Touhou 13???????????

ナイスボディ

Aren't the demos usually released at Reitaisai?

>>3490690
I thought the demos for the danmaku games usually came out at the winter comiket, and then the final versions at the summer comiket. SWR's demo might have been shown at a Reitaisai.

>>3490666
>So since ZUN forgot to *sign up for* C77

give him a year jesus christ

We just got UFO and a fighting game a few months ago. ZUN needs to recharge his silly hat generator.

Even if he forgot, they would definitley leave a spot for him. Comiket almost has a whole wing for Touhou.

>>3490745
I wonder for how long. Touhou Fans are an unruly Bunch.

>>3490736
Now that you mentions this. There are only 4 characters with silly hats (only danmaku) in the last three games.

>>3490745
Not almost, it DOES.

>>3490761
Maybe Zun got jealous and now wants to be the only one with a silly hat.

>>3490746
Maybe until he gets fed up of the secondaries and sets their booths on fire in a drunk rampage.
Y'know ZUN's tsundere for his fans.

>>3490839
OOOOH DELIVER US FROM THIS CURSE, ZUN-SAN!

Give him some time for a new Touhou game, his liver is just recovering from making the last one.

>>3490736
This. I'm getting tire of his MoF engine.

>>3490918
I miss the IN engine. Only partially because of easy bomb mechanics ;_;

>>3490932
Same here.

>>3490918
I personally couldn't be happier with the engine. It feels a lot better in contrast with the older ones. We just need another SDM-type cast.

Demos usually come up at March/May, while the games come in July/August. It's been like this for the last two, at least, and probably MoF as well.

I really want to see a Phantasmagoria game with MoF engine and a cast that includes the strong characters, not just the servants, plus the chars from MoF, SA and UFO.

Would be fucking awesome.
ZUN will handle releasing the demo somehow.

>>3490946
>We just need another SDM-type cast.
Seconded. He haven't topped that one yet.

>>3490983
I thought Eientei/IN's characters were pretty good...

>>3490960
If that happens I want Byakuren to be in as a selectable character. She is pretty much one of my favorite characters now.

>>3490995
It was! Gosh, personally I'd say that it's equal to the SDM cast, but there's little doubt that ZUN still made biggest success with his character designs from EoSDM. That's what I believe at least.

>>3490983
SDM has the best character. Not that the others are bad but SDM is just better.

>>3491037
>ZUN still made biggest success with his character designs from EoSDM

For the life of me I could barely remember the Aki Sisters at first, and most of the SA crew were a bit more forgettable. Fair enough, I guess.

Comiket is bad now because you American stand in line up to enter and are major eye sore. American are real loud and annoying. You make it hard to buy good doujin you buy them all before can Japanese buy.

>>3491063
>troll implying that there are enough Americans attending Comiket to actually make a serious impact on product availability

Did the founder of Comiket die a virgin?

Personally, I feel that the Touhou latest touhou themes are kind of weird. Nuclear Fusion? UFOs? I want my blend of eastern folklore and mythical creatures with silly hats.

People say that the EoSD characters are his best successes, but really that's just because it's the first windows game. If the UFO cast came out first, then we'd have dog-Murasa, *whatever Nue's theme is called* would get the "Ran Ran Ruuu!" parody, etc.

Personally, I love the IN cast.

>>3491121
That's naive thinking. Hell, if UFO or MoF was the first windows game in line, maybe the Touhou series wouldn't have took off like it did?

>>3491121
This. I think that Zun's later efforts (special award for Utsuho, Kogasa and Shou) better incorporate elements of the mythology which inspired the character than his earlier ones, which were rather subdued by comparison.

>>3491111
If anything it's a return to his desired goal of mixing east and west after a stretch of games that were Japanese as all fuck. It's weirder now, but take originality when you can get it.

>>3491121
even better, seal murasa

>>3491144
That's not true and you know it. The series took off because neckbeard otaku are obsessed with moe, so as long as it featured girls rather than spaceships, retards would gladly eat it up. Whether the final boss is wearing a concrete block on her foot instead of a bonnet is trivial by comparison.

>>3491158
she was already sealed once why seal her again

>>3491152
>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19vH7_aA1tg
Awesome.

TH11-12.3 are pretty much a new act in the series where everything is twice as weird and past events actually matter. If 13 is extremely normal and not caused by Byakuren's temple or something I'll be mad.

>>3491164
The series took off because they were great STGs first and foremost.

What, did you forget how ZUN's "girls" look like in the first place? I know we all have that image buried under piles of piles of fanart, but seriously.

>During the Heian period, beauty was what made one a "good" person, not graciousness or honesty.
Nue is a good girl!

>>3491191
Yeah. I like how the games' events link together slightly like that. In the end, it's all Kanako's fault.

>>3491152
Holy shit, what alternate ZUN timeline have you teleported me to?

>>3491206
Yeah, people talk about Yukari fooling around, but how many times has she caused anything? Once. Kanako has 4 and counting.

I would like to see ZUN changed all the bosses on Touhou 13 with giant robots with no human resemblance. Still, it is an official game with Reimu and Marisa as main characters.

>>3491221
What four?
MoF, SA, UFO, and ???

>>3491111

UFO as a whole was pretty much a homage to Space Invaders for its 30th university. If it wasn't for that I don't think the theme would resemble what it does, even if the mechanics were the same.

>>3491221
Yukari tried to take over the moon TWICE.

>>3491224
>Still, it is an official game with Reimu and Marisa as main characters

Then make them giant robot pilots, all Power Rangers- like, with giant danmaku fights and sparks everywhere and shit!!

>>3491236
Hisoutensoku was caused by Nitori's tiny robot casting shadows from the nuclear reactor core or something.

>>3491242
Oh right, SSiB. Ok two times in modern history.

>>3491221
>but how many times has she caused anything?

The genius of what she does is that no one notices her work.

I like how Gensokyo just has a nuclear reactor in a hollowed out mountain now. That was not something you would predict back in PCB times.

>>3491224
I wonder how would the fandom react to that.

wut

We should be hearing something within the next 3 months. I'm excited for a new "large cast" game like PoFV.

>>3491331
>>3491356
Looking for this?

>>3490734
look at that baka

I don't care what ZUN does next but it better include Hina.

Touhou 13 will be a RPG.

>>3490761
Byakuren's gradient hair is a silly hat.

>>3490666

The same way we get all the demos:
Reitaisai.

Silly.
