The demo for that Kaisendo phantasmagoria is out.https://store.steampowered.com/app/4183180/Touhou_Sousenkyou__Land_of_Oracular_Zeitgeist/
>>51031763Character on the left is alright-looking. The one on the right is fucking abysmal though.
>>51031763Fanshmups always seem to miss the point, but at least its a pofv clone which has some value if the netcode is worth a shit.Directly trying to copy the nu-zun style is just grim, at least try for the old style.
>>51031826Her arms are borrowed.>>51031843>Directly trying to copy the nu-zun style is just grim, at least try for the old style.Agreed, especially considering none of the games in this "series" have ever done that.
PoFV > PoDD > this > UDoALG
>>51033473I like PoDD more than PoFV
>>51033484I like the atmosphere more, but gameplay-wise PoFV just has more variety. And my wife's in it.
>>51031763For a second I thought this was a new official Touhou game and was about to cry.
>>51033530It certainly has a similar level of production value, but given that western hands are touching it, it won't be as good as anything ZUN makes.
>>51033545Have never asked this before, but what would be worst official game ZUN could make
>>51033545>but given that western hands are touching it, it won't be as good as anything ZUN makes.You assume that because?
>>51033553DDC's cast*, UFO's gimmick, HSiFS's music, SA's shots and bombs, playable Sumireko*not a bad cast by any means, but easily the most disconnected and least popular>>51033593I just get a bad feeling when I see western fanworks. There's a higher chance of misunderstanding the source material since most tend to be EOPs. Also a higher chance of memes.
>>51033620>DDC's cast*, UFO's gimmick, HSiFS's music, SA's shots and bombs, playable SumirekoUnironically this is at least more creative than whatever UDoALG was about
>>51033620>*not a bad cast by any means, but easily the most disconnected and least popularDisconnected, sure but how are they unpopular? I mean sure, they aren't on the level of the most popular 2hus, but they're still significantly more popular than anything after LoLK.
>>51033650I should have put UDoALG's plot.>>51033654I never see anyone talk about any of the characters except Wakasagihime and Kagerou.
>>51033620EOP's are definitely a cancer but some of the worst things to ever come into the Touhou collective consciousness came about because of the Japanese. Nothing any EOP has ever done even comes remotely close. Not to say that you're wrong from feeling off when it comes to any western works though.
>>51033620Retard.
>>51033661The twins I get, but you don't see people talking about Seija or Shinmyoumaru? Even ignoring the yuri aspect of things Seija is a relatively popular character.
>>51033669>some of the worst things to ever come into the Touhou collective consciousness came about because of the Japanese.Like what? I'm interested.>>51033684No, I have a friend obsessed with Shinmyoumaru but that's it.
>>51033661>I never see anyone talk about any of the characters except Wakasagihime and Kagerou.I mean you do hear occasionally about Seki or Seija sometimes even Shinmy Though it is true that discussion around Tsukumo sisters is nonexistant. What is worth mentioning is that that has been the case since UFO, even TD's cast doesn't get as much love as they deserve. It's pretty sad when you think about it, I don't really enjoy the newer games but even I can't deny that they have some pretty cool newhus that will most likely never be popular.
>>51033687Like anything you can think of...? It's kind of an open ended question, since there's basically nothing that's breached into the vague idea of a Touhou collective (un?)consciousness that they've ever done beyond making Tumblr OC's that nobody remembers. I don't know what you personally dislike about fanworks but there's a 99.99% chance that it came from Japanese hands. For me personally, I'd say grimshit, which isn't even a singular thing but more of an umbrella of dozens of different things.
It's... alright. I tried every story scenario available, which isn't much. you get three scenarios and get kicked out after the third stage. The whole game feels sedated.
>>51033721NIGGAMU is canon
>>51033721sex with niggamu
>>51031763I played Reimu's story until stage 3, during which the my entire PC screen (even outside the game) went black for a while, then returned and the game window was basically a frozen white screen with the BGM still running. Might try the demo again after some time in case performance improvements come up, but I think I've seen enough in the 20 minutes I played as is. My unpleasant feelings towards phantasmagoria games are still rearing their head in this game as well, so I'll most likely skip the full release.
>>51033721Reimu's a Brazilian
>>51033721Is there a lore reason why Reimu got niggafied? Is it the "Nigga Incident"?
>>51033908The nigga incident was HSiFS when Cirno got tanned.
>>51033721
>>51033721Can you show us the new OCs that are only available in Versus?
Cute!
>>51034050If Rin, Suika, Chen, Aunn, and Satori had a child.
>>51034024I think this is all of them. I still have no clue the point of the secondary character other than story purposes.
>>51034237Why so many weird skin colors lol
>>51034237The right two are from HSoBThe secondary characters are for ex attacks, buffs, and debuffs. If you press shift, it'll tell you.
>>51034277Thanks, that makes more sense. I was expecting to switch between characters in game
>>51033593Westoids cant make anything other than memes
>>51033545>>51034307Good news, It's just one western guy doing the programming and art. The Kaisendo team is doing everything else.
>>51033908just an alt palette
>>51034237>>51034050The redhead sisters look ok if a tad bit generic, there's a reason the Primsrivers all have distinct colors for their hair and clothing, and even then they still struggle to be memorable both as a group and individuallyBee girl's color palette looks like fucking vomit, the colors don't mesh well together at all, design is nothing worth of note
>>51037659I feel like the sisters only exist to add to the main girl's lore or whatever, functionally they're all a single character. That's my take, anyway. I like bee girl's colors, but I feel like her skin should be a lighter shade of brown and her hair hue shifted to yellow. I like her, otherwise. The honeycomb eyes are a nice touch.Sugar Satellite can get hugged and treasured.
>>51031763The one on the right looks dumb.
>>51038297That's not her real arm.
>>51037659I like the idea they were going for with the bee girl the most out of the designs I've seen from this game actually. The softer greens with the browns work surprisingly well, the hexagonal dress and honey staff thing hit the bee aesthetic nicely and especially the multiple layers you can see at the bottom of the dress, but something about it really doesn't work and not just because she's black. I think it's the hair, had, and undershirt all being the same color?>>51034237Also use MAS and get rid of that Window's shit you tard.
