[Anonymous No.]

Maybe it's just "nostalgia" over all the time I've spent playing SWR/Soku, but I'm not liking the way this looks. The constant flight in particular looks clunky as hell, and I don't really like the new art style for the character sprites.

Still, all we've got is about 40 seconds of (presumably) an alpha/beta version in action, so I can't say much conclusively yet. I'll give it a shot once it launches, but there's a good chance I'll just go back to Soku in the end.

Fair point, goals are something most normals value.
But why do they value them?
To show off.
They want to achieve goals for others and not for themself.

Now what if you try to achieve things because only you want them?
Also, most normals are pretty far away from that self improvement thing.
Most of the time they blame others when something doesn't goes their way.Just like you.

[Saegrimr !SHIELDM.mE No.]

Red Bar is super meter, apparently. Getting hit and hitting things increases it obviously. Unsure if having low life limits your spirit or if its just a percentage.
I can't see anything that DECREASES the percentage under the life meter, but comboing and other strange things increase it.
Reimu still has a trap skill. (0:48)
Marisa has three stars next to her spirit meter which fill up as she does stuff. (0:52 and 1:03)
Reimu gains like a huge chunk of her life bar back after being stunned. Not sure what the fuck that is about. (1:10)
Also Stun counter that seems to be broke since its on 0% the whole time.

Still don't know what the fuck the circle bar around the portraits is supposed to be. Or those percentages.

I wonder if this stream is related at all >>9981787

[Anonymous No.]

This is obviously VERY alpha content, I wouldn't be surprised if the final product played much better and they changed up game mechanics. I think Marisa has only like 3 attacks in the video...
But honestly, I like it. The floaty looking flying would take some getting used to but it looks like it could work if done properly. It's one of the most interesting fighting games I've seen before.
Sadly with even more emphasis on ranged combat than the other fighting games, looks like Meiling won't make it on the roster after all...

[Anonymous No.]

I'd say it looks faster than the flying in Hitsosensituostutifruitti. I wonder how blocking and turning will be affected.

I wish we could have a super smash bros-type fighter. I'm not good at these skill-based fighters ;_;

[Anonymous No.]

>>9981967
But the fun of these kind of games is to improve by hard practice. Also, it's good to remember that this is probably an approach to the canon fights, since, you know, Reimu has no reason to not be using her flying power to fuck around with the characters on Hisoutensoku, yet she never uses it. Now it makes much more sense. It'll be very interesting.

[Anonymous No.]

She's a good boss she has more charisma and charm than your normal "final" boss, she has persistence which no other Touhou bosses have she's been the boss of multiple games while other boss characters have returned they have not been the 6th or Ex stage boss like Mima.

She has a classical and at times whimsical character design it's not overly edgy or screams "look at me i'm evil"

There's tons of thing to say about her really but you'll never understand them most people won't, Mima isn't so much something you describe but more something you experience

But you wouldn't know that instead of playing PC-98 you'd rather bitch on /jp/ about people liking a great character that you don't understand why they like her because you won't take the time to experience her yourself and instead expect other people to convey something to you you wouldn't understand anyway because you haven't played the damn games

All ZUN is saying there is that since he more or less decided to continue but with a different string of events not connected to the last PC-98 game it would make more sense for someone new ( secondaries ) to the series to understand the plot and not ask too many questions.

Unfortunately he created a paradox anyway because people that have played the series refused to just let those characters before EoSD go and except the current plot line without them, thus ZUN has also said those characters still exist but he either

a. can't figure out how to get them to snyc in with the current plot
b. would rather the players ignored they existed

The animations look jerky. I can't tell if I'll grow to love them or grow to hate them. Backgrounds and effects are nice. I think aerial fighting might be cool. It looks fun, I'm just worried it'll be one of those games where you're basically emulating a chase algorithm with your controller.

Maybe Chinese should have some auxiliary characters they use for sound effects, to avoid this kind of ambiguity.

They do. Many characters with the 口 mouth radical are onomatopoeia or exclamations. For example, 哈哈哈 (ha ha ha), 呜呜 (crying wu~ wu~), 啊 (ahh~!)

[Anonymous No.]

>>9984803
exactly this. Chinese people know that "response" is pronounced "da" in Chinese, and hence when they read "dadadadadada", the sound in their head is only "dadadadada", and from context, it becomes the sound of a gattling gun.

As a person of Chinese origin, I have to admit that the system in itself is quite imperfect. Names can be transliterated in multiple ways - for example, Barack Obama is called "Aobama" in mainland China, and "Oubama" in Taiwan; Sydney is known as "Xini" in mainland China and "Xueli" in Taiwan.

On one hand I'm super excited about the new sprite look and airborne fighting mechanics, but on the other hand that just means that the game's cast will have to be that much smaller. Just like IaMP It will probably have somewhere around 10 playable characters.
Here's my guess:
>Reimu and Marisa
>Senae (with Suwako and Kanako as spellcards)
>Youmu
>1-3 characters from Ten Desires
>1-2 new characters
