Clearing a Touhou game with default lives, no extra outside programs (other than possibly vpatch to remove vsync but using it for NOTHING ELSE), and so on, without continues, is all abbreviated to '1cc' because it's a common first achievement to go for, and it's easier than 1cc No Extra Starting Lives No Outside Programs Other Than Vpatch But Just To Remove Vsync And Nothing Else (1ccNESLNOPOTVBJTRVANE) to type and say. Clearing a game without continues is technically clearing the game with one credit regardless of other circumstances, but to start with 7 lives or so and claim that it's a 1cc that deserves as much praise as a 1cc that follows the usual rules is faulty.

I'm bored of that argument from last thread. I don't want to retype my same response yet again, so let's argue about something else:

> vpatch to remove vsync but using it for NOTHING ELSE
Still cheating. It essentially makes the game easier.

>> No.9827488

Do you even know what vsync is? What it does is add an artificial delay.

Might as well play on a crappy keyboard, because using anything else ``makes the game easier".

"Making the game easier" is screwing around with words. "Making the game's controls as responsive as possible" certainly makes the games easier if you've been plagued by the gross amounts of input lag EoSD and PCB slam you with. Its benefits will vary depending on the computer (rather, depending on how shitty your controls were to begin with), but only such that anyone using vpatch is given both optimal and equal controls. I've yet to see anyone justify calling this cheating though so I'm not sure why I even bother explaining why it isn't.

The penalty to score offsets the advantage you would get from starting with more lives.

ZUN could have programmed it so that starting with extra lives makes it impossible to unlock extra mode, if he thought that didn't count as a 1cc. It unlocks extra mode, so it counts.

Other than in EoSD and MoF (which you can't even increase default lives on anyways), extends aren't based on score, so it wouldn't matter for survival.

And even if that were a tenable argument, why would you increase starting lives, then, if it just balanced out in the end?

If you're just going for a 1cc, score has nothing to do with anything, except in the cases where score grants you extra lives at certain thresholds. I don't think the score penalty is so severe that it prevents you from reaching all the thresholds even if you start with extra lives, though I haven't tried it myself, since I'm not a faggot.

>It unlocks extra mode, so it counts.

Unlocking Extra mode is not what makes clearing the game a true 1cc.

>> No.9828545

>>9828538
>I don't think the score penalty is so severe that it prevents you from reaching all the thresholds even if you start with extra lives

Doesn't the multiplier only get applied at the end?

In which case it wouldn't make a difference. EoSD is the only one with selectable lives AND score extends, though.

Goddamit, I was almost close in finishing EoSD. Today I was finally able to reach the final stage, although shamelessly using continues. I tend to use the bomb only when I'm in 100% pinch which doesn't always exactly happen as I expected. Majoriy of the time I'll get hit because I let my guard down, I move to fast and all over the place or the bullet was shot damn too fast at me. In fact I don't like using bombs, my denial to use it is so obdurate to save my life. I can finish the first 3 stages in practice mode without using bombs though. The problem I'm having is connecting those stages together. Well wish me luck /p/.

Also do I get something if I was able to clear stage 1 in lunatic mode with no bombs? I guess it's normal stuff. Don't mind me, I'm shit with this game.

How much does one spend time in a one sitting play? And what is the considered normal or average? I almost cleared PCB just now although using continues. I feel bad for not being in the lunatic level, shit I don't think I could 1cc it either. I fucked it all up and started to use continues in Youmu's stage. Almost beat up Yuyuko in her last line of life but I had to fuck things up by refusing to bomb fest. I refuse to use that as much as possible, I'd like to dodge the bullets with my own skills and not depending on bombs too much. Heck, I refuse to even watch toho runs on YT, stream etc. I want to figure out the dodging and patterns by myself, it's one of those things that keeps the game interesting and thrilling I guess but I think it's more have to do with my pride as a gamer. Do you guys watch replays, get tips, read strategies for your advantage?

I have played only EoSD and PCB so far. I prefer the former since it's slightly fast paced more than the latter. PCB is fairly slow and it takes a long time to reach the last stages. I haven't really tried Marisa to her fullest yet as things are gonna be harder without homing but I'll give her a try soon.

I forgot to mention how rewarding it was to do a perfect run of patchouli's stage. Shit felt so awesome. Now what I'm having trouble is NB'ing pre-boss Sakuya's second spell card. Better practice more.

I wouldn't worry so much about how other people play. Everyone plays for different amounts of time, everyone plays on different difficulty levels, etc.
Just play whenever you want, at a pace you feel comfortable with. I don't believe there's anything wrong with looking up strategies for certain patterns either; even if you know what to do, you still have to perform it.

>> No.9841901

>>9841724
Usually, 5 to 6 hours when I'm angry or frustrated. 30 minutes to an hour at best if I'm depressed and keep fucking up on stage one or two. I don't know about the average time but you should always aim for more. If you like fast paced games, try SA (or MoF if you're not a masochist). Stages in those games fly by quickly. And I wouldn't really say EoSD is fast because of that ridiculously long and slow stage 4 that just drags on, but compared to PCB, maybe it is faster.

>> No.9842050

>>9841900

Well yeah, but half of the fun is the figuring process. I may have wanted some insight on how others play to spark up some competitiveness, to strive being a better player and to aim for improvements.

>>9841901

I think my average would be around 2+ hours. If I'm fed up I would go for more until I somehow get a satisfying result or I would then give up due to countless failures and decide to call it a day. Alright, I'll check those titles out. And yeah, EoSD is noticeably faster compared to PCB.

>> No.9842073

I never watch replays when going for my first clears. I share and exchange ideas through replays when competing with someone.

With that said, I don't think there's anything with watching replays, at least not in a "cheating" sense. If anything, you're cheating yourself out of the experience of figuring out everything for yourself. If that's what you want to do, so be it.

You will find that not using continues will make you play better. Deaths stack. The better you are doing, the better you will keep doing. Also, bombing is part of your skill. My advice is to worry about limiting your use of bombs after you have cleared the game at least once.
>Heck, I refuse to even watch toho runs on YT, stream etc. I want to figure out the dodging and patterns by myself, it's one of those things that keeps the game interesting and thrilling I guess but I think it's more have to do with my pride as a gamer.
All the fun of the game for me is performing it, not just learning it. Of course, you can't learn it completely without practising on your own. You will always be making your own strategies and improvising when things go wrong. That's just part of the skill. This usually depends on someone's personal preference. I like to watch as much media about a game as I can if I'm going to be playing it seriously, but not everyone likes this. You might find yourself at a disadvantage if you don't learn from others, especially with higher-level play.
>Do you guys watch replays, get tips, read strategies for your advantage?
Yes, and much more.

What is fun about streaming ? Why people keep asking for stream ? There are 60 words "stream" in this thread already. All i can see about those stream are awful skills, horrible voices, circle jerking in chat and restart over and over again.

>> No.9854034

>>9854005
You get to watch other people play Touhou and chat about it with them. Some people seem to enjoy it.
I don't know much about the streamers' side, or why they like to do it. Streaming makes me really bad in Touhou, but maybe it gives some other people a kick.

>> No.9854041

Well people only go to them for the circle jerking. If anything I think streams are just another way of attention whoreing but then again I'm also a bitter man that doesn't want anyone to enjoy things in groups so I'm a bit biased.

I think streams are about having a somewhat social aspect to niche games that are about playing alone. Maybe even a replacement for hanging out in an arcade with your friends playing.

Who doesn't know. My point is watching stream is bad because you waste time watching a guy restarting stage 1 over and over because he's not at his best form.

>>9854165
Not always a waste of time. Sometimes it gives you new perspective of where the real hard part is. Replays seldom show failed parts, especially on the earlier stages because you can just retry at that point without losing much.

It was for a rarely used Finnish board where a silly challenge-thingy was going on.

I made several stupid mistakes in the run, which made it look like a first-clear of the game, aside maybe the conditions. Therefore, I joked about myself a bit by naming it in such a way.

I'd never have posted it to /jp/, I have no reason to post every single shitty replay I do here.

If even one person in the world wants to watch me play, I would like to stream for that person. That alone keeps me playing more than I usually would alone, and therefore gives me more practice in the long run. Some people might have the motivation even when playing alone. Perhaps they lag when streaming and cannot play their best. It's all personal preference.

As to whether or not streaming is an act of circlejerking I do not care for. I don't even post my streams here, or anywhere for that matter.
