Don't cry, anon.

it happens bro

When I first started playing Touhou I couldn't even make it past stage 4 of PCB without running out of continues. A few months later and I was able to 1cc it semi-consistently.

You can do it, anon!

You should ask gameplay thread for advice

It's a matter of persistence and mindful practice, anon!

It took me three months of on and off playing to beat my first game, but by playing the stages over, watching over people do the stages and evaluating what caused each death, I got my first 1cc.

And it gets easier after the first one, so once you win once you'll keep winning!

I too understand this feeling, despite having first played touhou over four years ago.
Still haven't gotten a normal 1CC, only easy ones.

I'm trying mainly EOSD right now. I can go to somewhat far, but usually after my first death I tilt and start dying repetitively.

Thank you for kind words tho

>somewhat far
how far? shit starts to get real at stage 4, so if you can make it to stage 5 without dying thats pretty gud.

I find it hard to believe that you actually try to play the games if you can't 1cc it on normal after four years. I consider myself absolute garbage at them and at least have a handful of hard 1cc's .

>>16380186
You should watch a replay of someone. If you have no idea what you're doing, a lot of things will suddenly become very clear.

Learn to stream, and learn to bomb. If you can do those two things, you should be able to 1cc it in due time. Especially EoSD. It definitely has the easiest danmaku.

>>16380186
You should really consider posting in the gameplay thread, but I'll say there are better games to start on that EoSD from what I've gathered.

I haven't personally checked it out yet, but i've heard that the game's difficulty adjusts with how well you're doing, giving you more difficult forms of danmaku patterns if you haven't died/bombed recently, which makes the game a bit more difficult.

Someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

I think the farthest i went was to stage 3 boss without dying, not really until stage 5.

>>16380229
Alright, thanks. (even though I personally thought PCB and IN were a little bit easier)

>>16380244
Will do, thanks

How difficult would it be to coerce China into having sex? How do you blackmail someone who stands outside all day. It's not like she ducks out to do some coke, every couple of hours.

Seconding the suggestion of watching replays. It took a lot of watching others play the games until it finally clicked with me. I suggest looking up no bomb no miss full game runs, or just no bomb if none are available.

If you still have trouble with EoSD or PCB, take a shot at LLS or MS. If you can get around setting up a PC-98 emulator, both games are comfortable and fun rides, especially LLS. It's by far the easiest in the series, and I believe that it teaches shmup fundamentals better than any other game in the series.

>>16380229
I do try, whenever I'm on Windows.

If you give me the sauce on that picture I'll give you some hot tips, nerd.

>>16380682
Not OP but I found it with google, you lazybum https://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Super_Marisa_World/Bosses#Hong_Meiling

Haha, now OP will never get the tips they need.

>>16379416
YouTube, bitch. Why play a game when I can watch someone better than me beat it and get the good ending?
