The setting has too much 4koma tier humor in it, so it's a miss match for the edgy stuff on Dork Soles. Would be weird to reconcile. The gameplay is also antithetical to Dark Soles in so far as it not being a snooze fest marathon of poking a big ass 3d model 60 times while dodge rolling ***through*** their attack animations thanks to i-frames.
Toehoe is way more dynamic and free flowing and harder. I'd prefer a Godhand or Ninja Gaiden but Touhou. Godhand especially is funny and goofy like a lot of touhou content (admittedly a bit too goofy but still). Then again, the setting has potential for other game genres but it would be far harder to execute if they're too far removed from Touhou. I remember an old thread talking about having Thief the Dark Project but set in touhou. Anyways Dank Souls sucks, play games that are actually hard and not boring. Put some actual hair on your chest then you can brag about beating hard games.

It's have to be something like a mob character exploring Gensokyo or the Underground to make it work I think, but most people would probably prefer 2hu's.
Or maybe something involving the Lunar Capital?

>> No.46867964

There's that one game where you play as a loli witch that I think has some 2hu references, but I forget it's name. All I know is that it's got ranged combat and the lead dev of it posted ecchi of her which pissed off dumb westerners, so he did it again.

I actually really wish I could remember it since I'm kinda looking for something short and sweet before Elden Ring's DLC drops...

Nobeta is unironically a good indie game. It's only like 10 hours long and has a fun combat system. Also the chinese are essentially carrying the touhou fangame scene these days. The latest gensowanderer is an absolute disgrace. A lot of the old time jp doujin circles are either dead or just create garbage these days.

An atmospheric arpg with lots of exploration has the potential to be incredibly comfy. It would be an absurd amount of effort for potentially very little payoff as the moods of the series are diametrically opposed. It'd have to be grimsokyo with very little music, which would alienate half the fanbase.
Still, we can dream.

Considering how death is handled and how almost everything is bigger than your player character in those game's I guess a fairy could also work.
Or idk Merry or Renko getting trapped into future ruined Gensokyo since those to are the closest you really have to a basic character.

You still could have music normally no need to go full souls. But yeah probably not what your average 2hu fan would play just like with Danmaku

Fairy fits perfectly, like the undead they even respawn.
Although if you went with an underdog fairy, I think you'd just end up making a knock-off Cirno. Although she's a bit of a special fairy in her own right.
No matter what you probably couldn't have a dialog-less non-character mc since Touhou is kind of known for it's dialogue.

Foresight, the one that came out a few days ago. It's only around 20 hours to 100% everything in the game. So much of the game was cut out that its ridiculous. I would have taken another clownshow of lotus labyrinth over how foresight turned out. the game doesn't even have a 99 well skindive.

That's... shocking. I didn't even know you could cut out content in a Mystery Dungeon game. Even if story is a meaty chunk of these games, it's still a Mystery Dungeon game. Looking at the reviews too seems like it has an immense amount of grinding compared to earlier games too.

The game only has characters up 6-9 and even then it's still missing a lot. The previous games basically had every single character all the way up to 17 since it was the newest at the time. the game is just unfinished and kind of insulting after their previous games. The game is $40 and it's missing basic features like a status screen or just a simple bestiary to see what enemies actually do. The art by curee is still nice though so the game isn't all terrible.

A normal fairy would be perfect. She'd also be a good blank slate for the player to customize.
Just make her fight relatively weak youkai (other fairies, team 9, etc) but make it seem really epic from her point of view. It could take place during the stone cherry incident in the last fairy manga, to make the stakes apocalyptic from the point of view of a fairy.

There is "Yuuka souls"

but it doesn't even have a release date yet and the jam game it's based on doesn't really feel like Dark Souls.

Maybe it would let Daiyosei shine she could even short range teleport which is more convincing for i-frames(would rather actually have to dodge tho)... But if Dai fits that means that Lemontene might also work.

>but make it seem really epic from her point of view.
I also like the ruined world land and would like to see more powerful characters but stage 1 and 2 bosses having some epic battles and it turning into some not so serious stuff would be hilarious.
>but it doesn't even have a release date yet and the jam game it's based on doesn't really feel like Dark Souls.
True aside from healing(funny animation) it feels pretty different, but flight and danmaku change a lot any gameplay, most games don't have that

It would be cool to see. If you're going with a character native to the games you'd have to go with one of the weaker ones. Seiga and Marisa are known thieves but their abilities would be too broken for a stealth game (And Marisa doesn't exactly sneak) Maybe even Renko or someone close to a average human in terms of power. Or even Garrett himself if you want the experience to be close to the games as possible.

I think a game like that could work. It'll allow you to explore different locales in Gensokyo in person and give you more insight on the inhabitants because you're spying in on their lives. You could see what books Patchouli has hidden away in the forbidden section or overhear Byakuren's disisplices complain about their duties or nab Aya's venting dairy where she complains about everything.
