@BT: Like I said, she's unnaturally sadistic and will most likely try to go up-close and personal. And being that she's so slow... Yeah. She won't start long ranging until she see's she's in trouble... Oh, but PF... NO INVINCIBLE PARASOL!!!

@BT: She can't 1 hit kill anyone, thats why she's so slow and so focused on close combat so she can have balence, she's essentially http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MightyGlacier
@Fury: Fine, but it's still a decent weapon nonetheless.

@PF: Hey, you were the one who gave me the bad rep with Touhou. You and Fury, so that's why im going to be closely monitoring you.
@BT: Yes I do. But now you and me are the GM's instead of Elricik, who's never here to regulate.
@BT: Okay, if bullet hells aren't your thing, that's fine, but don't judge a game because of the characters. That's a bit unfair...
@Fury: I was talking about how you guys told me how super powerful EVERYONE is in Touhou... oh wait.
And hey, you guys gave me other reason other than because it's a bullet hell and because of their characters. May I remind you of my description of it's quote "Story" unquote? A game can be wretched because of it's story to, not just it's gameplay.

@BT: What story? There is no story besides the minor themes in each game, and the fact that Youkai eat humans and the protagonists are usually human, or good Youkai. A game doesn't need a story to be awesome, and the powers are more from Canon and Fanon videoes, they aren't stressed in the actual games
@BT/FURY:It actually has a good deal of story, the manuals provide a lot of it, Zun works closely with several artists and releases manga that also flesh out the story such as Silent Sinner in Blue and Curiousities of Lotus Asia. Touhou 8 had a good chunk of Mythology references to the story of the Bamboo cutter and Kaguya-hime. And thats also why the characters are so powerful they're all parodies and referencies to Gods legends and myths.
@Fury: I know, but Touhou takes the Street Fighter approach, and I fucking hate Street Fighter. The game would have sparked interest in me, and probably millions of other people who haven't even played Touhou, if it had a story. Stories, are the main driving point to about 90% of games, and should be treated to be as important as Gameplay. With the characters, there was potential to have a great story but they blew it aside for these crappy themes. The game just begged for a story and the creators denied it that fuel for it to become a good game in my opinion.
Now, games don't need stories, I loved Viva Pinata. I also loved Scribblenauts. They kicked major ass, and was fun. But they were both games that didn't need a story to be really really good. But if your going to have super powerful characters like that in a game like Touhou, you gotta have a means as to how they got that powerful. You have to have some sort of narrative. You must have a way to explain how this stuff happened, and that's one of the reasons the story is there for. That's why I have some interest in DMC. Even though I have never played it ever.
@PF: Yes, the manuals have it, but it could have been placed into the game as well. No one, ever, reads, the manual. The manual should solely be used as a way to give a short summary of the game, introduce some characters, and tell you how to play said game. Not where the whole story should be, the whole story should be in the games.
@Steak: Of course.

@BT: Well, as PF just said, and he's WAY more knowledgeable about Touhou than me, apparently it does have a well defined story. And you've never played the games, the games may have the story in them as well, and not just the manuals.
@Fury: My post above. My statement clearly states was a manual should be used for. And that if there's going to be a story in a game that needs a story, it should be as blatant as it could be.
@BT: Look, at least give the game a fair chance before you call it crap. That's just the fair thing to do. We offered to let you try, but because PF and I were talking about how strong they were, you just turned it down out of the thought that they would be terrible because of it. It's just a polite gesture. Try one of the easier games and then give us an opinion. PF, what's the easiest Touhou game, that isn't one of the fighting ones?
Out of the PC-98 games? Mystic Square,Lotus land story, or Phantasmagoria of Dim dream. But they have no english fan-patch I don't think.
@Fury: Im not calling it crap! For the last god damn time, im just saying im not fucking interested because of the reasons given! And they are all good, solid, reasons! How blatant do I need to be about it? Plus, I would, if it didn't almost impregnate my computer with a virus! And I made a vow that I am never completely rebooting my PC again, because of how many viruses it went through. Do you know how fucking hard it is to get rid of a worm? It's a pain in the ass! And im not going to take the risk.
@BT: It sounded like you were calling it crap. Sorry. And yeah... I know how you feel... -_-... Fucking harddrive crashed for no damn reason a few months ago...
