Anything will be better than playing B-S. I've said something like that before too, especially since it was a WL run.

Most fun I had clearing was A-L for some reason. You get to pull some stupid bullshit to compensate for the very narrow shot range, and it doesn't matter too much anyways since the main point is being fast and pissing lasers all around. Stage gameplay becomes annoying, but bosses are ez.
>>
>>736554156
I guess my biggest concern would be the back end of stage 5, I've never done that without bomb spam. My goal is ultimately to just beat my pb, nothing ambitious. I'll likely work on it after I wrap up this psyiko kick.

Well you are lucky. I have recorded exactly that, but I was playing as B-L just for fun.

Hopefully still a decent example of routing this section without using bombs or hypers.
Game version is White Label/Arcade Original. Black Label should be easier.

>>736555293
>With shotia I was struggling to really remove targets off the screen quickly enough
Understandable, Shotia's laser does less damage. It's going to be difficult to consistently take down bigger enemies. It bothered me a lot in stage 3 and 5 especially when I played B-S. Stage 4 is where you can save bombs more easily believe it or not, so I turned the stage 5 "routing" into really just bomb spamming starting from the bee nest-like section(after the first midboss) during these attempts.

>The cut throughs after 1:20 look a bit fucked.
Yeah agreed. The funny part is that I usually don't struggle with that section at all, it just happened in the video there and left it like that since I'm more concerned with what came before it.

That shit was great, I loved it. The NG+ was even better. It's no ZeroRanger (a good thing imo) when it comes to the story, more of a normal JRPG narrative, but it's executed very well. Just a pleasure to just shoot things up, and that's the most important part, but there's a lot of skill ceiling with scoring that you must master to grapple with higher difficulties.

That is my favorite part of gaming though. I usually never beat any games because they get too easy once you understand them, so I almost always restart a game after 20 hours or so so I can be weak and struggle again.

It's as much about memorization as any other game that doesn't have randomly generated levels (and even games with random generation have some level of memorization that can differentiate a good player from a newbie)
Guys, Super Mario Bros is just about beating the same levels each time you boot up the game, remembering where the enemies and obstacles are and avoiding them, can't believe one of the most famous games in the world is memorizationslop

Now we're getting somewhere. So you're saying you hate obstacles you can't overcome intuitively. But such obstacles have an incredibly low skill ceiling.
>>
>>736562885
I think you have a very wrong idea of what shmups are
You will for sure lose lives on stuff that will surprise you, and, yeah, those games aren't meant to be beaten on your first try
But shmups aren't just random garbage; there are different reoccurring enemy types most of the time, and unless you're playing on the hardest difficulties, games will let you time to see what each does
So when you see a formation of enemies you know what to do
It is memorization, but it's literally something that you can apply to 80% of video games
>>
What game doesnt require memorization
>>
>>736563076
Sucker punching the player to make them lose until they memorize all the sucker punches is objectively bad design.

>>736562956
They don't though.

>>736562956
>So you're saying you hate obstacles you can't overcome intuitively.
More like I'm not amused by seeing cynical gotcha moments every two minutes, calculated exactly for maximum monetization in a very specific setting. Why put up with that when so many other games exist?
>>
>>736563124
>>736563259
That isn't what shmups are
Unless you play on the hardest difficulties, but if you do that without having played the game normally you're just fucking retarded
When you see videos with a shit ton of bullets on screen with players zooming in between them, it's usually not normal mode; it's people flexing their gameplay on hard difficulties. It's not what you should expect from those games when getting into them
Most of those games aren't baby easy but they're not video game CBT
>>
>>736563168
They do though, what humans can do intuitively is incredibly limited. You can't up the difficulty without introducing learning. Otherwise you just get a casual and BORING nitwit game.
>>
>>736563292
All arcade games are bullshit designed to extract money every two minutes. This isn't a secret and it isn't good game design.

>>
>>736562956
Games like Monster Hunter or just soulslikes also have some "fuck you try again" moments that will ask you to read the enemy to not get caught by
Precision platformers are all about memorization, rhythm games too
What about puzzle games too? Stuff like Tetris or Puyo asks you to memorize, react, and adapt
Are they all shit because of that?
That would make a lot of genres that would be shit because of that :/
>>736563450
Today they're not really a thing anymore, but shmups are still being made, old ones are being ported or/and are emulatable
Money isn't stolen from you anymore; you have all the time you want to get good at the game. No worry to have about that

Monster Hunter has always been shit. Souls games went straight to shit the moment you couldn't intuit them and it became memorization shit. Precision platformers are bad. Puzzle games don't require that, they require you to learn not hard memorize.

I can't get fucking touhou to work even with vpatch on w11 so i don't otherwise konw where to start other than cave titles. I tried to find Blue wish ressurection plus again a few years ago but i think it's gone now.

You might as well play a Dodonpachi game, so you can see what every other bullet hell is trying to be. I know Resurrection is on Steam.
>>
>>736569940
So why not CAVE titles? It's not a lot of information to go off and based around what you play CAVE would be the logical conclusion. Or you can look at other devs like raizing and psyiko. Or play an indie game like blue revolver, which like crimzon is heavily inspired by CAVE stuff. And just so you know, the really cool CAVE games aren't on steam unfortunately, the crazy stuff is locked behind emulation or console m2 ports, so if you've only played their steam games you may get the wrong impression, not that those games are bad or anything.

Yes but I still died more times than the total amount of enemies I killed.
>>
>>736570906
If you play the first stage optimally I think you can max lasers by the first boss if I remember correctly, I did like 1 or 2 speed then beelined for lasers. That should pretty much carry you through 75% of the game without doing anything, it's honestly kind of broken.
>>
>>736561251
You can blind 1CC if you are used to the genre.
I've done that with Touhou games and I suck at shmups, so I can easily imagine better players blinding Cave games.
You must be handicapped if you can't even comprehend that.
>>
>>736571003
The game doesn't seem too bad even without powerups. I was able to die to a late stage boss, lose all weapons, and still kill it with starting laser.

I was never able to do that on a first playthrough Gradius game before.

A more obscure pick would be the eXceed series. The second one is best. It's like Ikaruga, but more fun as a shmup. The other two are fun, they're just not as stand-out.

An alternate mode in Ball X Pit makes the game turn-based https://youtu.be/Ox2ZSewaxdk?t=1060

Post your Physical Shmup Collection. Old fags would never dedicated themselves to Steam. Let's see if you really have a super fan or a tourist
>>
>>736573072
Ball X Pit suffers from a common problem in modern games I like to call "RPG breakaway" wherein the game's internal progression system is such an important aspect of its gameplay that it eventually subsumes the rest of the mechanics and the game becomes reduced to optimal upgrade pathing. Not even optimal, just good enough to survive. This is the type of game design that wins awards in contemporary publications.

I would argue Espagaluda II is the peak just because it's way more forgiving if you know how to manage your power meters and know how to utilize Kakusei correctly. It has tons of depth that has tremendous replay value.

>>736577139
I started on keyboard and like it for the genre. But it seems like a lot of people are using controller?
>>
>>736577305
That's the inferiority complex. You will never play skee ball with a man in your life.
>>
>>736577143
So basically, the less "virile," the better the genre? I got a vasectomy so I'm a shmupfag by default, I guess. I'm not regret.
>>
>>736573334
Yeah it's particularly hard to get a torrent of a bullet hell. I managed to get the series on Steam, but that was so long ago, they aren't even on Steam any more. Blue Revolver is also fun and a lot easier to get a copy of.
>>
>>736577143
I don't care for arcade shooters personally but I do understand how compelling the drive to improve a score or a run can be. I got really into pinball for that reason and ended up on the top 5 for a handful of Williams tables for a while. It's really cool to focus on something and master it.

I never understood how these games were ever successful. If I were at the arcade and some sweaty 30 year old was trying for a 2-ALL, I'd be waiting like 45 minutes for one person to finish. I don't have that kind of time even as a kid.

The genre requires a little RP for me but that is what makes it one of my favorites. The lone pilot making his way through hordes of enemies, You were never supposed to make it this far. These are the only games where I genuinely think "I can't keep dodging!" but I do. Very rare and fulfilling.
