The Tsukumo sisters in DDC Extra. I also find Joururi World a blast to play, and the rest of the fight is pretty solid.

Normally I would said the 3 Mischievous Fairies for this question, but you know, leader!Luna. >.<

Three Fairies of course, the Lily/Daiyousei EX midboss is also cool, same with Benben/Recliner

There is nothing cooler than having to face 3 of the most important (religious) figures of Gensokyo in the same time.

Duh, Three Fairies of course. There's literally not a shadow of contest, All other dual/triple fights just plain suck in comparison.

Prismrivers aren't bad though. Dunno why my mind always think they suck until I sit down and think about them  ::)

Oh, I got a question.
What is your favorite jewel case cover? Mine is probably IN's. It's very serious and "cool" looking. I like the bright, soft color scheme of UFO's cover too.

DDC and TD's.

So much fun I've had with those at the firing range.  :D

MoF: The colors of Fall used in the cover look pretty impressive to me.
DDC: My dictionary lacks the fancy words needed to describe my thought about it in detail. Let's just go with "It simply looks beautiful".

Yes.

PCB has a beautiful case in my opinion.

I also seriously adore EoSD's.

Biased: SA (because it's SA) I also like the dark colors

Unbiased - Pretty fond of DDC. PCB is pretty cool as well and stands out from the rest.

Normal Clears: EoSD, PCB, IN, PoFV, MoF, SA, UFO, TD, DDC
Hard Clears: PoFV, SA, TD, DDC
Extra Clears: PoFV, MoF, SA, UFO, TD, DDC

Which game has your favorite selection of shot types?

I'm not sure if that's the best way to phrase it, but I'm referring to the entire range of shot types in a game-- don't pick a game just because you really like one shot type from it.

---

I'd go with either SA or DDC. While they're certainly not balanced, both games have some nice variety to their shot types, including some rather weird (and therefore memorable) abilities. For example, SA has ReimuA's gapping (and graze bomb), ReimuC's super-speed (though the aiming and bomb power are more relevant), MarisaA's bomb system and reversed focus/unfocus, and MarisaB's five-element selection; DDC has ReimuA's crazy gohei, SakuyaA's time slow, MarisaB's constant power items, and SakuyaB the weak high-scoring character. They also have rather distinct bombs that mostly have their own uses, particularly for scoring.

IN. It has got shot-types for people who ship Reimu x Yukari, Marisa x Alice, Remilia x Sakuya and Yuyuko x Youmu.

Simply superior to the other games.

SA is what I would call a harem Touhou.

Honestly...probably Ten Desires.  As much as I like the shots in DDC, it's really only ReimuA, ReimuB (on principle) and SakuyaA.  That's only 50%, since I don't really like either Marisa or SakuyaB.  Maaaaaaybe half points for Marisa, but it's still not that great of a shot for me.

Now, Ten Desires has Reimu (on principle, I like the homing+needles), Marisa (lasers don't pierce but that bomb-for-trance power), Sanae (...I got nothing) and Youmu, who gets extra bonus points for having a melee weapon in a danmaku game.  Overall probably 2/3 enjoyment ratio or something when DDC is 3/5ish.  IN would be better if Sakuya and Alice and Reimu weren't all awful.

I like DDC because it has several unique shot types, but I think PCB has the best shot types all around. I can play the game with any of the characters and still feel like it's a challenge without being crazy hard. SA comes in a close second, but Aya and Patchouli kind of ruin it for me.
My name is Tres. It sounds like "Tray". Tressert is "Tray-zurt"; like Tres dessert.
I've cleared every touhou game on Lunatic, and beaten every extra except SoEW.

You'll never guess what my choice is.

Really the more I play the game the more I discover new sides to the characters. Each one changes the atmosphere in a unique way. It's very exciting.

PoFV takes a somewhat distant second. I'd probably appreciate IN a lot too if had more experience with it.

I think PoDD has the most satisfying cast of playables by a significant margin. UFO is also very satisfying, and SA I guess even though I only play ReimuA

UFO. The shot types in general seem quite usable and good. I'm not really too familiar with all of the shot types in the games, though.

Re: Daily Touhou Best Topic Round 3 Part 1

UFO. The only character I don't like messing with in that game is Marisa and that's because I'm a cranky old man who finds the smallest little flaws to be deal breaking. Nothing makes you forget that you're playing with DFCs more than blue options that hides bullets. A stronger player who doesn't have his mind 80% occupied with other things may not have this problem so the UFO cast is really quite strong.

UFO also has a homing Reimu that doesn't suck and those are rare.

SA is what I would call a harem Touhou.

Probably PCB ; I enjoy playing nearly all of the shottypes (except SakuyaB).
DDC shot selection isn't bad actually, it's probably the only positive aspect of the game.

In general, probably PoDD.
For the classic type of bullet hells, I felt like TD had well designed shottypes.

Honorable mention: SoEW, just for giving Reimu an armada.

UFO. It has all what I asked for the Wind Priestess and the Shrine Maiden.
PCB is worth a special mention for being the only game that I'm bothered to clear every character's shot type.

PCB. Two different bombs per shottype FTW. You always have both a screen cleaner and a damage dealer, so every situation is covered if you need help. Also, all shottypes are good enough, none of them have more trouble than others, and focused/unfocused differences are nicely balanced. Oh, and it has my favourite shottype too - helicopter-style SakuyaB.
