Not bad. /Soma

[Scarlet]

Yeah, that's a really good cosplay. The gradient hair especially looks very well-done (although it's a bit shorter than Byakuren's).

[Pull My Devil Trigger]

Looks good :o

[Kriemhild]

it's a guy btw

[ZemZem]

i'd still date if he keeps wearing that

[Komeiji Koishi]

It's a trap.

[Scarlet]

So what?

[Pull My Devil Trigger]

Doesn't matter, still looks good :o

I said it looked good, not that I wanted to bang them

[Komeiji Koishi]

So what?

This vampire feeds on charisma.

[Pull My Devil Trigger]

I think it's only the fireworks

[ZemZem]

Trying to think of a way I can contribute here.

I don't think I do.

[Caster]

Fucking gorgeous. <3

[The Envoy of the Beginning]

I've taken a fair number of Touhou-related cosplay photos at the conventions I have went to.

[ZemZem]

If I go to an anime convention sceduled in Illinois in April, I'm sure I'll see some.

Anime St. Louis?

[ZemZem]

Yep! St. Louis is a half hour away from my house, haha.

Speaking of traps. What happened with Boney?

Also, Touhou related. I tried doing EoSD's Stage 4 on practice mode and my eyes got irritated again, even if I hadn't touched it yet that day, so I'm thinking the problem is more with Stage 4 rather than the prolonged exposure to the game. :c

Isn't it enough that I already suck at games already? I still need this to stop me from playing Touhou?

I might try a last time before giving up on EoSD and try to see if there's another game that might be friendlier to my eyes @_@ or just accepted it and give up from Touhou ;n;

[Kriemhild]

Like I told ZM, EoSD is not really good for an entry-level Touhou game. You should try something like PCB, MoF, or DDC.

[Pull My Devil Trigger]

Which one of those three would you recommend?

And btw, blame Kalas for recommending me EoSD to start

[Scarlet]

Which one of those three would you recommend?

I would recommend DDC to start with.

DDC has fairly managable spell patterns for the most part, is generous with resources, offers a good protective bomb type with SakuyaA that is useful even if you're not good at bombing and teaches you very well how to make good use of the PoC by rewarding you with more resources for it.

MoF is easy because you can destroy every boss' face with bombs without ever running out, but doing that doesn't really teach you how to get better at the game, and MoF spell patterns in themselves aren't exactly easy.

PCB gives you a lot of resources, but is one of the more difficult games otherwise. Might be a good second game to pick to get better at dealing with difficult/dense patterns, but I wouldn't start with it.

I only said it because I started with it, and because it's one of the basic Touhou games. >_>

[Scarlet]

EoSD is very simple, so in a sense it allows you to focus on the game itself with no fake difficulty added by weird gimmicks like UFO's. It also has pretty easy spell patterns for the most part. I still wouldn't recommend it as the first game because it's incredibly stingy with resources.

[ZemZem]

Cirno hates me and I hate her.

[Komeiji Koishi]

You're giving up too easily.

To be fair, eosd is a rather difficult game, but still. It's going to take time and effort to improve, and then it won't be a challenge at all. Stop giving up so easily, and keep practicing.

[ZemZem]

It feels like a chore at this point.
