About movement speeds...

[TheMasterSpark]

Hello,

Am I wrong when I say that the player movement speed in PoFV is generally (a lot) faster than in the other games? In comparison to Sikieiki (my fave), every type of Reimu and Marisa in any other Touhou game move with the same grace as an ox would, and this frankly sucks when playing on Lunatic. Sluggish movement won't let me use my reflexes as much as I'd like to.

 

Seriously, Siki moves like a scalpel when compared to any non-PoFV character. I would get such a huge leg-up if she was available as a player character outside of PoFV.

Discuss and agree, please.

I don't think that there's a noticeable difference in their movespeeds.. but mind you, I'm a bit used with certain ships in certain shmups too :p (Judgespear slave, Dangun Feveron's cat)

anyways, Yuka's fun and challenging to play with (in a score run) due to her low speed, and against Medicine, most people are expected to play unfocused most of the time :p

Maybe it's because the screen's smaller?

Reimu 3 in SA (Aya). It's like you're on steroids you move so fast.

Although I'm not sure about them moving generally faster or slower or something (poFV has a fair amount of variety), it does have some really weird movement speeds.

Like Sakuya's speed that doesn't change when focused vs unfocused.  D:

Dodges?  We don't need no stinking dodges!

I think you mean Cirno.

I think you mean Cirno.

It's possible.  It's been a while since I've booted up PoFV.

Both Cirno and Sakuya move about 3/4 as fast focused as opposed to unfocused, while others tend to hover around 1/2 region (some go as slow as 1/3 or so).

And then there's Youmu.

(I'm pretty sure Sakuya slows down more than Cirno when focused.  I wouldn't even be able to tell if I'm focused or not with Cirno if it weren't for the visible hitbox and scope)
