I’ll try to remember this next time I see the room as the forgotten (I’m gonna forget this information)

your forgotten gameplay makes me wanna cry sometimes

I just do the bare minimum to get the post it note done I’ll improve with him on my second dead god surely

@@helloimbo I believe in you please keep on posting I love your personality

Wait how’d I mess this up I’m so embarrassed 😭 I’m on the road rn but I’ll fix it ASAP I’m sorry Not entirely sure what caused me to put almond milk after editing the video but my only guess is that I was watching a friend play a run with it and it just slipped into my thumbnail and title instead

@helloimbo cool video anyways

Thanks! I actually didn’t know that, it could come in handy

Without a sweat?????? I’m cooked 😭 I’ve been trying the TH15 extra stage recently and keep dying around the 3rd or 4th spellcard (whichever one Junko comes in at) and it took me 500 or so retries to beat point device on Reisen

@helloimbo that's actually really good you manage to reach extra boss in LOLK but if you can only do it by spamming bomb (with reisen ik you pick her don't lie) you shouldn't really bother doing SA soon it's just a pain, well LOLK is really generous with resources so you'll get plentiful of life in extra so even if people says LOLK is the hardest touhou in the series because (Clownpiece, Junko,etc) but it's really easy because they gave us op character like reisen and well 200 grace = 1 life piece really throwing the difficulty out of the window, but SA ohh man that game was brutal it gave us the most mediocre bomb and VERY poor bomb management which make us weaker and very bad to deal with bosses Sorry for the long eSAy I hope I don't ruin your touhou experience because well it's Clownpiece job

@ yeah I used Reisen and I have Marisa onto the extra as well. My Marisa point device run took like 1500 tries but that was nearly a year ago I’ve thought about using Marisa until I can get to the boss with my eyes closed because that would raise the chance of victory if I could get there as Reisen with all bombs and life pieces The Junko micrododging attack is a bomb sink with the bombed Reisen hitbox though

I’m currently trying to do Touhou 15’s extra. It’s cooked. I’ve been streaming it here and on Twitch if you want to watch the struggles If I ever do a legacy 1cc I’m playing Reisen and no one can stop me Tbh I found TH10 to be easier but I did 1cc 14 in way less hours so maybe I’m wrong

@@helloimbo no shame in using Reisen, the game is hard even with the shields. good luck!

Thanks! I plan to attempt TH15’s extra pretty soon because I made the mistake of putting it in the poll. Even if I did a stream marathon to beat it I might run out of time. I’ve never completed an extra either so that will be fun 😅

I have on point device The Clownpiece death loop still haunts me

@ how about legacy mode?

@ I haven’t touched it because I’m scared of it

@@helloimbo well 11 and 12 also pretty good to try if 15 is too hard for you

Yeah it’s the focus and unfocus thing right? I don’t really use it but I’m sure it passively helped me as I was navigating

@helloimbo yup, there's also the gohei dupe, where you can duplicate the gohei to get two goheis and even three at once on the screen. It's much harder to execute tho

Thanks! The brute force strat is the move fr

Nvm at the end hes actually using bombs,proud of you

Yeah it’s one of my biggest issues and I partially blame Touhou 10 (my first touhou) for reinforcing the bad habit with its unique bomb system

The authentic Touhou experience

She must be insane on hard and lunatic or something

⁠@@helloimbomy clear rate on her first midboss card used to be 95/1034. i see her in my fucking nightmares

SO FUCKING TRUE LIKE WTF IS THAT SPELLCARD

Thanks! I’m not entirely sure what determines the value in a POC, but I guess I came into it just expecting the power drops to have more value towards the bonus than the normal ones. After looking it up all I can find is that you need >20 items to get a bonus so I’m probably wrong in that assumption I’ve always felt that the idea of playing consistently (and improving in general) is not really that your highs increase more, but that your lows get better and better, meaning that your worst day now might be your average day weeks ago. Once you improve your low end, the high end raises on its own. It’s not about being better everyday but averaging better every week or month. It’s like how a pro’s bad might be an amateur’s perfect. Also I’m sure the fact I was in a call with friends the day I played really bad didn’t help towards my performance lmao Kanako’s final spellcard always has my heart racing with how long that one lasts. My TH10 1cc was by the skin of my teeth because of it. It wasn’t as earned as this one but it sure had me thrilled to eek out a win The direction changing never felt super difficult as long as I hugged the bottom but the left and right one is definitely worse because it’s harder to visualize the stage as “flipped” whereas the up/down one literally puts you facing down from the top I agree about the Shinmy spell-the hardest Touhou challenge might be to capture that I swear

Thanks!

Thanks! Yeah it’s like trying to learn a language by cramming every month, sure you might retain some skill but most of it will be gone by the next time. I mean I 1cced TH10 like a year ago and while I was better here than I was then it still took a lot to get decent again. I kind of like losing some skill and Re challenging myself for like a week or two when I start the next game though. If I find the next game I choose to be easier because I move to it quicker I might give hard a shot

If you want a game to beat TH10 at least let’s you restart at the stage infinitely. You will have to learn more attacks because you only get the lives provided and can’t just continue right where you died but atleast you don’t have to replay the whole game. If you do LoLK on Pointdevice just don’t play Reisen because her bomb sucks for really hard spellcards since you still have to survive them. I’ve also heard Reisen is the best on Legacy mode if you do that instead though. Whatever you pick, just stick to it and you’ll get it eventually. Ngl I recorded myself in the first place so I could have the motivation to boot it up everyday and do it

Btw I’m biased because those are the other two I’ve played so other people might say something like TH7, 8 or maybe 13 (I think) would be best because TH10 is not the easiest and we all know how TH15 is

Now 63

Thanks! Unconnected Marketeers has always been intriguing to me because of the roguelike elements. To me it seems like the most fundamentally different gimmick of all the games

Thanks! I’ve actually done TH15 on Pointdevice as Marisa and 1CCed TH10 over a year ago now, but that’s all I’ve done. It was a while ago though, so I sort of lost all my skill (my 1cc footage was used in the background footage, and you can see how close even that was). And yeah, I don’t really practice stages because I just try to brute force them lmao. It’s probably one of my many touhou downfalls along with the inability to bomb properly that starting with TH10 brings me

I think eventually I plan to play every Windows mainline game for sure

Absolutely agree with HSoB, Infinite Blade Pavillion is also great. Only semi agree on 16 though, the backgrounds make everything weird. I'd say 6, 7, 8 and 10 are beginner friendly, 13 is good for resource management, 12 and 14 teach you to move outside of your comfort zone movement wise (12 also punches you in the face while doing so but I digress), and 15 can be used to perfect capture skills with pointdevice mode.11 doesn't fit much of a niche for me, but it's pretty hard and fun. Haven't played enough of 17 and 18 or the VS shooters to have an opinion.

I will say that TH15 on point device makes you feel like you’re trapped in an eternal loop of pain and suffering at some points (also the stage 6 theme is ethereal) I also like TH10’s continue system for practice reasons, it makes it easier to brute force a standard win imo

I’m addicted to chasing the bonus so bottom camping is foreign to me on this game except for Seija’s control flipping spell cards

Bottom camping is a bad beginner habit

@@WildMatsu its still nice to play it safe, i understand on some cards you want space to move down but he was pushing up for no reason in some non-spells ;-; (like nonspell 2)

@@WildMatsu Bottom is generally your best bet to dodge unknown patterns.

I’d need a week or two of playing 24/7 for that

speaking from experience, even i havent beat it despite playing for 3 years (tbh after a year i stopped playing daily) it also helps to look at clears to copy tricks and memorize patterns

​@@helloimbo Step 1: find a touhou shmup community Step 2: skyrocket in skill Speaking from MY experience, shouldn't take that long If you're genuinely interested in touhou and can put in like 1-2 hours a day it'll come in like a few months 💤💤💤💤

Just use Marisa B and the lunatic clear is yours

UFO on Lunatic sounds like hell because I’ve heard people didn’t really like the gimmick of it

​@@helloimbopeople call it the hardest mainline windows touhou game to lunatic 1cc ever (mainline means not spinoff and windows is anything that isnt pc98) so its a flex

@@helloimbo UFO is also a very difficult game.

Did you 1cc? I once got 100M points from one blue UFO.

@@IvanBaAl961 well thats how you beat rensenware, beat it with SanaeB with about 5 lives left over (lmao)

Tbh I like being able to focus mostly on dodging but maybe I should be using a focused fire shot. I don’t think I’ve even beat a game at all without homing though (except point device on LoLK)

it doesnt really apply to ddc reimu shot type

Stages are much easier with homing shot. It may worth more than damage overall. Besides, "Fantasy Seal" is a great and reliable bomb. You are able to freely move and shoot while invincible. And it lasts long enough.

@@IvanBaAl961 this homing shots bomb has reimu wack the enemie

for some of the games, Characters like reimu and Sanae are way better for routing stages, try playing Marisa on touhou 18 or 15 and you'll find yourself being overwhelmed by enemies

Yeah I saw that’s some people really like the gimmick and I always found it rather difficult to deal with so my strategy was probably just bad. Once you learn to just bomb more it get’s a lot easier though. Touhou 10 teaching me to limit bomb usage was no benefit for me on that front. I think if I keep playing more I might go in order from 6 (I’ve played 10,14, and 15 just because I could buy them on steam), but it might be worth it to play 9 and then go in order just for the practice

I almost always go Angel deals but maybe I need to start doing this instead
