool.
-
Yeah, my mind must have processed it as "Legendary Flying Object" because it sounds much more badass than "Legendary Flying Saucer."
And I'mma gonna upload my HRtP lunatic run soon.
'kay, it's all uploaded.
-
Legendary Flying Object is what the original translation was(on the wiki)(was changed to Saucer though). Sounds cooler anyways. Thus, I'm used to saying LFO.

I thought it might be time to move my no focus Extra runs up a notch. So, err, PCB Extra No Focus No Deaths clear (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5538). Borders were used in an incredibly paranoid fashion, but still. :V
Also, sort-of-related, UFO Extra (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-0aUiji4Qg) No Focus (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbdrIvDl-Uo) is up on YouTube.

About 6:17 to 6:30 here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Irx2kBx2gEE).

I still don't know why I didn't just bomb. But watching again this particular bit of recklessness I also discovered something new which should be obvious for everyone to see - I'm beginning to understand what Baity meant by
underhand tricks that I can use :V

Just got to Shou's laser spin... First time I even tried UFO on Hard... not too bad.. It's harder than anything I've played before...
I was very satisfied =)
-
I reached Ran's final card. And came pretty freaking close to capturing it, got it down to like 1/8 health. Of course, I didn't ACTUALLY capture it, and I was on last life and out of bombs too, but...
Anyway, expect a PCB Extra clear soon. I'm so close... Now if only my keyboard would stop glitching and up + left would equal up-left instead of up-right <_<

Watching Yumemi explode is soo satisfying. :D
Man, really didn't think I could pull this off, I thank Yumemi for being extremely suicidal during the last stage. :V
What's even more weird is that it was a one-life clear, although there was a very close call at Chiyuri were she died just before twenty or more spirits came crashing onto my face.
(http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/4803/podd1ccpart3.jpg)
More people should play PoDD, it's fun.
I would even go as far as to say it's more fun than PoFV once you get the mechanics down.
It's more fair at the least.

Exactly my thoughts. :)
I've lost count of how many times I pulled off a comeback in PoDD, contrary to PoFV where the AI gets down to its last hit and then proceeds to last forever while you get two thousand bullets to the face.

Congrats. Soon this won't be a notable achievement anymore. :(
-

Probably everything we consider "notable" has been done by at least fifty people in Japan. Blindfolded. With their feet.
And while Chiyuri is infinitely harder than Komachi, Yumemi is a cakewalk next to Shikieiki. The real problem with PoDD is that stages 1-7 can still put a significant dent in your total lives if you're careless/unlucky while PoFV's stages 1-7 can't.
edit: also what good is being one out of a handful of people who did something nobody cares about? PoDD was taboo and largely considered luck-based bullshit, now everyone is at least trying it because it's fun and relatively fair.

For PoDD I'd say 7-9 are the tough stages while in PoFV it's 6-9, not 8 and 9 on both... my PoFV Lunatic 1cc had one death on each stage from 6 to 9. To me, Stage 6 Marisa seems at least as hard as Stage 8 Komachi, if not harder. :V Granted, Shiki is still the hardest by quite a lot, though.

It increases the feeling of accomplishment. Like, at the time I beat Evil Eye Sigma, there was exactly two other members of the community that I know of who had done the same. The feeling I got when I did it was indescribable. I suppose it's just a petty thing to me though. My ultimate goal now is to be the first person to do everything. To beat every game on lunatic.
Speaking of which, I'm going to get to starting work on SWR soon...I swear...

-

What Donut said.
Also being one of the five people in the world outside of Japan to do this sounds really impressive and is worth every hardship that it takes to accomplish this.
I was shaking in happiness for half an hour after I pulled off that 1LC.
I even did a little dance. :V
Probably everything we consider "notable" has been done by at least fifty people in Japan. Blindfolded. With their feet.
I don't compare the accomplishments of the West with those of Japan, seeing as competing against them is completely impossible.
Compare it with ice skating, where the longest track is 1o km for the men (Japan) and 5 km for the women (the West).
-
Fun fact: PoDD Lunatic with Reimu or Yumemi = PoDD Hard with any other character. That being said I did pull off a 1cc with Reimu.
Allow me to say that was probably the most unsatisfying 1cc I've ever done.
-
Meh I did A short Run of IN Hard as a test I got to stage 4 and only lost 1 life before I had to exit the game.
It's good for me. Considering it ran at about 90 FPS most of the time.
-
That's funny, I hear its fun because it's even MORE insane than PoFV. =V
It is more "insane" as in, the play area is much smaller and stuff flies much faster at you, but there's much less stuff flying around as well. PoFV tends to get claustrophobic, which is a different kind of hard.
Fun fact: PoDD Lunatic with Reimu or Yumemi = PoDD Hard with any other character. That being said I did pull off a 1cc with Reimu.
True and it was about time already congratulations. I should get working on a Kana 1cc again but I want to beat Yumemi in match mode first to make sure it is doable at my current level.
-
Ah speaking of which, the Kana 1cc I was working on had some interesting quirks in it you should know. For starters, you should be prepared to outlast your opponent. Think PoFV Lunatic Story Mode but without the second round nonsense (so matches going from 3-5 minutes and higher).
Also, your Boss Attack will be most likely your own undoing. It all boils down to luck when you use a Boss Attack to counter. If you get unlucky, Kana will spam snowball circles... and the opponent makes good use of that.
Though, you probably already know all this from experience.

The snowballs fly even faster as your Score Counter increases :V
Right, with that done, I guess I'll go and improve my current 1cc's. I should also get around to practicing LLS and MS more too.
EDIT: http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm1500048
IIRC that's the 1cc done with Chiyuri. That's PoDD Lunatic with no High-Tier landslide victories.

1. From what I've tried (all of one match mode game vs. Yumemi) Chiyuri DESTROYS bosses, which is a plus to start compensating a lot of minuses, but since I was sweeping the screen back and forth with her lvl1 I kept ramming stuff :V
2. "how do I watch moonrune", I'm guessing I have to register?

Yep (http://www.google.com.au/search?q=signing+up+a+nico+account&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a).

My ultimate goal now is to be the first person to do everything. To beat every game on lunatic.
What do you have left to do? Only the fighting games and PoFV
? Maybe when you've finished that you can start with some strange challenges. :P
Hmm... my goal was to beat all the Extras without focus, but now I've finished that so I'm not really sure. I guess improving them, or perfecting the rest of the Extras, maybe... though I imagine the rest will take a lot longer than EoSD/PCB because lol Mokou's 8th non-card, BoLaD, Red Frog, Suwa War, Genetics, etc. It's sort of weird, actually; lately I've found myself more interested in these odd things than actually getting around to the other Lunatics like SA or UFO. :V
Sort-of-related, PCB Extra (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoUwZYq95OU) no focus no deaths (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bCDTUerAus) is up on YouTube.

Fun fact: PoDD Lunatic with Reimu or Yumemi = PoDD Hard with any other character.
At least it's not as bad as using medicine in PoFV right?
Right? :-[
-
No, it isn't as bad, as I've seen Medicine take out Shiki in less than a minute far too many times. Still, it does drastically reduce the difficulty to something manageable by
a lot more people.
-

Yes, just the fighting games. I'm satisfied with my PoFV lunatic 1cc even if it was with Aya, because I hate that game.
And geez Baity why don't you just beat IN lunatic with Sakuya solo and THEN be satisfied. :V

Red Frog
this is the easiest survival card ever, you should be ashamed
EDIT: http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm1500048
IIRC that's the 1cc done with Chiyuri. That's PoDD Lunatic with no High-Tier landslide victories.
Err... now that I've watched the video, I don't understand what you meant by it. When he won against Chiyuri it was in a three-minute fight, and the two losses could've been won if he lasted about three minutes as well. The victory against Yumemi took three minutes and a half, and while she did pull a Shikieiki on him in the first round, I've been there as well, even with Reimu - sure, that last run I uploaded was hilariously hax with the orbs (it's even in the tags) and doesn't offer much in the way of counter-arguments, but I was here thinking the guy would take eight minutes to beat her with one life spare, crazy drunken japanese style. Between three minutes and three minutes and a half is the average for Reimu as well (the first run I uploaded ends with a 3:50 victory over Yumemi).
Of course, that doesn't mean I don't find Reimu much superior to everyone else - her ofudas are superior to pretty much every other lvl1, both for offense and defense, and yes, her ying-yangs do yield you some easy victories... but that video isn't exactly proof of how easier it is to win with her (in part because it's hard to see what's going on, which always makes judging snowball dodging difficulty harder). If anything my now near-100% odds to 1cc it with Reimu and 0% so far with anyone else is a better measurement (as is my replay against Harakiri Yumemi, of course).
I'm satisfied with my PoFV lunatic 1cc even if it was with Aya, because I hate that game.
Odd reasoning for the local e-peen enlargement clinic's #1 customer.

The only survival I find harder than Red Frog is Suwa War. :V All the others I can capture consistently without too much trouble. Is it really that easy?
-

Start at midscreen height. Always have the Suwako(s) charge at you horizontally, from center screen to outside the screen and back. Stream slowly and vertically. When nearing the top/bottom, wait until the Suwako(s) charge to the outside and quickly move to the other side. Suwako(s) will now charge once to go back to the center, twice to move to the opposite outer-screen, and you'll stream vertically again. Repeat.
When the second Suwako joins in, you'll want to change sides after she first charges, so both are going in the same direction. One of the two will end up moving a bit diagonally; must make slightly larger movements when avoiding them.

Take note of the play-style of the person. You can see that he was aiming to continually pressure the opponent, hence the opponent ended up yielding rather quickly.
Also, a quick search around the internet yields 0 1cc's done with Kana at the moment. And no, there are no hidden ones lying around either.

Congratulations! I say do Flansocks next. I actually beat her first, while Ran was giving me trouble, then came back and trashed Ran in two tries. So, I'd say she's harder, but a good next one. (Mokou and Suwako are easier, but come on, it's Flandre!)
-
(Mokou and Suwako are easier, but come on, it's Flandre!)
You sure about Suwako?
I can reach Mokou and Flandre's 2nd or 3rd cards before getting a game over, and Ran I can at least see Fox Thoughts before I finally lose, but Suwako I can barely get past her first nonspell... (Koishi and Nue I've yet to unlock, and obviously the fact I can only reach stage 3 with Komachi doesn't really mean anything as far as the normal games go.)
-
Mokou is easier? Eh... I dunno... I can't get past her second spellcard >.< The stage is annoying, Keine is just ARGH, and both her first and second cards seem incredibly mean...
-
Keine's first card is a pushover with a solo character. The pattern for her second card is kinda static but rotates clockwise. (Basically, be midscreen, find an opening, and slowly move to the left. If you go too far, you may have to go back or move up slightly.)
Anyhoo, I'm improving my MarisaB 1cc in UFO...
-
EX Keine is a complete and utter joke. What's funny is that EX Kanako is an even bigger joke.
-
Erm... I was referring to Mokou's first and second. I don't have trouble with Keine's second (first and third on the other hand...)
-
Mokou's first card is my worst on her. Her second one is simply misdirecting the phoenixes and light dodging on the red bullets. Mokou's cards are actually pretty easy overall; Ikahasa's Moon Curse and Hollow Giant Woo are probably her toughest for me, and only because I routinely screw up the second and just don't know how to do the first.
Ran is a mix of easy and hard, but you also get a lot of resources to work with (a metric ton of lives and bombs, and borders on top of it). She also has a couple of joke cards (lolWizardFoxThoughtseasiestExtracardeverlol).
Suwako, though, is entirely trick-based (except Froggy Braves the Elements). Her first card is misdirection, her second is just going up and down with very slight left or right as necessary, etc. I'm crap at Jade of the Horrid River and Seven Stones and Seven Trees, but that doesn't make them - or her - difficult. (Suwa War might, fine, but a bomb or two sorts that out all right.)
-
I just discovered something interesting in PoDD accidentally. If you press X instead of Z when selecting a character for story mode you can play as your character's alt color. :O
-
No focus, no vertical PoFV lunatic 1cc with Medicine (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5558) just to show how broken she is.
I celebrated the replay saving at least as much as I celebrated surviving the brutal final round against Shikieiki.
-
I manage to pass Remilia without dying on IaMP lunatic for the first time ever and suddenly I can reach Suika. :V
-
Getting the hang of No Vert. The only problems now are the Survival SCs... I should still be able to clear it. Hopefully.
EDIT: Getting closer (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5559)... How AM managed to get "Suwa War" No Vert is beyond me.
-
No focus, no vertical PoFV lunatic 1cc with Aya. (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5560) Not that much of an accomplishment, really.

I finally took down Lunatic Kogasa. Dear lord that is an absurdly hard stage 2 boss. The only one of her cards I have captured is Hello World, and even that randomly screws me over due to bad positioning causing bullets to overlap and thus perfectly spaced walls D:
Took a good long look at Lunatic Stage 3. And although my Mid-BROFIST MACHINE GUN capture rate is 33%, I have to bomb about 4-6 times during the stage itself just to reach Ichirin right now... it's a wall I know I can't beat any time soon, so I'm content to leave it there for now and go back to Wuss Hard.
Also I think Midboss Brofists is EASIER on Lunatic than Hard, because the total width is far less if managed correctly.
-
MoF Extra No Vert complete! On my last life, at 3.20 Power. I almost made it through the 20 seconds of hell without dying!!!!

Note: Look at the healthbar, not the damage number~ Yes, it is one continuous combo.

I've just captured ...
- Charming Siege from All Sides.
- Princess Tenko -Illusion-
- Ultimate Buddhist.
- Unilateral Contact.
And ALMOST timed out Kokkuri-san's Contract when I got hit by TWO bullets coming at each other (it's the LAST SECOND DAMMIT) DX

just cleared a no focus run of marisaA on EoSD Extra. it's not a pretty and only 4 spellcards are captured. but no patches used. - replay (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5565)
-
During one single practice run of PCB S6, I magically work out (and capture):
- First 7 waves of "Ageless Obsession -Lunatic- (it probably repeats so whatever; repeats starting at the 5th wave)
- "Law of Mortality -Demon World-"
- "Perfect Cherry Blossom of Sumizome -Bloom-"
And I was just messing around too. Go figure.
-
StB 10-4 cleared. Sweet Jesus that is one hell of a long card sequence. @_@
10-5 cleared. Irritating, but not that hard. Maybe I'll get around to actually finishing this damn game.
10-6, too. Hopefully I can finish the rest of Stage 10 without too much trouble... I can see EX being hard, though.
10-7 clear... 10-8 is giving me a fair bit of trouble, though.
-
Touhou Mother lunatic clear. :V
-
10-8, EX-1 and EX-2 cleared, despite that I had to do 10-8 twice because my score wasn't high enough the first time. <_< Six to go.
Touhou Mother lunatic clear. :V
Eh? :V
EX-3 cleared, and trying EX-4. Sweet Jesus, Satori's BoWaP has nothing on the real thing. @_@

.Eh? :V
Played the Mother/ Earthbound games? (If you haven't go play them right now because your missing out).
Well this is another crossover sort of deally like Megamari and Super Marisa World.
It's entirely made in a Japanese RPG maker, but someone translated the entire thing.
Pretty fun game, although some of the fanon references can go die in a fire.

(This is an outdated version and translation BTW, and battles are not included).
Apparently lunatic is supposed to be like completely impossible. :V

Ah, okay, was wondering if it might be something to do with that series. Heard a lot about them but never played, need to get around to that sometime. :V
Finally managed EX-4 (BoWaP). A question... is it even possible to dodge the part of the card where it loops back to the walls from the beginning? The only way I found to clear it was to get all six pictures in before it reached that part.
Four to go.

And so the pandemonium (har har) of StB finally comes to an end (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5575). StB all scenes cleared!
I think EX-4, BoWaP, was the hardest card... although, I can't really remember much of anything before 10-4, so yeah. :V

Second capture of Scarlet meister lunatic. :)
It's the second because I forgot to take a screenshot the first time. :V
The only trick I found to this card is to misdirect the aimed stream of bubbles to the sides of the screen while going left and right near the bottom of the screen.
Also ReimuA seems to make this much easier duo to constant damage because of homing and the card not having a whole lot of health.
Not sure whether it' s easier on low rank or on max rank though.
-
Scarlet Meister isn't affected by rank.

Got to Yuyuko on Hard up to "Deep Rooted Butterfly" on my first try in weeks!
Haven't touched PCB for a very very long time

So I just got my 200th capture of Nine Syllable Stabs. And other SA Extra clear, I guess.

EoSD Extra cleared 0/2. Had to slow down the game to 15 FPS to survive that Spell Card that comes after Q.E.D. though.
Video coming. That is, if this replay doesn't corrupt (which it shouldn't doesn't)

I finished it sometime after it was posted on Poosh. I really don't find any satisfaction in beating these anymore, though. I'm not sure how much slowdown you use, but iIt took me five(?) tries over a span of like an entire day. Having constant slowdown like that just to get killed by some spontaneous crap and having to restart after an hour is just not my idea of a fun time :/

I didn't slow down most of the stage portion at all, including Patchy's first SC. Flan was dropped to 30 FPS for about 90% of the time. I kept the survival at full speed just for laughs. "GRT" Dream / Fantasy "Gengetu"was dropped to 15 FPS after realizing that 30 FPS was still too fast.
It still kept its fun value there. Dare I say it, everything was pretty methodical and there was no spontaneous crap killing me surprisingly.
Total time playing through: ~30 minutes (I paused a lot to take breaks in between). If you exclude the pause(s), I would reckon about 23-25 minutes.
That being said, I had quite a hard time seeing bullets at 15 FPS and not at 30 FPS.

Reimu has a better than average chance of hitting the lunatic AI because of her ying-yangs, and her charge speed is the best of the bunch. I think it's fair game though since in exchange you get a horrible movement speed which WILL hinder you severely against Shikieiki. Reimu can get the occasional cheap shot in but it's also easy to get walled by Shiki with her.
Which brings me to the important part: Shikieiki will fuck you up. Don't be surprised if your first few times arriving at her with three or four spare lives end up game overing, and don't be fooled by the "bleep bleep last hit" alert - you'll still have to last a reasonably long time after she's almost dead. As in, if you had already been hit once, or if you get hit once just after she's down to her last half orb, don't get your hopes up.
PoFV lunatic 1cc with Reisen. Dear lord Reisen is horrible, when the screen is filled with stuff her lvl1 blows up in your face and you can't see anything.

It's because VoWG Lunatic is all I've been playing for the past week. That and some assorted HRtP Normal because I felt that I needed to be more masochistic and play something I suck at.

All I did was beat UFO extra with Reimu B. :< Pretty intense end, because I entered Yorimasu Genzanmi with no lives due to dying twice in completely "lolwhut?" deaths on Nightmare of Heiankyou. So I beat that card with 1.00 power, with Reimu B, with only two bombs. lol Nue.

Tried it before. My timing was thrown off when I was scorerunning with music turned off. Other than that, there's no noticeable difference apart from me being completely attentive (the music makes me feel all light inside while playing... usually).

51 tries and I FINALLY captured Maze of Love, captured catadioptric aswell in that run so had potential to perhaps actually clearing EoSD extra stage (*cough* deaths after flandre's dead) but messed up on cranberry trap (eventough that seems to be regular) and 4 of a kind (again...). If only I had done it on the previous try I would have reached And then will there be none with 4 lives :'(

Checks out.
(wonder if you bomb / death spammed Kikuri like just about everybody else)
I learnt something new (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5597). Hooray!
I also have a No Focus (attempted) timeout of "Tele-Mesmerism", but it got caught at 13/14 seconds left on the timer.
-
(wonder if you bomb / death spammed Kikuri like just about everybody else)
I got lucky against Kikuri, very lucky. Entered 2/2, thought the attempt was doomed. Then, one death and no bombs in the first phase because the ying-yang hit like it never hit before. I just spammed amulets and tried to not get in the way while occasionally bumping it in whatever direction I could when it started to bounce too low. Entered stage 16 0/2, I think.
Also, entered the last stage 4/2 but did everything wrong at the beginning and was down to 0/3 before getting rid of half her healthbar - blasted ying-yang must've passed above Konngara a million times.
A shame I wasn't recording, but I really thought the previous run was a major fluke. You'd see the most pathetic Jigoku stage 18 ever: tried to get the ying-yang to the left side, got annoyed after a while and bombed. Still some stuff on the screen, tried some more, got hit in the head by ying-yang. Not wanting to spend another bomb I kept trying to get the damned thing over there, got hit again. Bombed again because, really.... and a couple of &#?$& thingies still stood there, I didn't even know you could bomb twice and fail to clear the screen. Had to endure some more torture before finally getting the ying-yang to the other side and beating the level.
tl;dr, I suck at HRtP despite evidence in contrary.
oh and I died once to Shingyoku

Almost captured Q.E.D. When I got hit by this stray bullet, her gauge was COMPLETELY depleted. >_<

YEAAAAAAAAAAH NOT SO TOUGH NOW ARE YOU FLANDRE?
After way too many (read: WAY too many) tries I finally did it, adrenaline is still flowing through my body. It was such a nice attempt.
Short recap:
Reached her with 4 lives no bombs, died on cranberry trap because I always do.
Pretty much clear everything, Captured maze of love for the 4th time today!
Did okay on starbow break, captured Catadioptric. Then did clock and And then there were none with 1 life each. Then Q.E.D. went so amazing, I bombed somewhere during the 2nd or 3rd wave for safety, avoided everything, some with really cool maneuvres I didnt even know I could do, but I still died, looked at her hp which was about this much left 'l' and then I went :V :V :V :V ;D

Got to Shiki again, this time with two lives in stock, and without even getting the 70m extend.
You're goin' down, Yama.

Hahahaha what
Koishi pacifist...
First attempt!
Didn't see that coming. :V
http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5600
Pretty satisfied with this run, even though I failed horribly on Koishi's heart non-spell.
I noticed some things while doing pacifist:
First of all you get like five heart pieces total, three from Sanae and two from Koishi's survivals.
That is three extra lives total to do this with, which I believe is the lowest amount of lives for any pacifist extra boss.
Embers of Love is completely impossible unless I'm missing something.
Subterranean Rose has no timeout fase? ???
I was expecting the worst when the timer reached 30 seconds, but nothing happened.
I'm not complaining though. :V
YEAAAAAAAAAAAH

9-10 for me. But that might be because of under-confidence in my playing skills.
...brb drawing a relative graph of my playing skills. Expect me to put it up within another 5 hours of this post. Reasoning below.
1 Death No Bomb IN 4A. I want to perfect it, but currently running into time constraints.
-
It took me 13, and it was LLS anyway, and PoFV is probably going to be my second at this rate, and either way I still suck so badly I can't consistently 1cc Hard (except, you know, LLS), so YOU'RE REALLY NOT HELPING CON SARN IT
ohyeah and I can consistently get to Shikieiki with a life or two in stock, because Cirno is the Strongest
-
Months of play don't really have anything to do with it. It really just depends how many hours a day you practice and how hard you push yourself when practicing. bjw once said that he basically skipped straight to grinding Lunatic right away and ended up getting to a high level of play in a few months, iirc.
Oh, and I think I got mine in like 9 months or so. :P
-
I went straight from Normal to Lunatic. With the help of Practice Modo and *cough*Trainer*cough*. Don't get me wrong. It's entirely for spell card practicing purposes.
More lives = more confidence :P so this drastically reduced my panic deaths. Also improved my no focus movements.
-
I went straight from "I've never played a shmup before" to "I think I'll try to complete Extra"
-
I've been playing for 11 months now and can almost 1CC a few Hard modes. I should probably play a bit more, but I usually ragequit for the day if I die anywhere in the first 3 stages. :x
Edit: Woah, I just played EoSD Hard with 1 life at the start of the game and made it to S6 midboss Sakuya. I bomb-spammed my way through a lot of stuff, but to make up for that, I was somehow able to dodge like a lunatic player whenever I was out of bombs. Perhaps I need to have more trust in my dodging skill.
-
Months of play don't really have anything to do with it. It really just depends how many hours a day you practice and how hard you push yourself when practicing.
This. We can throw around relative timeframes all we want, but it's all meaningless without context. It took me about 2 months to clear my first Lunatic, and donut 11 months. That doesn't make me any better than him. You have to take into account differences in our playstyles, where I force myself to higher levels of play by constantly playing difficulties just out of my reach (practicing Lunatic for my Hard 1ccs, for example), and where donut admits to having found too many excuses to not touch Lunatic until as late as possible. I also started Touhou in the beginning of December 08, and got my first Lunatic 1cc toward the end of January 09. Perfect timing for holiday binging during school's winter break (to the extent that I literally had migraine-inducing danmaku dreams from playing too much), which meant massive improvement over a short period of time.
Time means nothing. How that time is spent means everything.
-
Time means nothing. How that time is spent means everything.
True.
I started playing Touhou early April this year.
That I 1cc' d lunatic so soon was mainly thanks to the 8 weeks of free time I had during Juli and August where I was playing way too much Touhou.
All the playing time before was nothing compared to the time spend in those 8 weeks.
-
Is Veronica the first player to timeout VoWG ?
Kefit mentioned it in his VoWG vid. I haven't seen any of her (?) replays though :V
Here you go (http://replays.gensokyou.org/index.php?u=FallenAngelV&g=--&p=&t=--&d=--&ch=0). As a quick aside, Kefit and FAV are (were?) on quite on a different level compared to "us" (yes I'm clumping you all together, myself included). And yes, "her".
Time means nothing. How that time is spent means everything.
Time spent playing overall isn't the only factor affecting (the development of) one's skill. There's also previous experience, external "environmental" factors, and "motive". Previous experience is pretty self-explanatory. By environmental factors, I'm referring to things like stress, mood and even CPU hardware. "Motive" is also pretty self-explanatory... I hope.
That being said, this (http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/tt263/BaitySM/Chart.jpg) is a concise summary of my progress in skill, broken down into monthly intervals. Note that months 14/15 are quite inaccurate (or rather, not known to me).
First green cross represents the point where I started listening to peoples' advice by lurking certain forums for general pointers. Second cross marks the point where I started using SCT (Spell Card Theory) as a means to improve. Red line; Line of Best Fit :V :V :V (Protip: ignore it) Blue line; a more accurate line which shows the ups and downs between. Black crosses were there just as a guideline for me to scribble on. Got lazy with removing them.
The Borders refer to the average difficulties of the games themselves. So the border of a Lunatic 1cc wouldn't be a UFO Lunatic 1cc, but something a bit below it.
To address the fluctuations / oddities / inconsistencies...
My previous experience... was when I was 8-10 or something. I played "normal" arcade shmups. I was decent at them. That's it there. So Easy Mode was pretty... easy for me once I got the hang of the controls and mechanics.
No time constraints have affected me so far... well, not to a great extent, so I guess you could say that my playtime on a weekly (and hence, monthly) basis is pretty consistent. I do recall holidays every now and then, but that didn't stop me from playing my set amount of time for the week. Stress? Not really, despite all the RAGE moments. Those only led to me wanting to improve to make sure it never happens again /trauma.
Now, motive. At first, I only aimed to do Hard 1cc's. My skill started to taper off at that point anyway, and I also thought Lunatic would be too overwhelming for "poor old me"; cue the "past, present and future" barrier, which is what this essentially is. Then I met 'nut and I changed the thought quickly, and then started to use SCT to my advantage (where possible) in hopes of "getting there".
And that's my life story :V
*insert proofreading here*
-
What is "Spell Card Theory"?
-
I play for fun and clear the odd lunatic without doing NOT FUN stuff like grinding stages in practice or putting together Excel charts (I have to deal with enough of these at work, thanks). I'm happy enough. Maybe I could be one of the top western players if I put everything into it. Who knows? Who cares? I'd rather take it easy.
-
Today is 4 months I've started playing and I've finished 2 games on hard only.
But I can't even play for 1 hour a day because of work, wife, studying... So that kind of annoys me cause when I stated playing I was set to beat my first Lunatic by 5 months x_x
Guess it will have to wait a while =P
-
4 months and 2 games 1cc'd on Hard is better than me.
What is "Spell Card Theory"?
Simply put, breaking a Spell Card down to its basic components, finding out how it works and from that, find the most efficient method of surviving it every time. It's "Theory" because it doesn't always work.
I play for fun and clear the odd lunatic without doing NOT FUN stuff like grinding stages in practice or putting together Excel charts (I have to deal with enough of these at work, thanks).
I only slapped the Excel Chart together because it uses a grid. Everybody knows drawing a graph is easier on a grid :V
I also rarely ever grind out a stage, unless it's for (attempting to do) Perfect (http://replays.gensokyou.org/index.php?u=BaitySM&g=--&p=&t=--&d=--&ch=40) runs. My first 1cc's are usually filled with the lack of practice. (see: IN lunatic 1cc).
2 NDNB Stage 4 MoF... stage portion only. See other post (you'll know which one) for more details.
-
I've been playing Touhou for almost 14 months now and I'm just starting to make my way up to Hard Mode :V
I spent about a month on Easy, then moved up to Normal, got my first 1cc about five months after I started (IN Magic Team; happened totally by accident btw, I was half-asleep and didn't realize I'd 1cc'd until the ending started playing :V). Then I started playing almost exclusively Extra Stages for some reason. That helped immensely with improvement. I can almost 1cc Hard at this point, but I'm not really in any rush to do it. I play the games because they're fun (except EoSD Extra, scorerun that shit).
I mean I would like to get to Lunatic eventually but it's not a huge thing for me. The only Lunatic I can come close to beating is PoFV. I'll get it one of these days...
-
Been playing for about 11 months now... I don't think I really bothered with Easy much, I just went straight to Normal. Managed EoSD Lunatic after 8 months of playing. There was a massive gap between me being a Hard mode and Lunatic mode player, though... I kept putting it off since it seemed above my skill level
kind of like what I'm doing with SA and UFO right now
. Pretty confident I could beat them with some practice, though... maybe I'll go and have a look at those games for the next section of DONUT'S EXTREME SPELL CARD CHALLENGE. :V

Alternate Title: "The Do's and Don'ts of PCB S6 Lunatic" (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5616)
*collapses*
-
Two months.
I started with UFO on the day it was released (I've NEVER played any STGs before that). Took all morning to clear Easy (over 20 retries at Stage 6 ._.). Then I got stuck at Stage 6 Normal for two weeks before ragequitting to look for a save file :V
I came across this Extra cleared save. With 9 lives I could make it out of that stage (with no lives left at all)
Then I found the Trainer thingy on DS. I know cheating makes Touhou pointless, but I was desperate. 8~10 Stage 6 Hard and Lunatic runs per day, over 30 deaths each. Tried Lunatic mode of PCB too.
A few weeks later (one and a half month after my Easy Modo clear), I went back to try Normal, and pulled this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xGRTspYBxA) off. A UFO Normal 1cc right after that, then I 1cc'd Normal and cleared the harder modes of the other games as well. That was so much easier thanks to, uhh, practice.
Current statistics :
EoSD: Normal clear [X] ... Hard clear [X] ... Lunatic clear [X] ... Extra clear [ ]
PCB: Normal clear [X] ... Hard clear [X] ... Lunatic clear [X] ... Extra clear [ ] ... Phantasm clear [ ]
IN: Normal clear [X] ... Hard clear [X] ... Lunatic clear [ ] ... Extra clear [ ]
MoF: Normal clear [X] ... Hard clear [X] ... Lunatic clear [ ] ... Extra clear [X]
SA: Normal clear [X] ... Hard clear [ ] ... Lunatic clear [ ] ... Extra clear [X]
UFO: Normal clear [X] ... Hard clear [ ] ... Lunatic clear [ ] ... Extra clear [X]
Couldn't clear Extra for the older games because Maze of Hate and Mokou are BS, and clipdeaths happen way too often in PCB (friggin' delusional hitboxes).
Although ... with that little help (and a little curiosity), I managed to capture Boundary of Humans and Youkai (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZhiYhrnpAc) (8~10 deaths on first try) and BoLaD. Best accomplishments so far :V
EDIT: Oh yeah, one more thing. I have this "fear of failure". Every time I pull off something seemingly impossible, I stay away from the stage or even the game after that. Bad ... isn't it ? :(
-
I've been playing Touhou for almost two years now, and I haven't got a Lunatic clear yet. That doesn't mean I'm not good at the games by any means, I just haven't put any effort into beating them yet. Instead of playing just Touhou games like many of you, I play a whole bunch of different shmups on a daily basis, all of which play differently, have different mechanics and movement physics, scoring systems, and methods of playing altogether. I'm sure if I played Touhou more than once every couple of days, I could 1CC a game on Lunatic difficulty in due time.
-
words
Wait, you can clear <insert game here> on Lunatic (or is it just a clear and no 1cc?) but not IN Extra?
IN Extra is the very first thing I 1cc'd on any game/difficulty. Yes, I did this before 1cc'ing anything on Easy, and I was using Scarlet Team instead of Border Team (because my strategies for Ihakasa's Moon Curse and Fujiyama Volcano at the time absolutely required capturing them very quickly).

You need to 1cc normal to unlock extra :( cheater :-X
-
You need to 1cc normal to unlock extra :( cheater :-X
You only need to 1cc Easy :V (and you can use 7 lives, so I wouldn't count that as a 1cc)
I was using someone's Score.dat though. I didn't even know you had to unlock the Extra stage.
-
It's a clear. And only the older games because they have continues.
IN Extra seemed almost impossible for me. I fail at finding safe spots (and this stage happens to have a lot of them). Flying Phoenix, Fujiyama Volcano and Possessed by Phoenix's 2nd wave were completely impossible until I watched SP's Pacifist run and slapped myself in the face after that.
P.S.: You have to 1cc Normal to unlock Extra :V
-
Which safe spots? The only ones I can think of off-hand are:
1. Ancient History "e". Found this myself after like 2 tries because I didn't move at all and OH WHAT I DIDN'T DIE?!
2. Death fairy bottom left, border team only.
3. Xu Fu's dimension trick, which is easy without it anyway.
-
Hmmm... not exactly safe spots, but strategies to completely trivialize them.
- Ihakasa Moon Curse : Circle around Mokou (funny thing is ... I successfully captured this the normal way).
- Flying Phoenix : At first I tried to move -through- the pillar of shards/bullets the first phoenix creates, then dodge the rest. It doesn't always work (especially when the entire thing collapses). Turned out this can be misdirected.
- Flaw of Forgiving Shrine : The gap between the two waves of purple amulets coming at each other is safe.
- Xu Fu's Dimension : I DIDN'T KNOW I HAD TO TAP UP ONCE.
- Honest Man's Death : Fairly easy. That laser confused me at first though.
- Hollow Giant -Woo- : So I turned it into a Peerless Wind God and made things harder for myself. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvTqUZT95b0)
- Phoenix's Tail : Small hitboxes, no-vert :V
- Fujiyama's Volcano : Complete BS ...
- Possessed by Phoenix : 2nd wave can be streamed horizontally. *feels like a baka*
- Hourai Doll : YOU MOVE IN A CIRCLE.
-
It's a clear. And only the older games because they have continues.
P.S.: You have to 1cc Normal to unlock Extra :V
...huh? All of the games have continues. What are you talking about?
Also, you can unlock the Extra stages in PCB and IN by simply clearing the game on any difficulty (including Easy) as long as you don't use continues. You can even cheat your way through it by starting with more lives than you should >_>
-
4 months and 13 days for me, all Hard 1cc'd except for PC98 and UFO(because I play way too much PoFV lately)
I could probably 1cc EoSD Lunatic if I would stop dying with bombs all the time.....but it's not really worth trying with no room for error. I'm not that good :V
-
...huh? All of the games have continues. What are you talking about?
Also, you can unlock the Extra stages in PCB and IN by simply clearing the game on any difficulty (including Easy) as long as you don't use continues. You can even cheat your way through it by starting with more lives than you should >_>
UFO and SA have useless continues, where you restart the current stage with 2 lives remaining. Generally if I'm continuing, it's because I died like 15 times on that stage after stocking up lives on the previous stages, so starting it again with 2 lives isn't very helpful.
MoF, on the other hand, you can push X a lot and get more lives from all the faith/point items you collect.
Also, how is Ihakasa Moon Curse : Circle around Mokou (funny thing is ... I successfully captured this the normal way).
easier? Dodging near point blank knives with stupid hitboxes at the top of the screen isn't really my idea of a good time. It took me a lot of attempts to time this out because I kept dying around the top.
-
...huh? All of the games have continues. What are you talking about?
No ... you continue from where you lost all your lives (for example, in the middle of a fight). If you lose all your continues, you get kicked to the main menu.
From MoF onwards, losing all your lives doesn't throw you back to the main menu, but you restart from the beginning of the stage with default lives (which is harder IMO). At least you can save replays this way.
-
It's still continuing either way. You're just throwing pointless semantics into it :P
-
Just found this (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5617) in my replays folder. Was it a TAS clear ? The way he
moved grazed was ... perfect.
-
Just captured green UFOs on my first time seeing it o.O Just saying.. without those 2 deaths in the stage itself and me not fucking up on danmaku chimeara I could already clear it :V
-
Look, I've only been playing about a month less than bjw and Baity, but I've spent basically at least a couple hours on these games almost every freakin' day for months straight. Demoralizing.
*Goes to go play more Lunatic modo*

Check the timer.
Closest call ever? :V

Seems I now find Fantasy Heaven pretty manageable rather than a crazy mess like I did when I was going for my original capture, so I thought I'd have some fun with it. Fantasy Heaven No Focus capture with Magic team (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5619). :V
Finally, that took ages... most IN spellcards become way more difficult when you have no homing and practically no spread. Anywho, 222/222 IN spellcards captured with both Border and Magic team. Time for a break from DONUT'S EXTREME SPELLCARD CHALLENGE.
-
Finally, that took ages... most IN spellcards become way more difficult when you have no homing and practically no spread.

It took four hours of continuing to get my first UFO Hard Clear
I... am gonna need about a 15-hour nap to recover from that
-
Youmu says "wrong"
Tell that to Life Spring Infinity, Tree-Ocean of Hourai, Total Purification... actually, quite a lot of stuff. Also, Youmu can aim to the side; Magic team can't do that, plus if you want to actually do damage you need to keep focusing and unfocusing so your movement is pretty messed up, too. :V
-
Storytime again? Well, I played my first Touhou game at the very end of November 2007. Within a week of getting EoSD I 1cc'd it on normal and after 14 days of straight playing beat PCB extra in my first month. Then due to a number of factors such as my former computer's lag making the games really difficult to a lack of self-confidence to perhaps feeling like I was doing nothing because I was playing on max lives, it took me until March to beat my first hard and despite beating stuff like LLS lunatic on max lives, I pretty much got no better for a period of five months. Then October of that year, my computer mysteriously started to perform better, and I started playing with default lives. The first of November I 1cc'd LLS lunatic on default lives and soon after that I had a massive spike in skill, 1ccing MS, EoSD, PCB, and IN in a one month period. I've been gradually working at my skills ever since, and judge for yourself how far I've come in nearly two years. :V
-
captured Vajra of Perfect Buddhism with ONE FUCKING POWER
I'M THAT GOOD
now if i could actually 1cc it
-
Alright, after fighting Satori what feels like forever. It's time for the final spellcard showdown!
Just one more before I've captured every single one in the series from easy to phantasm. :D
And the last one is:
Vajra of Perfect Buddhism lunatic...
OH BOY
-

OH BOY
That card was ABSOLUTE HELL to capture and the main reason I lost to Donut in the capture race. ;_;
-
Reached Byakuren on UFO Hard.
I could probably beat her if I wouldn't panic bomb on Shou so much and if I could capture ANYTHING Ichirin has.
Captured only her midboss card.
Bombed or died on the rest.....some I even autobomb.
First one is bullshit, second one is an autobomb, third one too. Not to mention that her first nonspell always kills me and I can't figure out Nazrin Pendulum.
oh, and despite my rather nice history on Dipper Creeping Close, here I get walled and bomb it and then clip it.
-
Timeout of Legendary Flying Saucer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYr2FW22yHI&fmt=22) Lunatic without deaths or bombs, forcing the card to its last phase as quickly as possible. This took 371 attempts :V
On the topic of Touhou playing time, I started out around when IN came out, 5 years ago or so. Playing intensity since then has varied from on-and-off, to many hours daily, to not touching it for months.
-
Another amazing timeout by Phar. =V
LFO looks like something I would screw up at a lot. I suck at fast tight dodges, which is why I usually avoid them on VoWG. Although it looks fun.
-
Well that was a lot better.
Game overed on Yuyuko's third noncard (which, by the way, I have no idea how to do, Baity, yes, I'm looking at you, you know, the one with the teal knives). Impressive points were an absolutely obscene bit of dodging on Stygian Funeral (which is loleasy anyway), and first-time captures of Youmu's midboss and first boss spell cards. There were a lot of "D'oh!" moments, like dying with two bombs to Yuyuko's opener, or with three to Youmu's, or dying on Tractor Beam (Asura Sword, fine), but on the whole, after several dozen Chen restarts, this is pretty heartening.
-
Finally cleared Flandre today! Took me almost 3 weeks of constant practice and only captured 3 spell cards (Silent Selene, Cranberry Trap and L?vatein; I can also usually capture Four of a Kind and Kagome Kagome...) but for a first extra I like to think it's not too bad
-
1DNB EoSD stage 4 Lunatic ReimuB. Death to the books (of course), second time perfecting Patchy, but this time with max rank all the way through. :D Now if only I could play this good in a real run...
inb4someonesaysdoitwithMarisaA
-
So I've just done another Mokou run.
10 deaths and 19 bombs. The spell cards hates me. Old History, Flying Phoenix, Fujiyama Volcano and Possessed by Phoenix. Even Honest Man's Death forced me to bomb. Does the laser materialize quicker if you move too much ?
Anyway ... 10 deaths is the lowest of all my Extras.
AND I FRIGGIN' CAPTURED HOURAI DOLL.
HISTORY : 1/6. GHOST TEAM.
-
(http://img34.imageshack.us/img34/4579/spellbreak.png)
Huh. Didn't expect to do this so soon.
-
I've been playing sporadically since around Christmas last year, and there isn't a huge amount I can't do in the Windows Lunatics (though UFO is by far my weakest game, mainly due to lack of experience/time). But I was raised on a diet of Thunder Force, R-Type, Darius (hell yes) and Gradius to a lesser extent, so I did have some history with hori shooters before picking Touhou up.
Work's keeping me too busy to play at the moment, sadly.
-
And now I have a random urge to test my no focus skills, so I'm going to try VoWG Hard unfocused. So, er, pre-emptive rage for that too, I guess. :V
Or, err, maybe not. VoWG Hard No Focus capture (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5630) on my first attempt. I couldn't use my usual method of micrododging everything, though. :V ...I think I'll try Lunatic.
-
So I just realized that now I have no choice but to learn SWR. :( This is supposedly easier than IaMP, but the problem is that the AI actually doesn't fall for the same trick over and over again, and it's obvious I have some things I learned from IaMP that just won't work. Plus the obvious issue of finding the right character for me among 15 choices and finding a good deck. All I can tell: Yukari is NOT the one for me this time; I failed a SWR normal 1cc with her last night before beating IaMP. Any suggestions?
-

I quite like using Remilia, although I haven't tried Hard/Lunatic yet and IIRC Yukari was a harder final boss than Tenshi <_<
.
-
and IIRC Yukari was a harder final boss than Tenshi <_<
.
Very much this.
Also @donut: Suika's scenario is three stages long ;)
-
Guess I'm gonna grab IaMP soon. It's the only Windows Touhou I haven't touched at all.
Oh yeah, quick question ... is it possible to master both the shooters and IaMPSWRUNL ? I find it hard to input combos after days of grazing (and vice versa (i.e. keep up with both at once)) :(
-
Or, err, maybe not. VoWG Hard No Focus capture (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5630) on my first attempt. I couldn't use my usual method of micrododging everything, though. :V ...I think I'll try Lunatic.
This will take quite a while longer. I can consistently do it two deaths but haven't done any better than that yet... the hard part arrives pretty fast and it's somewhat ridiculous unfocused since all micrododging routes are basically out of the window. =x

I recall manhandling it on Normal with both Marisa and Patchy, but I dunno about higher difficulties. Suika is the cheater's route, though.
-
What the ... Got to Sakuya with zero lives. And it's on Easy.
Btw ...
(http://i514.photobucket.com/albums/t349/Mr_Made_In_Heaven/hiscore_1.png)
I was REALLY surprised to see Byaku jumping straight from LOLSHINKI to Flying Fantastica :P
-
Managed VoWG Lunatic No Focus 1 death, no bombs (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5631). I think I can do this.
-
O______________o. Oh noes ... here comes another Kefit.
*ahem*
IN S6A Hard with 4 deaths. Survived Hourai Elixir's first and second wave.
HOWEVER I DON'T GET THIS GAME'S HITBOXES.
-
After hardly having touched PCB in forever, I finally sat down and 1cc'd Normal again.
Attempt one was an "ARGH KILLED BY RESSURECTION BUTTERFLY" run, which sucked, because I didn't die until the Prismrivers.
Attempt two wasn't as great, but I still did pretty decently, and figured out a few things I had no damn clue how to do before - including the opener on the Sakuya Prismriver fight.
Maybe now I'll try to take down Ran.
Edit: Ran down on attempt 1! YEAHHHH
-
Not quite what I was after, but I managed to capture Yamato Torus without focus, so that's something. :V Also, more 1DNB VoWGs.
O______________o. Oh noes ... here comes another Kefit.
I wish. :P I don't think I'm quite that good yet.
-
PCB Extra clear (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5634). Surprisingly didn't take that long given I only really had maybe ~1-2 hours of attempt on Extra in the past before grinding it today for another 1-2 hours. Silly mistakes from Tenko onwards, but I still clear 2/2.
-
FINALLY! I FINALLY DID IT! DIE ICHIRIN, DIE MURASA, DIE NAZRIN, DIE SHOU!!!! ...Go into a nice peaceful sleep Byakuren, you'll be far away from that nasty seal when you wake up <3
<_< >_> Anyway... Finally 1cc'd UFO Normal.
http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5636
-
Yeah, Suika is just the easy way out. At the same time though, I really don't think I want to do Remilia or Tenshi's scenarios due to their length (though I do recall Tenshi being rather fun to use). 'sides, it won't really feel like I beat SWR lunatic unless I beat Tenshi.
And damn it Sapz. :(
-
And then I go ahead and capture it like it was nothing.
Vajra of Perfect Buddhism. 1/28
From what I've seen the card can probably be micro-memorized but I'm not sure.
Also this means I've captured every single spellcard in the series! :D

Either Marisa or Yuyuko. Marisa can use her piercing lasers, and I think Yuyuko has piercing, homing wisps. They render any kind of shield useless, which is especially awesome against Iku

despite 2 clipdeaths to Alice's first noncard =/
-
Messed around with VoWG No Focus since that's the current trend.
It's... not that bad. You can macrododge about 90% of the waves, and squeezing between the waves isn't that much different from squeezing between them focused.
That being said 1DNB (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5638) VoWG No Focus. That would've been a capture if I didn't trap myself like that. Timing it out is a different story.
-
So... after a fair bit of practice, I've started to get the hang of the micrododging without focus, and...
VoWG Lunatic No Focus captured (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5640)!
The rest of the run was terrible to the point that I almost didn't even make it to VoWG (although the 2 power no focus Yamato Torus cap was nice), but I'm really, really proud of this. This is probably the hardest (and definitely my favourite) no focus challenge I've done. :V Gonna stick it on YouTube soonish.
In before 'now time it out'
It's... not that bad.
You're not supposed to mention that. ;_;
-
Now do it with Marisa.
-
In before 'now time it out'
Now why would anyone make you do that?
Do Meister
[/size]
-
Now do it with Marisa.
That would probably be extremely easy :P ...Unless you did it with A or C. Or a level of power besides 3. But especially tough with A or C.
-
Now do it with Marisa.
Do Meister
ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME? ;_;
That would probably be extremely easy :P ...Unless you did it with A or C. Or a level of power besides 3. But especially tough with A or C.
1. I have vsync disable the MarisaB bug.
2. She has a fatbox.
3. She's faster (read: less accurate).
If I'd tried it with Marisa I'm pretty sure I would have failed. :V
-
Isn't that the whole point of Patchouli?
The spirit mechanics in SWR/UNL make real projectile spamming impossible, especially considering Patch's are geared for damage over priority.
Yuyuko's probably the best bet, since she fills the screen in seconds and has a bit of everything, though Tenshi's drills and Yukari's C Lasers of DeathTM take second.
E: Reimu, Marisa, and Sakuya can win with near-solid 236 spam.
-
"Asteroid Belt" timeout NF (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5642). That really, really, hurts my fingers.
-
Patchouli? But she fights Suika as her final boss. :| I want to defeat Tenshi.
-
Had to join in on the silliness. :V
No focus VoWG capture. Fifth or so attempt.
http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5643
Damnit Sapz you beat me to it. :<
-
Patchouli? But she fights Suika as her final boss. :| I want to defeat Tenshi.
More like you don't want to fight Suika; her final spell is like Pandemonium with a nuke attached. Definitely forget the Patchy idea >.>

Got to lunatic Sariel's second form, after reaching her three times in a row.... which not only means that I kinda figured out how to fight her, but also that I stopped failing against YuugenMagan (and Elis who's a pushover when you know what's coming)
edit: HRtP is easy when you think about it. just another resource management game, only much more fun than the average touhou.
-
Got to Phantasm, Foam, Shadow sixth wave. THIS THING IS SO DAMN HARD TO MEMORIZE.
Btw Sapz, is VoWG just about memorization ? The scattered waves (those with tiny gaps) seemed pretty random to me :( . Should I try to move through them or just position myself between the gaps ?
-

VoWG is partially static, partially random, all awesome. Sapz, who is a crazy bastard, likes to dodge through lines of talismans. I prefer to weave around them (my capture video has me go through one line; Sapz I think goes through 8 or 9).
If you're insane enough to try it no-focus, don't try to go through them unless you are supremely confident.

I've been saying this for ages, but despite me even making videos of both routes showing this, nobody seems to believe me. :(
Anyways, SWR normal 1cc. I failed the first time I tried this last night. Since then I've learned two things that made this a one death run:
1. 5c
2. Gap
5c is the perfect attack against spell cards and gapping makes everything Suika has (especially Missing Purple Power)a complete joke. In fact...
I'm purposefully not going to use Yukari at all this time because I won't feel accomplished. If I want to beat this, then hell, I'm going to do it right! Someone who faces Iku's last spell card and Tenshi! YEAH!!!!!
Hmm...I wonder if Youmu is as impossible to use as she was in IaMP? I wouldn't mind trying her out~
-
I'm purposefully not going to use Yukari at all this time because I won't feel accomplished.
What's up hypocrite?
And by request, I'm now off to unlock PCB Lunatic with SakuyaA SakuyaB SakuyA"Broken" (I honestly don't see anything wrong, but that might be because I haven't touched the shot type in about 8 months though)
-

Hooray!
And look, full screen coverage, full decent range homing and four bombs per life is pretty wicked yet I still can't 1cc the game arrrrrgh. And I play the shot type and love Sakuya. Just ask Donut for real ranting.
-
What's up hypocrite?
I'd be a hypocrite if I looked down on others for using the best character/shot type. :P I'm not, I'm just determined to earn my lunatic 1cc the hard way this time.
Anyways, as per Baity's request I recorded myself playing MS extra with Yuka, and it was actually pretty amazing. I do all of Alice until her eighth phase on one bomb (used on her fourth phase for the curious). The problem is that I don't know how to handle the eighth phase at all. :( The part that makes me question whether I should upload this is because I miss out on a one death clear because I die just as Alice is exploding. D=

-
'Grats Ebarrett. :D
As for me, through that magic savestate button (screw you theshim using this to learn patterns has severely improved my play already), I learned EX Alice's eighth phase and on a second run beat the last two phases that marred my otherwise great run before that. Since I recorded both, my plan is to upload the first run in its entirety, then upload the second cut to include the last two phases in it as a bonus.
-
I look forward to seeing how to beat MS Extra with Yuka, because looking back at my file it seems she's the only one I have it unlocked for...
I have weird taste in shot types, don't I?

Imperishable Shooting, solo Youmu, no focus.
Because Kefit's original no focus challenge just wasn't silly enough.
http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5649
This took 76 attempts.
I even had twice that I died on the last red wave, you can't believe how heartbreaking that is.
This is definitely the silliest thing I've done yet. ;D
-
Syou too hard?
:kanakodwi: (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5650)
Really, it's not that bad, especially "VoPB" (or equivalent). Overrated difficulty there. There's not much excuse for the Lunatic-level players to mess it up. Are people that bad at dodging bullets from the top of the screen or something?[/rant]
I'll perfect S5 when I catch up on sleep and get back from my morning lecture. Personally, I find it about as difficult / frustrating as SA S5.
And as a final note here, I'm working on uploading my notes on Spell Cards.

If you're insane enough to try it no-focus, don't try to go through them unless you are supremely confident.
The advantage of crazy bastard-esque tactics is that you don't have to be looking all around the screen for gaps. The micrododging method works better for me because I suck at looking around the screen then I can just concentrate on what's coming straight at me... to the degree that I still ended up using it for the no focus capture. :V
Btw Sapz, is VoWG just about memorization ? The scattered waves (those with tiny gaps) seemed pretty random to me :( . Should I try to move through them or just position myself between the gaps ?
Aside from the first few waves, VoWG is (as far as I'm aware) a static pattern that gets rotated around at a random angle, so you can sort-of-memorize individual waves but not the whole thing since they'll all be appearing in a random order. :V
-
After 100+ attempts, you will have VoWG memorized without even knowing about it. :V
-
5 attempts so far... I noticed I've never done ANY stage/spell cards more than 20 times :V Except for Byaku Lunatic and Superhuman because it's beautiful.
Practice moar ?

Captured the thing on Hard on my second try (and the next two or three runs as well). It's REALLY FRIGGIN' EASY. Lunatic isn't much different aside from randomly placed bullets :V
Now ... on-topic. See Stage 6, Hourai Jewel. (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5652) It's my Hard 1cc I've just pulled off this afternoon. In class. WITHOUT ANY SOUND AT ALL.
-
After reaching Byakuren on UFO Hard yesterday I decided it was time to try 1ccing Normal, cause I had never done o_o
UFO Normal 1cc on first try today.
That was.... easy. Except I lost 392749587345 lives at 5th and 6th stage and because I had only faced Byakuren on Normal 2 or 3 times and it's been months so I had absolutely no idea what i was doing... I finished the game 0/0 on a very VERY close call =P

Flying Fantastica has to be the easiest last spell I've ever faced as well.. Took me two bombs only.

Last ones for the day, "Starlight Typhoon" NFNV (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5653) (Hard) and "Hourai Elixir" NFASPoC (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5655) (Easy). Might consider upping that one to Normal.
Other (incomplete) ones include timing down "Phoenix's Tail" to 15 seconds at the top of the screen, "Asteroid Belt" No Vertical to 10 seconds, and last but not least, a 1DNB "VoWG" timeout. Which is starting to get steadily easier by the way.

NFASPoC sounds funny. =P
And 1DNB VoWG Timeout is amazing! I'll be looking forward =)

Welp, managed to not die on the first two stages of SA and as a result made it up to Stage 5 midboss Orin. Progress~
-
Flying Fantastica has to be the easiest last spell I've ever faced as well.. Took me two bombs only.
What? I'm lucky if I die only twice to this on normal. I once reached it in practice mode on Lunatic with like 6 or 7 lives left and did not complete the stage.
-
Easiest last spell is Hell's Artificial Sun / Subterranean Sun.
Flying Fantastica took me 30 tries AND 15~20 Hard/Lunatic runs before I captured it on Normal.
-
flying fantastica is one of those things which looks easy, seems easy, is easy and yet you lose all your remaining resources on it, just because.
-
My normal Flying Fantastica history is 2/5.
Now, Rainbow Danmaku or Mountain of Faith... Yeah. Pretty easy IMO.
-
Well I have only captured Mountain of Faith and Flying Fantastica as far as last bosses card go on Normal.
Flying Fantastica was also my first last spell to be captured on easy.
Hell's Artificial Sun took me 2 lives and many bombs on Normal, Yuyuko's survival 3 or 4 bombs. Red Magic also takes me more than 2 bombs.
I never captured Rainbow Damnaku. Of course, I haven't tried it yet since I 1cc'd the game months ago.
So yeah... I entered Flying Fantastica for the first time ever 1/0 and finished 0/0. Took me 1 life and two bombs. Captured it on my next try.
On Hard i'd have to say Scarlet Gensokyo is the easiest =P
-
Finally got my PCB Easy MarisaA 1CC. Halfway through!
-
Just tried SA Stage 6 in practice mode... a death to Subterranean Sun
and two deaths to her third non-card because I forgot where the safe bit was
. Easy as hell compared to Orin. I can definitely 1cc this. :V

SA st6 is extremely easy. I've got all of the cards captured in 22 attempts or so, and that's with never getting a cap of her first spell on Normal or Hard.
-
...@_@
SA Lunatic 1cc (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5661). The first time I got past Stage 5, and I finished with two lives to spare.
I'm sort of too shocked to actually remember how the run went right now, except for a lot of 0 power timeouts around Orin.
/me goes to make a cup of tea
...Eight down. One to go.
-
Finally got my PCB Easy MarisaA 1CC. Halfway through!
And now, I can add MarisaB as well. Took me only two attempts, one of which I quit halfway through stage 2 due to hilarious failure against Chen. Certainly could have had a cleaner run (went into stage 6 with seven extra lives, left with one), but hey, I think I'm improving. That was my first deathless stage 4 run!
-
Managed to 1cc Lotus Land Story and Mystic Square on normal with Reimu. Both times I wasn't even being serious.
Though maybe it's because I'm actually somehow getting better but the normal modes in those two didn't feel that hard... although I barely made it through Mystic Square with 0 lives and 1 bomb left.

Well, that's because LLS normal is comparable to most easy modes. :P
Me? I just 1cc'd SWR normal with Youmu. I discovered that Youmu has her own spell card crusher: Her 22C. Leveled up enough, it can defeat most spell cards in 4 or 5 hits. This fact is balanced out by the fact that she fights Yukari. T_T She took two lives from me because I have no idea how to deal with Doppler Effect or Nest of Fireflies, leaving me with none going into Iku (Komachi managed to squeeze one from me as well). It's a good thing Iku isn't that tough (YET), but I was still expecting the worst with her infamous last spell card...then it turns out that Myooooooooon (what I'm calling 22C from now on) works wonders as long as those electrical bullets don't get in the way.
Then I entered Tenshi with no lives OR cards. D: As for how I didn't die once...I have no idea. The fact that Myoooooooon raped Scarlet Weather Rapture helped a bit though.
I dunno, I still don't feel accomplished...but that may be because SWR's endings all tell a (sort of) coherent story, so none of them give you a feeling of accomplishment most other endings would give you.
-
Around 1:40 starts a 2D1B lunatic Kikuri (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eM0qKrNlKBk) which really, really should have been a 1DNB (a misclick causing an unwanted bomb when I was in position to end her first phase, and later walking straight under one of three bullets that were onscreen). But I'm not complaining.
-
1cc'd tHRtP Easy Makai Route. Now, I only need to do it with SoEW (UGH) to 1cc all games in at least EZ-Modo.
-
SoEW is all about bomb management. Seriously.

This replay (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5670) exists for two reasons: Yamato Torus and VoWG.
It is the silliest capture of Yamato Torus the world has likely ever seen.
And I finally managed to time out VoWG (that took two days of trying, you know that? TWO DAYS), including absurd wallruns galore (approximately two were intentional).
Admittedly is is a no-bomb timeout...
-
Lol that was quick!

Thanks! It wasn't that quick, though, I spent quite a lot of time on and off with Stage Practice. Good luck with the 1cc.

NEW TARGET ACQUIRED
Whenever I get around to actually unlocking all the stages with MarisaB.
:V
-
I tried no-focusing EoSD lunatic (using ReimuB just so it didn't look like I was completely ripping off Kefit) because apparently no-focus is all the rage nowadays. Game-over'd on Scarlet Mester. I really should have been able to 1cc, but I had two ultra-retarded deaths out of nowhere on Remi's fourth noncard and Meister. :-\
I did capture Emerald Megalith and Eternal Meek though, so I'll probably upload it later just for those (even though they both went pretty easy on me).

UFO stage 6 hard no deaths with 1 bomb spare.
So why can't I 1cc this?
......eh, I don't get this.
LFO hard.
I have a 5/17 on it, but when I mess it up, it's always on the purple waves.
When the red ones appear, it somehow gets easier.
Weird.

Oh... Well why not call it Flying Fantastica, then?
That's what it's called on Hard and Lunatic, the mode most here seem to play, and you could call it that on Normal and Easy like how everyone calls Kanako's final spell VoWG even when talking about Normal and Easy (where it would be Mountain of Faith instead).

Imperishable Night
after a close 1cc Hard I've had a month ago(and went for Eirin because Kaguya was too hard), I've went for a fun run with 7 lives.
1 death on st4, 1 death on st5.
1 stupid death on st6 beginning and 2 on Kaguya.
wait
5 deaths
WHY CAN'T UFO BE THIS NICE
WHY DOES ICHIRIN RAPE ME EVERY SINGLE ATTEMPT
WHY DO I CLIP ST4 LIKE NEVER BEFORE
WHY CAN'T I PERFECT ST 1 OR 2
GODDAMNIT ZUN

1cc'd MS Easy on first try after... months of not trying again since I failed. Jesus, Stage 4 was complete rape (lost about 4 lives on Yuki & Mai). Dunno how I survived Shinki's last two phases with nothing but a bomb. :P

Aaaand I haven't done VoWG with less than 3 deaths yet. <_<

I was going to try a change of pace and 1cc EoSD Hard. I screwed up big time on Patchy and somehow went down to 3 lives.
Got to Sakuya and died twice on her opener, but I captured Killing Doll (F YEAH).
Then I got to Remi. Died on her opener, and used all 3 continues to get to Scarlet Gensokyo. What's the result?
(http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/9789/scarletgensokyo.th.jpg) (http://img692.imageshack.us/i/scarletgensokyo.jpg/)
Well this kind of brightens my day :V
-
I captured Greatest Treasure twice in two consecutive runs. :O
BTW, is there some trick I'm missing to the post-Nazrin big fairy spam and the last part before Syou? The first part feels like it should be easier than it is and even though I've found three ways to do the last part, every one of them relies on luck.
-
Just found a safespot in Mai's last Attack Phase. ...ugh. It makes the entire attack trivial. However, to make things more impressive, I'll only be using "half" the safespot. That makes 3 of her 4 attacks completely trivial (assuming that I use the spot). The lasers (which are much more worse than Kogasa's, due to the added kunai) are the only thing stopping me from a
100% 95% success rate of perfecting Mai.
In other news, a ND1B run of Stage 4 occurred. It would've been perfect, but I panicked.
EDIT: Ha, even without safespotting that attack is still quite easy. Now to perfect the entire stage (damn that one part) without dying / bombing, in addition to fighting Yuki (at some point later).
EDIT 2: ZUN stuck a collision box on Mai. To prevent the abuse of certain safespots I would imagine.
EDIT 3: And that's Lunatic Yuki and Mai perfected. Yuki is so much better for score <3
Now I wonder if I can get a Perfect Stage 5 out before I give this USB away so I can upload the videos at a much more affordable price...

IN Magic Team 1cc. (http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g229/Krimsun_Munkey/untitled-41.jpg) Sloppy run (to be expected since I haven't played seriously in a month or so, and didn't practice this at all), but it means:

HELL YEAH NO DEATHS STAGE PORTION OF SHOU HARD. (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5677) EAT THAT NAZRIN.

Ignore the random curious "hey, I've never played this game before, let's try this on Lunatic!" game-over-on-Stage-1 runs under Reimu A from mid-2008.
-
I thought this would never happen. (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5683)
All but maybe two bombs were panicbombs (I autobomb Kogasa Train easy, but not normal O.o), and it wasn't until I watched the replay afterward that I realized that Byakuren (or is it just her last card?) is immune to bombs. :/
-
Random practice run in SA on Stage 6 Normal.
I captured her first, third and fourth card FOR THE FIRST TIME.
Now only the second is left to be captured...
-
Had a great run of MS hard. My first death was on Yumeko, as I had no bombs by then. Furthermore I didn't die to any of her streaming phases! Did rather poor on Shinki, though.
On a side note: Even though she is noticably harder, I always aim for fighting against Yuki in stage 4. For once, her fight is much more fun. Other than that, Mai is probably the least likable character in the entire series.

Of course I was playing unfocused! However, my shift button occasionally managed to turn itself on and off at opportune moments. Very odd. :3

UFO extra cleared :V I'm glad I got this over with way quicker than EoSD, so many close attempts and stupid mistakes, but finally had a good run making it to her last card with 3 lives. Finished with 1 life and 2 bombs, that spel is indeed way harder than it looks.
http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5685
Up next: MoF ;D
-
I have to say, while SA's patterns generally fill me with rage, that makes it all the more elating when I beat them. BoWaP captures in particular are euphoric. ;D
Also, y'all worship GODrake for moving through the wheels of Ghost Wheels? I did it NON-TAS. :O :O :O
Sure it was purely luck because the wheels move too fast to time, but...
-
lol double post.
Anyway, just beat SA extra with Reimu B. Her pathetic damage making her useless next to Reimu A aside, she's probably the second easiest to use because she has a small hitbox and doesn't require any odd gimmick. I think my punishment for using Reimu A is that her dialogue is really boring. :( Even Yukari is unusually dull in this game.
-
MoF extra down! All I needed was to timeout that last spell instead of trying to shoot it down. The last 5 seconds of that, dodging at 0.00 power, was the most intense thing ever- I could literally feel my heart pounding~

Anyway, thanks to Ruro, I finally got my hands on the PCB demo. It sadly wasn't the earliest version where Alice was completely different, but still...just looking at this picture should give you an idea of how it was different. There were no supernatural borders, lives were given out based on points, and the stages were...quite different. It was almost like an arrange mode. The spell cards all had subtle differences as well, and Alice had a third non-spell that she just plain didn't have in the final version (no it didn't even look like her second one that ends after one attack).
If anyone can find me the earliest version, I would be very thankful.

After so much bitching...
http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5697
UFO 1cc! Yay! Easy up until Murasa where I died twice on her survival and once on the vortex spell. Stage 5 was fine until Shou where I didn't bomb and died multiple stupid deaths... Byakuren was easy until Flying Fantastica. I probably could have capped Star Maelstrom, but since I was low on resources, I didn't want to risk a stupid death :X

Baity you pimp! I'd rather have that success rate with Gengetu though. ;) I'd love to hear your tips on how to score better.
I'm still worried, since I appear to be failing to reproduce it. 3 of the 4 stream attacks are now at 97% success rate each approximately; I've mastered them. The 4th one however, is a different case and absurdly difficult; I'd probably place it as the single hardest non-timeout attack yet.
Keep in mind that if I want to use this "secret technique" to absurdly increase my chance of survival, I need to be in position during the 3rd stream attack. And that's not good. There is no safespot by the way :V
Score better? In MS? Simple; PoC as much as possible for Stage(s) 1 (and / or 2); following that you perfect the rest of the game. Keep in mind that bombing with one of the characters (Yuka) DESTROYS the Dream Gauge.

Fixed grammatical error in the above post.
Now it's time to learn the... Post-Mid-Boss waves. The bullets instead of being aimed around you like in EoSD, is aimed at you. Macrododging time!

All characters have 3 bombs. Bombing during a boss reduces the damage they take. But, I guess so; since the spread is a blessing, much like Reimu's Homing. Longest bomb duration too.

I normally have cold hands and when playing most console games I can hand my controller to a friend and have them say it feels like a ghost was playing or conversly take a controller from someone else and it always feels so warm. But when I was fighting Remilia my hands were sweaty, shaky messes. Glee!
Apparently someone already did that for me. Thanks moderator. :3 (That being moving this into the Accomplishment Thread.)

The thing? I'm pretty sure this demo is up for download on ZUN's official Touhou site. The real gem is the version before this, which as I have heard is very rare and after other people searching has eluded capture. It has the fabled "lost spell cards" that are on the wiki.

Most. Distracting. Background. Evar. Without it, the attack would still be mean, but it would become cappable. As is, I practically have to bomb every time I blink because my eyes cannot focus back on the bullets fast enough with all the coloured dots flying by... :-X

Got to Shinki on lunatic. :D

I will NEVER understand how people find backgrounds distracting. Just focus on the bullets, and even the most flashy background will be just that: A backdrop. Now my acid trip background on the other hand...
Anyways, I think I just discovered an extremely obvious yet easily missed way to make the first half of SA stage 5 even easier. I also discovered that you actually have a high chance of survival if you charge through the spirits on Ghost Wheels. I don't know if I was just getting insanely lucky or what, but I did it nearly 10 times before losing all my lives doing it. If anything, this says that if you mess up and have a wheel right on top of you, you have a better chance of survival charging through it than trying to get out of the way.

YEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
My 1000th post, and it can't get any better :V

Fun stuff. Got to Byakuren with 6 lives and 3 bombs, lost first life on her 4th nonspell, wanted to bomb Devil's Recitation but decided it would be fucking cool to capture it(and I did), then Air Scroll.....I've died at the final wave just before she would die. Never failed it there. Had a bomb left. Yeah :V
Then I've completely screwed up LFO, died 2 times with 2 bombs.
Notable crap: NO DEATH ICHIRIN. However, I've died 2 times at the stage.
Captured Murasa's survival. Always screwed it up on the real attempt.

I need to play more :(

You hated UFO, do PC-98. >:D
I didn't hate it, I've just had a really, really shitty stage 2 bomb route.
Once I've figured one out, I've reached Byakuren with 5 more lives than usual....
PC98 on the other hand....tried MS Lunatic what does it even have, and damn....I'm not doing this :V
-
stage 2 bomb route.
? You need to bomb on stage 2? More than once? There's only one hard part of the whole stage even on lunatic. :P
And MS lunatic is great fun, the only hard part is that it gives you only 7 lives to work with (8 if you are good at collecting point items without a PoC). Even then it's balanced out by the fact that the first 3 stages are pretty easy.

Meant UFO route >.>
Still bombed 2 times so I could get more UFOs, and it has probably paid off.
-
Perhaps that's your problem. I don't think I bombed for UFOs on stage 2 during my lunatic 1cc, I even screwed up a red UFO and got it destroyed before I got two fragments (thrice since this happened on stage 1 and 3) and still had max lives by Murasa.

Yeah but you had a MASSIVE chain going in post-Nue stage 4. Not exactly trivial to pull off, so it kinda evens out. You were in a good position either way and could've probably 1cc'ed it even without that mass chaining seeing as you ended with lives to spare but stage 4 can make or break any run.
-
I can get Dream Max on MS Stage 1 Lunatic. =3
Granted, I hardly ever actually do it, and I usually end up in the yellow part.
-
Two accomplishments, both actually the same:
1. Did MoF stage 5 no bombs one death. Moses' Miracle cost me a perfect stage run (ANOTHER one god dammit when will I finally do it? :<)
2. Did MoF stage 6 no bombs one death. o_O This was a completely random run, so...

Just getting through Kanako's opener was a jolt for me, I was definitely not expecting to get all the way to VoWG without a single bomb or death. Truth be told I was disappointed by my death, but at the same time I knew not to get my hopes up.

My capture rate on her first nonspell is same as on VoWG....can anyone do it consistently?

I can do both consistently :V

I captured "Secretly Inherited Art of Danmaku" and "Takeminakata Invocation" in a single run!
Both are Sanae's Lunatic cards *____*

I normally have cold hands and when playing most console games I can hand my controller to a friend and have them say it feels like a ghost was playing or conversly take a controller from someone else and it always feels so warm. But when I was fighting Remilia my hands were sweaty, shaky messes. Glee!
Apparently someone already did that for me. Thanks moderator. :3 (That being moving this into the Accomplishment Thread.)
Look, I know stuff from the outside world can find itself in Gensokyo.
But "Youmu plays EoSD and posts about it on the Internet" is a bit of a stretch even for that, don't you think?

I just found out through experimentation that Yumeko's knives (Lunatic only?) move faster than Reimu unfocused. Judging by the relative speeds, I don't think they're as fast as Mima. Might be just a little slower than Marisa too I might add. That being said, I've worked out a nice consistent method of dealing with the streams as Reimu.
I should upload one MS Lunatic 1cc using Yuka entitled "Speed isn't everything"; and alongside it one with Mima entitled "Speed is everything" :V
Stage 5 MS check-list before perfection comes along:
Yumeko- Post-Mid-Boss Fairies
Post-Mid-Boss Fairies
Post-Mid-Boss Fairies

I'm pretty sure I can capture VoWG Lunatic consistently now, barring utterly retarded deaths.
Post midboss MS Stage 5 was probably the inspiration for post midboss EoSD Stage 5, except MS is harder there. =V

IN Extra with 6 deaths. SIX DEATHS !! If I concentrate more, this might very well be my first Extra clear !
Captured a LOT of stuff, especially Hourai Doll even when I screwed up the circle streaming.
Fujiyama Volcano is still BS as always :(

I decided to unlock MoF lunatic for stage practice with ReimuB, so I did. :V
I hadn't realized how much I depend on the homing amulets in this game. Every stage portion got significantly harder and the water fall spam went from "damn I can't do this" to "what is this I don't even". Had to try several times to get past stage 1.
Actually, coming to think of it, it took less tries for me to clear stage 6 than to clear stage 1 or 2. Figures...

MoF Stage 1 is complete bullshit.
Not to mention MoF Reimu-A is has the best homing of all Touhou games. The game changes completely once you use another character.

You get 7 lives for IN Extra if you collect 666 point items and don't do whatever it is that causes the death fairy to not drop a life (I seriously have no idea what makes this drop a bomb instead, but it happens sometimes).

Go to the bottom left corner with the border team. Yay, safespot!

Is it actually possible for the death-fairy to drop a bomb instead? I haven't noticed it but sometimes i have noticed having more than 666 point items and still only 5 lives despite not dying once and having picked everything up after Keine.

I'm assuming you are talking Lunatic mode right?

The IN Death Fairy drops a bomb if you kill it with bomb damage instead of shot damage if I recall correctly. It's easy to avoid if you bomb early in the pattern though (or just memorize it).

Made it to Yukari in SWR hard. I must say, me and Youmu play well together, much more than we did in IaMP. She can replace her clunky default moveset with much more useful ones and can really lay the smackdown on spell cards.
The problem is that Doppler Effect is going to be kind of a run stopper until I figure out what to do. :[

Memorize it? I just dodge it.
Unless moving from left to right and vice versa whenever the coast is clear is memorizing.

Are the spellcards harder on higher difficulties? That one wtfpwned me on Easy.
-

Yes son, the opponents have a tendency to get more difficult as the difficulties rise. ::)
It's quite confusing though, because no matter how I move it always finds a way to get me, and Yukari is vulnerable for only about a second. Ideally I want to use a spell card to end the attack ASAP, but due to the random nature of when cards are available when, I can't count on that.

Is losing 2 lifebars to Tenshi's final normal? :V

Second easiest? I know its not that hard if you know what you are doing but how would it ever be easier than Flaw of Forgiving Shrine, Xu Fu, the second one with the phoenixes or Honest Man's death?
Errr make that third easiest, after Flaw of Forgiving Shrine and Honest Man's Death (which I had forgot :V)
Xu Fu's Dimension hates me and I hate it. So many stupid deaths, even sometimes with Border Team. And since I play IN Extra once in a blue moon I always forget what I'm supposed to do on Flying Phoenix.
Sure, back when I was trying to crack IN extra it took me about 70 or 80 attempts in spell practice to find out how to do Fujiyama Volcano, and I only found the go-around-Mokou method by accident (got trapped in the top corner with nowhere else to go). It's probably the single card which gave me the most trouble before I understood it. But back then I didn't even know streaming and had hit a brickwall in StB's Straw Doll Kamikaze. :V
-
Xu Fu is "GO TO BOTTOM, MOVE UP SLIGHTLY, THEN DODGE HORIZONTALLY". How do you mess that up?

Although... I'd pay money to see that spellcard captured higher up on the screen.
Edit:Okay, its not THAT hard to do it higher up, but its a lot more confusing.

You seem to lack control when you're at the top of the screen.
Go practice timing out Phoenix's Tail (IN Extra) from the top of the screen. Trust me, it'll help.
-
You're right, I have always had a big problem doing dodging that high up the screen for some reason. I can dodge Phoenix Tail for about 30 seconds up there, but it doesn't help that it's extremely cramped and Mokou fires an aimed bullet as a counter if you go up there. This problem also crops up on Undefined Darkness. V_V The problem is defininitely more the fact that the lasers are so unforgiving in that spell card.
As a consolation though, I seem to be able to reach Syou without dying with more consistency. \o/ Sadly this is never with more than one bomb.

Personal Record: 45 seconds (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5727) (keep in mind that you don't actually start dodging a lot of bullets until about 10 seconds in, so it should be more like 35 seconds).
The aimed bullet was always there. It's just a lot more noticeable because you're closer to Mokou. And it's not cramped at all actually; it's just the uneasiness of dodging from the top of the screen. The bullets overall are less dense up there in reality (just barely) :V

I think I'm getting better at this. (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5730)

One day, I will figure out Most Valuable Vajra .... on the other hand, Flying Fantastica should be mine soon.

Capped Eirin's an Tewi's Last words. Two less!
(Seriously, Unlocking Eirin's is far more difficult than capping it.)

I sadly didn't get either a replay (realized I had screwed things up when making the English patch and therefore replays have never been saving until now when I fixed it) or a picture (don't know why print screen didn't work), but I 1cc'd SWR hard! :D I'm rather proud of the strategy I figured out for Scarlet Weather Rhapsody of all Mankind, which allowed me to beat it losing only one life.
As for Doppler Effect? One of Youmu's spell cards destroys it in nearly one hit. :>

What...extra ? Yay...2nd try today...
(also, did I score it wrong ?)

Today I finally managed to beat Helepolis' souped-up Lunatic version of "The Great Galaxy of Spiritus". That thing assaults the mind I tell you - you're just running through the same motions again and again and again, hoping that it will all come to an end while you're still alive.
I've now beaten all of the script's sequences individually without losing any lives. All there's left now is to string it all together into one single perfect run. :)
:V

MoF extra cleared :) Well that was easy.... in the end I just thought fuck it and I spammed bombs on my last life till she died (god damn the waves are dense in the end o.O). I wonder what I will clear next :V

IN extra cleared after 2 weeks of practice

Ah ha ha...I can see SWR lunatic is going to take a while...Still, I managed to unlock all spell cards by just barely reaching Scarlet Weather Rhapsody of all Mankind with all my continues. Is it just me, or are the first two parts actually harder than the laser?

So, the down-arrow key on my laptop is completely busted. I was DESPAIRing about it because I wouldn't be able to play Touhou until I get my new laptop in December (or buy a USB keyboard which I feel is dumb for a laptop).
Then I no-vertical perfected PCB Stages 1-3 on Hard and found some parts of Stage 4 easier because I can observe more of the stage now while playing.
This is going to be a fun two months. :V
EDIT: Fuck. I don't think it's possible to capture Youmu's [Asura Sword] or Alice's [Chalk White Russian Dolls] without vertical movement...

Then I no-horizontal perfected PCB Stages 1-3 on Hard
Wow, so you only moved up? :V

Tried to 1cc EoSD Normal again...and I actually made it to Remilia this time! Unfortunately, my ability to deathbomb is far under par, and I died to the second nonspell.
It's an improvement from my last few attempts, though.

Finally capped Ran's 8-7.
Now all the StB scenes I have yet to capture are at stages 10 and EX. Huzzah.
I would kill myself now, but Komachi would be waiting for me with her 10-5 D:
-
I CAPTURED COMPLETE CLARIFICATION TWICE IN A ROW.
My squeezing skills are also improving xD . I've just pulled off a couple of seemingly impossible squeezes through GT and RTG's waves of bullets.

I didn't even touch Touhou for TWO DAYS
Usually, I only touch it on weekends. :V
And then there was the time when I didn't play it for a month.

Aaagh, so close...
One bomb on Kanako's opener, everything else up to VoWG captured. Almost capped that too, then went for the no-bomb timeout again, but I screwed up four times in the last 35 seconds, so it ended up being another seven-death timeout. Still, a pretty good run that almost made up for the CRAP before it.
and for all you people who are not impressed except Baity and 'nut and Sapz go try to time out VoWG without bombing yourself and see how long it takes you

Hooray for mastering the stage portion (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5747); I've been meaning to getting around to learning it for a while.
Also, if anybody's interested, I've started to take up (eye) Reaction Time Tests (http://www.humanbenchmark.com/tests/reactiontime/index.php) daily to slowly improve my reflex (not reflexes, as I'm only training my eye ones). Once a day, 10 clicks after 5 warmup ones. Guaranteed to improve your bombing reflexes.

Speaking of Stage 4, i got myself a capture of Water Elf, Bury in Lake and Green Storm Lunatic. Now i'm just missing Megalith and Mercury Poison and i'll be done with ReimuB's patchy cards.

...Wait, what? I'm pretty sure that I have done Cirno on Lunatic perfectly before <_< And I can't even 1cc SA or PoFV Normal/any Hard mode besides LLS ._.;
-

Bcause Cirno is heavy on randomness (even for EoSD's standards), which is a bit of an equalizer, making all the grinding and methodization that often goes into becoming a top player less useful there?

Imperishable Night Extra cleared using only one bomb at rings of death. Everything else perfected. I'm very happy right now. Except about the score. 1,980,000,000+. So much for not giving me those 2 billion.
Mercury Poison Lunatic was a 1 attempt capture for me :V
Maybe i just screwed up. Or maybe it was because of rank. Those things were moving pretty fast... I didn't die at all in the stage, bombed the books, perfected the rest, captured Bury in Lake, Green Storm and Water Elf (i'm pretty sure that's the order) so the rank might have been higher than when you did it.
-
rank
way to go zun, shit on your achievements because we've died too much :V
-
Base Rank "Mercury Poison" > Max Rank "Mercury Poison"
Well, I find it like that anyway :V
-
way to go zun, shit on your achievements because we've died too much :V
I wouldn't think of that as too much. I'd say a capture of a card is a capture of a card. No matter what the rank is at.
If not, then who would define what rank a card should be captured at? And how would we go about checking if its too low? Would we just have to try the stage over and over again to get it at max rank and try to beat it there?
No. That would be nonsense. Unless you are one of those that doesn't have a life... then maybe.
-
So I was playing a couple random Touhou extra stages for my sis...mainly to let her see me die in many ways.
I go to try EoSD's Extra Stage (Well, she picked that out for me to try and fail at).
Two attempts at that later...
EoSD Extra Clear (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5758)
...What :o? I have not practiced this extra stage very much, if at all. Perhaps 20-30ish attempts max. My previous best was making it to Maze of Love.
This was the first time I got past that card (Dying on it of course due to stupidity). Somehow I made it to the end after that.
Considering I had near death close calls on Counter Clock and AWTBN (Came far too close to clipdeaths on those two cards), I'm shocked to have survived.
Almost capped Q.E.D too. Go go dying as Flandre explodes. Cleared 0/3 and had the hitbox patch active, but still, I'm pretty amazed and happy right now.
-

Congratulations with it. It seems to happen quite opften with those extra stages. You try it a lot and you never seem to get anywhere and suddenly you just beat it.
Oh and congrats on making it so far on QED on your first attempt. Just don't get over-confident. Those few moments when Flan blows up are the most dangerous ones...
-
...and a 1DNF timeout of "VoPB" (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5759) with Marisa. Screw the successful timeout, that's close enough to one.
-
Captured Greatest Treasure on uhh ... Normal.
It seems to be even harder than Lunatic O_o
-
Skipped ahead a bit in an effort to fend off frustration (HATE PCB STAGE 4 HATE HATE HATE), wound up 1CCing Mountain of Faith Easy with ReimuA. Why does that last spell card take so long D:
-
No ... I couldn't have pulled THIS (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vitn_E7CV5I) off :o
-
(http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/8529/knockout.png)
Pronounce "KNOCK OUT" like the announcer in the final battle of Donkey Kong 64 when you die.
The rage building up because of wasting an entire day on this lunatic makes it all the sweeter when you pull it off. SWR lunatic 1cc, that makes 15. That means UNL is the one lunatic left before I've claimed every single one in the series! :D
However, I'd highly prefer to wait until the English patch comes out for it, so I guess I'll settle back down for now.
-
I went to S5 in EoSD to fight Sakuya (mainly because she's a much better boss than Shou is)
and i managed to perfect anything in it aside from Killing Doll. Yeah, at that point i guess rank had built up quite a lot. I can remember that the knives speed halved when it got me.
Real intense on the non-spells too. I love the second one, especially when its rank is high.
I don't think i want to go for a perfect Sakuya battle though as the game don't save replays. It might happen by accident though.
-
Imperishable Night LUNATIC 1CC :D :D :D

Now i think i ought to go take a break. I've earned it.
-
^ PARSEE.
Captured Stygian Riverside L or whatever it's called and failed the rest.
The bullets in PCB move in a really, REALLY weird manner >_>
How long has it been ... ? Probably 3 months. I'm tackling on Lunatic right now :D
Apparently my skills improve after a week or so of -epic- fail. Last week I had stupid deaths that made me wonder if I should even continue playing :D
-
Copied (http://www.replays.gensokyo.org/download.php?id=5779) Kefit (http://www.replays.gensokyo.org/download.php?id=412).
...89 tries in comparison to his 266, but I had some pre-practice (maybe another 120 or so here and there), and also some of my attempts were NF or NV or even NFNV attempted timeouts. So I estimate about 180-190 tries.
-
I captured VoWG lunatic, this time being differentiated by me doing it on a school computer, whose controls feel stiffer than my home computers for some reason.
-
Hah! IN Extra cleared! Just barely managed it, but I did it~

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS
After listening to Bananamatic and Donut telling me not to ragequit if I die in stages 3 and 4 I've done it!
EoSD Hard 1cc finally! That's three hard modes 1cc'd! =)
http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5788
Captured Patchouli's last 3 cards on very high rank!
Is it just me or is Mercury Poison much easier on max rank than it is on lower rank?
many many deaths with bombs in stock and a ridiculous death at Remilia's 2nd non-card, yes the easy one where she throws knives around...
-
So, I just did a no focus, no bombs run of PCB Easy. Stupid death on stage 2, perfect stage 3, one or two deaths on stage 4 before the Prismrivers (forgot which) one death to Youmu's opener as it spawns a bullet on me, and then finally get almost slaughtered by Yuyuko, but somehow manage to get through with three lives left... Of course, failed Resurrection Butterfly at the last wave <_<;
-
1cc of PCB Normal with the added bonus of a perfect stage 6 :D
http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5790
Everything else was horrible though. Oh well.
-
I somehow managed to cut the back of my finger while playing, and not noticing till right after when it started hurting, does that count as an accomplishment? Elsewise, 1CCing IN on normal with the border team, first 1cc in touhou not on IN easy/fighter
-
VoWG no bomb timeout is down to five deaths!
Huzzah!
-
Holy crap what. I got fed up with PCB Normal after game-overing to the Prismrivers for the fifth time, and went back to EoSD to vent some anger. Of course, I struggled on Stage 4 as normal, but then...

Got Stage 5 of MoF down. I can most likely do the stage with a single bomb, two if I mess up. Sanae herself will probably eat two more, but four bombs over a whole Lunatic Stage 5? Pretty good, I think.
Also spent a while testing out a friend's theory that you can cheese out Storm Day by sitting right under Aya a little to the right; you can't. The arcs are different every time, or so I believe. Baity, confirm?
-

SA only.
MoF's is too difficult to do 100% of the time. Your friend just got extremely lucky.
-

MoF's is too difficult to do 100% of the time.
Am I to understand by that that SA's are also not exactly the same each wave, but there's time to dodge? Or that SA's are static? Because I'm pretty darn sure (after yet further testing) that MoF's are random.
-
SA's
has a true blind spot that you can use and abuse
. Edited the above post.
-
Ah, OK. Thanks for confirmation.
Also, MoF has far too many static cards. I just sat down and learned several...if I can't 1cc it now, there is something truly wrong...
-
http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5797
Hahaha yes
-
Uh...wow.
I went ahead and unlocked SoEW Extra, finally.
It took me around 20 tries to get to Evil Eye Sigma...ohdearlord that stage is going to take a lot of practice. That said, I lasted surprisingly long with no lives.
-
What once intimidated me, I now laugh at. (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5798)

I dare you to try to time it out with those conditions.
I've known that little quirk for ages :V
EDIT: And I just pulled said Spell Card down to 8 seconds NV.

That's gonna be fun. >_>

[/sarcasm]
Forgot to give the replay (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5799).

I didn't even realize that was possible.

Also, I was going to tell you to edit your post, but it seems you did it already.
-
Once a while a pacifist spell card challenge (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5800) is fun. 13 tries? Why this kind of luck doesn't come at scorerunning instead.
-
This is much more impressive than a NDNB run (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5802).
-
1CC of PCB Easy with SakuyaA. SakuyaB is all that's left, before twenty-four full playthroughs of Imperishable Night.
-
HmhmhmhmHEHEHEHHAHAHAHA
YES!!!
MOUNTAIN OF FAITH LUNATIC 1CC (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5805)
YES
YES
GODDAMNIT YES
...the worst part was when I died twice - TWICE - on YASAKA'S DIVINE WIND. Sanae's LOLEASY spellcard killed me TWICE, and then I was down to two lives going into Stage 6, and I died on Yamato Torus. Which left one life in stock and full power for VoWG. Panicbombed it like crazy, died, WON!!!
HA HA HA OH DAMN IS IT AWESOME
OH YES
HAHAHA YES
I'VE BEEN TRYING TO DO THIS FOR AROUND 5 MONTHS SOLID
YES!!!

1DNB run. Now, it's pretty damn hard for me to prove that it's 1DNB, but I'm quite sure that the full Dream Gauge speaks for itself. If I had used bombs in between, there would have been absolutely no way that I could have replenished the meter to Max again.
That single death to the opener had me breezing through the rest of the battle.
-
I'm uploading my SWR lunatic 1cc once it finishes compressing. This is an accomplishment because even though Fraps was being difficult again and arbitrarily glitching videos, forcing me to rerecord the run 3 times, I didn't botch it like my MS extra run. \o/ Though I have to say a version of that for SWR would be trippy as all hell.
-
cbf doing any better at this point. I want to practice-grind Stage 6 now.
(http://i80.servimg.com/u/f80/12/80/32/92/th/untitl54.png) (http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=324&u=12803292)
ND2B. Video to come (if ever) at a later date.
EDIT: Interesting to note that my 1DNB run has a higher score. Perhaps not bombing is the key? Since bombing doesn't seem to have any effect on Rank anyway.
Right! Time to start work on Stage 6...
...and holy crap what is this I don't even. Rank is killer stuff (as usual).
-
LFO Lunatic, one death !
And quite a few impossible-looking stunts as well.
EDIT : Sinkable Vortex, Lunatic (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSeeky0-Bbk)
I can't believe what I just did ...
-
after clearing eosd ufo and mof extra I decided to work a little on my spell practice cards from IN (I love to unlock new last words) so after unlocking two I thought... hmm 'clear extra with 3 teams', well I already cleared it twice with reimu/yukari so how hard can it be?
So after 2 months since my last IN extra run I try it with yukari solo, I reach mokou with 4 lives (died right at the end of keine's last spell damnit!) thinking: With a bit better stage clear I could defintely do it... turned out I could already do it and ended with a life left :V for me this really shows how much I improved on skill the last 2 months, going from 'barely clearing' to 'oh let's just clear it because I'm bored' status ;D
Btw: Does yukari solo count as a team? Or do I need to clear extra with 3 different pairings? (most likely gonna be border magic and netherdwellers)
-
Btw: Does yukari solo count as a team?
As far as I know, it does.
On topic:
So I open SA only to see that the version I had backed up had not a single 1cc. Damn. But then I thought that this is the perfect opportunity to unlock stage practice on easy for all shottypes as the extra-locking bug cannot occur if the extra isn't unlocked to begin with.
SA easy no bombs 3 death clear. First death on Parsee because my finger slipped off. Second death on Parsee because I moved to the poc to get the starpiece when the illusion image of her second spellcard spawned on top of me. Third death on Orin's second nonspell because the bullets were slower than expected, so my usual hard tactic didn't work. So yeah. :V
5 easy and normal mode 1ccs + at least 1 hard and 1 extra clear to go. And I have to unlock lunatic for stage practice again. Oh god...
-
woohoo beat IN extra with nether team now and unlocked Alice's last word :3 Kinda sucked in the end tough, I got hit in the 2nd phase of possesed by phoenix and I bombed with youmu, and if you know youmu's bomb that basically means the slaves spawned at the bottom and at the top making it pretty much impossible to dodge afterwards x_x Also fujiwara volcano: FFFFUUUUU!
-
After a rather shaky UFO stage 4 run where I'm getting back into things (Unexpected Genre Switches do that to you), I end up capturing Dipper Creeping Close. :O
Then, trying stage 5, I ALMOST capture Vajra. If I were at full power I would have outlived it. :<
A run after that, I get through the stage no deaths and reach Syou with 3 bombs. I even captured her second non-spell, but ended up dying on her third non-spell. T_T
EDIT: YEAH! SA stage 5 lunatic no deaths at last! I had to dance around Young Demon's Revival with no power for a very intense ending.
Also, memo to self. LOOK at what the menu option says before selecting it. This should explain the lack of a replay. >_>
-
Captured "Catwalk" 3 times in a row. Now to see if this run doesn't crash on me / clipdeath during Orin / post-mid / etc.
EDIT: And it just did. Go figure.
Woo! I figured out all of Shinki's attacks!
This perfect run is going to be easier than I thought.
-
Yah butt u use savestates so u suk. >:(
(http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/6345/awwi.png)
You know, I like ZUN's art; it gives a distinctive feel to Touhou that it wouldn't have if ZUN was a better artist. On the other hand, whoever makes the art in the fighting games is amazing...
UNL normal 1cc. \o/ I REALLY hate how close the last spell card always gets. After going through this, I am sticking to my plan of holding off on this until the English patch (go go patchers! I know you guys have at least gotten as far as inserting English into the game). Not just for actually configuring a deck, but for the dialogue. The dialogue in UNL from what I've read is freaking awesome, and from that Touhou endings wiki, I know that Meiling's ending is particularly d'aaaaaaaaw.
-
Yah butt u use savestates so u suk. >:(
Except all of my savestates are at the start of the stage. Meaning it's basically Stage Practice (that reminds me, I should get around to SoEW / LLS at a later date).
That being said, I should mention that I think Shinki's hardest phase is the opener.
-
lol, really? I've always found her third phase to be her hardest. I don't even know why, it doesn't look that hard, but it gets me every time.
-
Savestates ? In the PC-98 games ? HOOOOW ? :o
P.S.: alphes did the art for the fighting games which I'm all crazy over right now :D
-
I actually managed to 1cc MoF Hard. I was bombing alot though, so I don't
really feel it's worth uploading. In fact, most of the spellcards I bombed on I
probably could have captured, but I'll work on my bombspamming
later.
I can safely say MoF is the easiest game to
bombspam in, since in several situations you can bomb and regain
enough power for another bomb instantly.
-
lol, really? I've always found her third phase to be her hardest. I don't even know why, it doesn't look that hard, but it gets me every time.
Is it the initial spray? I've survived it a few times, but more often than not it gets me when I think I'm in the clear.
It can throw you off sometimes, and at Max Rank (or Base Rank even) Shinki will sometimes throw a large and very quick bullet at you, which is probably the cause of your death most of the time.
Also, I could not help but notice the number of blindspots that most some of these bosses have... Shinki has at least 2 >_>
Savestates ? In the PC-98 games ? HOOOOW ? :o
T98-Next.
Spoiler'd for certain reasons.
F11, then F(1-4) to save.
F12, then F(1-4) to load.
Keep in mind that it does occasionally glitch the graphics. If you're recording videos (like I did / will be doing) then the glitches will be present in the video. Which is why I make the savestates at the start of the stage.
-
Uh...Baity? You DO know about the safespot on the wing attack, right? If you stand above Shinki it will all miss you. I wouldn't be surprised if this were intentional considering how D: the attack is.
-

Yeah, of course I know about it. It's in my 1cc video after all :V
It seems quite intentional considering the fact that lasers also spawn.
And AM reaches 2.75 billion. This is worth a watch I think.

MoF hard clear. Well it was about time, but I just have so many fuckups in this game that 1ccing is really tough for me. Kinda sad that I game over-ed on aya so I continued from there and made it all the way to Divine virtue of wind God with 3 lives 4.50 power, ended with 2 and ~0,10 power :D I can defintely see myself 1ccing this if I do as well in stage 5 and 6 as I did this run.

Not really, but there's a way to add..."background music" to your video.
I'll use one of my videos (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jB-TtFsJ-Bo) as an example. What I did:
-Record video with MUSIC TURNED OFF. Only sound effects.
-Open your recorded video with Virtual Dub
-File->Save as WAV. This saves the audio for the video (that is, the sound effects) as a .WAV file on your computer.
-Open Audacity. Open the song you want for your BGM and the audio from the video in the same Audacity window. File->Export as .WAV. This will save both the video audio and your BGM in the same .WAV file.
-Go back to VirtualDub. Audio->Audio from other file. Select the .WAV you made in Audacity and you should have both your sound effects and dubbed-over music.

PCB extra cleared with 2 lives left ;D Took me 16 hours, of which ~10 were sleep and ~3 eating/browsing/other stuff. New record for clearing an extra (*cough* compared to a month for IN lol)
I already knew I was gonna do it when I reached Ran with 5 lives instead of 2-3 ::) I also had a bug on the 2nd spellcard, my supernatural border ran out and at the exact same moment I hit a bullet, but it didn't break so all bullets were still there yet the bullet I hit dissapeared :o still died to stupidness right after that...

Okay. Its official.
Baity have just become the Irate Gamer of Kefit's incredible talent.
Anyway... i'm a bit of a copycat too so i went for Mystic Square extra a bit and captured Alice's two final attacks after seeing Donut's vid about it. Took 4 attempts each.
The Wind attack (i suppose it is) i managed to dodge standing in the bottom-middle of the screen. That takes a lot of micrododging. Maybe i should have redirected it to the sides...
And her final attack i'm very happy to have done with now because my eyes would probably had melted if i had to try once more.
-
In a fit of masochism, I watched the world record run of SA. Standard reactions, like "ah ha ha you can do that?", "wow this guy has even less of a life than I do," "WTF you just got 800 million points from one attack," etc. But when I saw the guy do Possessed Fairy, clearly an unprofitable attack, I noticed his strategy: Take a few pot shots at Orin before the fairies wake up, go above her, lure the fairies there, then go back down and take Orin down.
So I tried it myself to see if it was just an illusion of ease.
...
I'M A GENIUS.

I fear asking what you think of other certain players.
Oh hey, another 1 death "Catwalk" timeout. This time, with (undefined)% more food poisoning. I should start administering relief some time soon. Guess I'll be using this (http://touhou.wikia.com/wiki/Imperishable_Night:_Stage_6A_Spell_Cards#Spell_Card_147) Wonder Drug...

I think I know what my problem has been with BoWaP all this time: I don't pay attention to my hitbox enough. While other people seem to be at this wall of only being able to pay attention to what's immediately around their loli, I ironically can't pay attention to my loli exactly. I've tried, and my eyes always snap back to the area around me instead of me myself. The thing is that BoWaP loves to clip death me with its way of moving, and the only way to prevent this is to look right at where I am.
But I still captured it. ;D

The exact same thing happened to me with Radiant Treasure Gun back during that spell card capture rush. After about 20 attempts I realised that I wasn't even really looking at the bullets I was dying to, so I decided on the next attempt to stare right at the hitbox. I captured it on my first attempt like that. :V

PCB Hard 1cc!
That's 4 Hard games 1cc'd!
Next on my list.. SA :V
I don't think I'm ready for this ._.
BTW I got to Yuyuko with 5 lives/1 bomb.. Finished 0/1... That was my worst Yuyuko battle ever! At least I got there with enough resources to guarantee the victory :V
TAKE THAT FINAL BOSS CURSE :V
-
IN Lunatic 1cc (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5847) (with default lives). First Lunatic 1cc in any game! Reached Kaguya at 4/1 and pretty much threw a bomb at almost everything, just because I could.
...I still can't beat UFO Hard though. It's the only windows game I have significant problems with on Hard.

You can if you want. I'm just more or less ranting about the overall survivability potential of all Reimu-related teams.

I'd use someone else if it weren't for the fact that I think everyone else is completely useless in my eyes. :V
-
I just went from 3 spare lives to 6 spare lives just from the Stage 4 stage portion alone. I was pretty reluctant to bomb / died at random places too. This should be an easy 1cc now.
This run is hilarious in the sense that I bombspam because I lost control, failed lol-easy Spell Card, ROYALLY mess up Stage 5, and still make it to Stage 6 (which I have not practiced with this shot type at all) 2/0.
It won't even beat my current High Score.

Derp (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5855).
EDIT: I'm curious. Anybody want to mark it as TAS for me? I want to see what happens. I'd do it myself, but me marking my own replays as being TAS is pretty damn weird.
-
I'm honestly curious to see if it'd work, but it probably wouldn't help if I did it.
Speaking of which, I've been thinking about this whole subject of my 1cc being marked as a TAS. Hal said that him and other players thought that my movements were illogical, and it didn't look like something that would be done without slowdown...But isn't that something completely subjective? Could my erratic movements possibly be because...I had reached stage 5 with like 7 lives in stock on my first try? Nervousness? Could I simply have lucky dodging skills? I just think it's rather silly to judge stuff like that. Next thing you know I'm going to be marked as tool assisted because "I don't think you could death bomb that consistently," or "hey WTF I can't capture that spell card how did you do that obvious TAS"
I dunno, I just think it's dumb.

First problem is Hal himself watching it. Here's a list (http://replays.gensokyou.org/index.php?u=Halbarad&g=--&p=&t=--&d=--&ch=0); it's too hard to gauge his expertise. It's safe to assume that he knows a bit, but he certainly doesn't know the finer points (paraphrased from your log). Doesn't help that he basically went :effort:. It also doesn't help again knowing that the Moderation Team is basically unknown, save for being able to "play at the Lunatic level frequently" (or something along those lines). I have a feeling I know who a few (1-2) of the people are, but I'm not going to name names for obvious reasons.
It should be noted that you've had more time to prepare for the 1cc (lots of Stage 6 practice for you; you've no 1 bombed deathed it, you can cap the final Spell Card consistently, etc.), which naturally means that you'll fare better than most other people (where appropriate).

Your run had much better "resource management" than the replay that I uploaded recently. Honestly, I would be very surprised if my replay makes it through without being CHEESE'd. Watch through it (speed through) and you'll see why.
Also, you can't call somebody out for insane reaction times when deathbombing. Unless it's something like consistent perfect deathbombing in IN.

I just accidentally discovered a new combo for Tenshi.
(http://www.imgplace.com/img141/4158/78holymotherofgod.png)
No control rods used.
Ironically, Border of Life was the stage music when I discovered this :V
-
O_o. Tenshi can deal REAL SOVIET DAMAGE (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VKqLwVrDiI) nao ?
-
2 Death TIMEOUT of "Cheeto Lasers". Rank doesn't affect it at all. No matter how many times I try this attack, it's always so fun to dodge. And the method is so simple as well.
Both deaths were near the end and within 4 seconds of each other.
Now it's a 1 Death timeout.
-
O_o. Tenshi can deal REAL SOVIET DAMAGE (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VKqLwVrDiI) nao ?
That combo is valid for SWR as well, actually.
But on the note of absurd damage, I found that a.214C (Sphere Broom) j214C j214C j2A a.421C (grab) does over 7000 with Yuyuko and works both in the corner and fullscreen. Oh, and it guardcrushes part way through the second 214 if you block.
:/
-
And the method is so simple as well.
Elaborate. I think I know how to do it, and I just always do it wrong, but it's possible I'm completely off again.
-
Video'ing.
The problem is, I normally make some stupid mistake somewhere preventing me from getting a perfect timeout. I'd rather not upload a video with a mistake in it.
-
After seeing that guy in that vid try to pass off 11k as REAL SOVIET DAMAGE I couldn't help but see what I could pull off with control rods thrown into the mix.
(http://www.imgplace.com/img230/710/35realsoviet.png)
Could've done more, but I couldn't figure out a way to make the combo not end the round without either "State of Enlightenment" or "Missing Purple Power", which = more defense.

I've been working on breaking 1 billion points with Reimu B in PCB for a while now. After grabbing the v-sync patch, i do it with Marisa A. I still can't do it with Reimu :(

I realize nobody else cares, but 'nut, why were you one of the people telling me Marisa B PCB was useless because her damage output was so terrible, yet you see everyone in IN as useless but Border team, which has hands-down the WORST damage output of the whole group?
Then again, I guess that's an issue here in general... Everyone tells me damage output is everything, yet nobody ever uses anything but border team in IN.

I should be able to answer this pretty well.
- Smaller hitbox (proven by the way)
- Longer timeframe for using a Last Spell; i.e. deathbomb
Ability to use a Last Spell with 1 bomb in stock Wiki is oversimplifying (or just plain incorrect about) this point- Not the worst damage output (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php?topic=181.msg2959#msg2959)
- Probably has the best bombs overall (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php?topic=181.msg2960#msg2960)
- Homing / Lock-On Shot Types
In short, the highlights of the Border Team are in the auxiliary (support) abilities.
-
And if you don't want to use border team, Nether dwellers will do the trick :V

-
And if you don't want to use border team, Nether dwellers will do the trick :V
If you can get over the faster focus movement speed, sure. You do get a bomb back if you end up not depleting your bomb stock too. Though, that more or less is a wasted bomb if you have extremely poor "bombing reflexes" anyway.
Youmu Solo is actually another very good Shot Type if you can control your Ghostly Half / Myon.
Still waiting for a lunatic 1cc with Sakuya solo to pop up on YouTube. :V
Challenge accepted. Just let me finish off my work for today (which will take 1-2 hours) and submit it into the office (which will probably take another 30 minutes). 6A or B?
-
Both youmu's and yuyuko's focused speed are 1 star, just like reimu and yukari? Unless you meant faster unfocused speed, which ofcourse feels rather fast if you're not used to it. As for bomb returning, you get one with 2 or fewer bombs IIRC, it happens a lot to me that I end stages with 1 or 2 bombs and I get one extra, it's perfect for no-death runs.
-
In short, the highlights of the Border Team are in the auxiliary (support) abilities.
My issue is the fact these support abilities are apparently supposed to be that great here, yet they don't seem to make a difference in other games. Most of these supporting stuff (aside from deathbomb stuff, but really, most of you guys can deathbomb relatively reliably without the need for the extra time) still exist in games like PCB and UFO in the form of Reimu Homing, yet people insist that Needle Reimu/Christmas Tree Marisa should be used instead because their damage output is so much better. Heck, going back to what brought on this topic: any time I mention the shot type I use in topics a few people always make sure to let me know just how much better the statistically best shot type is due to how much stronger it is, yet for IN damage output doesn't seem to be all that important.
While it bothers me, I can at least understand why people keep trying to push me to use the better shot types. However, IN seems to use an entirely different standard when the game itself doesn't play all that much differently from the others (scoring with teams nonwithstanding).
-

I believe something along the lines of this was raised.
(paraphrased)
Only 1 bomb is needed to survive most attacks
The same thing applies here with IN and the Border Team. Tested it just then; most Spell Cards could be taken out with shooting, bombing once the bullets reach you and finishing off the Spell Card. That is, about 80-90% of Spell Cards could be 1 bomb cleared with the Border Team. Talk about a bombspam victory.

Yeah, pretty much anyone not named Alice can do this. In fact I believe I used Yuyuko's a crapload during my first IN 1CC just ignore that it was easy mode because I was that terrible back then.

Hi, Touhouholics Anonymous, I am Sapz and I haven't touched a Touhou game in ten days.

But on a serious note, I just started playing again for the first time since October. I expected to be rusty as hell, so I decided to try something hard so I wouldn't feel bad about failing. So, I open up Stage Practice.
And so, copying Baity (and also copying his trend of copying people :V)... Reimu Solo no focus capture of Hourai Elixer Lunatic (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5866).
But wait, there's more!

I didn't expect that, but it seems taking a break still works wonders at my current skill level. Maybe I'll try it with Youmu constant shooting soon. At any rate, looks like I've still got it~

Okay, Sakuya and Remi have weaker bombs than I thought, but Youmu's and Marisa's are both stronger, and Yuyuko's can potentially be.
Just use Yuyuko's bomb the same way you use Marisa's Stardust Reviere in PCB or ESoD and it will pretty much take care of any card giving you trouble.

Beat Sakuya on Hard mode no deaths. All three bombs, but no deaths.

I got bored and decided to screw around in IN's spell practice. After ruining my 100% cap rates on Phoenix Tail and Possessed by Phoenix, I decided to go try some last words, where screwing up would be expected.
The results of that?
Deflation World: 0/0 -> 1/10
Saigyouji Flawless Nirvana: 0/6 -> 1/9
I actually squealed a little when I capped Saigyouji Flawless Nirvana :V

Here Sapz, watch this and know why I refuse to get serious about EoSD extra no deaths. I know I'm perfectly capable of it, but you see those two deaths in this? Those deaths at those two specific places are why I hate doing stuff like this, and I'll never understand how you have the patience to perfect extra stages.
Otherwise, this had me beating Flan only making two mistakes: A bomb at Catadioptric (hey Sapzmeister, tell me how to make this attack easy; it's one of the few spell cards here I can't capture consistently), and a HURRRRRRRR death on Q.E.D. For the lazy, the other death was on the last possible part of the stage where I could possibly have died.
After ruining my 100% cap rates
Oh yeah, that reminds me! I'm on a mission to ruin every 100% capture I have. A few nights ago I went up to Utsuho's opener, went "YEE-HAW" and charged straight up (ironically I made it 3/4 up the screen before it hit me even then. XD), and last night I let Yukari's Spirited Away penetrate me. Once I stop being lazy I'll do the same for Shackles a Criminal Can't Remove. It'll just make it more fun, not to worry about ruining a perfect record. Otherwise I'll end up like Von Karma.

Sakuya A is hardly the best shot type. To show you why, try doing a no bombs run with her. When you don't have something like 40 "get out of pattern free" cards, you see that she's actually quite mediocre.

Do your best to dump her and never touch her again.....I've had the same view too, but once I've started using ReimuB, I wouldn't touch SakuyaA again.

EoSD Extra etc
1. Far as I can see, you're reading the waves of the death fairy wrong. You could have cleared that last wave with ease, but you for some reason dodged in the other direction which got you a blue wall in the face. :V
2. Philosopher's Stone. You capped this, but it's a lot easier if you start from shotgunning Patchy and stream it directly downward with tiny movements left or right if they're necessary.
3. The books you seem fine with, you just got unlucky, I think. :V
4. Catadioptric. You seem really hesitant and reluctant to make big movements with this card. You need to make sure you've moved left almost to the centre after the fourth wave; not doing this is what killed you. Aside from that, make sure to keep an eye out for the bullets trailing off to the sides of the main streams of bullets, but to be honest there's not much more advice I can give other than that it's partly random dodging. =x
5. lol Q.E.D.
Anyway, here's a Catadioptric timeout (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5876) to demonstrate the way you should be moving all the time with this card. Ignore all the loldeaths, I'm still kind of rusty from my break.
EDIT: And of course, after writing that I will not get off your back until you manage this. :V
-
Did some MoF Lunatic practice runs because I just wanted to listen to some music. But ...
- Stage 1 : 1 death. Wasn't paying enough attention to my hitbox.
- Stage 2 : 3 deaths. Fairly smooth. Lady Ohgane burned my eyes though.
- Stage 3 : 7 deaths. Trauma in Glimmering Depths.
- Stage 4 : 5 deaths. I hesitated to bomb during the stage portion. At least I found out how to get past the orb spam after the wave of crows.
- Stage 5 : 4 deaths. Survived mid-boss opener (YAY) and captured her last spell.
- Stage 6 : 7 deaths. Thanks to Yamato Torus and my ramming into bullets. Beaten VoWG with ONE death and one bomb, History is 0/11.
I feel like uploading this on 'Tube but ... People are surely going to laugh.

*does a little dance instead*
-
Progress with Hourai Elixer Lunatic no focus constant shooting Youmu Solo - 6 seconds remaining. Pretty confident I can manage this. :V
Further progress: 2 seconds remaining. I actually made it through the big clusterfuck of circles and managed to die on an easier bit afterwards. Ah well.
-
Finally got my ReimuB clear of PCB Easy again. Which means it's right back to just needing SakuyaB.

S1: Sucks.
S2: Three bombs on the stage is a free pass, and there's more than enough power. Hina is tricky only for Old Lady Ohgane's Fire and Exiled Doll.
S3: Memorize where to go on Trauma, it's stupid and static.
S4: ...you mean the streaming part...?
S5: Another stage completely cheeseable with...yeah, three bombs or so. Nice capping the midboss opener, though, I hate that attack.
S6: now time it out
-
Do your best to dump her and never touch her again.....I've had the same view too, but once I've started using ReimuB, I wouldn't touch SakuyaA again.
That's what you people told me about Marisa A compared to my normal Marisa B.
To this day I still prefer to laz0r my way through any game that has Marisa with lasers, even when I've also spent a decent amount of time with christmas tree Marisa. =V

1. Far as I can see, you're reading the waves of the death fairy wrong. You could have cleared that last wave with ease, but you for some reason dodged in the other direction which got you a blue wall in the face. :V

Yes, I got unlucky. "luck" being the operative word. I'm not complaining that the stage is more random than the average extra stage, but when you have a 10 minute stage being thrown hard waves like that at the end of a stage full of places to screw up, preceding the actual boss, just tries my patience like you wouldn't believe.
...So after the fourth wave is fired, move from the right? Okay, I'll try to remember this.
I usually handle Philosopher's Stone much better. I was ready to restart and was surprised when I captured it.
And yes, I suck at Scarlety, I know. -_- Hardest death fairy IMO.
That's what you people told me about Marisa A compared to my normal Marisa B.

Master Spark is a crutch. Once you get good enough to beat every spell card with only one bomb, you'll realize Marisa B has nothing over Marisa A. This is coming from someone who had their first lunatic 1cc with Marisa B.
-
That.
Do your best to dump her and never touch her again.....I've had the same view too, but once I've started using ReimuB, I wouldn't touch SakuyaA again.
Its because ReimuB is absolutely awesome. SakuyaA is just a broken character with a crapload of bombs.
*Might be important to note that PCB, unlike IN, actually have decent alternatives to the "broken" character.
-
Master Spark is a crutch.
Master Spark?
I use laser Marisa in MoF and laser Marisa in SA (Marisa/Alice, though that version doesn't pierce). Neither of those have the Spark.
I don't use the shot type for the bomb, I use it for the lasers.
*Might be important to note that PCB, unlike IN, actually have decent alternatives to the "broken" character.
EDIT: Bah, I have a better idea...

After giving Hourai Elixer a rest, I decided to play some EoSD, and, err, EoSD Extra No Focus No Bombs clear (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5883). Finished with a spare life; I died to Silent Selene, the bookspam and Q.E.D., so Q.E.D. aside, that was a perfect no focus Flandre battle. Possible future goal? :V

Go for a true perfect EoSD Extra no focus~ Then once you do that, add pacifist in :P
-
So I went and tried Flandre. I cleared her, for only my third time. I think I captured Silent Selene, Philosopher's Stone (LOLSCREWINGUPROYALFLARE), and Flandre's first four. I almost ran the maze, for once, but screwed it up as usual. Ended up clearing 0/2.
-
I've been trying to capture Hourai Elixir (just Normal because I suck) for about a week now, with no luck. After about 15 attempts today I gave up, then just for the heck of it I tried it on hard. After two stupid deaths during the first wave because I wasn't paying attention... I captured it on the next try, complete with my heart beating unnaturally fast and being unable to type for five minutes afterward because of my hands shaking. Apparently I do better on higher difficulties.

Sakuya A is hardly the best shot type. To show you why, try doing a no bombs run with her. When you don't have something like 40 "get out of pattern free" cards, you see that she's actually quite mediocre.
Well, yeah. The 40 "get out of pattern free" cards would be the attraction.
And I breaking that habit. I 1cced Hard with a different character. I'm just wondering how much better I have to become at the game before I see why it's worthwhile.
-
SakuyaA is a pretty terrible shottype!
She has her homing, and...what else? Her attacks are the second-weakest in the game and her Cherry rate is the worst, IIRC. Then there's the usual Sakuya difficulties like highspeed focus and the fact that she has to fight Merlin, although that also applies to SakuyaB who is absolutely broken, so...
Not sure about her bombs since I never use her anymore, but as I recall they're fairly powerful. But other than that, I've never seen her as much more than Homing Reimu-lite :V
and yet i use sakuyab
-
although that also applies to SakuyaB who is absolutely broken
wait, what?
ReimuB and MarisA are both more powerful, and SakuyaB's bomb is for scoring, not free pattern bypasses. How is she broken?
-
and the fact that she has to fight Merlin
Who you fight is based on who you damage the most, it's not pre-determined by anything.
-
Who you fight is based on who you damage the most, it's not pre-determined by anything.
When you first encounter the Prismrivers you must face one of them before they all come together for their first spellcard, and its during that attack where who you shoot most decides who's personal spellcard you face.
During their opener before the card you're forced to face one based on who you're playing as (Reimu fights Lunasa, Marisa fights Lyrica, and Sakuya fights Merlin).
-
Ah, I never even noticed that. I haven't played PCB in quite a while...

http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5887
RAPTOR MOTHAFUCKA! (god I miss that video)
UFO stage 5 lunatic no deaths at long last. I'm confused though, because this run was terrible. I really don't know how I got away with this when it's a pretty subpar run. The only things I can think of are these three highlights on Syou:
1. A good example of my death bomb reflex is on Radiant Treasure Gun. I don't even consciously think to do it, something just told me "nope, not gonna make it."
2. That last dodge on her second non-spell... :O I don't know why I didn't bomb, but I'm glad I didn't.
3. I timed out Aura of Justice due to Syou's random movements being lol. Better to time it out than die or bomb though...
Thanks to these things, I had a bomb in stock for Vajra, and as you can see I REALLY cared about risking it. :V
-
Ah well. I am noticing that I'm preferring ReimuB for Extra, mainly because Ran is practically unbombable (and her patterns seem to either have Ran standing front-and-center, which benefits straight shooters, or have Ran below me, at which point Sakuya:A's homing is useless). Perhaps as I grow in skill and play more Lunatic, I will acquire the same preferences for the normal game.
Anyway, since this is the accomplishments thread, I got past Ultimate Buddhist for the first time. Extra is hard :(

THAT WAS PROBABLY THE LEAST FUN I WILL EVER HAVE PLAYING TOUHOU (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5888)
...unless I'm ever stupid enough to try capturing Hourai Jewel. Whatever.
Some ~250 tries (~228 Border Team, 20 Scarlet, 2 Youmu) later, I captured FREAKIN' SAIGYOUJI FLAWLESS NIRVANA on the second try with Youmu. Around 40 minutes. Around 75% of all deaths were on the first cycle.
SFN IS COMPLETE CRAP
-
Ran is practically unbombable
As a general rule, Extra bosses are unbombable, as well as Stage 6 bosses' final cards in the main game. In fact, Yukari's final spell goes as far as being super-immune to bombs, being the only card I can think of to freeze the spell timer during the bomb animation.

Could someone explain the Always Shooting thing for some things? Does that make it harder somehow with Youmu solo or is it just done just to do it?
Don't really have anything worthwhile but did this just now
Anyways, No Focus, Youmu Solo, Always Shooting, Fantasy Heaven
http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5892
GameFAQs and Youtube username there, so I use it for the replays I upload there.
-

Always Shooting + Final Optional Spell Cards (e.g. "Hourai Elixir") basically means that you obscure your vision with shot fading animations / Time Points. Youmu solo spouts a fountain of Time Points while shooting (unfocused), and an obscuring option and a high unfocus speed.
Going to see how many attempts it will take me to pull of what SP did ages ago (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5893).
At this rate, I'm going to have to guess in the thousands. It looks so much more manageable in the replay(s). As soon as the timer hits about 50, everything starts to overlap.
Wait... it... becomes easier past 40 seconds? D:
Hm. Guess I'll be studying the fine points of this overnight.
-
I don't get how people CAPTURE Genetics >_>"
Timing that thing out is easier.
-
I captured youmu's 2nd to last card... yes that's right I captured something of youmu! how awesome is that? and it was even hard difficulty!! But wait there is more... I also captured her last card! wait, what? Is that possible? Well yes sir it is.
And only afterwards I realised I had no bombs or lives left :V Now onto stage 6, wonder if I can 1cc this ._.
-
I don't get how people CAPTURE Genetics >_>"

You just need to figure out the opportunities to stay under her. Its no so bad once you figure it out. I'd recommend you watch replays to learn the correct path.
-
I don't get how people CAPTURE Genetics >_>"
Timing that thing out is easier.
You can stay under her for a while when she goes to the bottom right. You can stay under her even longer when she goes to the bottom right if you're using lolborderteam because you can just gap to the other side instead of having to leave early.
Also she aims her movements at you as indicated by the sound. My strategy (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5894) for this card doesn't involve using that to my advantage in any way, but it's certainly possible.
-
Last night, I timed out Pendulum Guard. Turns out it as its own cute timeout phase where she fires a steady stream of bubble bullets at you. Still was easy though.
Now the twist: I didn't mean to time it out. :V
-
I remember reaching BoLaD timeout once....with ReimuB. On accident. No challenges.
-
I think i'm having a change of heart about UFO... it not as bad as i have made it sound. I just think its too difficult. I really suck at bombing and because of how difficult the game is, it makes my resources rather scarce especially because i lose power to dying.
But if i just stay in Practice Start its suddenly a fun game. There is certain cards though...
Anyway, i have accomplished!!! Capture of Good Omen "Nirvana's Cloudy Way in Purple". Nice.
Also, capture of Light Magic "Magic Milky Way" and Great Magic "Devil's Recitation.
I have even been very close to a LFO capture.
I remember reaching BoLaD timeout once....with ReimuB. On accident. No challenges.
How? Didn't you have any power or something?
-
I did the same thing with Marisa B. If you aren't shotgunning and Yukari keeps moving out of your way and you can't center yourself thanks to the density of the bullets, it's quite possible.

Perfect Cherry Blossom 1CC!!!
I just got an urge to see how far i could get in PCB Lunatic. Apparently i could beat the game. Default lives and two lives to spare. Score is only 660M because of how the scoring system works and how i didn't really take many chances. A great deal of mistakes happened too.
Nevertheless, a clear is a clear. I'm very happy about this as it means i have now beaten 3 Lunatics. IN, MoF and now PCB. Which one should i do next?

On the subject of timing out Last Words, I only have 1, 2 if we count Fantasy Heaven as well, but that one is a timeout card anyway. And it's Emperor of the East, which is easy.
I've gotten close on Eirin's. Gotten to a little over 40 seconds left on Ancient Duper. Gotten to around 50 seconds left on Blind Nightbird(this would be easy if you could actually see, but so much walling).
SFN, I can't even get to under 70 seconds left.
My best run of Unseasonable Butterfly Storm (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5901). 62 seconds were left on the timer. It seems possible though.

Baity and I both already told you it's not static anyway. The initial wave isn't even the same every time.

Someone complained about being unable to do the card. I shortly found that video looking for strategies on the move (since I, myself was having problems with it) and posted it as a joke since I didn't yet know it was impossible to replicate...
-
It's not impossible to replicate. I've done it multiple times. You just have to be lucky, because it doesn't always work.
-
Being a complete beginner, I must say completing PCB Easy 1cc is my accomplishment so far. I'm ready to start on Normal and get completely overwhelmed.
-
S4: ...you mean the streaming part...?
... That one. I always get walled after going over the POC to collect the point items.
S6: now time it out
I haven't tried timing out ANYTHING before :V
But this will worth a try ...
-
Evil Eye Sigma is down!
Seriously, bombing in the middle of the last pattern is the most anticlimatic move ever (To whoever has seen it, you know what it means).

-

You mean because it bypasses the suicide attack? I bypassed it my first time too, but it's because I died as he was exploding...on my last life...when the point bonus you get from his defeat gave me an extra life, saving me from a game over.
I was not complaining. ;D Good job anyhow.
-
Seriously that stage is WHAT. One try I reach EES with no lives, the next I get 5.
-
Meh... I cleared IN extra with magic team, now I just need Scarlet to have cleared it with all teams. I don't understand why I messed up so much, then I finally get a good run and I practically ruin everything after that fujiwara shrine card (her 3rd?). Even messed up deathless xufus card >.<
-
HAHAHAHA YES FUCKING FINALLY HELL YEAH
...Ahem. :V On my 496th attempt... Hourai Elixir Lunatic cleared with Youmu Solo, No Focus, Constant Shooting (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5917).
Now, excuse me while I go and have a heart attack.
-
I managed to get to Scarlet Meister on EoSD Lunatic with default lives. I dunno... I perfected Cirno and Meiling and didn't die before Stage 4 at the books. And Stage 5 isn't all THAT difficult. Sakuya is tough but the bitch here seems to be Stage 4. I'm using ReimuB which means i get to face both Bury in Lake as well as Emerald Megalith and her bomb isn't all that powerful anyway.
Is it recommended to switch for homing Reimu instead?
Remilia is also a real bitch. I absolutely suck at Scarlet Gensokyo and Scarlet Meister is... well... Scarlet Meister, i guess. The rest of her stuff i can do pretty well though. Not always Vampire Illusion though...
-
Now on YouTube~ (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2KxtV4hq3s)
@Zengeku: I'd recommend not using ReimuA for a 1cc - I find it much easier to stick with Reimu/MarisaB. IIRC ReimuA has the next hardest Patchy after MarisaA, and you'll have a lot more trouble with all of the other bosses on top of everything else, especially when it comes to something like Scarlet Gensokyo. You want to whittle down its healthbar ASAP; I think I died twice to that on my 1cc. :V
-
Using a, er, "powerful" shot type in Phantasm Romance, I have beaten Shinki and seen "that boss no one talks about." (lolconcealedtheconclusionMarisaB :V)
But if Mima is extra 1, Shinki is extra 3, and Reimu is Extra 4, where is number 2?

now go 1cc ufo lunatic with marisa b
-
Sapz: I think you mixed up ReimuA and ReimuB. The difficulty order is:
MarisaA>>ReimuB>>>>>MarisaB>ReimuA
But ReimuA is pretty bad, so yeah.
Edit: Whoops, fixed.
-
Huh, really? I'll have to try that out tomorrow, then. To be honest I can't actually remember which cards ReimuA faces, I don't use that shot type very often. :V
-
Marisa B's are the easiest, what the hell are you talking aboot (and also Marisa A is on there twice). The only reason I can think of that people would possibly say Reimu A is easier than Marisa B is the lack of Emerald Megalith. Honestly people, it's not THAT hard of a card.
-
I've never really understood why Emerald Megalith was considered one of the harder Patchy cards. It seems a lot easier than, say, anything with the fire bullets, or Sylphae Horn/High Level, Green Storm, or, err, actually, most of her cards. :V I haven't reached Patchy at max rank many times (if ever, I can't really remember), but unless it completely ramps up in difficulty by a ridiculous amount I don't really understand why it's thought of as very difficult.
-
Actually, Emerald Megalith DOES become considerably harder at max rank than it is otherwise. It's just that it's not THAT much harder than the rest of the BS cards like Agni Radiance and Sylphae Horn High Level. Hell, I think it's easier than those since I've captured Emerald Megalith on max rank.
-
So having an english patch and actually knowing what stuff does makes SWR much much MUCH more playable! I finally beat it with Reisen (1 continue), almost entirely due to judicious abuse of 22C. Takes off close to half a lifebar if you get a direct hit.
Also, I FINALLY SMASHED THAT GODDAMN FLY! HA HA! Of course, there's at least one more, but that was just satisfying as hell.

Komachi is much scarier than anyone gives her credit for. >_>
-
Just realized I never beat UFO extra with Marisa B (after doing it with everyone else). Beat it first try with no lives left. :( I died twice on Undefined Darkness because I forgot how truly terrible Marisa B's bomb is and how your invincibility ends even before the bomb animation finishes.

Did it make the stage any easier? Or that still a huge pain, too?
-
The stage was actually a bit easier than it would be with Reimu A. The fact that I died to Guerilla Typhoon because the crappy bomb took out barely a third of the lifebar didn't make me happy though...
-
Komachi is much scarier than anyone gives her credit for. >_>
Komachi is absolutely terrifying, but I'd assume most people here play story mode, not match play or other people, so Shiki (or Reimu) seems more threatening due to the increase in the AI on the last stage.
That said, if I were to rate Komachi's terrifyingness in decent hands on a scale of 1 to 10, I'd give her a 14.
-
Being a complete beginner, I must say completing PCB Easy 1cc is my accomplishment so far.
That reminds me. I haven't done this yet, have I. :V
Despite having played Touhou for months. Derrrp.
-
I know it's not much, but after bad luck, a flu, and then so much more bad luck that I felt like quiting, it's real nice having a Normal 1cc up to Patchouli with ReimuB, especially since I entered Stage 4 with 0/1.
Proceeded to be destroyed by her and Sakuya, sure, but progress is progress. :V
Edit for slight clarification. [/i]
-
That said, if I were to rate Komachi's terrifyingness in decent hands on a scale of 1 to 10, I'd give her a 14.
Shiki's horrifying, too. I have four scenes left to clear in StB, and two of them are hers. Not looking forward to that one bit.
Yukari is a wuss by comparison. (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5925) I did this in a fraction of the time it took me to beat 10-5. Is it just me, or is StB Stage 10 much harder than Extra?
-
This is still my greatest accomplishment. (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=3740) I should try this on harder difficulties...I bet its much harder cause escape would be nigh impossible with more streams of bullets. I'll have to see hehe.
Edit:
AHAHHA Excellent! my greatest accomplishment just got even greater! (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5926) FUCK YEAH! managed to pull it off in the same night i randomly thought to try it!.
Normal = 156 tries
Hard = 155 tries
WIN~ even by a one friggin try!
-
IN extra beaten with all teams. First try with scarlet team lol >.< And I finally captured Hourai Doll, that just leaves imperishable shooting for all extra cards captured!
-
... Saigyouji Flawless Nirvana, 40 tries, first Last Word I've ever captured.
YEAAAAAH.
-
And my computer died. I can't get at my high scores, and I don't know if I'll be able to recover them. Should I move on to IN and hope for the best, or just start over?
-
No, what the hell?
I just captured "Parasol Star Memories" legitimately with MarisaB. In a normal run.
EDIT: :yawn: (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5934)
-
Nice, I did IN 1cc on Easy. I feel like I'm getting a feel for the game mechanics. :)
-
So I got to Shinki for my first time ever on Lunatic...and I got to her 2/1.
Game overed during Devil's Ownage.
This is truly notable because...hey, Baity?
I captured Cheeto Lasers.
FOR NO GOOD REASON WHATSOEVER.
I ran through at least four of them.
:D
-
Well here (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5937) you go.
PCB lunatic 1cc without using any bombs or breaking any borders on purpose.
Broke a few on accident though. Nothing to do about that.
Did it on my third attempt, wasn't terribly difficult seeing as PCB gives away free lives like candy on halloween.
Finished it with 2 extra lives to spare.
Also managed to perfect stage 5 while I was at it. :V
Almost caught Resurrection Butterfly as well.
Thinking about youtubing it up, but I'd rather have a better run to upload. :-\
-
Shiki's horrifying, too. I have four scenes left to clear in StB, and two of them are hers. Not looking forward to that one bit.
Oh, StB. I couldn't watch the replays so I assumed PoFV.
I'll find out how terrible they are after I finish two more scenes (probably two of Kaguya's).
-
Spent some time in "Stage Practice" in Mystic Square. Perfected Stages 1,2,3 and 4 on Hard mode. I did set up states at the bosses though as those were what i actually wanted to practice.
Then i went to Yumeko. Max rank is murder. In the end i finally managed to pull of a 1-death run of her as well as a capture of her first, second and third phase. Died to laser knifing. She is fun enough i guess even though her difficulty is too much for Hard mode.
Shinki has some decent attacks although her final spell (the laser one, not the piss-easy attack at the end) is absolutely ridiculous bullshit. Its the opposite of EX Alice's final attack. It rapes me with an outrageously difficult onslaught. Ex Alice just rapes me with her background. It would sure help if i could see something...
-
I just timed out Ghost Ship's Harbor on Hard!
...But not because I was trying o.o;
I've done the same to the train on Hard, actually @_@
-
I've done the same to the train on Hard, actually @_@
How do you unintentionally time that out? :V

How do you unintentionally time that out? :V
Marisa A + bad movement on Kogasa's part. If she keeps running to the opposite side from where you should be, it's not uncommon to hear the timer starting to go off before she goes down.
The train is actually really easy to survive on Hard unless you get nailed by an unseen bullet. You just have to know how to do it
-
Finally cleared Suwako after dying twice at the very last second!

Huh, I assumed she always randomly moved to be above you. I've never really watched her much though, now that I think about it.
And I know, I've got a 100% cap rate for the hard version :V
-

Nope. She generally stays around the center-ish, but if you luck is bad she'll go as far as to run into a corner ><

IN Hard 1cc!
Now off to SA and UFO.
Actually, I think I'll do all the Extra Stages, as I have never even touched one, and SA and UFO Hard make me want to cry since I can't do reasonably well in either.
Funny how I always thought IN was much harder than EoSD and PCB. But after I beat those two, suddenly IN feels the easiest one, after MoF
-
IN was my first and only Hard 1cc. I've 1cc'd both FinalA and FinalB on it.
Though I had gotten pretty close on MoF before that and gotten close on EoSD after that. Also gotten close enough on LLS Hard that I would 1cc it if I didn't find ways to die with bombs during the stage 6 portion or during a stage before that.
-
Resurrection Butterfly 50% capture o/
It actually didn't seem that hard. Perfect Cherry Blossom: Deep Sleep seems much more difficult.

Oh, and Baity, how'd that happen?

2 bombs on First SC.
1 death and 2 bombs on second non-spell.
2 deaths and 1 bomb on "Magic Butterfly".
Don't even ask how I managed to mess up "Magic Butterfly"; it just happened.

I rarely capture Magic Butterfly unless I'm at full power. There's a wave of it I have no idea how to dodge and unless I'm at full power I die to it every time.

That wave you're referring to is done by misdirecting the laser away from the center, and moving into the bottom-center.
-
Many thanks Baity.
-
Hmm ... so has someone timed out Magic Butterfly ?
-
I've done it once before; nothing too special. Had to learn quite a few more spots, but it definitely can be done.
Also, I tried to capture "LFO" unfocused. That was fun. Almost had it until the red rings made it almost impossible to move around unfocused with that much precision (note that my tactic in dealing with the waves is to move through the rings as quickly as you can, as opposed to waiting them out).
-
I just captured LFO on hard..... how the fuck did I do that?
-
I just captured LFO on hard..... how the fuck did I do that?
I've captured it 3 times in a row out of nowhere...
Of course, on my 1cc I've died on it 2 times and bombed 2 times and both of the deaths were with 2 bombs :V
-
I just perfected the Story of Eastern Wind's extra stage, the "TAKE IT EASY!" one.
This is the fanmade remake of SoEW BTW.
This wasn't hard at all.
I guess this is proof that SoEW's extra stage would probably be one of the easiest extra stages in the series if it wasn't for the extremely crappy design.
Oh and EX-Cirno is the greatest boss ever. :V
-
I guess this is proof that SoEW's extra stage would probably be one of the easiest extra stages in the series if it wasn't for the extremely crappy design.
Actually, the mess up one of the more annoying attacks, near the end. The bomb lines are supposed to be aimed at you (so you should learn2misdirect) but the fan remake just made them automatically misdirected, making it easier.
Also, the shot types seem to be pretty superior to what they were based on. Reimu always has homing, Sanae has hax shotgun damage and more effective spread then the original SoEW ReimuA, and Yuyuko is just haxed out (The game even gives Yuyuko a ton of extra bombs)'
Perfecting it is still a great job though.

You forgot Suika, who's shot is extremely powerful and can auto-collect at will. :V
Yeah, I noticed a lot of strange things that were different in this version.
Take it easy tank yukurri's first phase is completely aimed at you here, while in the original the shots were random. You can just stream everything and don't worry about anything here.
And adding a POC BREAKS the life system. You can gain like 10 extends in the point item portion of the stage alone.
-
Finally, oh god. (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5952)
Now one more, one more!
-
I just had a very good PCB Hard run going. Until i reached Yuyuko who pretty much wrecked it. I think i captured three of her cards but i lost the first one as well as Youmu's one. Those being deaths because i was by no means ready to bomb them, easy as they are.
Maybe i should have a word with Neo, being her "opposite-of-waifu" he should be able to teach her some manners. I don't like girls who mess up my run so badly!!! I got around 830M. I wanted the billion.
I've captured it 3 times in a row out of nowhere...
Of course, on my 1cc I've died on it 2 times and bombed 2 times and both of the deaths were with 2 bombs :V
It's because it turns really random if you die at it. I don't really like that at all. It becomes a total mess. Like "Mountain of Faith" - Easy on steroids... and unlike MoF, the waves come from below you too... nasty.
About said spellcard, i went for a UFO Hard run just to see if my initial 1cc was just a fluke. I managed to finish with three additional lives which compared to my initial run with 4 remaining lives isn't so bad. I even captured LFO in it which is nice. As well as Vajra and Demon of Clarification (or whatever Shou wanna call it.)
-
So I was so annoyed that I 1cc'd IN Hard yesterday but didn't save a replay that I had to do it again, and this time with a much better score, and I didnt die up to stage 4, and still managed to finish the game with 0 lives lol at least I faced every last spell.
http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5953

Uwabami Breakers Stage 3 - Perfect clear
No bombs, no deaths and killed with quite the speed imo. ( finally )
-
1cc'd LLS Hard earlier, but that really isn't an accomplishment.
I did make it to Marisa my first try on Lunatic though and nearly defeated her, this being on 1 credit of course. Doesn't seem too bad for a Lunatic either, but I need to practice more, plus I used homing Reimu to make the stages easier.
-
Finally.
(http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i293/Arcengal/UFOhard.jpg)
Finished 0/0. No highlights whatsoever besides a rageworthy death during the clearing of Ichirin's final spell. No other Touhou game on hard gave me nearly this much trouble.
Next up is SA Lunatic.
-
I didn't even know there was an Easy mode in LLS, so I went ahead and cleared Normal. I had to use continues, but it felt good to clear it after doing Easy on the others. :)
-
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRjQqPAYDoA
It's certainly not a very impressive no deaths run, but it's infinitely better than my lunatic 1cc video. I believe I cover everything in the description.

You didn't clear UFO Hard before now? How are you gonna manage SA Lunatic then?

This went pretty fast after figuring out the stage portion, because to be honest, the stage is harder than Yukari.
Also got over a billion points which is pretty nice.

Just captured Mugetu's final attack in a run. Failed it in the next attempt though. I've only made it to Gengetu's Master Spark part, but I'm getting better at it.
Do all of Gengetu's attacks have timeout phases? I was milking graze for points on the easy one where you stream a bit, then she shoots an attack like Elly where you want to move instead of stand still then she pulled a timeout phase, though nowhere near as bad as the final one, for that attack. Died before that though on the attack which was a rageworthy moment.
Just wondering if I should try to milk the Master Spark part for points as well.
Any extra lives after the 30,000,000 one?
-
Do all of Gengetu's attacks have timeout phases?
All of them have it, except for the second last phase, which acts more or less like a "bridge" into the final.
Mugetu gets them as well.
Any extra lives after the 30,000,000 one?
Nope.
Also, you should only need to graze the "streaming one" until you reach about 700 Graze if you're going for Max Graze. IIRC, that phase ends shortly after the Health meter drops into the purple.
-

I dunno, I always found Mugetu's final attack to be fairly easy. Her blue line attack kills me a ridiculous percentage of the time, for some reason, but that one not so much.
Any extra lives after the 30,000,000 one?
'Fraid not. Then again, LLS Extra is CRAZY generous with extra lives (SIX?!), even if you only get two bombs per life, so it's no surprise it's regarded as the easiest Extra.
EDIT: ninja Baitys have been sighted in the region, please take caution

Just cleared SA Hard with a million continues (stage 5 :V) for the sake of unlocking stages =P

...Holy damn, really? That's awesome.
/me plays LLS Extra
EDIT: Welp. Mugetu rape time is kind of hard. ...Actually, come to think of it, it had more than a passing resemblance to Mokou's final non-card, I think... hm.
Also, it took me until I got to Mugetu that I realised I was playing without using focus. I'm not sure if this is a good or bad thing. :V
-

Oh wow, hardest extra boss(es) to pacifist? (lol Gengetu Rape Time)
How's MS and SoEW in terms of timeout phases?
-
SoEW has none, and I'm fairly sure nobody has them in Mystic Square. I took the liberty of timing out EX Alice's last phase and there was nothing. It doesn't even get faster if you don't shoot her.
Also, I asked this a long time ago but I would pay someone if they could time pacifist Mugetu and Gengetu.
-
MS has nothing; it's all in LLS. Orange has an interesting one (doubles your score for Stage 1 if you do it right), Kurumi has nothing (but it gets dense quickly though; needs more analysis), and Elly has a pretty nice one. Haven't tested anything else yet (that is; Reimu, Marisa and Yuka), and I certainly plan to once I get back home.
Also, I asked this a long time ago but I would pay someone if they could time pacifist Mugetu and Gengetu.
Still working on it. I can survive around 4-5 of the timeout phases using all my resources at a time. Surviving without bomb spamming; that's a different story. I'll still give it more time (see above) though.
-
Also, I asked this a long time ago but I would pay someone if they could time pacifist Mugetu and Gengetu.
Didn't some crazy Japanese player ever do this?

Yuka's final phases are already like timeout phases. The only way they could be worse is rapewalls that would put Gengetu Rape Time to shame.
-

A quick search shows nothing out of the ordinary. The only video I could find is the one where the guy tried to timeout "GRT" but died / bombed a few times (as is the norm) which I'm quite sure that many of you have watched.
Then there are the standard Extra clears; most being Marisa with LAZORS.

Just got done with a Marisa with LAZORS clear. Had 1 life to spare also but could have been two if I hadn't messed up. Still have a lot of practice to do on the fights though to be better at them.
That makes a total of 6 Extra/Phantasm clears.

So I read this thread (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php?topic=3813.0) earlier today and I decided that I should play EoSD with the default 3 lives instead of the max 5 that I've been using for forever now to be more conservative with lives so that I might actually 1cc EoSD normal. I start up EoSD and set the lives to 3, and start playing.
And I 1cc it. What. (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5974)
Ended up with 0 lives and 0 bombs, but I 1cced it. :D
So now Extra Stage is unlocked and I fail miserably at it <3
(But I think I captured Philosopher's stone on my first try what?)

That leaves SA as the only Touhou game besides HRtP that I haven't 1cc'd on Normal.

I CAN TOTALLY DO THIS (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5977).
SanaeB might not be the best shot type for this, so I think I'll swap to ReimuB for a proper run
.

@Baity: No-Focus run eh??? Good luck. I wanna see that.;)
I find SA Lunatic everything except UFO Lunatic quite a bit easier than UFO Hard.
I don't understand you. I beat it in three tries. Then again, i did only spend 1 attempt on PCB Lunatic so maybe that's easier.
How about MS Hard/Lunatic or EosD Lunatic?

Right up until Stage 6, where you will die 6 times like I do.
Honestly speaking, if you're cautious enough, you should be able to 1cc it easily.
Got a replay?
Analyzing at the moment. Will probably take a while on it.

That's actually how I do it every time. I tried the circular method once, then researched the card and saw someone doing this. I never tried the circular method again (although now that I'm better, I might go back and try it someday for the lulz).

Ok. PCB Extra which I usually did with ReimuA could be worth a try with ReimuB.
1. try: Death to the waves right at the beginning, restart.
2. try: Death to some other pre-midboss stuff, restart.
3. try: Clear with two spare lives, barely failing to capture Descent of Izuna Gonge by only a sliver of health.
Well, that was faster than expected, maby I should try Phantas-
1. try: Clear with two spare lives.
:o

You inspired me to do a PCB extra run. To my surprise finished it on my first attempt (did clear it before tough). Increased my score by 600k (that's bassically nothing) cause I was so smart to die after Ran died (you go super slow mo after her death, and because of that + reimu's terrible focused speed I couldn't even dodge 1 ball lol)
-
Decided to move on. Beat IN Easy (both A and B) with Border Team. Gave Extra a shot just for kicks, made it all the way to Fujiwara "Flaw of Forgiving Shrine".
Does that mean I didn't get caved by EX-Keine?
-
A No Focus No Vertical capture of Kaguya's Half Past 2 !!
I'm so happy~
Also ... GOTTA TRY THIS SOME TIME. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9sTEHXL0-M&feature=related)
Now do it with Youmu solo, always shooting.
-
Is there anybody who did Tewi's lastword timeout at the bottom of the screen? I am curious.
-
I'm pretty sure you get walled. And if not, woooooow.
And you can also stay outside those red pebble markers? that would be even more insane. Nvm, I forgot about the lasers
-
1cc'd IN Easy. That's two 1cc's on Easy. It may be time for some Normal. :)
-
1cc of MoF easy, ReimuC.
At 5 AM.
YEUH
I also timeouted Miyasama Shrine Hunting Ritual, what :V
-
You didn't clear UFO Hard before now? How are you gonna manage SA Lunatic then?

:D
Complete Yukarin-bomb-fest towards the end but still a 1cc. Sorry if you expected style but I've been playing all weekend just for this moment.
I'll try to get a better clear at a later date, but for now I'm having my "1cc Jack and Coke" to celebrate.
-
Hey Baity! Guess what I'm NEVER TOUCHING AGAIN?

Freakin' Evil Eye Sigma is DOWN! ALL EXTRAS CLEARED (except PoFV, but who cares about that)!
-
On the subject of Story of Eastern Wind, is it like SoEW where I have to 1cc for every character to unlock Extra?
Or did they make it worse and I have to 1cc Hard, which would be a pain. I'd like to fight Ex Cirno.

1cc normal with any character to unlock Extra and the Yukkuri Extra.

Can somebody say "Perfect Stage 3" ending at the best spot ever?

EDIT: That Extend! saved me while also being so well-timed that I get a Bullet Clear Bonus.
As an aside, 'nut has the second lowest UFO Lunatic 1cc (http://score.royalflare.net/th12/levelchar12.html#L3C0) score in the world at this very moment (for the given Shot Type). The lowest belongs to yukarin (yes, the same one) which was done as a Low Score Run(?).
-
Didn't realize I had it unlocked for 2 of the characters.
Just tried it and got my ass kicked badly by Ex Cirno. This will be fun though.I was at 0/0 though going into her copy of Border of Wave and Particle and quickly died to it. I didn't capture anything either.
-
Baity, that's awesome. ;D I'm the worst-scoring lunatic player ever! \o/
-
Well, you're one of the worst out there. Your scoring skills (and knowledge while we're at it) are essentially non-existent :V
Stage 4 LLS is going to be fun~
Considering that I've memorized the Stages (mid-bosses are fair strict in their timing, but not too bad), it's all a matter of how well I fare against Reimu now. And I believe we both know how bad it can get. I think I'll leave it at that for today and do something that won't bring as much BAWWWWWWW into my poor fragile heart.

YES!!
Perfect S1 and S2, one bomb on Alice (she decided to be mean with the curvy red wave), three bombs and no deaths on S4 (a record), one bomb on Yuki and Mai and a death on Mai (also records). Advice from Baity re: stalling the midboss (brilliant) led to only two bombs on S5, then two deaths and six bombs on Yumeko, with one bomb lost on the first life when I got lolkilled by the knives on her first phase. Got to Shinki 4/0, fine until I forgot to move up on the wings = instadeath. Died to cheeto lasers, then IMMEDIATELY DIE AGAIN WITH FULL BOMBS. At this point, I clear Cheeto Lasers 1/2, and I am badly frightened for those three bombs. Two bombs gets me through the next phase, Shinki's Recitation 1/0. Die quickly and use all my bombs...just in time for the CRAZYINSANEWHAT part to start...and I run 0/0 through the crazy part of Shinki's Recitation for the first time on any difficulty and cap the last phase as well.
OH MAN
STILL TREMBLY
THAT'S THREE!

A half-hearted attempt at 1ccing UFO with Reimu A (I've been using Reimu B until now) to get a feel for advantages and disadvantages between the characters, which ends very anti-climactically. However, I manage to pull off a ridiculously lucky dodging spree before boss Ichirin. Watch it just for that.
(The replay desyncs for me if I start from Stage 3, so start from Stage 2 and fast-forward if necessary.)

That almost inspires me to get going. UFO Stage 2-3 Hard are harder than SA Stage 2-3 Lunatic.
SA Stage 5 Lunatic = UFO Stage 5 Hard. UFO Stage 6 Hard is harder than SA Lunatic Stage 6.
Maybe i could do that....

That was definitely an interesting replay to watch.
Congratulations man!
SA is such a hard game :s Stage 1 is overkill
-
I managed to solve Ichirin's opener safespot on lunatic.
Success rate for each wave is below 30% though, but practice makes perfect.
Hopefully this will help me on conquering billions in UFO.

Yes, but he/she died all the time to. In Stage 2 and 3 even. That shows that the game is indeed very generous with lives.

The Shiro's Ashes death almost made me restart. I took a second to chill after it.
And it's a he.
Edit: And I'll be trying for a clear that doesn't suck soon, taking a break for now. Anyone have the replay file of Kefit's perfect stage 5?

I know the safespot. But I have a 10% success per wave. I do recall seeing a MarisaB run where the player bombed every single wave and tried to use the spot at the same time though. Guess I should practice it some more as well.
And it's a he.
NO WAI THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE

Well, at least you aren't being secretive about it like a certain someone. ;D
Oh and yeah, that death was nasty but i'd say the death at Midboss Parsee was even more silly. :V

The path that always works in Practice mode *never* works in real life. :-\
-
7 Extra stages complete. Defeated Ex Alice just now. 202 point items, so if I had gotten 3 less I would have failed the stage. and this would have went into the rage thread instead.
That leaves just SoEW's extra from PC98 and well, I completely suck at it as I can only get to Evil Eye Sigma's second phase. Yukkuri stage really isn't good for practicing this either, but it allows me to get a better idea of how to deal with the later attacks once I get to them.
-
Not precisely an accomplishment, but... Went into MS Hard with the determination to just have fun, don't obsess over 1ccing. Made it to Yumeko's blue streaming hell phase before game overing even though I had a stupid death on stage 1. And guess what... I'M NOT RAGING! When I try to just have fun, regardless of 1cc or not, I don't suck at the game, AND I feel less upset afterward.
-
I just failed Shackles a Criminal Can't Remove, at long last! \o/ Also I discovered that most of the laser spam in stage 3 can be dodged just by standing still in the middle. :( Still failed though. :V
BTW, here's a philisophical question: If one perfects a stage but bombs due to that weird bug in SA in the results screen, is it still a perfect?
-

My pointers are Sanae's feet, positioned 1-3 pixel below Ichirin's armpit or exactly at Ichirin's wrist, depends on her mirrored/normal sprite.
11000 graze should boost score about 250 million ;D.

PCB perfect Extra clear!
First attempt.
This (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=6009) was a breeze after perfecting Phantasm. :P
-
My first 1cc! (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=6011) Watch and laugh.
-
Realised I had never tried UFO easy, so I did so.
No bombs, no deaths all the way through, finished with max of both. Missed two blue UFOs with loads of points though, took away from it a bit. :'(
Not so much an accomplishment as just a "I did this" post.
-
Saigyouji Flawless Nirvana (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=6017) captured without focusing and using solo Marisa.
This card is a lot of fun, I think I'll give it an attempt at timing it out. :V

If I hadn't made those two ridiculous mistakes, I would have beaten this NO DEATHS. D:

Successful timeout anybody? Video uploading as we speak.

o/
Now do stage 6 and my use for you your mission will be complete.

I still need to 1 bomb clear this first :<
I will get along to Stage 6 though. Also, new thread time.
