I can't get past Stage 5 in SA on easy modo and I used like 3 continues to even get there.

Should I kill myself for failing so much, /jp/?

Yeah, but sometimes I just press them too late. Got used to playing Imperishable Night where you can use bomb way too late and still survive.

I've been playing Touhou for a year and I still can't beat Normal mode consistently. While I've accomplished it with each character in each game, those were often by luck or the skin of my teeth

[Anonymous No.]

>>1159907
I can't beat it either ;_;

[Anonymous No.]

>>1159941
I have that problem too. But, as far as stage 5 easy mode goes... Spend most of the stage portion streaming, and at the boss, just move a lot depending on the card. Don't let the ghost-things get all up in your face.

Are there any remixes for SA songs? Specifically Third Eye. Combined with Satori, that song is incredible.

[King in Yellow No.]

Am I horrible?

Be of Good Cheer and Cave Alice's songs are my favorite.

I thought Third Eye was unimpressive.

[Anonymous No.]

oh lol I can't pass level 2 ;_;

[Anonymous No.]

i only play normal, and i can't get past stage 3
despite quite a large number of attempts

[King in Yellow No.]

>>1160096

I had that problem.

Then I played on LOL EZ MODO and was able to destroy 3 on Normal on my next try.

Now I'm stuck on level 5 normal, because Orin's a bitch.

[Anonymous No.]

I am at stage 5, Mari/Patchy, normal modo, but I lost a lot of lives in between Yuugi and Satori fights.Shit, need to train harder.

But really, I havent seen anything else

Everything is easy mode (on Normal mode, hurr) up until the last 4 attacks.

Fuck that shit.

[Anonymous No.]

I haven't been able to get past stage 3 on normal mode, no matter how many times I try. I played the demo, too.

I tried easy once with each character and 1cc'd two routes. Easy mode is very easy, normal is very not.

Of course, some stages will be much harder depending on who you use and how you do it. Parsee in particular requires that you think about how to beat her. The attack in the OP pic, on easy, should be easily beaten by waiting for the outside bullets to start curving in, and traveling between them to the outside of the trap.

[Anonymous No.]

I can get to stage 3, but that's it. If it wasn't for bomb abuse, I probably couldn't get past stage 2.

[Anonymous No.]

I cannot bring myself to break my pride and play easy modo
I have to continue like over 9000 times in normal and cannot make it past stage 5 period
but, as with all touhou games, just play it over
and over
and over
and eventually it'll come. no worries anon.

Stage 5 used to give me a lot of trouble, and I spent maybe 20 continues until I managed to beat it with Reimu/Aya... and 1 life left too!

Demo used to absolutely murder me, but after months of playing I can do relatively well now.

Oh hay, I just beat easy with no continues. I suck.

Am I the only one who plays on Lunatic Mode in the hopes that it will make Normal easier?

[Anonymous No.]

Stage 5 is _by far_ the hardest stage in SA, save Extra. It's like that on both Normal and Hard (haven't played it on Easy or Lunatic, but I'd assume the same).

Guys, I think you should be more little nice this time.

[Anonymous No.]

>>1159907

Yes. Seriously, this game is easier to complete on it's easy mode then Mountain of Faith (though only because the final boss doesn't have a long as fuck final spell card).

Though I will admit that Orin is a bitchy boss, got her sorted out for easy mode to the point I shouldn't lose lives against her now, but still those familiars are annoying.

Fuck Normal stage 5 though. I'd be alright otherwise.

[Anonymous No.]

advice to the op, play IN easy, it's the easiest easy, SA is by far the hardest. Excluding PoFV that is. Then play PoFV easy, you will learn to navigate through thick but small bullets. Then play whatever lunatic, you will learn to stream.

I normally use Marisa/Alice and do pretty well on Normal. Why is this combo bad?

[Anonymous No.]

Don't forget that sometimes it's easier to just dodge around the top of the boss to draw their fire away from the places you go to shoot them, that or shoot them from above with Patchy, Patchy/Marisa combo is awesome.

That said, I'm loving Reimu/Suika at the moment too for when I'm too lazy to graze for powerup auto-collection. Sure, I won't get max points but fuck points for the moment.

I love the mechanics in this game, the bombs are back to being individualistic depending on the character you play, the graze auto-collect encourages you to graze for power ups without having to rush all over the place and the little touches for each characters abilities are nice. Reimu/Yukari is hilarious when you warp from one side to the other as though, yeah it's got limited use but it's just amusing.

[Anonymous No.]

>>1160647

Personally don't have a problem with Marisa/Alice, the spread shot while focused is pretty nice and I suppose the ability to use 8 bombs (even if they are short as fuck) is nice as a escape mechanism.

Personal preference on game style I guess. They are all fun and useful in their own way... though Reimu/Aya's gimmick power isn't too good. Great, while I'm not shooting I move so fast it's hard not to hit something. Love to see a reply of Normal+ making good use of Aya or Yukari's gimmick power.

[Anonymous No.]

>>1160746
I like using Aya's speedup power to auto-collect items at the top if the screen is mostly clear of enemies. Of course, you can usually just as easily do that with any other character combo, but with Aya it's at least faster and easier.

[Aya Shameimaru !TENGUWdjvs No.]

>>1160642

Do not start with IN. PCB is the best for newcomers to Touhou.

I don't recommend PoFV either, since it's relatively easy to relieve pressure and you don't learn too much in the way of grazing. Though I suppose you can learn a thing or two about keeping your ass still and not moving erratically, and reflex bombing.

[Anonymous No.]

>>1160746
Yeah, I didn't find that much use for Reimu C's gimmick power, a bit too reckless for my taste, maybe for an easier time turning around a stream? But her bomb makes up for that, helped me 1cc Normal.
Reimu A's gimmick power is good for those who have trouble turning around a stream, and for dealing with Parsee's 2nd spellcard.
