LLS is great. There is a feeling of mysticism in the whole game and the music is dark and catchy. I preffer it over MS by a little bit.

I should really play them again and see if they still make me want to vomit. There's just something about the graphics in those games that makes me physically ill.

I find PoDD isn't bad on the eyes actually. Except for Kotohime's bomb.

everyone Elln best girlll

ok PoDD is my favourite, get it. It's a mesy statement, because the game has an odd aura (what you anons pointed at) that makes me feel weird, and that's not a nice thing. And I love it anyway.

disorientation seemed to be part and parcel of nineties gameplay in general though, with a lot of trial and error backgrounds and such.

>>15452459
PC98 Touhous, Mountain of Faith, and ~2000 era FPS are the only things that made me feel that way. Well Infamous did too at times, due to its color scheme.

Actually the color scheme is the common factor in all those, except maybe MoF where its' something about the patterns as much as their color vs the background.

>a lot of trial and error backgrounds
I don't think I've experienced this except with indie and doujin games. Name some examples.

A few games were experimenting with the new expanded colour palettes and graphics, as I recall mainly in the arcade areas ( which I have clear memories of at the time) and this flew through to the dojin markets as could be expected.

>>15448983

I like Marisa's "date" ending. The place where they went looked like a lake of blood, so it might be the stage 2 area.
I also liked the different clothes they wore depending on what difficulty you finished.
Also, best girl is stage boss, twice.

>>15451676

The only one that makes me sick is Stage 4 of Mystic Square.

>>15453654
I'm almost tempted to play that game on my old B & W TV set connected to my computer to see if it doesn't make me as sick as I was playing that old Tekken arcade game years ago.

She just seems like a hands-on sort of person to me, someone who couldn't stand having anyone else doing their dirty work.

Of course she'd "Beta Test" every new product herself, before giving the finished articles to Nitori and her crew to use/distribute as they seem fit.

I guess it was just with her aggressive attitude, I figured she'd just have too much pride to not announce her works publicly/attribute them to herself.

bur anon, rikako doesn't like to use magic, she even use a jetpack to fly

>>15472503
But she so quickly admitted to being one, and I don't exactly see her using a ray gun or anything for her standard attacks.

>>15471923
I like to think she swipes signage for Sumerekio these days

I started to play Highly Responsive to Prayers, and I've seemed to have run into a bit of an issue. While in menus it seems that on occasion buttons will be pressed twice. An example of this would be when entering my name on the score screen, and press the Z key to end my name it seems to also press Z for the would you like to continue screen which puts me back into gameplay. I don't know if this is an emulation problem, my keyboard, or I'm holding the button too long, but I just want to know if anybody else has bumped into a similar problem before.

So, what are the odds Meira gave up on her quest for power and settled down somewhere, versus her dying in battle after picking one fight too many?

the elder Usami tends to favour throwing street signs around, Kana is often depicted by or using such signs, I put two and two together.

>>15474174
probably retired to Makai I think, still misses Reimu [probably].

Doesn't she really only have beef with Reimu? Or did her quest for power extend past the Hakurei?

Now, Until You Die, still my favorite song in touhou

This thread finally made me create subdirectories for each character in PC-98 games.

Before it was just a mass folder for anything PC-98.

Thanks, I guess.

>>15474693
That's why I was wondering if she just gave up after losing to Reimu, or if her failure set her off to seek more power elsewhere, possibly in the hopes getting strong enough to come back and beat Reimu?

>>15475471
It could be a combination of "fuck this I'm not dying to her", and "I am NOT getting married to her".

>"I am NOT getting married to her"

Which is a shame, since Reimu clearly didn't seem to have a problem with it, and it's an easy in to that power she's after, even if she's not the one directly controlling it.

>>15476570
She left it in no uncertain terms that she finds that sorta thing disgusting, if memory serves.

True, but people have willingly entered into loveless marriages for far less.

Still, good on her for sticking to her principles.

But they're only remembered because they're gone.

ZUN said Mima will return when the time comes at the anime con he went to.

Renko is also looking a lot more like Yumemi in her newer stuff.

Is there anyone else that we can even imagine coming back after them? Maybe Shinki if more Makai bullshit happens? Chiyuri by association with Yumemi perhaps?

she certainly is one of the oddest of the oddballs in the Genesokyo-Makai area code that's for sure.
