Why does Touhou attract players otherwise interested in gacha games, Western indie games, WRPGs and first-person shooters instead of fans of retro and arcade games? Is it dumbed down compared to other PC shoot-'em-up offerings?
>>729850961I'm not completely sure.It's just a sub-par bullet hell game. like you take games like Batsugun or Do-Don Pachi but where those games have amazing art.. Touhou has really fucking terrible artwork.Touhou music is quite good.. but so is the music in many bullet hells.So that leaves me with the anime girls instead of fighter ships..Just the fact that it has anime girls for gatcha losers to identify with seems to be the pull. those sorts of people never cared about gameplay to begin with.
>>729850961It doesn't? Mods on 4chan have created an echo chamber on /v/ by forcibly shitting up discussion for it, and other topics they do not like. The CP spammer that targets 2hu threads has similiarly targeting threads criticizing moderation, so it's likely just some tyrannical little asshat janny doing it while churning out 400 fallout threads a day. Pretty much everywhere else on the internet it's not like this.Like this guy >>729851514Has never played a shmup in his life.A distinction here is: when I go to the regular big catch-all shmup discord everyone is normal and playing and discussing games, including 2hu, but the if you sift through a bunch of shitty super specific usecase servers eventually you're gunna stumble upon some deranged 2hu groomercord, but that's just doujin culture in general.
>>729850961Bullet hell is a modern genre explored by CAVE during the post golden-age of arcade shmups, and Touhou took inspirations from that.The genre is in a realm of arcade game sure, but it's still a PC game that took inspirations from subversion of arcade shmups before that scene died, so it's hard to call it "retro".
>>729850961The majority of Touhou fans enjoy the lore, music and porn. It helps that ZUN doesn't give a fuck about fangames which opens door to more fans who dont really like bullet hell.
>>729850961It attracts indie game fans because people just tack the IP characters onto literally every game.
>>729851828>It doesn't?No you're wrong. I'm right.-Touhou has non-bullet hell 3rd party games with much higher quality production than the actual games-Touhou has anime shit and an over abundance of internet culture fanstuff-Touhou has a ridiculous amount of Porna vast majority of its fanbase know it from these things.this is not the case with the more respectable bullet hell games. The fans of those games are drawn in by their mechanics and nature as arcade titles. almost no one is making porn of the ships fucking, or anime fanfic shit.
>>729850961If it exists, there's touhou fangame of it

>>729850961Touhou is what got me into bullet hell arcade games though. When I able to clear a bunch of games on Lunatic I got into stuff like Mushihimesama and other obscure autistic shit.
>>729852120>loreAs somebody who hasn't looked into it, what does Touhou lore have to offer? All I've ever done is skim through the endings, and it seems like all the "story" is just set up so that another game can happen and you have a reason to go through six stages again. Not really for the purpose of worldbuilding.
>>729850961>gacha games, Western indie games, WRPGs and first-person shooters instead of fans of retro and arcade gamesThe first group of player types outnumbers the second over 1000 : 1That isn't a joke>umamusume downloads, japan only: 23 million+>owners of Crimzon Clover on steam; 100k-200k estimated by steamspy
>>729852227>this is not the case with the more respectable bullet hell gamesThe best shmups players in both the east and the west absolutely love touhou, hate to to break it to you.>almost no one is making porn of the ships fucking, or anime fanfic shitYagawa, the creator of battle garegga, when offered one last chance to direct a shmup unsupervised, decided to make a game about chubby pig women that constantly yell sexual innuendo as you get power ups. MOSS, the creators of Raiden, decided to make a game where you shoot the clothes off teen girls as their swansong shmup.
>>729852347There's tons of additional lore in books, manga, soundtracks and stuff. Then there's countless fanon interpretations
>>729852227>doujin game series has doujin derivative works
>>729852026>it's hard to call it "retro"Half-Life is older than the Windows Touhou games, but resembles the average modern video game more. All are different genres, but it's hard to deny that Touhou has more in common with Mega Man than Half-Life. But there's more overlap with Half-Life players. I'm going to assume it's because of its cast's ability to appeal to even non-gamers and because of it's PC exclusivity.
>>729852740This is an insanely retarded post and you should go back to whatever hole you crawled out of
>>729852026Actually, Touhou mutated into a bullet hell game starting out from an Arkanoid-like. You can see the evolution from 1-4, and it only started aping CAVE when it turned out CAVE's games were the blueprint to a good SHMUP.
it's kinda funny to me how touhou is the face of shmups now basically
>>729852818Why so anon? Touhou is absolutely retro-leaning in design.
>>729852917No toaplan game has a pattern like that
uhhhh idunno man touhou to me always seemed to nab a variety of players due to how flexible the fandom is glory to the CCP
>>729852917retro games had good art.usually really high quality crisp pixel art to compliment the gameplay.
>>729853291Dodonpachi looks like shit like 75% of the time though, Daioujou is when CAVE starts making games that look really nice. Also, touhou actually does look kind of good, on a CRThttps://youtu.be/1cbQ4v6bFKQAnd similiarly, the new games are a lot crisper because they aren't designed for a CRT
>>729852984It still has more DNA from older gaming than modern. Of course it's not one-to-one, it's still a modern game. But its design is built on the foundations of retro games, a foundation which modern games have mostly detached themselves from.>>729853291It varies, don't forget that retro games encompass Atari games as well. Xevious is also a shmup and isn't very pretty. The art style isn't very important in discussing the roots of the game's mechanics.
>>729853527The roots come from ZUN being a massive pedophile and attracting a fanbase who was into fucking kids.
>>729852831Touhou 1-5 is just ZUN learning how to program thoughThere's a reason why he rebooted the game from 6
>>729853527>It still has more DNA from older gaming than modernNo it doesn't. Touhou is an incredibly forward thinking and gimmicky series.
>>729850961idk I just wanted to dodge the dots while listening to great music and unexpectedly fall in love. No classic arcade SHMUP ever did that for me
>>729853615The game can be forward thinking and gimmicky will still having a retro framework. It's still a modern game, after all, and I'm not claiming an intentional pastiche of older games.
>>729850961ERTMMMM Mork LOVED 6 akshually
>>729853828>a retro frameworkYou keep regurgitating buzzwords you don't understand. Retro itself is already a functionally useless word to begin with, which is why we refer to shmups by era, and touhou is not built on golden era shmups. The only connection to this era is that ZUN used to code monkey for Taito, which if you don't know about Darius and Rayforce, Taito makes very presentation oriented shmups, especially when it comes to music. Touhou 6 is made after he leaves Taito and the difference is obvious.
>>729853527Your term of "older gaming" is vague, it's a very surface-level analysis of the genre.I literally explained that Tohou can't be retro as it's a genre developed from subversion of arcade shmups, if you don't get it, work your way up from Konami/Capcom shmups, Toaplan to CAVE.Just because it's a top down 2D auto-scroller game, it doesn't automatically make it into the category of "old gaming". Especially when modern shmup is still a thing outside of Touhou.
>>729854175I'm speaking about video games as a whole, in which retro design is generally distinct from modern regardless of genre. While you can divide shoot-'em-ups themselves, that doesn't change that most are still retro leaning. You would have to fundamentally change how Touhou works in order to make it purely "modern". >>729854375My claim is not that Touhou is retro, but that it has more in common with retro games than modern, thus, going back to the original point, making me wonder why plenty of its audience is uninterested in older video games.>developed from subversion of arcade shmupsWhich is building on top of "retro" video games. Take a look at a video game like Metal Gear Solid, which was released in the 90's, but already sheds "retro" game design and introduces modern ideas.

>>729854845Sexy kids
>>729854716whats the name of this?
>>729850961Because the appeal of Touhou is the characters, not the gamesanyone who is actually invested in the shmup genre knows Touhou games are mediocre as hell compared to what the genre has to offer and that the series lives on solely through fanworks dedicated to the characters
>>729854827This game is unironically just awful
>>729854619>My claim is not that Touhou is retro, but that it has more in common with retro games than modernMy claim is that it has more in common with modern shmups than retro shmups, so even if one got past the hoops of secondary doujin works and all the porn and actually get into the gameThey'd naturally gravitate towards modern shmups than anything retro, why the fuck would anyone want to feel like playing Megaman or Punch-out after liking Touhou?>Which is building on top of "retro" video gamesevery modern adventure games are built on top of Super Mario

>>729855410who told you that? VV is one of the best JRPGs ever
>>729855474contrarian /smtg/gers
>>729852831Touhou didn't ape Cave, ZUN always admitted that his main inspiration was Battle Garegga, as well as Kiki Kaikai. Touhou doesn't really play like a Cave shmup.>>729854981>anyone who is actually invested in the shmup genre knows Touhou games are mediocre as hell compared to what the genre has to offerHell no, Touhou games are incredibly solid shmups. They keep it simple and focus entirely on danmaku patterns, which makes the gameplay feel more pure. They also focus on survival more than scoring, with more sophisticated difficulty scaling than anything Cave ever made, which is cool. I'll take Touhou (especially the early Windows games) over most of the genre.
>>729855153I'm satisfied enough with your answer. I still think modern shoot-'em-ups are on their own lineage separate from mainstream modern gaming though. But I can see why retro is a faulty term for it.But as for Mario, I'd say the shift in the focus in the gaming industry can still be seen when you compare the older games to the new ones they've made, which have all been multiplayer focused. Even the original Nintendo Mario games slowly made lives less and less important.
>>729852240>and other obscure autistic shitName one (1)
>>729855474>one of the best JRPGs everSo like a 2/10 VN with padding
>>729854972marisa of liartop mountain
>>729855525>Touhou didn't ape CaveZUN has stated that the games were inspired by CAVE many, many times, and the games even have direct references to CAVE. Touhou pulls from a huge library of shmups and there's nothing wrong with that. Like there are entire spell cards ripped straight from CAVE bosses. And CAVE borrows stuff from touhou too.
I thought the new captcha was supposed to stop bots
>>729854827I can't believe I got tricked by a friend into buying this shit
>>729855153>every modern adventure games are built on top of Super MarioYou mean Legend of Zelda. Zelda became the template for all action adventure. Super Mario wasn't even the first breakthrough side scroller. That was Defender.
>>729856005You just know this nintendie is the spammer
>>729855538>modern shoot-'em-ups are on their own lineage separate from mainstream modern gamingThat I agree, shmup is a weird genre that exists solely by itself.It's probably the reason why Touhou doesn't create a pipeline for non-shmup retro games, you either continue diving-in to the shmup rabbit hole or fuck off back to your old comfort game
>>729856005>You mean Legend of Zelda. Zelda became the template for all action adventureHydlide was the template that Zelda itself followed.
>>729856005I only meant it as a way to express that just because a game is built on top of a retro game, it doesn't make it retro, because every game can be reduced down to "game built on top of a retro game", technicality is irrelevant
So are mods ever gonna do anything about this
>>729856394Well, the spam went from images to catbox links to now just strings of text, so they probably are doing something.
>>729856394Mods are doing "things" in real time, but you cannot combat unlimited proxies now can you?
>>729856241Which was in turn inspired by Ultima. But at a certain point you pinpoint the game in history that brought it all together and made it work. And that is basically Zelda. Everything before was an 'attempt' at the action-adventure platform.
>>729856394They don't want otaku stuff on /v/, they won't do anything unless they absolutely have to, this is helping them.
>>729856132This checks out >>729856341I wonder why tendie has a beef with 2hu
>>729856394That fact that just posting about a video game is making someone cope and seethe to this extent is delicious.
>>729856482Good job retard.
>>729854827Unironically the best dungeon crawler in a while, Atlus should be ashamed.

>>729854827Potemki does really nice pixel art
>>729854827The only thing bothering me so far is how hard it is for lower level units to keep up with the newer ones in terms of levels. Even sacrificing super high levels doesn't give that much exp.
>>729856873Not even close dude, get higher standards
sucks that a thread with actual discussion about video games is getting spammed, instead of e-celeb or rage bait thread
>>729857028>Doesn't mention anyGo on, go ahead and i better not hear some retarded shit like Demon Gaze or Mary Skelter.
>>729850961Touhou games attract pathetic faggots that like to cosplay their favorite female character https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeSVa7syD7E
>>729857085That's why it's getting spammed. This us what /v/ is now and it's why mods sat here and watched this guy make posts like >>729857027 constantly until he finally sperged out and posted something illegal. All the posts were chain deleted, the IP never changed. They just sat there knowing full well what would happen. This could have been addressed over an hour ago. And they won't stop him either, they'll just stop images from being posted killing any chance of OC and go back to spamming bethesda threads.

All mainline Touhou games are RPGs. You have a role. You play it. It is a game.
>>729857634This is a thread about Touhou's mass appeal, discussing spin-off games based on it is very much on-topic.
>>729857215>12:30>white guy with fake tits
>>72985777567 hours bro. This isn't reddit, I'm not gunna pretend like you don't have to play shmups to be a touhou fan. Its not unreasonable to expect someone to 1cc a single touhou game on normal as a bare minimum. I could 1cc the whole fucking series in 67 hours, its not a very demanding difficulty.

Is crossdressing the ultimate form of gatekeeping?
>>729860838Why does it concern you so much though, focusing on fans of anything is shit for projecting kiwipedos with their own insecurities
Speaking of Cave, this game is fucking amazing, and everyone should play it. The visuals are the highlight, this is what I imagine Cave would've made if they didn't stop developing shmups 15 years ago. When Mork and Boghog talked about a hypothetical perfect shmup for beginners, this is what they imagined.I only wish it was more difficult, but it was designed for newfags specifically.https://store.steampowered.com/app/2877170/TouHou_Makuka_Sai__Fantastic_Danmaku_Festival_Part_III/

Just a reminder that there's an entire touhoutroon subreddit where they groom men into becoming trannies. You cannot get worse than that.
>>729851514Touhou has beautiful bullet patterns, other games usually don't.
>acts like a troon>gets called a troonI dunno. What do you think?
>>729860838I loved 2hu as a teen but I swear the fanbase is the most autistic, non verbal, retarded, porn addicted group of fucking morons I have ever seen. Between twitter trannies, the /v/ 2hu threads that are full of discord troons(not even counting the pizza spammer here mind you) and the retards at /jp/ that have been posting 2hu fetish threads for more than a decade, my disdain for them is indescribable. They only consume 2hu and plan to only consume 2hu for another decade. They are autismos that can only repeat their routines forever, regardless of if it's good for them or not. If they consumed 2hu before, they must keep doing it forever, even though the games have been complete garbage for a while. I am especially mad because of how bad 19 was. Any other dev would have been crucified for delivering such an unfinished piece of shit, but since it's ZUN and no one plays the games anyways it gets a pass.
>>729861274>all the way into your thirties and forties?they're already all 40+
>>729861274>Guise look at how bad humanity is *shows picture of India*Also congratulations you watch trans porn I'm glad you're starting to accept who you are more Also the games change a lot but I would not count on an unintelligent gooner like yourself to notice
>you watch trans pornI agree that touhou conventions are no different from that.

I bet you think women going to work is a good thing!Your definition of pedophilia is so twitter feminist tier your cry about random shonen slop including a scene of exaggerated breasts bouncing on a 16 year old japanese girl because you think that's a child.You don't have sex, yet believe pornography will turn you into trannies. What you're gaining from this remains unknown because you spend hours spamming ms paint neckbeards at each other.You're like 23 at this point but still believe you're a child. 4chan used to be a bunch of underage larping as adults, now you're adults larping as kids, curious?You unironically believe that you, the nearing 25 adult male can be groomed by Discord trannies.You guys are basically the second most embarrassing chan splinter culture ever created behind MLP. And you know why 4chan doesn't care about lolifags? Because they're fucking drawings. They aren't real and the lolifags aren't criminals until, guess what, they actually commit the crime of pedophilia or possess actual 'P as you call it!If you're going by the Eugenical approach that people having the disgenic trait of being attracted to pre-pubescence should be purged from the gene pool, Alright sure I can agree with that.But niggers, you yourself are pretty disgenic so who are you to make that call? You would be in the gas chambers with the pedos and the trannies I reckon.

>>729864076>tumblr
>>729864239as far as I know all the "tag your pomegranates as gore" level psychos went to twitter/bluesky years ago after the porn ban, and its userbase actually improved
How do I beat EoSD on normal? I've been trying for 10+ hours and can't do jt
>>729863027The Sharty is a cesspit full of actual pedos though
>>729864334Put on a dress maybe it'll help
>>729864326>its userbase actually improvedIt's the same shit, just slower.
>>729863027Your entire administration was and still probably IS a grooming gang which is why there is a mandate to larp as an underage to draw in underage.You faggots also had a mental breakdown over big fat anime tits. You can't say shit and will never recover from how gay this looks.>Nicado's fat Inflation fetish homosexual ass and balls good, funny :)>Big fat anime tits bad, Tranny >:(
>And then - unsurprisingly Jobku had lost a third time to me. 3-0! 3 wins, 0 loses. I see you can't help but laugh at such pathetic MC, miss Flandre.
Mokou WON
The shmups games are the least important part of the Tohou fandom. Tohou is full of yurikino doujin works, and the Chinese in particular seem to make TONS of RPGs where you play as one of the tohou fairies.
>>729850961Touhou is ultimately just a platform for expression by the way it's designed (though few in the west fully experience it since only Japan has plenty of conventions and a wealth of untranslated fanworks), it just happens to be attached originally to some shmups designed to show off ZUN's music so people try them out of curiosity. Some like em, some don't.
>>729864608>Tohou is full of yurikino doujin worksNow THAT's troonhou.
I'm gonna wank to youkai ladies then I will play a better shmup.
>>729864608>and the Chinese in particular seem to make TONS of RPGs where you play as one of the tohou fairies.Elaborate.
>>729852153What game is that?
>>729865207touhou dystopian
Shinki drawing
>>729866523Why do you draw everyone with big tits?
>>729866640Not him, but I've always felt that some 2hu's are boobhu's and some are not and it all depends on whether it suits the design and personality of the character.I'm not a fan example, of Okuu having cow tits because it results in people shrinking the demon eye to make it work.China? Yuugi? All perfectly acceptable to be cows.
hi friends
>>729850961>Why does Touhou attract players otherwise interested in gacha games, Western indie games, WRPGs and first-person shooters instead of fans of retro and arcade games?im interested in none of those things metioned its just gay autism
When do you guys think shartypedos will finally get arrested?
>>729867304I'm not your friend you troonhu freak
because most of the "fans" don't actually play the games, just like gotcha games. go to /jp/ if you want to know what this game's "fans" are like
I got into Touhou from playing picrel and listening to the music.I have never played the SHMUP games and don't intend to.
>>729862774>paranormal creatures from all over the world reimagined as cute girlswoah! what a groundbreaking idea!
>>729867567you are my friend because i decided sosorry you cant refuse im almost done with shoot the bullet but suika is filtering me
>>729867752>someone does somethingwoah! what a ground breaking idea!
>>729863501most trannies ARE pedos though so they can't all be straight
>>729867847Are you ok bro?
talk about touhou instead of gay pedo stuff plz
>>729861446Pretty much. Fanbase is complete cancer. It's also one of the most secondary fandoms imaginable. Not even just people not playing the games, but people outright ignoring canon in favor of fanon.
I think most Touhou fans don't give a fuck about the games and just like the characters and the songs, and if they play games it will be fangames and not the real onesWhich kinda sucks because they're alright shmupsYou're too good, thinking that even half of Touhou's fanbase care about the gamesI like Touhou because I like shmups, if it was a genre I didn't care about I wouldn't know anything about it beside what I'd learn throught osmosis
>>729868185>but people outright ignoring canon in favor of fanon.I've beaten half a dozen Touhou games and I couldn't even memorise the names of the characters, let alone anything about their lore.
>>729868357I mean, the lore is kind of mweh if viewed as a whole. Some very good ideas, but a lot of awkward retcons that would make game workshop and Blizzard blush combined with a mostly unlikable cast.
>>729867685I would get into touhou if its' fans weren't too fucking gay
>>729866640I love big tits
>>729868475i don't remember any retcons during golden age, we don't talk about post-12 touhou
>>729868029It's impossible to discuss 2hou on /v/ as long as there are shartyniggers spamming their shit
>>729868591Human village changed pretty drastically between PCB prologue and Perfect Memento.
>>729868612Just ignore it. Or use filters. 4chan was never a hugbox, you always had to deal with things on your own to some extent.
>>729868612It's impossible to discuss cause there is nothing to discuss. Any actual talk about ambiguity of the lore or the characters gets lost in a sea of everyone accusing each other of headcanons.
>>729868185Fanon is such dogshitCharacters are 1 line, based on 1 thing they said in a game or in a meme that now will forever be their thingSame for relationships, Cirno and Seija are apparently besties because they had 1 line in 1 game that didn't even insinuate anything but that's how it is now I guessOr sometime it's whatever, where does Reimu being a greedy and lazy asshole even comes from?
