Hey, /jp/.
Is is normal to rage while playing Mountain of Faith? I played a lot Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, Perfect Cherry Blossom and Imperishable Night, so I get used to that style. Mountain of Faith seems, I dunno, so strange. I could CC EoSD, but I can even die at the FIRST stage of MoF. That's shameful. Thoughts, please?

>> No.6578237

MoF's hitboxes are a little weird.

Ain't nothin to it but to practice, tighten up your game in the spots you die most often, and watch replay videos to see how others do it.

MoF was awkward at first but I got used to it and liked it a lot more. However Aya's stage is always a nightmare.

New bomb system benefits you quite a bit in MoF. You always have at least one free bomb at 5 power and it's easy to regain typically. Now SA on the other hand, you pretty much never have a free bomb. Either I die early on because I didn't bomb enough or die tons later because I ran out of shot power.

After beating Mokou I was sure 1cc'ing MoF would be a piece of cake and then nothing worked..
I didn't get how the hitboxes worked, the deathbombing time of IN was gone and my rage level was off the charts

Don't be afraid of bombing. The power items drop like candy and the bullets cancelled by bombing jack your score up pretty good. Know those big fairies in stage 5 that spam bullets off screen?

I tried collecting a lot of bombs on one run. Ran out on Shou and had no real chance on Hijiri. Basically wound up in the same situation that I did if I went for the red UFOs.

While it's good that you don't lose the spare bombs when you die, you use the extra ones first rather than the two you gets per life. If you die, you're technically losing two bombs.

As you can tell, I really don't like UFO's mechanics.

Well yeah, but think of it this way.
Red UFOs give you 2/5 of a life, green UFOs give you a bomb and a third.
For every life, you get two bombs.
So to make things even, say we collect 5 UFOs of either type.
Red: 2 lives, 4 bombs, so let's say 6 times we can get hit.
Green: 6 and 2/3 bombs. We're slightly ahead now.
Doubly so, if you consider that bombing causes you to do significantly more damage instead of just dying and coming back, especially when the power loss is factored in.

Of course, that's assuming you're perfect in deathbombs, and never die with extra bombs left. That's the goal anyways though, so may as well go for green I say.

That's because SA is pure evil.

By far the hardest if you ask me, yes, harder than UFO..

I don't understand the rage over UFO, I mean I sucked really bad at it at first, as well, but.. if you know how to collect the UFOs in Stage 1 and 2 for maximum damage, at least stay on your level on Stage 3 and then bomb through Stage 4 while collecting massive amounts of red UFOs, not to talk about Stage 6, which is one big refueling station.. You may end up wihth 7 lives on Hijiri and she's one of the easiest Stage 6 bosses.

Absolutely, on normal.
On hard she turns rape mode on, I literally couldn't get past the second noncard without bombing everything before it. Upwards of 12 tries, and I got nowhere. At all.
It's HORRIFYING the difficulty jump she undergoes from normal to hard. UFO normal is easier than SA normal. UFO hard and SA hard? I don't know, but it's tons closer.

Interesting for you to ask, I always play Mountain of Faith, once everyday. It is the first game of the series I got.

I always played with the "no bomb" rule, since I believe that you need to understand, not avoid a spellcard to get pass it constantly.

Easy is a piece of cake with practice, I reached Kanako with all the extends and beat her losing about 4 of it.

Normal is endurable, but there is a massive difficulty jump at stage 4, the creeps start spamming bullets, even right before the half-boss fight (momiji). So you would have to use a bit tactic there.

My highest record (in terms of length) would be no bombs, Aya's last spell card.

That's a bad way to look at your bombs. Don't think of them as a tool to skip sections you don't understand. Think of them as tools to survive when it looks like you're going to die.

Bombing to save your life is different from bombing to get past a card you don't know how to do.

Train deathbombing. It's not like you can't try playing normally and only bomb for the moments in which it looks like getting hit is unavoidable.

Also understanding isn't all there is to danmaku. Skill is still required for many parts. And the way you're playing isn't really the best way to train it.

Slowly going through the game like the way you're doing will only see a gradual increase. Experiencing more types of danmaku will improve it better than repeatedly trying the same part over and over again.

The fastest way of obtaining skill is adjusting yourself to something far harder than the norm like lunatic. A tactic that helps immensely in 1ccing games on easy, normal, and hard is to play the difficulty above it and return back to the lower difficulty when you're used to the harder difficulty.

That trick however fails when you get up to lunatic mode though I suppose increasing the framerate and speed could possibly imitate it.

tl;dr Don't stagnate trying to get past a section you can't get past by holding back. Try using your bombs a bit in ways that don't disagree with your beliefs and see how far that takes you. And play hard to get better at normal.

I don't think any of the touhou games are much more difficult than others. all have their share of bullshit, their difficulty spike (Aya, Youmu, Shou, ...). EoSD was my first touhou game and i think most of the patterns there are not even "bullet hell". yet people deem it fiendlishly difficult.

that being said, there's a huge gap between normal and the higher difficulties in my opinion. ive beat all the extra modes of the windows series, but hard is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy beyond my grasp...
Youmu, haven't you said that you find Koishi very difficult? i have no problems with her, but i admire the very fact that you have gotten to Byakuren at hard difficulty

tl;dr - touhou difficulty is subjective

my problem with this strategy is that getting bombs doesn't cover for dying stupid deaths.
99% of my deaths are from trying to chase down ufo's and getting hit by bullets that I shouldnt' get hit by, with those cases it's prety hard to deathbomb..
For people who've cleared this, do you just ignore the scoring ufo's and do survival runs? I just can't get myself to do that in the big scoring points from stage 3 on and unfortunately i lose all my lives in those moments.. another problem with trying to bomb through those is that i can't track down the ufo's fast enough (reimu A..)

I'll have like 6 lives by stage 4 and then 1 by the time I get to Shou.

I did, though I've since managed to take her down. I think the main problem with her is the incredibly limited resources, especially as you're learning how the first few cards work. You only have two lives when you start her, and the only way you can get more lives is by not dying. So those first few times you only get two-three chances to learn the cards, and it's a nasty struggle.
It's not so bad when you get the earlier cards down and start on the back three-four cards though, as usually you have a decent amount of lives from the cards and noncards that you're used to.

Though I did only make it to Byakuren once - I've since tried to repeat that to attempt to take her down a few times, but Shou remains ever the roadblock.

Been playing since... 2005, I think. Haven't played it seriously until a few months ago when I noticed I had a few near 1ccs on MoF. Less than a week later had my first legit 1cc on Normal. Gotten all but UFO & SA 1cc'd right now. Starting to play on Hard now, and I can get up to the stage 4 boss on a decent run.

The one that strikes me most with that thought is Youmu's noncards really. I've possibly experienced that feeling in some cards, but I can only think of Youmu and her noncards really.

Actually there is Metal Fatigue. But I don't really contest it since the hitboxes for its bullets are pretty much the entire bullet.

>>6579226
It varies really. Occasionally I play windowed, other times on full screen. Though since I got a widescreen laptop it's mostly been windowed since fullscreen stretches the game and makes it looks a bit off.

SDM is annoying as hell, ZUN didn't think of making the hitbox/hitdot visible back then. ._.

Under a year and a half, I've 1cc'd 4, 6, 7, 8, and 10 on hard, all but 1 and 7.5 on normal, there are about 10 levels I haven't cleared in StB, and I've cleared the extras of MS, EoSD, PCB, IN, MoF, SA, UFO, and Hellsinker.

Yeah, Metal Fatigue is worse than its hard mode equivalent for me.

There aren't really any cards that come to mind, I normally admit to my mistakes, except when it comes to this card. Fuck it hard.

As someone who is currently working to 1cc SA, I always thought that card was piss-easy. Any of her cards with lasers, on the other hand, can fuck off.

Different anon.
The card isn't as much hard as it is disorienting. Big discrepancy between pixel and hitbox, plus coming in at an angle and varying speeds? Ugh. Might as well throw in some curving BS and call it a day.

I'm pretty fine with the laser spellcards. It's just that I always barely get hit when I don't think I should have on this one. Gets annoying after a while. Then again, I am also terrible when it comes to Sanae's spellcards also so eh.

I thought so too until I started switching quickly between focused /unfocused and mostly moving up and down. After that it became really easy.

I do that. Still annoying. I've only beaten it once outside of practice, and that was in my most recent run. This also made me remember how much bullshit many of Star Sapphire's spellcards are. I hate those too.

I swear to god this fucking card is either bugged or cursed. Or both.

>> No.6579582

Heh, it's the other way around for me. I play MoF and post games a lot more, so Touhou 6-8 actually feel pretty weird to me when I play them. It's just a slightly different feel that you get used to.

But yes, MoF, SA, and UFO all have this feel so get used to it. There just feels something different in the movement or...something.

The secret to it (on Normal anyway) is to think the gaps are smaller than what they look like... cause that's how it actually is. Even with Reimu's smaller hitbox I never try to force a dodge.

I suck at it. It frustrates me more than just about any other game. Managed a 2cc with Patche. Double Pain is the most bullshit attack ever.

haha thats actually my exact words everytime i do charming seige from ALL sides. just can't seem to get the hang of those big bullet's hitbox and its double as bad since the bullets are the same color as the hitbox, so you can't even see it when you are inside them :(

but if you're admiting the gaps ARE smaller than what they appear, then yur addmiting it IS bugged. i don't think i should have to force myself to deal with that when 1 bomb will take care of it for me

The thing with this card is that the bullets don't actually become smaller when their sprites change. That card would actually be too easy for a stage 6 card otherwise.

Like every one of my deaths on it was because one of the bullets limping its way off the bottom of the screen was moving slightly more diagonally than I thought and finally rounded over into the next pixel and clipped me with its enormous hitbox. It would be a fun reflex card if the old bullets got out of your way faster.

I don't like that card either. A bit of advice though, Suika in SA does the same damage whether she's focused or unfocused(Actually I think unfocused does a bit more damage). Play unfocused for that card all the time, the range of attack and damage is better.

I don't feel any difference between the windows games.

well, aside from the density and speed of the bullet cloud.... oh wait, yeah UFO retarded hitboxes.
