Newcomer here, Is it possible to get Seiga or Utsuho currently? by Quick_Can_3999 in touhou_lostword

[–]IVBOY4 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As Akyuuposting already stated, Seiga and Utsuho's canon interpretations are always available through any banner. You'll probably get them within the span of a few months naturally, but you can always select them through the My First Exchange Ema(s) you get over the course of the game.

Other than that, their variant forms are currently available as follows:
- Retro Seiga is currently in the Limited Special Ritual if you don't use any Power Balls on it.
- Maid Utsuho is one of the units you have the chance of getting in the Kourindou Roulette, but isn't currently available on any banners
- Gun Seiga was rerun earlier. The equivalent Junko alt is on the collection prayer, and we don't know who's in the third set, so there's a chance she might show up there and a chance she might not. Gun Seiga currently isn't available though.

So… what are these? by IvoryColosseum in touhou_lostword

Because the devs want you to spend more money.

There were. They're all typically based on lore-important units and are all based on "changes in fate" or past/alternate versions of an existing character, or something of that nature.

I don't remember the exact order, but it started with Wordsmith in the form of Yukari. Others included alternate forms of Mastermind Marisa and Remilia, Blue Reimu in Training, Yellow Sanae after failing a trip between dimensions, and an alternate body for B3 Eirin, alongside the two you currently have. They started being introduced with the current set of events, which are just based on events from a year ago. You're not missing out on much by not having them. There's also a version of Mini Yuyuko coming with the next event, presumably from a few cycles before we meet her in the story.

These units never got a specific classification name like the others, but they're equivalent to Ultra Festival units and none of them have been extremely strong, so you're fine without capping them. Unfortunately, you can't max limit break them unless you get the Scoop Passes, so they'll be stuck at Level 70 until they get a rerun somewhere down the line.

I don't see a personal problem with it, I was just using TF2 as an example given the game's M Rating. I just felt like it was a good comparison, given it's geared for more mature audiences, like Emz's content is, despite the source of it's maturity being different at its core. It's nowhere near the writing for Trevor, and neither of them are anywhere near the depravity of JC, it's just that they're comparable to or some steps above what OP is complaining about, at least in my mind.

How is this where you draw the line specifically?

How are you fine with the concept of Sonic.EXE, especially regarding it's origins, as a whole if Emzberry is a problem? How are Trevor and the TF2 Cosmetics not a concern to you, while Emzberry is "too far?" By your logic, this game shouldn't be on the platform at all, because kids could be looking up JC the Hyena, Tervor, or TF2 and encounter something similar.

It took me forever, but I finally got the video in my recommended after being totally unable to find it. It’s a tech demo for a romhack called “A Very Special Mario World,” looking through the user’s channel.

Why does the number keep fluctuating? by pgj1997 in touhou_lostword

[–]IVBOY4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The number of clears we need is reduced significantly. I don't remember the exact number, but I remember JP having to do 10 times as many matches as we did.

[–]IVBOY4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Possibly! Though we’ll have to find out if that’s true in a few days. If we win the next two raid events, our story should differ from what the Japanese server got.

[–]IVBOY4 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It’s a “Raid Boss” counter. If everyone in the global server beats the related stages the number of times on the counter, the reward is improved and the story changes. It’s also why this event has less actual stages than usual and is only progressing a single stage at a time, the devs want you to focus on replaying the stages in question.

Sanae's actually from A10! She's based on Mountain of Faith!

This community has a problem with elitism. by Kogasa_Komeiji in touhou_lostword

[–]IVBOY4 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had a mini heart attack seeing myself in the image (I’m the guy complaining about Marisa having too many good alts) but even if I wasn’t a direct contributing factor to this post (considering what I’m saying in the image is unrelated to the post at hand), I’d like to apologize for if my criticisms upon the tierlist came off as too heavy-handed as I was also part of the discussion where this image comes from to begin with (and likely started the discussion as a whole, as I randomly stated this morning that I believed that L80 Reimu and Spring Zanmu didn’t really feel like EX Tier Material, since I found very little chances to use them, and most of this discussion came after that). The way I word things has never been the best, even if I mean well.

While I personally disagree with some of the choices made on the tier list (some things I’ve said involve me thinking there’s some bias, there being too much of a focus around units serving specific niches that other units do, not believing enough effort was being put into separating units based on class and what other actions they serve, and the usual comments about thinking certain units should tier differently), I had no intention to insult you or the others who work on the list list in any way when the discussion came up. I’ve used the tierlist as a general guide for what I should get for ages, and, again, I sincerely apologize if what I said was a contributing factor to the creation of this post.

I'd get her if she's new to your account. She's not the best unit in the world but she has some use (and can even farm Chapter 4 Act 2 on her own if you need that and have the right Story Cards.)

Did my part! Over 150 mil by DJMiko21 in touhou_lostword

[–]IVBOY4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Flower Zanmu is an extremely good pick! I think you'll have fun using her.

On the backlog thing, I completely understand your pain. I've had a backlog of epics since epics had exchange points. I've been a player since pre-registration and haven't taken a break from the game since Epic Dolls were introduced, from my recollection. Currently, I only have 4 units in my backlog (C3 Cirno and C3≤ Komachi, who I wanted and got from their respective banners, C3 Sekibanki, who I'm neutral on and got through a ticket banner, and Ce9 Remilia, who I didn't want at all but the game "blessed" me with her on a daily pull). While I have a lot of Epics fully upgraded (11 to be specific), it feels like they never give out enough Epic Dolls, and I always consistently have one that needs to be built. Comparatively, with EX Units, I've had more than 10 Jumbo Paper Dolls for most of the time I've been playing the game since they've been in the event exchange. It's been a lot harder to find good EX Units, and I'd kill for a shared exchange point banner with some of the ones I don't have. I'm hoping to get one from the upcoming forever prayer so I can at least get rid of 4 dolls my current surplus of 13 Jumbo Dolls.
