I'm a newfag to shmups. This game is fun, but why is it considered god tier in the genre?

main reason is because the Hyper lasts about 1 second. I'm more of a Battle Garegga - Yagawa fan desu.

Is Garegga really as dense as people claim? I'm wary jumping into that game as a newfag

It's an inherently shitty genre made up of copy pasted clones so even a mildly fun game is considered revolutionary and amazingly god tier

Extreme difficulty and maximum autism scoring system. It's not recommended for beginners.
>touhou is considered to be the peak of the genre for connoisseurs
Touhou Project games are popular for the characters and the music, not the gameplay, which is inferior to good arcade shmups.

Bullet hells are memes best enjoyed by people with severe autism. Play an actual good game like RayForce/Gunlock, the Gunbird games, the Truxton games, the R-Type series or Darius Gaiden.

It looks fun, but tier lists are 99% subjective. People like what they like, and the more shmups you play, you'll find your own God tier games. Pic related is my personal favorite.

because you're comparing Half the game to full shmups.

Retardo explain why Ketsui and DOJ are more about macro dodging than tiny tapping. Oh wait forgot you never played these games!

Also, the Hyper lasts about 1 second.

Sad!

People like it because it has great aesthetics and music. Superplayers love it because it's extremely hard and the chain-based scoring system is very punishing (if you drop your chain your score is basically fucked, so you need to play perfectly). It means you need to have perfect routing and strategy on the levels and execute it perfectly to get a good score. So there's almost no room for fuck ups if you want to play for score, even more than other games. The second loop also wipes all your lives (in white label, black label changed this) making it extremely fucking punishing because you can't die once in the second loop before stage 5 or so or your run is ruined. But that's a minority of a minority, most people just like it because it
