Well, I played it a bit more and I think it would be better if the spirits once spawned, started to come down by themselves, while at the same time they get tinier and tinier (so they give less points/fill the trance bar less), because the current mechanic forces you to always try to "hug the top"... lol.

>an easy solution for that would be: every spellcard you capture adds 1 to the value that blue spirits give, ie +11 +12 +13 +14 +15 etc. even still that still might not overshadow boss grazing the whole card.

I think the only way is to stop bosses dropping spirits during a trance. You would still want to bomb noncards though...

Another thing that bothers me is that even during a trance, it's hard to cash in because enemies still "time out" and don't stop spirits after a second. If it made you get maximum spirits from everything all the time it would feel much more rewarding.

>> No.7235703 [DELETED] 

>>7235657
I think the reverse of your first idea would make more sense. trances shouldn't be popping up nearly as often as bombs. so being able to milk a trance once per bossfight should be fine.

That being said what if only nonspells were boss grazable? That should hopefully solve the problem.

>> No.7235736 [DELETED] 

>>7235703
I think it's too late for that, a lot of spellcards seem set up to be boss grazed, and it's fun trying to do on the harder ones.

Even with fewer trances, you'd still want to expend them on the boss instead of the stage. I am sure later stages will have more valuable scoring points, but there's literally one in the whole demo that's worth doing. And to get it you often have to bomb the hell out of Kogasa. Feels bad.

ZUN should have swapped Marisa's shots for focused and unfocused. The lasers should be her focused shot since they're skinny and tend to miss in their current arrangement. And then the missiles should be a wider shot with a bigger burst area like Sanae's frog shot in UFO.

What I'd really like is multiple shot options for each char, instead of having to go with a new character for a new shot. Two options for each would have been fine, it wouldn't be a big stretch considering he can just copypasta Reimu/marisa needle and bullshit the other two, and everyone would be happy. However if he did that then everyone would still keep only seriously playing as Reimu or Marisa though.. I guess that's why he did what he did.

here are the known bugs from touhou wiki:
When having Youmu Konpaku selected in the Player Select menu, going back to the Difficulty Select screen and to the Player Select again, Sanae Kochiya is selected.
Replays may crash the game at Stage 3.
There appears to be a bug where at some point during the game, a character's bomb cannot be activated and dialog cannot be skipped. Once this occurs on one character (possibly Sanae being the first to trigger this) the rest of the characters have the same issue. This can be solved by exiting the game and reopening it.
Players have reported the game crashing at the very end of Yoshika Miyako's third Spellcard, the likely explanation being that she tries to absorb a spirit to replenish health when she has no health left at the time. This can be worked around by making sure you end the card in between its spirit collecting phases.

Hmm, you might be on to something there.
Still, I don't think a god would be dwelling around in the netherworld so maybe a demon god or someone who thinks she's a god?

She lost her divinity when she came to Gensokyo due to the inhabitants' nature compared to outside world's humans, remember?

She only lost her special status, after moving to a land where everyone is magical. She's still the same.

More like Reimu ravishes corpses as a food source due to her now-invincible stomach.

The replay keeps desyncing half way through each boss, but from what I can see, it looks like the best scoring strategy is to basically spam bombs and trance to to graze whore the bosses.

Wow, it's like ZUN actually tried to come up with a worse scoring mechanic than UFO

trying to get no points at all on lunatic is pretty fun
you get some from non-spell time outs, though.

Well the only one who didn't become a ghoul would be Marisa, except she now has a claw for an arm so she could be a frankenstein witch creature for all we know.

Miyako sure is a lot harder on hard compared to normal That self heal keeps me from defeating her, the time just keeps running out and I can't get close enough to collect the spirits.

Looks like I'll have to try harder.
