Got closer than ever to 1cc'ing MoF but bomb nerf in the end caught me off-guard. Also I'm always losing a life or two to fuck knows what on "RGB eggs transforming into small bullets" spellcard.

Yeah, I find that one even worse than Sanae's various hitbox-squishers. Just bomb it straight away.
On the other hand, for the last card, you can get away with some insanely bold maneuvers dodging between amulets. It's sometimes better to go straight through a set than to try to go around and then get stuck off to the side doing no damage.

it's the only game i've played so far where i've had to give in and raise the starting live counter in order to 1cc it. i probably could've done it with just 3 lives if i gave it some more time, but losing all my lives to the same thing each run (mima's 2nd phase) got tiring.

I'll play it once you are done, no matter how long it takes for you to make it.
Do you want me to keep track of time, to keep you motivated?
To be perfectly clear, I believe you can do it: There are a lot of fan games of comparable or better quality than the official games. ZUN has a lot of experience making these games, for sure, but the top-tier fan games usually have bigger teams full of young people who pour their souls into making the one game.

Nue and her stage are an absolute joke if you ask me. Definitely one of the easier extras and of no comparison to SA extra, which in turn is complete nonsense. In UFO I am barely pressured by any card. I have plenty of resources thanks to the UFOs that also clear would-be tough spots for free.

SA? I barely have 3 lives at best with maybe 1-2 bombs and not even full power. I almost have to pray against Sanae because I can't look at so many directions at once. Koishis very first card is a trick that kills you unless you know it. What the fuck. Nue had no knowledge checks.

>>34289170
Don't feel bad. The UFO route during the stage is quite strict, and it punishes you for not knowing which statics UFOs are next. The UFO route is definitely something of a "knowledge check".
On the other hand, you don't need to execute a perfect UFO route: Nue herself will give you plenty of resources, and her attacks aren't too difficult.
Good luck!

The lack of a practice mode really is quite annoying because there's nothing too difficult before you get to fighting Yuki or Mai but to get attempts at that or Yumeko and Shinki you have to play through the rest of the game every time.

I'm really struggling on SA stage 3 and Yuugi is seriously kicking my ass, do I just toughen up and keep grinding or change shot type? I really like Reimu B for the auto collection and for Suika but it seems kind of weak damage wise.

How the fuck do you get good at dodging bullets that come from different sides? like vertical and horizontal at the same time?!?! this always fucks my brain. do you have to look at a specific place or it comes naturally after sometime (play more).

also i'm close on doing my first 1cc but i still need some practice and i don't have the time anymore. what's the best way to practice dodging and stuff? should i focus on one game at a time doing spell practice or should i play as many different games as possible e.g. playing eosd,pcb on the first day then IN,mof on the next day?

If it's something like static crossing walls then align yourself with upcoming gaps one axis at a time, forget about it until it passes through you and focus on the next wall in the meantime.
If it's some messy aimed rng pattern then move actively towards upcoming gaps and safe lanes.
If you don't understand a pattern then use spell practice to "solve" it.
If you understand a pattern but just fail to execute the dodges consistently then keep playing normally. Important part of getting gud is becoming desensitized to easy and moderately challenging patterns to be able to dedicate all your mental energy (and bombs) to tough parts.
I'd recommend focusing on one game you're trying to 1cc and play other ones just for fun when you need a break to come back to your 1cc attempt with a fresh mind.

This is the biggest thing you should take away from this, try to get in the habit of actually using your bombs and not wasting them by getting a miss when you could have bombed instead.
It's something I personally struggle with a lot and there's so many times I've wasted a bunch of bombs and had to reset runs because I'm too stubborn to use them early on.

Normal is the normal experience.
If you're good at stage 4, 5 and 6, you probably just need to grind it out until you get a good run.
If you die to stupid things, don't hesitate to bomb them. It's fine to use a bomb on Meiling, or even Cirno, as long as you get enough score to get the extra lives you need.

TD was my first Hard 1cc and I don’t know if it’s the easiest, but I'd recommend it. The patterns are a bit easier than what you can usually find on Hard, but the tight resources mean that you have to be able to perfect most of the game. I feel it’s a nice introduction because it allows you to actually play through the game and get used to slightly tougher patterns instead of bombspaming the latter stages.

After doing all Windows games on Normal, I started doing all games on Hard in release order. I'd say they are mostly comparable in difficulty, the only game that really sticks out as being notably more difficult is UFO.
TD is a good choice, though: I actually skipped ahead and did that out of order, since my Normal 1CC went by so quickly that I barely had time to get familiar with the game.

I honestly can't play with marisa; she's way too fast for me and her bigger hitbox isn't helping. I've 1cc'ed the game on normal with both reimus already, but I doubt I would be able to do it with marisa without practicing for some time.
Also, how difficult is the extra stage? I seem to do a bit better on it than I do on my attempts at 1ccing pcb (not that I'm getting very far into falndre's fight); would it make sense to simply keep on playing the extra stage or would my time be better spent improving my basic skills/getting more experience with other games instead?

Flandre is significantly harder than a Normal 1CC, I'd say. I got an EoSD Hard 1CC before I managed to beat Flandre.
Not that it's straightforward to rate her difficulty: like many Extra bosses, she's a bit gimmicky, in the sense that a few of her attacks aren't difficult to dodge once you've figured them out, but will just straight up kill you if you haven't.

>Also, how difficult is the extra stage?
Not that anon, but I think Flandre is pretty easy. Her non-cards are non-threatening (in comparison to other extra bosses), her worst spellcard is probably Maze of Love (since it's hard to recover from and you can't really do consistent damage to her if you aren't Reimu A due to all the movement) and her stage is pretty straightforward (aside from Philosopher's Stone). Ran is probably the only extra boss easier than her. Like this anon >>34360917
said, she has some gimmick cards but she melts away if you figure them out. I suggest watching a replay if you get stuck.
>would it make sense to simply keep on playing the extra stage or would my time be better spent improving my basic skills/getting more experience with other games instead?
Do both, anon. When you feel like you are actively doing worse grinding an EX stage, give yourself a break and move on to another game. Then, after like about half a day or a day's worth of rest, come back to the EX stage and try again. I believe in you, anon!

Yeah, I noticed how her spellcards (at leas the ones I saw) felt impossible until I figured out how they worked, but afterwards they were doable. Her nons feel like the only easy part of the fight, which is good since I honestly need the breather. I'm just gonna try and work on 1ccing pcb whenever I feel like I need a break and I'm probably going to watch a replay if I find myself being stuck at figuring out her spellcards.

"Clock That Ticks Away The Past" is easy. You have to stay in the bottom, then move to the left corner. On the next wave, move to the right corner. Then, on the third wave, move to the center (be careful and align yourself perfectly). From there, it's the same on repeat. Once you figure the path out, it's a free capture.

This spell card is stupid because it kinda forces you to go all over the place. I've always cleared this quickly with Marisa A so I had to play some Reimu to figure out what to do for the rest of the spell card. As a side note, I had no idea Marisa A melts down bosses WAY faster than Reimu B. I thought their damage was comparable for a long time (I don't play Reimu). Hiding the text in case you wanted to figure out a route by yourself.
1. When the spell card starts out, align yourself with the vertical background seam and sit still until you only see 2 curves. Your goal is to move left and weave between the two curves. Try not to veer off too far away from the middle.
2. After dodging the two intersecting curves, look at where the bullets are spawning in the middle. Move yourself between the two curving arcs and follow the curves' movements, weaving yourself to the right edge of the screen. If you're Marisa A, you should clear this card before hitting the wall (might need to unfocus a few times).
3.Start moving down and dodge in the corner area. If you're a super player, you could probably move yourself back into the center and end the spell card faster but I like to play it safe.
4. When the screen starts to get (relatively) empty, start moving towards the middle again, but stay a bit on the right side (you can dodge the spawning rows of bullets if you hug the bottom of the screen and stay to the right). Move left towards the vertical background seam line and keep shooting Patchouli. If everything went well, you should capture the spell card.

Is it just me or are hard and normal in eosd a lot closer in difficulty than either normal and easy or hard and lunatic? I literally just tried playing hard for the first time and was surprised that I got to stage 6 without using a continue on my first try. I feel like (if I had to describe the other difficulties in relation to normal) easy is normal just much slower and with some elements just gone (to the point of almost feeling like a broken game). Hard is normal but a bit faster with a couple new spellcards/gimmicks and lunatic is the game simply taking everything in hard but making it almost impossible to dodge due to the speed and added gimmicks.

I got to stage five on my first try on Hard in EoSD. Yeah, I definitely think EoSD is one of the easier games on Hard (mainly with MarisaB) but I'd say PoFV might be easier. DDC and MoF are close but it has been a little while since the last time I played those so I will need to go back to them

I personally struggled with MoF on Hard, compared to the earlier games. Even stage 1 has 2 tricky spells (Autumn Sky and a Maiden's Heart and the final), Hina's shattered talisman, Nitori's flood spell and especially her final are also killers. Aya is brutal, and stage 4 is always tricky.
I'd say all of EoSD, PCB, IN and PoFV are easier on Hard than MoF. Then again, I didn't find MoF that easy on Normal either.

Maybe one day, anon. Maybe one day.

This game does share one issue I had with PoFV though, which is that the difficulty of a battle seems pretty random. Sometimes I'll die before the opponent has lost a single health, then on rematch they'll die before I lose a single health, and I don't think I play any better the second time. I wonder if there's some scaling difficulty or if the timer is just randomized like PoFV.

Still, for some reason I'm enjoying this one a lot more than PoFV overall. Definitely having a fun time. Glad I finally decided to check out the pre-EoSD games.

Wow, I beat the game that's- oh, oh there's a secret final level you only get without using continues, and you get dejected immediately if you game over which prevents practice or foreknowledge.

just grind the levels in practice mode and use a bomb every time you start losing control during any actual attempt. you will remember where everything is by the time you're able to go through stages 4-6 on practice mode without losing a life.

If you’re worried about the automatic updates of thcrap, isnt there just a way to turn those off? I could’ve sworn there’s an option for that somewhere.

I dont understand how you can think that. Her firepower shreds everything.

Reimu A is the only EoSD shottype I’d consider bad since her damage output is awful, Marisa B too in Extra since Flan is immune to bombs but in the normal game she’s very solid.

>>	Anonymous Thu Apr 22 13:19:14 2021 No.34388164 >>34388014 I honestly have an easier time against flan with Reimu A than B. Being able to easily clear the screen is too useful.

Yeah the bomb is for screen clearing, not damage dealing.

I’ve never had too much trouble keeping track of the enemy with my peripheral vision and can stay below them easily enough. The range isn’t much different from B’s shot.

>>34388164
See for me, with Reimu B each section ends fast enough that I dont have as many opportunities to mess up, and dont need to bomb in the first place. With A that’s not the case, it always takes too long and I might fuck up, and having to use a good bomb is a worse situation than being able to keep a mediocre one for survival later.

I’m an impatient player in general though, I almost always prioritize dps.

>>	Anonymous Thu Apr 22 14:42:35 2021 No.34389166 >>34388251 So what? Know where enemies are going to spawn, and stay below bosses. Downside negated, and you still get the insane damage.

>Know where enemies are going to spawn,
This is barely an issue in EoSD, nearly every enemy group has pretty clear telegraphed spawn patterns you can pick up on clearly. The only exception off the top of my head is near the end of the library, where the rows of spinners appear in an odd order off the top/sides. And if you mess up attacking them and the screen gets too crowded, if you wait long enough near the bottom and stream a bit you should be able to clear that section with just one bomb.

>>34388619
I’m not THAT good, but touhou is very heavy on the fundamentals which is why stuff like that is possible. There’s a small amount of trial/error in the series, but nothing compared to what most shmups do.

But Marisa A is the best shot type in the game.
>>34388251
>miserable coverage
It's fine, considering how much damage its pumping out. If anything, the coverage is too big. It's only "miserable" for MAYBE the stages and even then, just learn them.

Stage 4 is actually harder than 5, excluding Sakuya’s fights. 5 becomes sort of trivial if you know how to stream shots properly. I suggest watching a no death playthrough, the same strategy works for most of the stage.

Stage 6 gets way easier if you just hang out in a corner and move through the expanding circles one at a time instead of hanging out in the middle or trying to do more than one at once. Again, the boss fights are the hard part.

5 and 6 seems overwhelming until you know these tricks, then you *mostly* just need to worry about bosses. The stage portions only really require knowing about one strategy then applying it to the whole level.

The library is kind of a motherfucker though.

How do you guys typically get out of slumps? I've been playing around four hours a day for around a week or so, and went from pretty consistent 1ccs to almost losing to Chen (PCB). I figured if I just kept on throwing myself at it I'd get better, but I'm just getting progressively worse, even as I try to switch up my shot types to break myself out of it. Should I just stop playing for two or three days, or switch to solely practice runs?

>>	Anonymous Fri Apr 23 13:18:04 2021 No.34405311 >>34403716 Whenever I fail a good 1cc attempt I start doing dumb mistakes in stages 2 and 3. Taking it easy and trying to play more aggressively in early stages usually helps me to get back into the fun zone.

Seriously, how do people manage to play with a keyboard and how could anyone believe playing on one could ever be easier than using a controller? It's not even that I'm simply more used to playing with a controller since I didn't struggle this hard with the controls when I first started playing and I rarely play any games using a controller besides touhou.
