It's non-essential. You're playing these games for the gameplay elements.

Perfect Cherry Blossom or Imperishable Night. I prefer Perfect Cherry Blossom because the artwork is better and the music is pretty kick ass.

This thread is actually a good sign. It means that the flood of newfags generated by the Touhou anime actually intend to play the games significantly rather than bolster than already too-large ranks of secondary fans who can't beat them on EASY MODO.

He already has a "touhou folder" and has yet to play anything / even not know who Cirno is somehow. Just as big of a fag.

>> No.1857852

Doesn't really matter, as long as you start with something from the PC era.
Also, never go Easy Mode. Ever. It softens you.

>> No.1857855

>>1857818
hm, never noticed that before but you might be right. Now maybe this will get ZUN's ass in gear to make his loyal, yet retarded, subjects happy with a new game. It would be good timing to draw all the people who watched the anime but never played a game before.

OP here: I upload a lot of pictures from Pixiv to danbooru, so occasionally I upload Touhou pics from pixiv to danbooru. But for the life of me I can't remember all their names off the top of my head.

Thanks to all the other guys who answered my question and thanks to the guy who posted the link.

You only need to remember the important ones and that varies hugely from person to person

EOSD should be the first game you play

It will give you an appeciation of the changes that PCB and IN made

I'd say Imperishable Night, if you don't want to have to configure your computer for Japanese non-Unicode programs (since it's easiest, though I suggest you be a man and at least play on Normal mode). Oh, and since there's a damn good chance you can't read a lick of Moonspeak, English patch at:

EoSD, definitely. After you've played EoSD to death, play PCB.

If you start with PCB, you'll never be able to play EoSD well.

At this point for the people have been playing these from the start needed to know moonlanguage is almost unnecessary. Though it's kinda odd, with the popularity you'd think all the games would have a eng patch.

Everything's translated, the lack of a patch is because the guy who used to do the hacking stopped doing it and 4chan is a bunch of lazy incompetent NEETs who can't make a patch even if all the translation has already been done for them.

Yeah I know all the script is there in eng but half the time you're reading after the fact. Eng patches are just nice but not necessary by any means.
