RE: davejohn

It is, you used the album link and not the direct image link.


Here's a SoEW Mima, I wish every day for ZUN to free her from PC-98 hell.



That's it, I'm gonna do what I should have done a long time ago.

I am a weirdo that has really only played a few weird ones (the metroidvania, the mystery dungeon, a horizontal-scrolling one on Switch). I should probably get around to picking a real one to play.... I wish the mainline games were available for something like Switch at least. Or if fans could port them to homebrew 3DS that would be so rad

I am a big fan of Undertale and Deltarune and am very curious about the large touhou influence on those games. I don't think i'm particularly great at bullet hells, but if you were to recommend one place to start for someone wanting to check out the series what would it be?

RE: Lyric Hartwell

Game-wise there's a few good starting points, I'm gonna go with the easy answer everyone does and say Touhou 6 ~ Embodiment of Scarlet Devil. It's where a very large chunk of the big popular references and characters come from, it's not Too hard to be a first game (not easy, but not like LoLK or UFO hard)

After that, honestly just go to whatever seems right for you! Do you wanna go in release order? Do you wanna check out which game a character you like the design of came from? Do you think a specific game's gimmick seems fun? Do you want to check out PC-98? (Please. Please. Please. Please. Please.)


There is the elephant in the room though, which is that Touhou is more defined by fanwork than it is the actual games themselves. The issue is that it is REALLY hard to recommend a "start here!" and line when it comes to that wide web. I'd say check out some IOSYS MVs cause that's what got me and a lot of other people interested in the franchise, but you can also just go straight to drawings of Marisa and Reimu making out sloppy style if you want. There's also fangames but I haven't really checked out many so I don't feel too confident giving any recommendations.


If you end up not really liking the games but enjoying a lot of the fan stuff, don't worry cause that's like 99% of the fanbase LOL.



That's it, I'm gonna do what I should have done a long time ago.

I've never seen a picture or video of ZUN where he isn't drinking beer and I admire that about him

re; lyrichartwell


people will generally say touhou 6, 7, 8, or 10. i will say 8 because that is my favourite. but either one of those 4 is fine. 6 is the most popular and recognizable one if you want to get into it easy, and then just do whatever there's really no actual starting point imo

re; lyrichartwell

considering you do not identify yourself as being particularly great at bullet hells/danmakus:

-touhou 10 is pretty much the easiest in the series, and introduces many systems which are often present in modern releases;

-touhou 8 is pretty accessible in terms of difficulty, and is generally believed to be the best/one of the best in the entire series;

-touhou 17 is a pretty easy modern game feat. achievements

all touhous after 9 are available on steam, the rest are abandonware so if you cant easily get them physically it should be fine to pirate them


:D

re; starlightsparadox
touhou 6 to 8 aren't actually abandonware, they still get sold officially as discs but they haven't been released on steam (apparently zun lost the sourcecode for them but idk if thats for pc98 or what)
