I went for a run on EoSD, since it's one of the games that I could fare well besides Easy Mode (I've reached Remi once or twice before on Normal). And here is the result:
Since someone mentioned that Marisa is a better choice in EoSD than Reimu, and since I've never beaten Remi using Reimu, I thought I'd choose her. For this playthrough, I used Stardust Reveria Marisa.
The game goes through something like this:
Stage 1: No problemo: a walk in the park (that is so!)
Stage 2: I messed up and had to bomb through Icicle Falls (to be honest, I usually die at this, lol!). The rest was OK.
Stage 3: Made some careless mistake; died through Meiling's 1st and 2nd spellcard. Bombed like hell through the other spellcards.
Stage 4: Suddenly I found myself bombing through all the danmakus thrown by the little baddies. Koakuma was alright, but Patchouli totally killed me. Used my first continue here.
Stage 5: Damn I hate those danmaku in the stage. Totally headbanged my way through Luna Dial, but the perfect elegant maid easily killed me. Used my second continue here.
Stage 6: Ahh I love the stage music, it reminds me what a short stage it is. And Remilia's music is a pleasure to hear as well (dat piano solo...!). Too bad I can't say the same about her: I was going "OH SHIT OH SHIT WHAT THE HELL IS THIS" when the danmakus came out flying.
HELL YEAH
I personally thought that she was comparatively easier than Sakuya. I still died once tho: used my third continue here.
Actually, I did a run on EoSD exactly 3 weeks ago, and here is the result:
I used Masterspark Marisa on this, and I'm left with two lives when I beat RemiYeap, so much for me and the Touhou games - I guess I'm still an easymodoer even after all this time...
I'm unfamiliar with EoSD (aside from the rockin' soundtrack) since PCB is the only one I've played :<
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you did well, though! You're being too modest.
EASY MODO 'TILL I DIE.
@Chiyo's Dad: I'd like to say that I won't be satisfied until I can CC one of the games, but that'd certainly have to wait for a long time, given my current playing skill haha
ReplyDeletePCB is a good game; I might try having a run on that later.
You did well pretty well considering you haven't played in awhile. EoSD is one of the harder games too. Stage 5 bosses always seem harder than the stage 6 boss for me, glad to know I'm not the only one.
ReplyDeleteSepette for the Dead Princess is my favorite track out of all the Touhou games.
>I'd like to say that I won't be satisfied until I can CC one of the games
ReplyDeleteYou're unstoppable! Best of luck in achieving that goal.
Since I couldn't possibly add anything that someone hasn't already said.. You did quite nice!
ReplyDelete>Ah well, time to start playing the games religiously again.
You will surely get better.
@Cap'n: I'm actually not quite sure where EoSD positioned in terms of hardness level in Touhou games, but I rather liked it. And it's perhaps the only game that I could finish on normal, lol.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, Septette for the Dead Princess is awesome.
@Chiyo's Dad & HH Hikikomori: Thanks man C:
I don't think that was bad. |I would elaborate more but I'm kind of tired and heading to bed. Good job on even getting past Sakuya.
ReplyDelete@Pocky: I used to get killed by Sakuya on Easy Mode when I started, so it's definitely an improvement.
ReplyDeleteThanks; take it easy now~
