We can further classify these players by HOW they play the game. Those who play touhou on: 1. A keyboard. 2. Conventional joypad/joystick/ gamepad controller. 3.

@@phasingecho700 no, theyre clearly talking about the insanely talented player called TAS, who never cheats, and if you think TAS cheats, you clearly dont know the basics of gaming.
I feel like I was between numbers 3-4 for a long time but I don't play as often as I used to so I probably am 2-3 now xD I used to beat normal difficulty runs pretty consictently and I beat Th08's Extra and was pretty close in 6 and 7 (I believe I also beat Th10's Extra but I definitely exploited Marisa Shot Type-B's bug xD). I failed at completing Th15 in normal mode, I tried to beat Junkos last spell for over an hour and gave up. I'm not as patient as I was, anymore u__u
I feel you there. A long time ago, I could 1cc hard modes for 6-8 and 10-11. Now, I just booted up TH16, and got my first game over on stage 2...on easy mode.
Marisa is either the best shot or the worst shot in Windows games. Only game where she's straight up bad is 18 where she has literally zero advantages over the other shots. ZUN why. Is this the reason she's getting a spin-off? Maybe.
@@witchluisamultifandom1212 Marisa is not beginner friendly , her speed is almost a detriment and you need to stay below the boss to do stuff , which may be hard for a new player
@@olixx1213 Yes. Of course. She is certainly harder to use than Reimu in 4-8. I interpreted your reply as "not bad in general" Though one could argue her sonic speed in the mentioned games would encourage beginners to learn focus mode. And she has the most universal and braindead advantage i. e. high shot power.
I like to think some old-fashioned and/or particularly powerful youkai actually take offense when you don't fight back, so they shoot even harder than normal as a way to express their outrage at you rudeness (or mocking your pacifism). That's why some spellcards come with Bad Times if you try to time-out.
I'm not certain how I'd rate myself. I haven't beaten a full game yet, but I prefer suffering through lunatic over and over again. What I've been doing lately is playing some games in lunatic by seeing how far I can go through in lunatic with all my continues, and than I like to go back, and try to go back and see if I can get too a perfect run as much as possible on individual stages. repeatedly. So somewhere... mediocre...maybe. Hopefully, I'm slowly getting good.
So far i can get to alice in PCB on my last life before using a continue. *and then proceeds to waste the entire 1 continue on alice's stage.* *_and another 2 continues to finish the prismriver sisters_* And with the last life of the last continue, i face Yuyuko. *and died on the first nonspell.*
Types of Touhou players (assuming their play in a 1cc Normal run): Newbies: 1: Super Noob: “Wait hold on how the heck to I OH MY GOD HOW DO I DODGE EVERY-JESUSTHERESSOMUCHSHITAAAAAAAAAA” (Will usually not make it past stage 1 in most circumstances.) 2: Standard Newbie: “Oh okay there’s a girl on my screen and WHOA she’s doing a lot of stuff!” (Will struggle at Stage 1 and/or Stage 2, usually will not make it far into Stage 3.) 3. Arrogant Noob: “Dude, Easy is SOOO easy! Bring on Lunatic!” *5 minutes later... “WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT FUCK!” (You can probably guess...) Average: 4. Average Gamer: Will usually be walled somewhere between mid Stage 3 to Stage 4 boss. Experienced: 5. Casual: Can consistently get to Stage 4, Stage 5, or Stage 6 without too many problems mid-game, and can also make decent headway into Stage 2 on Hard/Lunatic. 6. Experienced Casual: Can usually make it to Stage 6 or even beat the game. Also typically is walled in Stage 3 on Hard/Lunatic and/or halfway through Extra. Pro: 7. Gensokyoan: Can beat the game with little to no problems. Can typically 1cc Lunatic. 8. Scorerunners: Speaks for itself, really... Sub-types: Stubborn: Avoids using bombs even when panicking. Graze Whore: Takes most/any chances to amass a large graze count. Pacifist: Never shoots at anything. Every attack is a timeout. Welcome to Hell.
4:52 He stared in the face of Death and did not flinch an inch. But hey, I suppose I'd rank myself as Experienced, if you give me time to familiarize with bosses and stuff...
It lacks the LNN players and the scorer players to truly be accurate. Btw really love how the Luna Player showcase some nice and easy streaming sessions and how the three extra last spells are known to be relatively easy xD (where is PWG or PDH or Raiko’s final lol ?)
I feel like, after a couple years of on and off playing, I've finally managed to get to Experienced. At the point where I can 1cc some of the touhou games on normal, and have trouble even clearing normal on others *coughs#11cough*. Also, when I say on and off playing, I mean, like, I'll play at least 30 minutes every day for a week or two, and then won't play again for a couple months, so don't worry noobs. If you can put in more effort than I did, you can probably clear Touhou on normal in a couple months.
Definitely between 2 and 3. I definitely felt that bomb almost immediately followed by death in 2. Youmu is terrifying. I do remember being at stage 1, but come on, I don't think anyone actually dies to Rumia's nonspells.
This doesn't relate to the video topic, but at around 2:11 you hear Youmu's theme. When it switches suddenly to Kanako's theme, it reminds me how much better the music keeps getting. Just sayin
Sometimes your fast forwarding makes the background music sound magical. I think I can consider myself between experienced and expert although I hadn't completed any Extra stages successfully. I did finish lots of Danmaku fangames on Normal mode. Recently I 1cc d Mystical Square which was very difficult and took me a few days. PC98 Touhous were hard af especially Touhou 2
i'd say im a mixture of 2 and 3, yes my first game was 10.5 but i'd like to say my first one was pcb. when i play pcb, i do sometimes accidentally run into bullets, but i'm learning how to stream, and that staying still is very good at times and i also bomb if i feel like i cant dodge an attack (i may have deathbombed a few times by chance ahaha). edit: didnt know i commented on this, dont remember watching it lol. i'd still say im a mixture of 2 and 3, and i have deathbombed. i also dont run into bullets too often now, i have actually gotten to yuyuko once, but i died.
Jonathan Glenn I still don’t get this whole “If you play Undertale, you must really suck at Touhou” thing. I play Undertale, and I’m about at number 3 here. Sure, I’m not that good, but at least I’m better than this stereotype suggests, which would probably be number 1. FYI, I’ve No Hit about half of the bosses in Undertale, and for a normal run, I find it boringly easy without adding special challenge conditions.
Man, I 1cc all modern Touhou game with the exception of 15 and 12. But I never even once cleared an extra stage.... Feels bad man, its so slow advancing between experienced and expert.
inbetween newbie and experienced you forgot 2.5 : those who try to 1cc by optimizing how many deaths to occur and to efficiently convert bombs as lifeline (me, but always failed, still ): )
according to this, despite having been a touhou player for probably over 5 years by this point, i'm not even experienced yet like, i'm probably somewhere between "Newbie (But know how to play)" and "Experienced" according to this
No. Extra stage is somewhere between Hard and Lunatic in terms of difficulty, but the bosses sometimes have more unorthodox bullet patterns, although not as weird as the dream warriors compared to regular HK bosses.
I've unlocked extra in some games but not others and the best I've done in any extra was maybe 2nd spellcard of the boss on most successful runs, so based on description, I'd be like 3.5, but based on the video, I'm more consistent with a 2.
Alvin Aulia Havas All the videos here are made by myself. This is all my playthrough. check my channel for some pacifist attempts, but unfortunately, that's not a good quality videos bcause my computer is low specs. You can watch other channel doing pacifist better than me out there.
My skill is different, I can only pass on easy difficulty mode and then I can even lose. But this is already the border of my skill, sometimes even complex spell cards on which I previously could not pass at all, temporarily I could dodge like a pro, but then I cannot. My skill in games jumps! Then I get it, then no, in Osu I have the same situation, I was able to press the keyboard keys as cool, and then over time it fades away... Am I the only one with a dumb skill? How hopeless I am...
I used to be somewhere between 3 and 4. 1cc’d EoSD on normal and Imperishable on hard. But that was 6 or 7 years ago and I haven’t really played any bullet hell games since then. Nowadays I’m probably closer to a 2.
Where am I if I know how to use focus move, don't know WHEN to use bombs and can beat rumia and cirno (and sometimes hong too) without taking damage, but can't beat sakuya (all of these on normal)? I only played touhou 6 so far.
I just started playing Touhou (3 days ago) I Play mostly on normal, when i want to actually progress in the story i play on easy lmao and when I don't give a damn hard and lunatic. I Mainly play Touhou 6 and Taisei(fangame)
I think I’m somewhere around 3 here. I’ve 1cced all games on Easy, aside from LoLK (Hardest Easy Mode ever, lol.), and have 3 Normal 1ccs (PCB, IN, and MoF). I may go after TD Normal soon, because people say it’s one of the easier Normals.
I am a mix between 4 and 6. Unlocked every extra except SA and PoFV, and finished the extra stages of EoSD, IN, Mof and HSiFS. And I mostly play and beat extra stages of those mentioned above over and over (especially HSiFS because of the music). Lately I've been trying to play on lunatic, but just like I said, trying.
??? Nothing above Lunatic Player? :/ Since I cleared all Windows games on Lunatic I guess that means I am a Lunatic player, but uhhh theres obviously further up to go...
I have beaten almost all games on hard mode (12 and 15 harder than eosd lunatic, didn't yet play 13 and 17) and 3 games on lunatic: PCB, HSiFS and recently MoF. I would consider myself between experienced and expert
Thanks for making this video, it was fun to watch! Though (slight nitpick) ...I'm not entirely sure the gameplay for each level matches up with the description for each level. source: has beaten 2 extra stages and still struggles to beat Youmu's helix nonspells on easy mode i'm not sure what that says about my skill level (Also not sure what the difference between Expert and Extra Stage Lovers is, since the Expert footage seems to be showing a no-bomb run of an expert stage.)
My friend said I'm the riskiest touhou player that he's ever met because of the kinds of bullet weaving I do and how I like to hang out at the collection point too much. I put myself in "Newbie but knows how to play" since I 1CC'd 8 and 10.

No. Extra stage is somewhere between Hard and Lunatic in terms of difficulty, but the bosses sometimes have more unorthodox bullet patterns, although not as weird as the dream warriors compared to regular HK bosses.

I was an expert player one year ago but a few days ago I played touhou and I noticed im an experianced player, short of all 3.
I read the title as “1 types of Touhou player”
I'd say im very experienced and somewhat of an expert on certain spell cards/stages.
Pacifist runners always fail thanks to the stg6's last spell card
I used to be somewhere between 3 and 4. 1cc’d EoSD on normal and Imperishable on hard. But that was 6 or 7 years ago and I haven’t really played any bullet hell games since then. Nowadays I’m probably closer to a 2.
Where am I if I know how to use focus move, don't know WHEN to use bombs and can beat rumia and cirno (and sometimes hong too) without taking damage, but can't beat sakuya (all of these on normal)? I only played touhou 6 so far.
Do I count as 3 when i can 1CC Touhou 8??? Like, mostly professionally? On normal mode?
You forgot the Dude that always makes a jojo referenc out of sakuyas Illusion World "The World"
I just started playing Touhou (3 days ago) I Play mostly on normal, when i want to actually progress in the story i play on easy lmao and when I don't give a damn hard and lunatic. I Mainly play Touhou 6 and Taisei(fangame)
When I just started I used to look at meilings fight on easy and go how do I dodge that
Stuck bettween 2 and 3 and i can beat extra beside last spell card in touhou 10 extra is the easist i have ever seen
You forgot me, the guy who plays without sfx and just the music
I think I’m somewhere around 3 here. I’ve 1cced all games on Easy, aside from LoLK (Hardest Easy Mode ever, lol.), and have 3 Normal 1ccs (PCB, IN, and MoF). I may go after TD Normal soon, because people say it’s one of the easier Normals.
Either New and Experienced with a little of Luna player :v
Brandon Santisteban those are very diffrent
I am a mix between 4 and 6. Unlocked every extra except SA and PoFV, and finished the extra stages of EoSD, IN, Mof and HSiFS. And I mostly play and beat extra stages of those mentioned above over and over (especially HSiFS because of the music). Lately I've been trying to play on lunatic, but just like I said, trying.
I am definitely the second type. Funny that you'd show the very fight I'm stuck on for that part.
???
Nothing above Lunatic Player?
:/
Since I cleared all Windows games on Lunatic I guess that means I am a Lunatic player, but uhhh theres obviously further up to go...
Lunatic player that resets whenever they lose a life.
How
You finished Lolk on lunatic?
When you beat 10th Extra, but feel like you're the 2-nd type..)
I have beaten almost all games on hard mode (12 and 15 harder than eosd lunatic, didn't yet play 13 and 17) and 3 games on lunatic: PCB, HSiFS and recently MoF. I would consider myself between experienced and expert
What about the type that opens touhou only just for getting that smexy bg in the background since he accepted his faith to not beat any of this games?
than it's not a player since they don't actually play the game ;)
Knowing that i passed from the first type to the second.... Well, it’s better than never playing, i guess.
My Type:
I like my hands
and not having seizures
I will never play this hell
Thanks for making this video, it was fun to watch!
Though (slight nitpick) ...I'm not entirely sure the gameplay for each level matches up with the description for each level.
source: has beaten 2 extra stages and still struggles to beat Youmu's helix nonspells on easy mode
i'm not sure what that says about my skill level
(Also not sure what the difference between Expert and Extra Stage Lovers is, since the Expert footage seems to be showing a no-bomb run of an expert stage.)
You forgot the one that when it get killed uses all of him bombs and the cycle starts again
8: people that using low ram computer so the game slowwed that makes the game easier
My friend said I'm the riskiest touhou player that he's ever met because of the kinds of bullet weaving I do and how I like to hang out at the collection point too much. I put myself in "Newbie but knows how to play" since I 1CC'd 8 and 10.
7:24 *UNDERTALE PLAYER*
_i n a n u t s h e l l_
I feel like these touhou players have unlocked mangekyou byaku-rinne-sage sharinjougan juubi otsutsuki mode
You forgot the one player can't admit that you can't perfect pacifist Mugetsu and Gengetsu and keeps trying
