This little n00bie went to play UFO.
This little n00bie faced Kogasa.
This little n00bie went "OMFG THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE EASY MODE?!"
...all the way to the 11th Continue Screen.
Perhaps post your first encounters and losses?

Hi, Lunasa.
*BOOM*
Bye, Lunasa.
-
I figured out how to focus before figuring out how to shoot
timed out Wriggle
-
Actually, having heard nothing but notorious reputations general populace spread about, I expected much worse when I picked "Easy". Case of high expectations, I guess.
That doesn't change the fact that STAGE 4 is Evil though. Ate through all my continues. :/
(is it only me or do you seem to have some sort of beginner's luck first time you play the level, only to fail miserably what you somehow beat before?)
-
PCB Demo, Easy mode.
I lost to Alice. :<
A lot has changed. :>
-
I remember having great trouble with SA Stage 3 on Normal when I was new.
I have since perfected the stage on Lunatic.
-
The entire game of SA was a bitch when I first played it.
After I cleared MoF on normal, I went on to play SA.
Oh boy, that was a big slap in the face.
-
Oh god Hiziri on Normal.
Now I've perfected the fight and can consistently capture Flying freaking Fantastica.
-
My first EoSD attempt was on Normal
Stage 1: Hey, this isn't that bad
Stage 2: Okay, I died there
Stage 3: ...yeah, this is getting a little harder
Patchy: WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME!?!?!
-
"OH MY GOOOD I'M PLAYING TOUHOU"
"WHAT THE HELL I'M LOSING MY HP WHEN THOSE BULLETS TOUCH MY CHARACTER'S SPRITE"
*Dies on Icicle Fall*
-
First time playing a danmaku shooter ever.
EoSD easy mode.
Died before I even saw midboss Rumia.
BV
-
MUST. CONCENTRATE. SO. HARD. FUCK YOU. RUMIA!
-
EoSD Easy, game over on Perfect Freeze.
-
This little n00bie played her 1st touhou on Hard
-
oh haha they're little doll fairies pfffft oh look wow a little girl I thought this game was hard BYAKUREN H. HIJIRI SO MANY BULLETS
I got to stage three on my first time and Meiling guarded the gate rather well I must say
-
This little newbie played EoSD and used all her continues by stage 4 ON EASY
Now she does IN Hard.

This shows how I felt about Kogasa...but it was countered by the time I finally beat Kogasa..and was then brofisted to death on Icirin's midboss card.
Went to try other Touhou games after that.
And still have trouble on Kogasa sometimes.
-
First try? PCB Normal.
*kills Alice*
Sophie: Well, this isn't as crazy as advertised.
*STAGE 4*
Sophie: SON OF A-
*dies like a punk before even reaching the Prismrivers*
-
UFO is only my second Touhou game played, first being SA.
I only got to reach Satori on Easy and Parsee/Yuugi (depends on luck) on Normal.
...My gosh, Alice's spellcards... e___e
-
This derpface could not figure out how to capture Icicle Fall on Normal until a month after he started playing.
Also, this derpface still refuses to bomb cards because he believes that there is still a small chance of capturing them, which usually results in a failed 1CC.

Hi, my name is Ethlin K. and I wish to try Highly Responsive to Prayers.
2004 Nov
oh my god how the hell do i win this what is that ball why is it killing me ;____;
2005
yay i 1cc'd lunatic somehow
-
I started with MoF easy and luckily managed to beat stage 4 without focusing because I didnt know what it was or how to use it.
1 and a half years later I'm able to 1cc the windows games on normal.
-
First encounter with Touhou ended with me ragequitting to PADs on Eeji Modo.
Fast forward about a decade and I can 1CC UFO Easy and almost 1CC Normal. Just a bit more practice...
-
I think I game overed to Easy Rumia on my first playthrough of EoSD.
...
What? I didn't have any shmup experience before Touhou. (And I still haven't played any other shmups, either >_>)
-
Well, Patchouli was pretty tough, but I guess I can still live through thi- OH GOSH HI SAKUYA *Kyuuun* continue, y/n? N forever ;_;
-
"where's she?"
"oh wait, ther- FUCK"
*pichu~n"
(Referring to chen's and youmu's StB spellcards)
happened multiple times to me T.T
-
First time playing a danmaku shooter ever.

First death? not a game over death?
I mean can't you get to modboss rumia even if you push absolutely nothing? *looks*
update: Yeah, you can get to midboss rumia without pushing a single button without using a continue, you die twice though.
Anyway I haven't progressed nearly as significantly. I don't remember my very first game that well, I know it was EoSD normal. I think I game overed on stage 4. My first death I DO remember. Cirno's opener.. I wasn't really expecting a fast moving shotgun.
-
November 30 2007, I played the MoF demo on easy mode, unknowingly at 30 FPS (old old computer >_>). I think I 1cc'd. Looking at videos of EoSD and noticing the lower bullet density, I was like "wow, this looks like it may be almost too easy."
December 10, I got EoSD and skipped easy and went straight to normal, me thinking that 1ccing the MoF demo on hard (at 30 FPS mind you) would give me an edge. Game over on Cirno.
Good times~
-
First try was EoSD hard, I recall getting up to stage 3 before game overing.
-

Patchy: WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME!?!?!
I still feel lthat way about Patchy, I loathe her, specifically her nonspell card laser thingys >.< Her spell cards are fine though >.>

howwww. High level wind horn sylphae is like Aya's timeout card, only the bullets curve at variable angles, iiick.
I find it harder than lunatic emerald megalith personally.
-
I haven't even captured that damn thing on Normal. Hard and Lunatic where it's MarisA only, only got close a few times on Lunatic.
Nondirectional Lasers is fine, but damn Marisa's in IN is hard.
When I was a newbie, I didn't know how to focus. I could get up to PCB Stage 4 Normal like that.

I hate that card too, I always lose about 3 bombs and occasionally a life >.<
-
First encounter of Touhou all time?
Hi Wriggle!
*Spell practise, Lunatic*
*Screen already covered in bullets*
Oh shi- what is this game!?
-
Oh shi- what is this game!?
think there is a small handful of people who didn't say that their first encounter, and possibly only becauses they have seen similar games. I remember a teacher showed me a video of IN and my jaw dropped, though we were looking at the programming aspect >.> still, it was awesome
-
I don't remember doing anything particularly stupid when I was new, which is kind of a shame - I had already played a few danmaku shooters before, so I knew what to expect. I think the worst thing is dying to a pattern because it was so pretty I forgot to dodge (which still happens occasionally). I do know someone who beat IN normal without knowing there was a focus button, though.

i used to wonder how someone could do that, then i finally got to yuyuko on PCB....dang it was pretty, but i was up to my third continue after done with her, and i only had one after youmu TT.TT
-
This lil noobeh chooses to play Lunatic.
This lil noobeh reaches Letty.
This lil noobeh falls back to Easy.
Since then, the lil noobeh has grown up to 1cc most of the Windows games on Normal, and some on Hard.
-
When I was trying to 1cc EoSD hard, I figured that it would be easier to skip hard and go straight to lunatic seeing as more points = more extra lives.
-
My very first time playing Touhou. IN on Lunatic. (For the lulz ^^)
After 5 seconds, I was like: "Wait, WHAT?"
I got a Game Over at Stage 1 mid-boss. (I had 3 lives, btw)
So, yeah... xD
Even today, I still have some little problems on Normal Mode...

You have an awesome teacher.
