1CCing Subterranean Animism on hard mode is my most recent accomplishment. My score sucked, I player Reimu A and abused her power whenever possible, I bombed on every one of Okuu's spellcards and the replay didn't save right so I can't even gloat about it but fuck it, I did it.

Beating Imperishable Night on Hard will probably what I aim for next, it doesn't seem too bad compared to some of the others. Either that or going back to working on the extra modes for 9 and 12.8, since they're the only Windows Extras I still have left to finish.

When all that's done, it'll be on to PC98 games, so I can say I've beaten all the extras without having to add the qualifier "Windows" each time.

It really depends on how good you are. With on and off playing, it took around 50-60 hours until my first 1cc, which was MoF Normal. I only had 10 hours of MoF played, but I had played the other games while focusing more on MoF.

>> No.7244285

>>7244266
There's a certain approach for every spellcard. Lunatic makes the window of time in executing said approach just more difficult. If you can perfect the first 4 stages, you can bombspam the last two. Just choose a strong shottype so the last card doesn't become problematic. There's a reason why people don't use ReimuA in MoF Hard and upwards.

It's different for everyone. I know people who cleared hard mode (PCB) in their first ten games. Personally haven't cleared any hard modes after 3 years, but I guess I'm close enough (dying to 80% Deflowering because I don't even have any bombs left to nullify the whole card; dying to Eirin because I lose focus; losing focus in Kanako's last one; you get the idea), and I usually only play like 2 - 3 hours a week.

I use one of these generic Logitech USB gamepads. The face buttons are kind of mushy, so it's awful for fighting games. The d-pad, however, is pretty decent, and since the d-pad is the only thing that really matters for most shmups (you're either going to be hold the shoot button down or just mashing it like crazy), it works well enough for me. They're really cheap too, only $10 or so.

I also have a PS3 controller but no PS3. If I'm emulating a PS1/2 game or something similar, it works pretty well. For 2D games, however, I hate the d-pad's guts. I've never been a huge fan of the PlayStation-style d-pad, but with the PS3, they made it even smaller to the point where you basically can't use it for anything other than COD BLOPS-style extra buttans.

A week or two after that, I felt really badass for some reason, having never beaten an Ex, so I decided to kick Ran in the face with SakuyaA. Easy modo, I know, but afterwords I made up for it by beating Ran with ReimuB. Then with SakuyaA, I made it half way through Yukari on my second try.

I'm not much for grinding, I usually just play one round per game and day. I get to bored if I just play the same one over and over. At least I can move on to Normal on IN now. I'm pretty close to 1cc on MoF too.

>>7245191
It was the best feeling. I had no bombs and no lives when I got to Kaguya's last spell, I was almost holding my breath and my heart was beating so hard it hurt. I know that feeling will never come back but it's still enough to motivate me to keep playing.

Sorry I'm babbeling. I don't have anyone else I can tell this sort of stuff..

They meant less time consuming, not easier (you already know all of Yukari's spell cards except for 1 when you unlock Phantasm, or you know all of them if you play IN).

That's fine. My 1cc was against Kanako. I was playing just for the hell of it, didn't expect to seriously win because I only had two lives at stage 6 and the last time I played Kanako destroyed all five of them with her last spellcard. I make it to her last card with one life and two power, and I manage to deathbomb perfectly every single time until I didn't have any power or lives left. I was pretty surprised when I heard her starting to explode. I actually did 1cc it before with Marisa B to see all the hype but it was an empty victory so I didn't count it. So yeah, if you use Marisa B in MoF, don't abuse the bug because it's the most hollow victory ever.

You shouldn't need to grind on one game specifically unless you're playing on lunatic or for score. Build your skill in all sorts of danmaku, come back after getting better at reading bullets without staring at your hitbox, training your reflexes, finding new methods of streaming...

Working on getting my miss count on PCB Hard down to the lower-teens. The difficulty for PCB seems really weird. Comparing Normal to Hard, the Prismrivers scale more than Youmu, difficulty-wise. Yuyuko's an absolute joke.

The main difference in the Prismrivers is in the first 3 spellcards, some of which are easier than others. I suggest fighting the youngest sister, and definitely try to avoid the second half of solo Merlin.

The gaps are huge. You basically go slowslowslowslowdash to one side (usually the outer side) then fit in through the gap, then slowslowslowslowdash fit etc. If you think Youkai Polygraph is hard, wait until you see Genesis of Subconsciousness. . .

>> No.7248290

>>7248091

Genesis of Subconscious and Rorschach in Danmaku are two cards that I can never capture when playing against Koishi. I've got them both once with Reimu A but never again.

I seriously hate Rorschach in Danmaku because I feel it is should be easier than it is and I keep fucking up in places where I feel I shouldn't on it.

The thing about Rorschach is that you KNOW you can do it, but sometimes you're just one pixel off and you get chipped. I generally just bomb when I don't feel highly confident (the 3rd waves onwards). Funnily enough, I tend to do the homing heart-shaped trailing one better when I have 0 power than when I have full power; most of the times I captured it was with 0 power. The power of desperation, it is amazing.

it's easier than Ran to beat it for the first time, because the difficulty jump from main-game to extra is bigger than the jump from extra to phantasm, plus you can use a bunch of the tricks you know for extra against her.
