Do we have any people, who actually started with Highly Responsive to Prayers?
>>51278784I did. It's one of my favorites despite sucking at it.
>>51278784We need another mainline Touhou in the HRtP style. Hell, why haven't there been any fangames like HRtP?
>>51279076There's Demon Slayer Akagi but I haven't tried it out.
I have a very specific autism where I MUST start a game series from the first entry and play them in release order, so yes, I did start with Highly Responive.
>>51279167What did you think of Grand Theft Auto?
>>51278784I wanted to get into touhou, and I knew there were games, and I didn't take the fact that I had to emulate a PC9800 as a sign that it was not for me.I only heard later that the canon starts in the windows games.HRtP is really creative and the music slaps.
>>51279167Same here. That's autistic? I thought it was just common sense, unless the game was on FM Towns or Hyperscan or some shit.
>>51278784I did, I played the games in order so I started with HRtP. Out of all the games I think this one has the most replayability, I still find myself playing it from time to time.
>>51278784Yes. Back in 09, when I finally decided to play the games, I played them chronologically. But only because the older games were easily available.
my friend played all the PC98 games in order before dropping the series. he never even tried EoSD
>>51285770Filtered
>>51285770Same but I did tried EoSD, afterwards I already moved on to something else.
>>51278784yes, but it's not worth it. the game is not very good (very random and easily cheesable to the point of boredom if you figure out scoring). its only redeeming quality is the music. soew is the true touhou 1 but honestly lls is the first game that's actually good and consistent with how the rest of the series.
>>51285770Give it a try
>>51291343I don't really even like Touhou 2, to be honest. It has very cool visuals, with weather and whatnot, and great music of course. But I find the patterns and bosses aggressively unfun. Love 3,4, and 5 though.
>>51278784Me. This was my first introduction to the series. I installed a PC98 emulator, played the game for one evening, and then installed EoSD because I wanted to play a classic danmaku. After that, I never returned to it.
>>51278784>>51278801>>51279076>>51279167>>51279756>>51279984>>51280588Very COOL to find a high number of such comments, all the Touhou fans I have stumbled upon around the Internet are Windows-onlies who probably skip anime intros and don't pick the receipt when the cashier hands it over.I played all games back in 2010, from HRtP through Ten Desires. Beat them all in Easy Mode cause I just wanted to get a proper taste of Touhou.Danmaku is fun on paper, but not in practice. HRtP remains my favorite, I went back and beat it 1CC'd on Normal just to pay respect.Then I decided to grind for 1CC EoSD, took me a month, and after that I maybe tried PCB for a week before getting bored.It's too much memorization and exploiting foreknowledge before you actually get naturally good at dodging.I do like Ikaruga, though.
