WHAT THIS GAME NEEDS IS SOME DUKE

You're attempts to add Duke to every LilithSlave thread reminds me of this old classic. Bravo!


OT: Seems like a lot of work put into someting 99% of the people here won't really give a damn about.

Maybe you ought to let this issue go, ey?

Calling people who haven't heard of some of the things you like trolls doesn't help your case, and just pisses people off.
I wasn't calling people trolls. I was suspecting people of trolling because I was worried of people were joking with me. You know some people use the term to be like the term prankster.

And let's not get into this stupid argument again. It has nothing to do with Touhou.

I like not being paranoid, and assuming good faith. That it's okay to talk about stuff and not self inhibit oneself because "oh God they totally hate me and they hate Japanese games and anime boohoo blahblah". I like to assume that others hold good faith, and not be paranoid as to think it is a bad idea to talk about Touhou again. That seems silly to me. But if that's not silly, well, others aren't holding good faith. And should back off and get over things.

This is why anonymous posting on the internet is infinitely better than having a name. Seriously. Rather than something silly like being held to a reputation and people responding to who they see you as being in the past instead of what you're posting.

People in that thread told me I ought to stop assuming people have heard of it just because millions of other people have. And be proper and explain it to them. That's what this thread was for. I wanted to talk about Touhou again, and that seemed like the appropriate way to go about it, since apparently most people around don't know what it is.

I like how in the off-topic thread there's a guy apologuising for being a bit of a dick, and everyone's all sweetness and light in that thread, but heaven forbid if someone try to talk about an Anime style game they enjoy!

Sheesh, this thread has a lot of selfimportant crapstacking. Apart from the Duke Nukeum reference, that was quite good...

Personally the game isn't to my tastes or style, but I'm not going to berate the OP for it, I still play and love Pokemon and Mario, so I can't exactly claim 2D retro games are inferior or worthless.

Only time I hear about Touhou is on TV Tropes and occasional VS. Saxton Hale maps.
It looks kinda interesting and may be worth a shot but the Bullet-hell isn't enjoyable to me. Sure it does have lots of insane nonsense going on on the screen but if I wanted to see over-the-top Japanese action in a game I could just boot up Asura's Wrath and atleast know I'll enjoy it. I would be willing to try one of the games but then there's the problem that I'll probably have to buy it and I'm sure the only thing enjoyable would be the soundtrack and if that's the case, why not just look it up on YouTube?

I've said it before and I'll say it again; if you have such a low opinion of this community why do you stick around? It really boggles my mind that someone who seemingly hates something as much as you hate this site would put up with it when they clearly don't have to.

I'm not asking you or telling you to leave or anything, but I just can't wrap my head around why you continue to stay here when you clearly don't enjoy being here.

Agreed.

That's why I'm around, because there's such a large base of intelligent people who can discuss things very well. Politics, morality, the works. But he/she doesn't like how the escapist doesn't like things he/she likes. Boohoo.
What, you haven't heard of an obscure bullet hell shooter where all the characters are small girls and was never released outside of Japan and is only on PC? You guys are trolls!

Damn, you caught me, Hazy :D

I love obscure Japanese bullet hell games with obscure stories focused around obscure young girls.

As much as I love vertical scrolling shooters.....no. Just no.

There's no way in hell I'd be able to avoid getting my ass kicked by those games.

I watched the videos, but all I could thinkof as long as my speakers were on was a blind, deaf person slamming uncontrollably on a keyboard...

When I turned off my speakers, I managed to form an opinion. Unfortunately, this opinion was "Holy Bullet Hell, Batman, how can anyone even remotely enjoy such nonsense?!"

Christ on a bread bin you guys are delicate little snowflakes aren't you? "Waah you insulted us all!" "Waah stop talking about things I don't like" "Waah stop saying bad things about what I do like" "You're a troll!" "No you're a troll!" yadda yadda etc. I've seen less tears at a first time anal convention.

I've finally cracked the code, the Escapist forums (cause sweeping statements are kewl) is /v/ with a thesaurus and some kind of complex about "objectively" proving things wrong.

I suggest you actually read through the thread and count the number of people actually acting like that...

You'll find it to be a minority at best.

Oh my god, I had that happen to me and a friend while we were playing BF2 years ago, We had no idea what was going on but it was hilarious. I guess now the mystery is solved.

OT: I had heard about this game a while ago, I think in a thread on this site asking if liking one of it's characters would be considered loli?.. but don't really have any interest in playing it. It has a decent art style but in terms of gameplay and story there isn't much there to grab my attention.

Gonna have to run that one by me again. How're those analogically comparable? Asking this 'cause I know nothing of Touhou, to be honest.
