Finally bothered to set up so that my Xbox 360 controller would work with Touhou. I am never doing that again outside of the fighting games if I decide to play them.

Trying to play with that controller caused me to die to Fixed Star. Now that wouldn't be a problem, but I died to Fixed Star 3 times, in the same practice run.

And then I almost perfected Orin on Normal with it, but not the stage. But still, that made me suck more. So no gamepad/controller for me until I get one with a good d-pad. The d-pad didn't even cause me problems with 360 shmups either.

If I die on Suika one more time, I'm going to break something.

EDIT: And PoFV Extra is like eating rusty nails melted together to form one middle finger.

Honestly, these days it feels like I'm half the RAGE thread all by myself.

EX Alice. First run ends on the Cheeto Lasers phase. Second run, I get to the sixth phase with only one derp death on the first, doing well so fa-*clip*

OK, but no-*clip*

All right, serio-*clip*

WHAT THE HELL

It was about that long between deaths, seriously.

Tried some practice runs in EoSD since it's been a while since I last played.

I'm even worse against Patchy now. Nondirectional lasers still suck to have to go against.

I forgot how to capture Illusional Misdirection and Killing Doll.

I keep dying to whatever the stage 4 midboss is called.

I used to be able to get to Remilia on 1 credit, but now I'm going to need to grind practice a lot before I have a chance of 1cc on Hard again.

Scarlet Gensokyo 6 deaths timeout blaaaaaaaaaaaargh.

Had a pretty good Mugetu run going until a coughing fit made me die with two bombs, then bomb two easy dodges.

Urk.

EDIT: I can't believe I didn't screenshot it, but...Anex86 gave me the red error message with STOP a few times. This has been referenced by people before, but it's my first time coming across it. What am I supposed to do? Because it just killed my LLS run.

You have to know there's something wrong when you die to Minoriko's first Spell Card consistently on Normal.

Yeah, apparently pushing to play Touhou when you clipdeath every bullet pattern in the game is not that good of an idea.

Chaotic Phoenixma · « **Reply #939 on:** December 18, 2009, 03:44:25 PM »

EoSD hard. Game overed on Vampire Illusion. Run was pretty much unlikely to clear, especially when I bombed twice on her third card and had to use a bomb on Young Demon Lord before that. Oh, and I arrived at the stage on my last life and had to bomb Eternal Meek.

Continue?

Might as well and see what could have happened if I didn't die twice on stage 3 when I had 3 bombs in stock both time, plus most of Remilia's cards aren't affected by rank IIRC.

Clear the rest while only dying once more.

jc_foster · « **Reply #940 on:** December 18, 2009, 08:03:16 PM »

Ugh, why do I keep dying to Letty's first card on Lunatic?

(I normally don't complain about Lunatic stuff, but I keep getting her under 10% and *then* ramming something....)

I know how that feels. Oh how I know how that feels... Though for me, the worst one was PCB stage 2 Lunatic, and stage 1 to a very slightly lesser extent. Dear god, that insanity was ridiculous T_T I spent 90% of my time while attempting PCB Lunatic on those two stages.

SA Hard is still obnoxious, but those first two stages actually aren't as nasty as PCB Lunatic's were, despite being overall harder.

My head hurts so much... This week I spent at least two hours a day moving stuff from our old house to our new one, and as this was a really friggin cold week now I have a cold and I sneeze all the time. I can't concentrate at all when I try to play.

I want to try HRtP Normal or SA Hard or those Extra stages I unlocked but never played (MoF) or got close to the end (SA).

Game over at Subterranean Sun twice in a row...

I can't believe I even got past 1st stage quickly twice!

First time i reached utsuho with 2 lives... barely reached Subterranean sun
second time i reached Utsuho with 4 lives and i thought OH MAN IM GONNA 1CC THIS SHIT died 2 times to Subterranean sun

not to mention the countless game overs i got at Orin/stage 5 today

Formless God · « **Reply #947 on:** December 19, 2009, 04:06:59 AM »

I failed at Fujiyama Volcano. With only TWO more points to get an extra life.

FFFFFFFFFFFFF-

EDIT : Another run, ended with 2 lives and 645/666 (that is ... three deaths). FV is easier than I thought. Though moving through the slower waves is a bit risky. :V

EDIT : Oh hey it's another TAS ! :V

TheMasterSpark · « **Reply #948 on:** December 19, 2009, 05:16:19 PM »

Since mid-October I've been locked in combat with Touhou Dance Contest, one of Helepolis' Danmakufu scripts. While it is totally awesome in both feel and appearance, it is so god da*n hard to 1cc it on Lunatic without bombing. It consists of 11 sequences (6 cards and 5 non-cards), all of which (or well, most of them, to be fair) are absolutely lethal to make even the slightest little mistake in. I've cleared every single attack repeatedly when singling them out from the script but tackling them all, one after the other, with a total of 5 lives is... freakish. I've gotten myself way too far into it to even think about backing out now though. :V

Helepolis, if you're reading this: did you consider us non-bombers when writing your script?

Edit: Twice have I reached the final sequence on my last life. It's not such a nice feeling to know that you're doomed before even starting.

10 seconds left on GRT...

So close yet so far away...
If I hadn't died on Gengetu's streaming phase with 2 bombs in stock (AGAIN), I would have had enough resources...

GODDAMNIT THAT WAS ALMOST A PACIFIST MUGETSU AND GENGETU AAARRRRGGGHHGHAAHH

Chaotic Phoenixma · « **Reply #950 on:** December 19, 2009, 06:12:32 PM »

I can't get a decent Remilia solo IN Extra run at all. My best is just over a billion.

I blame her crappy hitbox. It has got to be the biggest one in the game.

Edit: Just game overed on Xu Fu's dimension on a solo Marisa run. Stupid familiars.

After you get a no death/no bomb timeout of GRT, do a no death, no bomb, no focus timeout of Boundary of Life and Death.

Of course I can capture GRT!

Spoiler:

I think you misread my post. I honestly don't think it's humanly possible to capture this thing.

Did some calculations. GRT takes 36 seconds to finish. Dying and bombing gives you around 4 to 5 seconds of invulnerability.
This means that the minimum amount of resources I should have at this moment would be 2/2 with maybe 1 second of actually dodging the attack.
Had 2/0 on my last attempt. ;_;
Anyone know the exact invulnerability time for dying and bombing? I need to look into this if I want to milk the maximum amount of time out of my resources.
Also discovered something usefull: Gengetu's final phase is completely static based on rank. This means that you can just memorize a path through.

Um... Wait, it's actually necessary to do that? =/ If I'm remembering correctly, it was rather easy to do anyway... Or does it become a lot worse at max rank?
