Quwanti:
Neat! Curious to see what this additional content is.

SuperVehicle-001:

I'm so afraid of this.

I can't help but agree. This is a big change in the status quo, and I'm not sure I like it.

Hopefully everything turns out OK. I mean, they'll add extra content (which is very likely to come to PC too) and they might even fix the game's netcode (big if, but an if nonetheless), but I can't stop being nervous.

cuc:
Some choice dialogue from the stream:

--- Quote ---ZUN: "What to release at Reitaisai", that's a big deal to me too.
ZUN: Got to secure my childcare leave this year, that's what I've been thinking.
ZUN: I'm hard at work doing all sorts of preparations for Reitaisai.
Okonogi: First you say childcare leave, then you say you are hard at work. You are losing me.
--- End quote ---

As they kept talking about what Tasofro is developing, they seemed to be building up to something... Until ZUN broke out that they are porting ULiL with addtional content.

--- Quote ---ZUN: No voices. It would be a pity if we add voices.
Okonogi: Fully voiced by ZUN.
Unabara: During ULiL's development, "let ZUN-san do the system voices" is a topic that came up many times.

Okonogi: It would be great if you can do the recitation voice.
ZUN: [Mimicking an audio book voice] "... thus Marisa said."

ZUN: No release for Vita?
Unabara: We are not considering that right now.
--- End quote ---

"Letting ZUN voice all of Touhou" is not as odd an idea as you may think. It may not come through in English translations, but as a matter of fact, all Touhou games' interface messages, descriptions, narrations and manuals are written in ZUN's masculine voice. When you play a Touhou game, you are essentially listening to him narrating the story.

Spotty Len:
I wonder what it means for future official games.

Plubio:
Mmmmm. Mmmm.
ZUN please don't tease us this hard.

EDIT: unless he's talking about ULiL's port.
Seems unlikely at first glance tho.
