Oh god, this is a lot better than I thought it would be.
No meta gaming stat boost calculations. Everything done out flat and right. Bonuses are properly exponential and apply evenly regardless of when you put them.
Limited battles per character, but you get almost the entire cast from touhou series.
Sakuya has za warudo.
Meiling is a fine brick wall
Cirno is the strongest facing bosses.
Cheeeeeeeeeeen Cheeeeeeeeen.

Gameplay is pretty interesting when against bosses. You switch out characters and keep trying to pile on effect while trying to keep Marisa and Patchy from being oneshot.

You'll have to use skills and swap out characters so they recover SP.
Reimu's defense and healing are useless. They cost a lot of SP and you won't use them at all.
It's always better to just improve the highest stat that a character has when they level up since it's most likely they'll rely on it.
HP recovers after a battle so no need for a lot of other hassles.
Remilia and Sakuya, after a few levels with boosting attack their skills are physical attacks are very impressive.

Even if you can't read Japanese. Using the skills are getting a feel of how the game runs is pretty easy.

What does Concentrate do?

[Anonymous No.]

Damnit, all this game does is crash whenever I try to run it.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3185747
Concentrate recovers SP at a rate of your SP recovery rate percentage.

Interestingly enough it recovers in battle when they are not in the party at a rate that looks like one concentrate per their regular recast of concentrate as if they were in the party. So, Patchy recovers pretty damn slow, while you could swap out Chen for two or three turns and see her with full SP again. HP may also apply, but not certain.

So is it normal for attacks to do shit damage? I do 0-30 with a normal attack and spells do several hundred.

The download is for the original game and the C76 Plus Disk. There are two folders. You can either play the original by itself (folder '東方の迷宮'), or copy the Plus-Disk files over the files in the original.
Then download the 2.03 patch from the website.

Well, I've downloaded the patch and copied all the files, ran the game in both applocale and after changing my language to Japanese. It looks like it starts to load the title screen but crashes soon after.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3185863
AppLocale shouldn't be necessary (or do anything) if you're computer is running in Japanese locale.

Is it giving an error, preferably one you could plug into google translate? Or one containing a filename, e.g. "file bgm2.dxa is missing" in Japanese?

Ok. I just leveled up Sakuya. Why is it necessary to do it manually instead of the standard 'You have 1000 exp! You are now level n!' in most other RPGs? Unlike the skillpoints it doesn't seem to be a single pool for every character. Is leveling up not always good, or what?

[Anonymous No.]

>>3185938

It's a system a lot of old games used. You won't level up in the Dungeon, so what you go in with, that's what you have.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3185945
So there's no disadvantage to leveling up? Hell it's even asking me for CONFIRMATION.

Is there any way to get to a lower floor you've been to without having to go through all the previous ones?

[Anonymous No.]

>>3186264
Yeah, on the next floor near the entrance is a warp pad.
>>3185959
You'd be surprised how many people enjoy not leveling up just for the extra challenge. It's possible to beat the game at level 1 if you just only put points in the bonus stats and carefully plan and level up stuff.

Checked the wiki out already, and they've already confirmed that the bonuses and level increases stay at a constant regardless of which way you put them in.

You'll have the same str with level 30 and level 30 str bonus regardless of the order you went to reach them.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3186638
Yeah, I'm familiar with low-level challenges. Although in all of the ones I've heard of, part of the difficulty is that you can't kill anything. leveling up only outside of the rift I can understand, but not making it automatic just seems silly to me.

And I died to Hong Meiling. Wee.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3186638

So you mean hitting level 2 is the same as using skill points to level each stat to 2?

[Anonymous No.]

>>3186941
No, he means there's no advantage to leveling up later like in some games. If you raise Atk using skill points and goto character level 2, it's the same as if you did it the other way around. Sometimes stat gain on character level up is dependent upon other stats.

PROTIP: Raise Sakuya's speed on level up, not her atk/matk.

On boss fights, she should be doing nothing but dio's and luna dials, speed is all that matters. And for regular fights, her MT spells are strong enough as is.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3187165
Cirno is the strongest. Her slow down and paralysis work so well on bosses.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3187127
What does this do?

[Anonymous No.]

>>3187271
It's a text file that lists a lot of char's skills and what they do.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3187271
Along with the general system menus translated.

Listen to >>3187165 pump sakuya's speed not attack. It sucks being the farthest one in the en community because then you're the guinea pig. I want those 30 levels of atk I put into sakuya back!

Later on when she has 222+sp, za warudo -> luna dial is an amazingly effective boss opener since it keeps her at +100spd all the time which means she will regen like mad which means all your chars get and stay faster. I guess even early game you can start off a boss battle with za warudo, switch out for a little while and bring her back in when she has enough for luna dial.

Do note, that the game (when played blind) is a lot nicer to you than eo games, at least early on. After wiping once on 1F to china, I didn't wipe again til 7F boss (ignoring 2 certain rape bosses, you will know if you meet them). The floors are also larger than eo floors, so even though the game (non-expansion) only has 20F, it will take a while.

>>3187218
Yes they are, but you don't meet many bosses vulnerable to paral. But there are lots vulnerable to stat down, and -spd is critical against them. Your buffs are godly too, so the mana khemia-esque switching madness strat works very well.

[Anonymous No.]

So, I just got killed by some butterfly looking thing that nuked my entire party in one shot. Is it crucial that I take that out before moving to the next floor? Or is there something Im missing about that encounter?

Also, this game is awesome.

MK was fun, but you don't really get into the meat of it until you get more than 3 chars, and that takes a while, so a lot of people don't get there. If you want damage, Pamela does way more (you try matching 27k damage every 2 cards).

>>3188818
4k? Sure you're not missing the 1? Hits me for 14-16k and my chars are in the 70s range.

Tried it up the 5th floor. Too fucking grindy and the levels are way too large. It might be tolerable, but the TP system is terrible. Why am I limited to X battles before I have to return and restart the floor? Fuck this Asian RPG grindfest trend.

The TP system ends up as... If you take damage you lose 3 TP, status effected at the end of battle you lose another. Run away from a battle and you lose 3.

Best remedy is to use skills that kill off all monsters without taking damage. Cycle the characters out and you'll stay a lot longer. Just barely beating Alice and Yuuki were thrilling. I am not feeling your rage.

Is Chen going to get one shotted all game? Her low hp, def, and mdef make her all too easy to kill, and trying to boost those stats gives minor upgrades at best.

[Anonymous No.]

So apparently this game is debugger proof, barring finding the AoB stings or decrypting the incomprehensible save file.

Argh, back to grinding it is. Later floors just get brutal.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3190884
Hey they do ST attacks sometimes, then it sucks when patch is in front!

>>3192650
The game didn't feel particularly grindy to me. I just got 100% map completion on every floor and that was enough to take out the bosses in one try up til 7. 7 is an asshole of a floor though so I spent less time there then you're "supposed to," so was underleveled for the boss. Not that I grinded much to beat it anyway, just changed strats, but I did wipe 4-5 times.

The maps definitely are larger though, but remember this isn't EO, there are only 20F.

I don't find TP that bad, it's good to return to town every once in a while anyway to levelup and junk. Also losing 75% of a map because you were too curious and ran face first into a a foe sucks. Also for probably the first 13 or so floors, you can generally make pretty much all battles only use up 1TP per char with proper application of high speed MT nuking. Then switch chars around to recover sp and nuke some more until TP is out then back to town.

>>3192683
Did you like the meat grinder that was Yugi? Your chars aren't even meat shields, just speed bumps.

>>3193981
Yeah pretty much. She's not meant as a tank (evade type), she's there to switch in, self buff, spam the fuck out of her extremely low recovery move, then switch out. That or be faster than certain annoying fast enemies and kill them first for random battles. She can survive a hit or two later on at higher levels, but then so can everyone.

Oh random note, evade is shit, don't bother leveling it. On the player side it only works against normal attacks not skills, thus completely worthless (the maker of the game says it's a dead stat). Of course the enemies will be happy to dodge your master spark.

>>3194412
You don't know brutal til you get to 14F+, that's when the whole "kill all enemies before they can move" strat stops working. It works quite well up til then though with proper use of Marisa/Chen/Aya/etc.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3195633
Well, even if I put chen in the third spot, she tends to immediately get killed when something tosses magic her way. I guess she will just be used as an anti-boss glass canon.

Sucks about the evasion thing, too.

[Anonymous No.]

So what's the difference between the bonus skill increase on level up and just using the shared skill points at the SDM? >>3187411 made it sound like increasing attack by level up was a complete waste. Does it also increase potential or something?

Well, Chen isn't meant to be out when an attack hits, she should be gone by then (see their turn coming up and expect magic? switch herself out)

>>3196683
Nah, it's only a complete waste on Sakuya as you'll basically never be using her attack moves on bosses, you'll always be speed buffing, so she has little use for atk. Much better pumping spd, which I wish I had known earlier so I could've put those 30 levels of atk into spd instead.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3196748
Oh. So raising Sakuya attack at all is a waste. I see.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3196683
the bonus you select on level up counts equally to the ones given by the shared skillpoints, so using either or doesn't matter. They add to a multiplier on that characters base for that stat (I assume, like how items do)
