I don't find touhou fun anymore, just frustrating. What do I do?

>>15030873
Focus on why.

I'm getting close to beating Utsuho on normal, need to figure out how to conserve more lives during stage 5.

>>15031060
Everybody has one of those spellcards that they just suck at. If theres a particular one that you die/bomb a lot on and you really just can't git gud at it, then find other spellcards that give you trouble and master them so you don't waste bombs on those instead.

>>15031060
Stage 5, in my opinion, is harder than the rest of that game put together. I basically gave up on trying to get good at Rin.

My strategy was to perfect the first four stages and have plenty of lives to burn on 5. Okuu isn't even that hard, really; more theatrical than actually difficult, so you should be able to beat her with just a bit of practice. Once you can get to stage 6 with, say, two lives in stock, you're golden.

Where can I find videos or replays of the PC-98 games? I can't figure out Reimu's or Yuuka's patterns for the life of me

Anyone here play Seihou? What should I be doing for SG's extra stage midboss's second attack? I can't seem to find a good movement pattern like most of the rest of the stage has.

I HATE tasofros hitboxes. Holy shit they are so misplaced, misleading and have questionable active frames.

Still waiting for the day ISC2 gets release.

Catching Orins midboss spell on lunatic was the bane of my existence.
I cried tears of joy when I actually did it.

Show your replay please

>>15040111
sorry senpai I never saved a replay, you can look it up on youtube if you need a how-to though

this score system makes no sense
what were they thinking?

>>15039389
It would be great if ISC-type games replaced the photography games from now on, but writing Seija into anything else is pretty much impossible at this point.

I think you guys need a time machine, sadly.

Do you guys use a keyboard to play? I feel as though I could do somewhat better with a game pad

>>15040770
Keyboard's fine, alot of top scorers use it.
If you want to cheat with tech, get a bigger screen.

>>15040770
Honestly, your input device matters less than you might think. I get similar performance from a nice full mechanical keyboard and from a shitty, flat, squished-layout laptop keyboard. As long as you're comfortable with the device and used to using it, it's fine. Switching to a pad will probably make you worse at first because you're switching which hand does what, and you'll have to re-learn your reactions.

I'm this close to beating koishi but
'Subterranean Rose' always gets me

>>15040770
I mainly use keyboard, but I also have a stick. Hori Hayabusa and square gate feel pretty bad for shmups though, waiting on an LS-56 to arrive in the mail.

>>15040819
I have a 27 inch screen, but use windowed because upscaling looks like shit. How bad of an idea is this?

On another note, should we be using this thread or migrate over to >>15032643 and let this one die? Gameplay threads barely get any posters as is, and fragmenting them only worsens it.

>>15042644
>migrate over to >>15032643
Aye, might as well.
