This is not a troll thread.
Does anyone have an idea why does my left hand(I'm left handed so it's my control hand) always get completely numb during IN stage 5?
I can play as much Cave as I want(3 hours of Dodonpachi without any breaks), try to force my way through UFO lunatic for 60+ continues and my left hand is completely fine.
But once I try IN, somewhere in st5 or early st6 my hand gets completely numb every single time.
Is it somehow more exhausting than other shmups for some reason?
-
I know what you mean, it happens with me on my right hand, my movement hand. I've noticed it before, but never really thought about it.
-
I find its because its where focus/shot is.
You can dodge all you like, But those buttons really end up being the ones that screw you over if you mess up on.
-
Obviously it's because of Reisen and her lunatic red (http://lunaticred.proboards.com/index.cgi) eyes.
Srsly, i'm not much help, since I use a controller and i've never noticed that hand numbing thing. :(
-
Now that I think about in, IN is mostly about micrododging. Might be because of that.
-
Cool down with some solo Youmu no-focus runs.
-
Never noticed anything like this :V

Personally I just find my blood pressure goes up in my fingers when I play touhou. Must be my body adapting to situations.

I'm kinda the opposite, my fingers go cold, to a point where I have to stop playing for a bit for them to warm up again.

Fap more, build up some strength. :V
Or use the Malice Cannon, keep the blood flowing. Might give you carpal tunnel though. :-\
-
I don't seem to have a problem with the shooters unless I've been playing for too long. Then I get cramps in my hands, and my fingers have a hard time straightening out. What's wierd is that whenever i play UNL for very long, my right hand suddenly spazzes out and starts pounding the directional arrow kets.
-
I don't go numb or ache when I play Touhou (or other shooters for that matter) for a long time. Not quite sure why
-
I trained myself to be ambidexterous (originally right-handed but i do most of the things now with my left hand) so i could just switch hands whenever my movement hand got tired
-
I have this with IN and SA too.
-
right now:
full EoSD lunatic run
10-15 st6 practice runs
2 MoF st6 practice runs
gunbird 2 1st loop
progear
and my hand is ok
time to try IN

You know what the people at nintendo say?
Rest your darn hands every 30 minutes.
And water.
:V
Well , that was helpful.

But IN is barely 30 minutes.
And yes, my hands hurt after that :V
-
My right wrist hurts a lot when I play any Touhou. That is because it tends to be the impact point for where I slam my fist down repeatedly in rage.
-
Yes, I get the same thing. I think because of the team thing and more micrododging (looking at you, Marisa), plus all the shotgun equals hot Z on Shift action.

Border team for me, probably because both focus and unfocus are equally useful+shiftpickup early on.
In other touhous you usually have almost no reasons to unfocus unless you are macrododging or POCing.
And did I say that I use shift on my left hand along with movement? :V
-
Ah, I meant Marisa the Stage 4 boss, not Marisa of Magic Team, when it comes to micrododging.
