       Some doors should never be opened.

       @slash Ok but seriously I’ve never really seen these Touhou characters outside of their silhouettes so seeing at least roughly what they look like in this has made me so much more curious as to what the story and lore is behind Touhou

       @kebokyo It’s a really fun setting with interesting characters, it’s just that it’s gone on for such a long timespan across pc gaming history that in terms of effort you have to invest if you want to play every game…  Easy       -->        Medium        -->   HardMetal Gear –> Kingdom Hearts –> TouhouI am no authority on which you should start with, and my way of getting into it has mainly involved finding the covers of all that ingame music I like the most (there’s a lot of it) and then going after those games, entirely out of order.  I’ve had fun doing it.

       @slash@cdrom.tokyo @kebokyo@mastodon.sergal.org You know what they say, touhou is a very great franchise with shitty games.

       @SuperDicq @kebokyo I’ve had plenty of fun with them, I’m just not any good at them.  Dunno if there’s a connection.

       @slash@cdrom.tokyo @kebokyo@mastodon.sergal.org I'm just kidding, it's just that compared to the quality of the all the fan works, the art and in the games is pretty bad.I know plenty of people who heavily engage with the touhou fandom, read all the doujins, listen to all the music, cosplay the characters, etc. but never played one of the actual games. (it's totally fine tho)The actual gameplay is really good if you're into that genre of games. Playing it on hard mode is mostly about memorization of patterns than it is about reflexes tho.
