It's a pretty big difference.

Licensing Good Smile to make figures of ZUN's characters doesn't affect the canon. Putting these characters in a setting that is parallel to the original (i.e. another video game) makes this a dicey proposition. There is lore involved here. You can't say fanon because this is an official work licensed by ZUN to another company. Meaning he is giving them the rights to manipulate established canon, at least within the constraints of the Lord of Vermillion universe.

The implications are even further reaching. Once he has set a precedent that ANOTHER production house has the rights to use these characters and become co-creators in future continuity, how long is it gonna be before he passes the baton to a company that doesn't give a shit about the Shanghai Alice legacy. I certainly wouldn't put it past the hubris of any of the CAPCOMs and NAMCO/BANDAIs to think THEY know better than ZUN.

Every time a publisher picks up an indie game it goes to shit over night. They instantly abandon everything that fans loved about the series and redo everything to appeal to the lowest common denominator, to get more sales, to get more money. This is like a law of nature. It happens Every. Single. Time.

I don't know anything about Lord of Vermillion, but it sounds like it's a card game, and I don't think card games devote any effort into setting up lore for the cards. I'd imagine they're just using the likeness of the characters, and put some numbers on it. Though, again, I've never seen LoV, so I'm not exactly sure if that's true or not.

Yeah. I thought it was fake at first, like if the website the OP linked was something like Kotaku where you can put whatever text you want into the link. Nope, this is apparently real.

I'm not going to get too worried about it yet. It's a horrifying trend to start, yes, but I'll only start worrying if there's no integer Touhou game in 2013. The integer games (at least, starting with EoSD; I haven't looked at the release dates of the earlier games) come out every year or every other year, with a demo in April and release in November. TD came out in 2011, nothing came out in 2012, so we're due for a new game in 2013. The fighting game doesn't count.

If there's no new integer game in 2013, THEN the series will have undergone an unprecedented slowdown, and I'd be scared as fuck.
