Deaths on Ran's last nonspell, Ran's 5th nonspell, Laser, bombs on every nonspell but the first two, 2 deaths from running into bullets on a Kokkuri-san's Contract sightread. I just get too nervous for this kind of thing.

I think the first time I faced that card, I did a LOT worse. D:

I was trying for a 1cc Lunatic MoF run. Got up to Aya without bombing or dying, then lost all my lives due to massive lag.

Had a similar ocurrence on PoFV Lunatic.

It was all good, until I got to stage 5... AND AVAST DECIDED TO UPDATE THAT DAMN MOMENT.

First time I actually have a decent shot at clearing EOSD extra, no lives but 3 bombs at the start of QED.

First bomb was a panic bomb, other two were legitimate bombs, get her really low, along with a probably attempt ending wave of bullets.

I'm already in panic, and all of a sudden she dies, except for some REALLY odd reason I feel compelled to press right and... yeah. Worst choke ever for me :<

Replay, in case someone feels better by watching my ridiculously bad run:

And yes, I'm TERRIBLE at tranberry crap and maze of love :\

Game over man, that blows. I get myself killed after a boss dies once in awhile, but thankfully it has never been when it would have been my first time ever clearing something.

today I did 1 try of 1cc hard on esod again. I managed to beat patchy without any deaths.. I mean stages 1-4 without deaths, but like you, I ran off and killed myself just as she died.. Ok I said to myself, I still got 7 lives and only 2 levels left, imma pwn this.

So I die on the first 2 fairies on stage 5.. I moved to the right as they finished shooting, but for some reason I still was killed midway thru the wave of bullet (I didn't move early either, wtf.. Then I died to the 3rd waves of fairies thinking I was invicible cuz I just spawned.. Though I wasn't, then I died to sakuya midboss on her first wave of attacks.. I just quit at that point wailing how I just ruined my best attempt yet.

I managed to game over with less than one damn millimetre of health left to "Descent of Izuma Gongen" on what should have my first PCB Extra clear. This after a full-bomb death at the last second of her survival card, when I stupidly refused to play it safe. $:-\$

(On a related note, Ran seems much easier than Mokou. Is this due to the existence of the phantasm stage, or does the second extra clear always feels like a cakewalk next to the first?)

Also, first time poster, so hello and thanks to everyone for the tips I got while lurking.

Kit Nezumi · « **Reply #367 on:** May 29, 2009, 07:15:49 PM »

The bomb button in EOSD is starting to make me rage. I can't count the amount of lives I've lost because I didn't fire a bomb even though I swear I jammed that button down.

EDIT: And then to drive my fatal incompetence home, I tap the bomb button at completely unnecessary times, firing an unneeded bomb.

I personally think that Ran is easier then Mokou, although opinions differ. However, I doubt the reason that Ran is easy is because Phantasm exists, seeing as some of Ran's cards are harder then their Yukari equivalents. Also, yeah, usually once you've done an Extra stage, you've gotten better, so the next should come more easily.

Desert · « **Reply #369 on:** May 30, 2009, 03:08:17 AM »

Resurrection Butterfly -30% Reflowering. One second left, right after I practically told myself that I had it. That was quickly followed by saving a replay appropriately titled "='(" which was followed by just closing the game, and turning off the compy. I blame myself for getting nervous during Youmu, which caused me to lose several lives.

Also, this isn't rage exactly, but I'm annoyed that everytime I hear "Satori Maiden ~ 3rd Eye" I get a quick flashback of Frantic Factory from DK64.

Ghaleon · « **Reply #370 on:** May 31, 2009, 01:37:25 AM »

AGHAGHAHAHG. So here I am trying the phantasm level on PCB. I get to the boss like 5 times in a row...with only 2 lives each time cuz I fubar up badly during the level (like 1 death on ran, 1 on turrets, and 1 on fairies after ran). but with just 2 lives I can get the boss down to the ran phaseish (3rd last right?). I say to myself. As soon as I can get to this boss without totally sucking on the level she's a goner. But wait, I have to take a 1 hour break to get some work done (funny how I take breaks from gaming to do work heh), come back to gaming and I can't even get to ran without a death or 2.. wahhh.. ARRRGH whyyyy.

Hum...I find Mokou to be the simplest Extra boss. I regularly manage to mangle perfectly simple runs of other ones, but I can just about always clear Mokou.

Just started playing PoFV and there have been PLENTY of rage moments, usually around me and the comp both being at one hit left and Lily decides to show up during THEIR cards and not mine EVERY SINGLE TIME.

SoEW Extra is just... horrible...
It is the only one extra I did not beat till now (not counting StB)...

Ah...
Today, at the boss battle:
"Oh shit, bullet spam. I... will... bomb... NOW!"
*press X* *get hit*

"HEY! I PRESSED X!"

It happened 3 damn times.

FFFFUuuuuuu

Every boss of stage 6, 7 and 8 of every level of PoFV is BS...
On Hard and Lunatic, I always die once at each one of these stages (if I die more, I don't continue, since don't left extra lives for Shiki).

nintendonut888 · « **Reply #375 on:** June 01, 2009, 02:04:27 AM »

That's because SoEW has no death bomb feature. In fact, I'd go so far as to say it has negative death bomb time. Maybe it's just me, but the bombs in that game seem delayed in their firing.

fallensoul · « **Reply #376 on:** June 01, 2009, 02:10:47 AM »

It is exactly what I'm talking about.

Many times I died cause I tried to bomb (before the bullet gets me) but get hit. D:

Drake · « **Reply #377 on:** June 01, 2009, 02:12:34 AM »

I'm pretty sure it's delayed even until EoSD. I've have quite a few times where I actively bomb to clear something and I get hit after I bomb.

nintendonut888 · « **Reply #378 on:** June 01, 2009, 02:14:48 AM »

Nah, from experience in LLS and MS I can definitely tell you that's not the case. I'd even go so far as to say the death bomb time in LLS/MS is more lenient than in any game not IN.

fallensoul · « **Reply #379 on:** June 01, 2009, 02:16:53 AM »

I am almost certain that LLS and MS have a deathbomb time.
Though, there was times I tried to bomb on MS, but actually bombed after the respawn. .-.

LHCling · « **Reply #380 on:** June 01, 2009, 02:27:37 AM »

LLS and MS have deathbomb windows. They are longer as well. I don't ~~see~~ feel any delay though.

The only other difference between LLS/MS bombing and the windows series is the lack of the (notable) death sound.

And for IN, the deathbomb window appears to be just as short (with the exception of the Border Team) if you die on a non-boss section (i.e. stage). Might be related to difficulty or something though. I can never seem to deathbomb on-stage in Hard / Lunatic / Extra when I'm not using any Border Team (solo or otherwise). Though, I really should be pre-bombing to save myself.

Hmm...a 1cc of PoFV. 1 death of Shikieiki. No deaths on Yuka. THREE DEATHS ON AYA.

Yyyyyeah...#$*%@&^ Aya.

This happens to EVERYONE I KNOW THAT HAS TRIED TO 1CC PCB. Seriously. Everyone has blown it during Resurrection Butterfly.

Yes I have.
Yes, she is.

But the game is really weird. Even on Normal, it takes roughly the equivalent of all bullets fired in 1915 to just hit Komachi three fricking times.

Komachi and Shikieiki are easier than stage 6, believe it or not -_-

I'm calling bull. My Lunatic PoFV goes like this:

Stage 1-5: no lives lost
Stage 6: 1 life lost here
Stage 7: 1-2 lives here...
Stage 8: 2-3...
Stage 9: Min. two or more continues worth of lives, IF I can beat it at all.

Also, watched an AI vs AI, Lunatic Siki match last night.
That was an entire country worth of bull!@$%.

Y'know, as much as I've been complaining about PoFV, the last round against S. Y. is absolutely epic. I think Fate of Sixty Years is my new favourite tune.

IYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Youmu-u-u-uuuuuuuuuuuu. ;_; Why do you do this? I finally capture Hell God Sword again, have that perfect battle going, and blow it at Components of Konpaku? I mean, it's not like Components of Konpaku is EASY, but Hell God Sword is my major obstacle here! This is why I'm not cut out for perfect runs...but for some reason I remain committed.

So I try again, four times later I capture HGS AGAIN (keep in mind this makes only 6 times, so it's unprecedented), and proceed to fail every other spell card.

;_; I NEED A HUG!

*Hugs Donut*

~~Now I expect one back.~~

LLS Extra and MS Extra stage portions are probably the most frustrating Extra stages in the entire series. Even more than SA. I can never seem to get through without needlessly wasting a bomb, or die in the case of LLS.

On average, I seem to reset a good 15-20 amount of times before I get to Mugetu / Alice with only wasting 1 bomb / life.

I even planned my Extend!'s out such that they come at the most convenient times for LLS.

...timing out Rings of Death for practice.

And that's another thing. IN's Extra stage portion is so difficult to score properly in. I reset on average about 10 times because the (death)bomb fails on the stage (non-Border Team).

stargroup · « **Reply #389 on:** June 03, 2009, 04:41:05 AM »

I could've captured VoWG on Lunatic but I accidentally bombed for no reason when there weren't any bullets even near me.

Sucks.
