So, why Touhou is so popular? I'm not saying it's bad, just curious.

>> No.8063339

I'm just here for the porn, really.

But it's not.

Good music leading into remix circles that generate money.
Fun leading into popularity leading into doujin games that generate money.
Pixiv porn leading to porn comics that generate money.

I like Touhou for the games.

But I'm part of an extreme minority.

Cute girls shooting each others to death.

Also, silly hats.

I like the games as well as whatever fanon does with music, art, and story.

Basically it's just for the girls? Too bad, I wanted to try it out, I should have expected this.

I like the music a lot, but the gameplay didn't inspired me, before downloading the game I wanted some opinions, that's all.

>> No.8063385

The games are the main meat for me. I can barely pass a stage 4 on hard mode or above, but it still doesn't stop me from enjoying the games. The pretty bullet patterns and the music, combined with my will to improve really gives it a lot of replay value.

Awesome games + good music + lovely characters + impressive fan works + perfect mix of loli/hags + malleable universe and history = OJOU-SAMA!, OJOU-SAMA! PLEASE DRAG ME ACROSS THE FLOOR LIKE THE WORTHLESS AND INSIGNIFICANT WORM I AM.

Because of the Let's See You Do Better effect:
ZUN's work is foundationally strong but the art is poorly executed, the musical execution isn't as awesome as what real bands can do, etc

It thrives because people can take a good idea and make it better

the thing is, you can individually tackle it as many times as you want and improve your abilities. The skill ceiling is not that high, I've beaten everything and I'm shitty as shit.
the "sequel" DS is somewhat easier.

But the games most suited for beginners are probably PCB, IN and recently TD.
It's just that the gameplay in StB and DS is different. I for one think they are the best.
