I just beat PCB on normal (Reimu A). This moment has been a month of work in learning how to dodge like a motherfucker. I feel awesome. Must now beat it on hard.

Touhou thread to celebrate.

Wait to see how awesome you'll feel when you beat Ran.

Did you cried after beating PCB for the first time? I sure did.

[Anonymous No.]

I didn't feel that happy when I 1cced MoF Lunatic the first time.

It gives nice bragging rights, though.

[Anonymous No.]

Congratulations! I'd recommend moving on to the other games' normal modes first, as they'll teach you more about dealing with varied bullet patterns rather than just harder versions of what you already know. Extra is also generally somewhere between Normal and Hard, but they're almost all memorization-based, so don't feel bad if you don't do very well the first time around.

PCB in particular is noteworthy in that Yuyuko is the least variant stage 6 boss. You've definitely earned your Normal victory, but when you get to her in Hard she won't have "leveled up" at the same rate the other bosses have. While she's certainly a big threat, she's really not that big a deal compared to the other bosses on harder difficulties.

By the same logic though, she's disproportionately difficult on Easy and Normal, which is all the more reason you should try the other games. You're likely to have a fair bit more success. Whatever you choose to tackle next, good luck, and keep playing! I hope to be beaten by you at PoFV one of these days.

I actually don't really get any thrill out of it until I hit the last spell card. Once that's taken care of I usually don't really care any more.

Lucky. Yuyuko keeps killing me on one of her last three spellcards.

are you okay, anonymous?

You mean last two. Dying on the one before that is unacceptable.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3714061
It was more that I had 5 lives going into stage 6 and I knew I needed way more practice at stage 6 than I had. I got luckier than I should have several times and managed to get through with no lives and only one bomb left. It was mostly the "Fuuuuck I am this close don't die don't die don't die" factor mixed with the "Holy shit I might actually finish this!" train of thought.

As a boss, yeah, butUFO's extra stage is a fucking pain in the ass. Kogasa is harder than Patche.

True, but shes a complete letdown as a boss.

Fuck you OP for succeeding in what I've been trying to do with EoSC for, well about as long as you.
I can't even move to other games before I've seen a good ending for this one, fuck I feel terrible.

I can almost beat Flandre and Ran but I can't even make it past Koishi's 1st spellcard. What the fuck.

On my very first PCB Lunatic 1cc, I died with bombs near the beginning of Resurrection Butterfly, losing my last extra life. I proceeded to dodge the shit out of it, somehow even retaining one bomb. That was...rather thrilling.

Well, Koishi only starts to be really annoying when she starts throwing hearts at you. Before that she's got average extra boss spellcards.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3714226
You just need to find the method, is all. Koishi's the average +/- 0 ex boss I compare the others to. If you can (almost) beat Flan you've definitely got the skill to do it.

>>3714212
Sanae gives me a harder time just because I have an absolutely pitiful record on Rice Shower, where on the other hand I can get cleanly through Kogasa about 1/3 of the time.

Both heart spellcards are deceptively easy. You move left and right between the gaps in a rhythm. The hearts are aimed at your position you see. Her first spellcard involves moving directly in front of her about halfway between her and the bottom of the screen, then moving straight right, then gradually down to the bottom-center in time for the lasers.

>>3714282
Keine, hard? Man, as soon as you memorized her first and third patterns, that's just a free extend.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3714302
Haven't gotten those parts down yet. Maybe that'll change, so mentally place her below Kanako if you want.

Spellcard practice is part of the game. But even then, you get a lot of room for error with all those bombs and extra lives, and various easy spellcards.
