just bombed like crazy ^^;; once you learn to bomb early enough, 5 continues will get you pretty far, regardless of difficulty ^^;

I never actually finished PCB normal 1cc. Farthest I got was stage 6 midboss Youmu. :|

Then again, I never actually played any Touhou beside PCB. But damn man you must be leet to play while capping screens lol.

think i’m gonna stick with pcb to extract my revenge :P i actually do play the other games for short breaks though. IN on easy has been a nice stress reliever since i can mostly 1cc it whenever ^^

it’s good to hear that pcb is one of the harder ones… that should help lower my expectations for my performance (and thus frustration ^^;)

grats on your ufo 1cc! definitely is a great triumph getting those 1ccs under yer belt ^^

Think every Touhou player goes through this. These games are hard and challenge the human level of response time/concentration. Especially the game you’re playing. The difficulty is said to be turned up so that it will make even veterans of the game sweat. In fact, I’ve heard it said that the only game harder then PCB is Touhou 11 SA.

Maybe, if I was you, I would beat Mountain of the Faith and UFO before tackling PCB and SA. That’s what I’m doing because PCB pretty much raped me. ^^;

But, if you decide to continue playing PCB, I recommend taking breaks to vent some of that rage. I noticed that I have good days and bad days so if I’m pretty much dying alot after 4 tries, it’s not my day and I’ll try again tomorrow.

Speaking of Touhou, after a month of dying over and over again, I finally 1cc normal Touhou 12 UFO. Such a feeling of accomplishment when you finally see the ending credits and the extra stage unlocked. It is worth it but requires a bit of obsession and lots of hours of practice. ^_^
