I don't see (m)any TPDP threads on here, let's change

I never really understood why it's on /vp/ myself. I haven't played it, although I've been strongly considering it.

>>15609074
Yeah, I thought I heard something once about /vp/ trying to run off TPDP threads, and I kind of get it. They make more sense being made on /jp/.

>>15609080
I've suggested them making the threads in /jp/ a few months before, but apparently /jp/ (or so I'm told) doesn't like TPDP threads either, though /jp/ is less hostile. There used to be a huge clamour concerning the presence of TPDP threads in /vp/—some fag even whined about it in /qa/ before—but it seems that the commotion has subsided now, if not completely abated. However, with the frequent waves of official leaks you shouldn't expect the threads there to stay up long anyway.

>>15609125
True, way too much hype surrounding the new Pokemon games to keep anything else going there.

>>15609125
>>15609033
Why not just make a thread on /v/? I've seen and participated in TPDP threads on /v/ before. They weren't too bad.

>>15609180
Well, the thead's up, so what may as well discuss it here.

I wish PDP had some cameo characters like Puppet Play 1.8 did. Nothing ridiculous, just characters from stuff ZUN was involved in, like VIVIT and Isami Asama.

>>15609253
Yeah, that would be neat.

>>15609180
It's not consistent. The last time a thread was posted in /v/ it was completely hijacked by shitposters halfway through.

With Pokemon Go and the new Gen 6 leaks taking over /vp/, here is probably the best place for this at the moment.

>>15610397
Quite a bit. The game is at version 1.103 and has had multiple balance passes, as well as a lot of bugfixes and minor QoL changes.

Is doing a solo run of shard of dreams feasible at all?
Trying to think of interesting challenge runs or ways to get more content out of the game until the full TL patch arrives
Debated solo-ing with Orin cause moxie but quad water weakness is kinda shitty

Translate the expansion now please.

How do you transfer your previous game's save into the expansion? The option to continue is grayed out.

>>15612346
>>15612406
It hasn't happened up until now, so it ain't gonna happen at all. That much should be obvious.

That being said, does it have a speed up function yet? I don't have enough time in my life for a grind based game that ma makes me wait 5 seconds before every encounter.

christ I'm in a bad way

though I see why I didn't go rest; my Kogasa is still at 100

>>15613854
There are literally only 5 parts of the game left out of like 22.

If that's not far in, I don't know what is.

For the record, I haven't really been grinding.

>>15613857
yes using walkthrough in this extremly hard game is needed haha

>>15613884
It's really only SDM and I don't blame him.

Like SDM is not a hard area. My Kogasa steamrolled literally everyone and thing in the way without taking any damage, but the layout of the place is deliberately fucked. I wandered it for far too long before giving up and checking out a map.

>>15609074
There was always a TPDP thread up on /v/ until someone complained enough to get it moved to /vp/

>>15613884
I remember the original game upon release was insanely hard. Did that change? I think the biggest wall was SDM.

>>15613894
I think the biggest wall is the first parts of the game.

It IS hard. It's UNFAIR how hard it is. After a while you'll get better stuff but it's CRUEL at the start. Especially Reimu. Reimu seems impassable at first.

The game also loves to pull bullshit on you in favor of the enemy. It can get annoying.

>>15613890
i bet you dont beat bamboozling thicket by yourself
i bet you dont went to baku zone either

>>15613901
I cheated the thicket, yes.

No regrets. I'm not playing these things for puzzles.

Is the expansion actually stand-alone? Or does it incorporate the original game? As far as I can see I installed them in two different folders, but I don't remember ever starting the expansion .exe.

>>15613924
>does it incorporate the original game
Yes, and changes quite a few things.

It's not exactly "separate".

Like, the story is a bit different, there are a few new areas, the LoLK cast is in, and there are gameplay adjustments.

>>15613933
I see. So the original is obsolete then?

>>15613941
Debatable.

I mean, I don't know HOW the story changes, for example. But sure, if you know Japanese or are willing to use a text hooker you should probably be fine with just playing the expansion.

Being a completionist, I found Hakurei Cave to be more nightmarish than SDM. Halfway in, I decided to just book it to the exit instead of searching for every item.

Between this game and Touhoumon Purple, which do you think is better? Of course, ignoring the setting, since both games don't seem to offer much in this direction. I'm mainly talking about mechanics, balance and variety.

>>15614797
PDP, easily.

>>15614797
>Of course, ignoring the setting, since both games don't seem to offer much in this direction.
I dunno, I'd say Purple's got it beat. Emerald isn't anything amazing, but PDP is just "dick around in Gensokyo" from start to finish.

Is there some patched, expanded, translated DL around anywhere?

>>15613941
Yes. The only thing it has over the expansion is an English translation.

Is there a Name Rater in this game?

I sort of want to replace Chen and Rumia with somebody else since I almost never use them because I need to make sure they faint in battles so they get half exp so that they won't easily outlevel the rest of the team. This makes me sad.

Rei'sen is the star player here. Outspeeds virtually everything and hits absolutely brutally. Satori was a pain, though, since it pretty much inevitably came down to a speed tie between mine and hers.

It definitely feels way too easy to level up, though. Even running away from everything I don't want to seal, I just can't stop being at least 10-15 levels above every mook trainer around.

Been working on a solo run, with lunachild. Decided to go speed style and things have been relatively smooth so far. Bout to go head to suzuran fields, and my Luna is lv.66

so far the only trainers I have trouble with were Aya at tengu village and Kanako, the latter was actually not doable, her kanako one shots me and I do nothing to it. Glad it's an optional fight cause wow

wow it was really shocking to me to find a game that is even more shallow and have so small of varietry than pokemon
>everything learns rapid spin
>no way to block it
>spin works on protect
>everything learns taunt
>shitloads of types that mean there are no good offensive types or defensive types
>every puppet have one moveset
>b-but forms
having a POWER written next to your name is telling your opponent what set you have there are no lures no suprise factor in this game

>all defensive pokemons are same
status
healing move
trapping move
some attack
even in pokemon bulky things like mega sableye and quagsire have something special that no other pokemon have yet in puppets only types and ability changes
>every puppet have minmaxed stats
every offensive puppet have
many speed
many attack
or
many health
many attack
in pokemon you have for example chansey its minmaxed but its one of a kind pokemon while in puppets there are many puppets that have for example many spa many hp but low atk
>official format is 3vs3
in 3vs3 there is no strategy its either full ofensive or bulky ofense but its just still throwing damaging moves anyway
>fire type toxic
while in pokemon you have less types therefore more awnsers to toxic in pupepts you need to have a one of out many types to have safe switch in
>every type have its own versions of double edge , moonblast ,120 bp 80% acc move both physical and special , 3 types have its own u turn clone . even in pokemon ''same'' moves are slightly different like drain punch is physical and drainink kiss deals less dmg but heals more

im pretty sure that the reason because the most used puppet in online have like 9% of usage is because its can run only one set in smogon (ou) tier for example the most used pokemon is garchomp that can pull off 6 vialable sets thats why everybody use it.

its still a good game but i wish hemo wasnt a fucking crying baby and let all playstyles be vialable

>>15650771
so you'd rather deal with shitty stall teams, then?

>>15650815
stall in pokemon is either fucked by a bulky setup pokemon or a taunt/knock off in puppets there are no unaware pokemons or mattering things with magic bounce

>>15650815
also doubles exist too

>>15650771
Then go stick to your shitty unbalanced stalling trash game filled with smogon autists.

I'd rather see someone being a fucking crybaby who still gives a shit about the game after it's release than a company who just throws the towel after they get their money.

>>15650771
it's just pokemon, mate

>>15650771
I don't give a shit about competitive moms or puppets, but honestly, he's kinda right in the lack of variety. So few Touhous have anything that really makes them special and stand out. Same problem Purple has. You can use whoever you want and that's great, but at the same time none of them feel really special.

Welcome back. Nothing's been banned since you last checked in.

Defense Doremy is now the most-used puppet in the game, at 14% usage. Extra Hina is the only other one above 10% usage, at 12%. Landorus-T is still terrorizing another game, hovering around 30%+.

Extra Wakasagihime failed to make a splash in the metagame and is currently sitting at #73 in the overall usage charts. One of the other Genbu sweepers you hyped up, Extra Lily, is doing quite a bit better, at #25.

The only Raiko style that breaches the top 200 puppets is Power Raiko, at #119. She's still a great puppet, as is almost everything in the top 200 and then some.

The English community is still pretty dead, you're still going to have a thousand and one migraines finding a match, and I'm still too shy to battle anyone

Puppets are fun.

He does have a point in the general similarity between puppets, but part of that is just a side effect of things being more balanced.

And Hemo's general hatred of stall.

Reminder that stall is only viable in mainline Pokemon because Smogon keeps banning Pokemon that singlehandedly make it nonviable (Hoopa-Unbound being the latest example kicked upstairs to Ubers).

Diversity in puppets may feel a little samey on the surface and not all puppets will have more than one viable moveset, but I'd rather have the ability to use almost any of the 300-odd puppets I want than confine myself to the 50 or so OU Pokemon that outclass everything else in the game.

Though I'd question how much you know about puppets at all, given you claim that the shitload of typings in TPDP hurts game balance, and yet there's only 17 in this game including Dream, versus 18 for Pokemon.

>>15685815
>something get banned in fair voting
>oh no

pretty sure that pokemons from uu-ru have also niche in ou

there are no good offensive typing or defensive typing in puppets evrything have like 3 weaknesses and 3 supper efective against

>>15686016
Ah...the "ban debate", makes me nostalgic.
My position is still the same: fuck bans!

>>15685815
Things only get banned because they're so difficult to deal with that they centralize the fuck out of the game, though, when you're pretty much forced to have something if you want to have any chance and they're hard to take down, that's when things get wonky. The reason why there have been so many more bans recently is because Pokemon has gotten a serious power creep recently, and when you realize that they aren't as much of bans as they are a promotion to an upper tier it doesn't feel as harsh.
>confine myself to the 50 or so OU Pokemon
Well yeah, that's why they're OverUsed. You can still use anything from lower tiers in OU, don't forget that, but if they're in OU in first place there must be a reason.
In any case, that's enough Smogon rambling from me. I haven't even played since Gen IV for fuck's sake.

Back to touhoumon, what if hemo releases another expansions that adds a whole functional battle frontier?

link for the expansion pack in the pastebin is dead.

>>15686016
Sorry, didn't mean to imply that bans are bad in Pokemon. My point was that stall is only viable at all in OU because there's a huge amount of broken shit like Hoopa-U, Mega Blaziken, Mega Mawile, and Mega Lucario that ordinarily make stalling nigh-impossible, and those have been kicked up to Ubers. But even in the current OU metagame, with those threats removed, it's only viable due to a handful of edge-case defensive Pokemon like M-Sableye, Ferrothorn, Chansey, etc.

Given half your posts have been thinly-veiled bitching about stall not being viable, it's also important to remember that it's barely hanging on by a thread in Smogon's OU, and it might as well not exist in Doubles.

And it's a huge stretch to say the types are all equivalent to each other in roles, even if nothing is as extreme as Pokemon's Steel resisting half the type chart or the trash heap Ice and Bug are in. Poison/Wind/Light are all well above-average defensively, Sound/Fighting/Steel are great offensively. Poison/Light in particular resists 9 types and is only weak to 4, while something like Earth/Illusion has largely unimportant resistances and a ton of crucial weaknesses.

Not that the TPDP meta is perfect - there's definitely a feeling of sameness at time. But you're taking it way too far.

>>15691733
First of all, you're mixing together pre-expansion type matchup tallies (Wind) with post-expansion tallies (Poison). I understand what you're trying to do, but I never said that Poison/Wind were bad offensively or Sound/Fighting were bad defensively. Those four in particular are probably some of the best types in the game.

Regardless, there's a lot of things that are more important than raw resistances/weaknesses, like what types you're resisting in particular. There's a reason Water is a much better defensive type than Ghost in Pokemon, even though they both have the same amount of weaknesses and Ghost has two immunities in place of Water's resistances.

But between this and other things like
>shitloads of types that mean there are no good offensive types or defensive types
when there's less types than in Pokemon in total, even if you include Dream;
>3 types have its own u turn clone
when there's only Changeling and Lightning Speed, unless you want to count the Parting Shot clone that exists in Pokemon anyways;
>in puppets there are no unaware pokemons or mattering things with magic bounce
when Wisdom Eye aka. Unaware still exists and Defense Satori/Defense Mima/Power Mima are definitely relevant puppets; and
>i wish hemo wasnt a fucking crying baby and let all playstyles be vialable
when the only playstyle that isn't as viable in TPDP is stall (even semi-stall can work well enough if you teambuild properly) and stall isn't viable in mainline Pokemon anyways outside of Smogon formats;

I have to ask, have you played TPDP or are you basing your opinions on theorymonning? These things may look bad on paper but especially with the introduction of Warped-type and extra styles, type synergies definitely exist and variety is far better than you'd think.

Try out the meta yourself before you get too down on things, and get a feel for how the types and their matchups operate. It may still not be for you, but you won't know unless you try.

>>15742570
Ranking based on playstyle because 1:1 comparisons in TPDP are pretty rare outside of shit like OrangeD (Blissey) and MomijiE (Ferrothorn).

>Deoxys
Speed: AyaS, no contest
Defense: NueD or LunasaD, but it's not that great a comparison as neither can learn Stealth Trap
Attack: Gengetsu-S or Doremy-P, probably; superfast mixed attacker with shit defensive typing and shit defenses

>Rayquaza
Mega: Any puppet with Boundary Trance
Regular: None

>Swampert
No good comparison. LettyE is closest - more or less shares Swampert's type (Water/Earth) but gets fuckawful spread attack (no mixed attacking sets), doesn't get Stealth Trap, and has bizarre abilities. NueE is a lot closer and has better (still bad) spread attack + Stealth Trap, but she's Wind/Nether.

>Glaceon
KyoukoP. Wrecks shit with her single good attacking move on a scarf/specs set, might as well not exist when doing anything else

>Sylveon
No good comparison. BenbenE is probably closest, but she's an Alomomola clone instead. No puppets have the right combination of stat spread + moveset for it, though there are a lot that can play at either her cleric set or her specs set - just not both

>post move set
Not that anon, but she's definitely not a shitmon
YuukaP: Racing Earth/Thor's Hammer/Voice of Famine/Rocky Barrage or Poisoned Arrow. Could go with 4 attacks for a Golden Hairpin set, go Choice, even throw in a spread move like Cold Rain/Gigantic because her spread attack is good too

YuukaD: Grace of Mana/Rock Drills/Power Drain or Voice of Famine/Impact Rebellion is probably her best set, her movepool is pretty small

YuukaE: Either choiced or Wolfsbane Root held item with Moonbow/Energy Absorb or Pollen Mist/Thunderlord's Scorn/Gigantic; could replace one of last two moves with Grace of Mana to give her more staying power, and invest in either HP or Speed depending on preference

Is there an equivalent to baton pass and swords dance/nasty plot?

>>15745019
PElly was busted in base TPDP because she could use Mad Rush Stance (+2 Speed and +1 ATK, i.e. Shift Gear) and Backup Plan (i.e. Baton Pass, and Steel/Wind typing was incredibly good.

Warp types kind of shot her viability though.

>>15745472
PElly is currently the most used puppet. She's still effective because the Warp types that are good are slower than her and the Warp types that are faster than her are better in original forms, so nothing really changed besides adding the ability to 1 shot her, but at the cost of possibly using a shittier puppet.

At least that's what I think is the reasoning, I don't actually play competitively, but looking at usage stats and the BST of the strongest puppets, that seems to be a possibility.

Anything Goes is a format where anything is legal apart from an endless battle.
Limy uses 6 Klefki, a team of a really annoying stall pokemon.
Tails uses a bunch of arceus + support, a common anything goes team.
Tails uses M-Gengar to perish trap the klefki, probably because he wants to kill as many as possible before being forced to get into the rng swagger game.
Limy misses his chance to dodge the first trap and doesn't seem to have a klefki with an anti-other staller set, and quits.

>in puppets you cant do that thing or even something close to it
hemo step up your game

>>15753335
You have Extra Medicine, who would probably get he trapping ability banned from Ubers if she was a Pokemon. The only reason Shadow Tag isn't banned from Ubers is because banning it would ban Mega Gengar from the tier completely, and Mega Gengar requiring a Mega Evolution means there is at least some cost to running him (i.e. not being able to run Mega Salamence). In a tier wherein Poison doesn't exist outside of Gengar, she would be disgusting.

>>15753563
>comparing that garbage to m-gengar
>actually knowing ubers meta

>>15753782
Think of it like this:

Shadow Tag was almost banned from Ubers not even because of Mega Gengar (because you can switch out on the Mega Evolve turn to dodge the Shadow Tag), but because of Gothitelle.

Extra Medicine is much stronger than Gothitelle.

because gothitelle have trick what makes setup sweepers/clerics useless somethng that medicine-e dont have

so medicine is worse than gothitele and gengar

Are there any written guides for the expansion online that at least roughly give you an idea of what the characters are telling you to do? I'm getting really impatient waiting for the translation but I don't want to miss out on what's actually going on.

>>15757396
there is walktrough on internet

there is book that explains why puppets were created

For people who have played through SoD, was anyone else disappointed by how easy the campaign was compared to the base game?

It feels like Hemo wanted to shrink the end of the campaign down to level 70 so postgame content could be added without hitting the level cap, but in the process almost all of the standard trainers had their levels and difficulty drastically reduced, and thus most of the midgame and lategame is a massive, boring slog through incredibly underleveled generics.

The only meaningful, tough fights that aren't just a smattering of free EXP are important named trainers like Reimu, Marisa, Remilia, etc. But even then some aren't free from that, because a lot of major characters like Utsuho, Medicine, Yuuka, sort of Sanae, Sakuya, Yuyuko, Youmu, Tenshi, Raiko, and the final few Marisa fights + rematches and more I'm forgetting are incredibly underwhelming and forgettable when fought. It's difficult to even remember expansion-only postgame fights other than Seija and the final Mugetsu/Gengetsu encounter, and neither of them can be rematched.

It feels like the biggest problem is once again the party-wide EXP Share, just like Pokemon itself nowadays. Balancing a lengthy campaign around it just doesn't work when a full battle against equally-leveled puppets/Pokemon will gain everyone in your party nearly a level.

>>15786745
or maybe turn based grind rpgs are fucking butt easy

>>15786745
Or maybe, because you already played the base game, ypu already had the knowledge of the types and how fight specific puppets.
Pokeman used to be hard when you didn't know the types.

>>15786745
The base game wasn't that difficult from kanako onwards until you reach the elite four. If you fight everything you meet, then you shouldn't have any issues until shinki herself.

>>15787372
Speaking of that, why no Extra styles in the campaign? They only start to appear very late in the postgame, and late enough that very few of them ever appear.

Is the SoD english patch out now?

>>15788644
Full? No.

The important stuff minus story? Yes.

>>15789817
Cool.
See you guys in a month I guess.

This reminds me. I still didn't post the OST.

>the party-wide EXP Share
I don't mind that too much in this game given how I love changing my party around, but even so it's easy to notice how overleveled I tend to be in relation to everything. I think having both the Exp. All system and the level scaling from Gen V, so everyone still gets exp but not much when they're overleveled, could do wonders for the balancing.
