>>8025923
She doesn't. She's just a greedy bitch.

Presumably, it's to pay for the rituals that have to take place for the sake of the barrier's preservation. The reason why she is so perturbed regarding the lack of it is that it is the one thing keeping the realm stable, and she lacks the proper funding to maintain it.

Do you know how hard it is to find manwhores in Gensokyo? Do you REALLY want a sexually-frustrated and cranky Reimu?

Either for the upkeep of the temple, or she just wants to buy lots of men to throw herself into and boy-surf. Mikos love the cock.

>>8025923

Food? It's not like she can farm.

Luxuries and luxuries. Remember that Gensokyo still has access to technology from our world, so she COULD be trying to save up for a PC or a vidya console.

>>8026031

I don't get it.

>>8026031
why not?

>>8026832
Paid enough money, now she's going to sleep with Marisa.

Later on, she gives even more, and Reimu gets the chains, whips, and wooden horse out.

>>8026031
Marisa is missing out on the best experience of her life.

>>8026900
Considering this is the same comic where Reimu decides she lacks a servant, so she captures, ties up, and trains Marisa to be a catgirl, no she's not.

Reimu is quite willing to whore herself, however.

>>8026981

Well the Shinto shrine business really got going when the second mongol invasion of Japan was deflected by the walls on the coasts and the final kami-kaze which destroyed an entire fleet. The emperor at the time considered the shrines to have worked, and just in case, ordered regural prayer to be held because the Japanese expected the mongols to try again - which they never did. So like in Europe where monks were paid to pray for a soul to be able to go to heaven, in Japan monks were paid to act as a supernatural military weather beacon. Plus like the abbots and bishops of Europe the monks of Japan set up their own little armies until the goverment subdued them. And like monks and priests today, the shinto shrines are empty little despair boxes where inb4anhero people beg for teh moneyz to pay the upkeep.

However, Marisa is perhaps the biggest asshole of them all.

>>8031867
Touhou is very /tg/ related

Marisa is easy.

Who honestly still thinks Marisa and Reimu are good people after playing UFO? And please, none of that ''PURGE THE XENO SCUM'' faggotry.

>>8031957
But Aya is easier.

>>8031940
No, this is pretty much status quo since /tg/ launced

>>8031989
No one in their sane mind EVER though Marisa and especially Raymoo were ever good people

anyone have the copy pasta about how Reimu is evil in every singe touhou game?

I forgot I had misnamed this

>>8031989
Killing Youkai is Reimu's job. Is a guardsman evil for killing the xenos if he gets no enjoyment from his work? The only one that loves exterminating lesser races is Sanae.

>>8031269
... by the gods, anon. That was the cutest, most romantic thing I've ever read. That just irritates me. The most romantic experience of my life is from a touhou doujin.

None of us will ever find out what it feels like to hold a shrine maiden in our arms. ;______;

>>8032141
And it was hot, too.

Bonus points for making me realize how hard it is to identify a touhou without her frilly headgear. (Reimu <--> Wriggle. You can't unsee it.)

>>8031989
We already had an evil player/protagonist back in #7 in the form of Sakuya, the Devil's bitch that never question's her nefarious master's orders. It's implied in PMISS that she fetches Remi and Flan's victims for them.

>>8032195
Wriggle is easily identified by his penis though.

Er, I mean... her... her antennae. Really.

>>8032141
The most romantic Touhou doujin I've read would be Katzeh's Cendrillon.

>>8032441
... yeah. But for someone that has never had the chance to even try, wishy-washy fiction is the most tangible example of the concept of romance available.

Ah, whatever. I just enjoy the cute stuff.

This seems like the appropriate thread to ask this question since it was ignored yesterday.

I have had an idea for a Touhou RPG since the one that already exists isn't anywhere near getting translated. Is /tg/ willing to help get shit done? There's only the very basics of a framework in place.

>>8032445
No trolls
Possibly brainfucks (if you can't wrap your mind around the plot)
Beautiful piece though.

Moriya shrine is superior.

>>8032539
I'd recommend against trying. You're going to get trolled to stone age. Sad, but still, that's today's /tg/ for you.

>>8032539
Mutants and Masterminds.

Or pay someone to translate it.

>>8032539
Describe the base of the system (stats, character creation, combat) and we'll see.

>>8032585
I can try without /tg/, I just wanted to know whether anyone would have interest in it.

>>8032602
I fucking love littleshrimp.

>>8032602
Technically d10 based, but most combat is solved more like a puzzle than anything else. Numbers should be small.

The basics of combat are that a character puts bullets down on their turn and moves them around. The idea is to make it so the enemy can't make any moves without getting hit or just trick them and end up hitting them anyway.

There are four stats: Cuteness, Laser, Dodging and Hat. Cuteness determines bullet strength and how long a fight will last. Laser determines how many bullets you can put down per turn and how far they can move. Dodging determines movement and possibly other agility-related things. Hat is toughness and determines health, as the more impressive and unwieldy your silly hat is, the stronger you must be to wear it. (But you don't NEED to have a hat. Fluff-wise, a high hat score can just represent a lot of weird quirks in your character's appearance, like Byakuren's technicolor hair or Flandre's christmas light wing THINGS).

Hard non-combat stuff is solved by d10+relevant stat, contested. When there's no opposing stat to contest, the GM can probably just ad-hoc a difficulty.

Once the basics are down pat, I'd like to flesh out traits that represent things the character is or can do that makes them unique.

>>8032592
Mutants and masterminds work alright for it if you go off the fighter, not so much off the side scroller.

>>8027272
source?

>>8032706

>>8032325
Oh boy. Marisa and Flan freeform RP'ing? AND THE GAME, IT MAKES NO SENSE!

>>8032539
Why not use 4e? You even even use power cards as actual spell cards.

"Constriction Sign 'Grasping Tide!'"

>>8032689
>But you don't NEED to have a hat. Fluff-wise, a high hat score can just represent a lot of weird quirks in your character's appearance
See, it is precisely abstractions like this, disjointed from the gameplay mechanics, that would make the game implausible. Why doesn't anyone make a more REALISTIC Touhou game?

>>8032760
Converting the whole of 4E would be stupid, and unless the whole party is composed of Wizard/Rogues the feel of Danmaku is lost.

>>8032760
I know people that would play a touhou game, but know nobody that would want to play 4e. The people that like D&D have no idea what touhou is, would find me creepier than they already do, and play 3.5 anyway. The people I know that like touhou would probably not go for D&D.

But it's a last resort if nothing else. I don't even need to play a touhou tabletop, I just want to make this.

>>8032602
What the hell did I just read?

>>8032785
4/10 because you made me laugh.

Still, anyone for it? Anyone? Bueller?

i had a dm who made a d20 touhou game once, it was kind of like 3.5 in normal fights but when you duel 1 on 1 there would be weird danmaku spell card rule thing

>>8032689
So it would play like a turn-based RPG with a focus on Dodging and firepower? I quite like the sounds of that. Do you have ideas for spellcard implementation yet?

Why dosen't /tg/ make a homebrew touhou game. What ever happened to getting shit done?

>>8032820
Yes! I imagine spellcards would be their own thing that you use a couple times per combat, or maybe just when you have a certain number of bullets out. I'd like to make the combat entirely diceless except for a couple special Traits, because dealing with all the pewpewpew around the field is enough already.

>>8032839

Because you're assured to have any thread dedicated to such a premise trolled to hell, it would bring the touhou haters and the home brew haters together.

>>8032839
Ever since
>>8032539
appeared WE'VE BEEN DISCUSSING JUST THAT

>>8032882
but nothing ever gets fucking done, i see this kind of thread about twice a week

>>8032891
If you mean twice this week then that would be me, but I don't think I've ever really seen attempts on this.

Also, namefaggin' for now. Should we get an IRC channel going or something to work on this when the thread dies, or just make another thread? Both?

>>8032817
I kind of like what this guys talking about, spell cars only being used in duels, normal mass bullet hell for any other small opponent.

>>8032909
i would gladly help make this possible, lets just finish up this thread and make a new one later, i have problems working irc

>>8032891
Ever heard that "/tg/ gets shit done"-saying? And how it's highly relative?

>>8032910
See, I do thing there would be different rules but the same combat style for group encounters. What I've told you about just now could very well be restricted to duels. There'd be at least a reduced amount of bullets for the players so that the field doesn't get so cluttered and they have to work together to make clever patterns.

>>8032910
>duels
This brings up a question about party mechanics. Will battles be 1v1 with everyone else looking on, or will it be four guys fighting one boss enemy all going "DODGE DODGE SHIT DODGE"?

>>8032955
Missed it by a hair!

>>8032939
Then I'll go with both to accommodate people who prefer one or the other. New thread will go up with IRC channel.

>>8032817
thats me

in my group whenever we fought a bbeg it would be a duel, but in normal fights we would play normal 3.5 except everyone was a spellcaster, there was more spell uses, and more spells were like lasers or magic missiles

>>8032866
>home brew haters
aka faggots who will suck WOTC's cock forever

>>8032975
whats irc and where can i see this new thread?

>>8033048
Now, now, let's keep it reasonable. D&D is neat, and while I'm really burned out on 3.5, I'm sure you could do it just as easily with a setup like >>8032991 is talking about.

>>8032955
I'd treat it like 4E's minion vs monster difference: lesser enemies can engage one player in vast numbers, but greater enemies - mid-stage/end-stage bosses or greater enemies (like Koakuma or particularly strong fairies) - must declare a challenge. When a player is challenged, the only greater enemy allowed to deliberately harm the challenged player is the challenging monster - even super-powerful monsters must be taken out 1v1, like during the Lunarian challenge in SSiB. Lesser enemies can still engage a challenged player, which makes AoE effects still extremely viable.

>>8033057
>whats irc
Never quite heard that one before.

http://www.mirc.com/ (or http://colloquy.info/ if you use a mac).

The new thread will come up when this one hits autosage. For now: Is there anything about the basics that I laid down in >>8032689 that could be improved and changed?

>>8033113
thats kind of like the duel thing i was talking about, i agree on doing something like that

>>8033141
d10 based? i dont know about that

>>8033113
That seems like it could work. As an aside, I've never actually played a touhou game. I'm just going on what I can decipher from what people say and the colorgasms that are videos of someone playing it.

>>8033181
i feel like d100 or d20 have always been the best

>>8033193
d% probably is the way to go with touhou.

>>8033141
You will NOT shit up the board with another touhou thread. One is bad enough.

>>8033168
How so? d20s are a little big and I'm not the most keen on d20 systems, and d6 seems to imply dicepools. Hate dicepools, but they COULD work with smaller numbers like this has. d4, maybe, but d4s are infernal, evil things. Like intelligent and malicious caltrops.

By the way, starting stats would be 10 to spread across the four. I also neglected to mention that there will be a mechanic for bombs: You start with a number equal to the sum of your highest and lowest stat, and can use them to recover health when you go down or clear the field of one person's bullets. Other possible uses are welcome, and I'm sure many could be made into Traits.

>>8033215

It would probably be in the spirit of Touhou to just roll fuckloads of d6s.

>>8033181
>I've never actually played a touhou game
BITCH PLEASE

Because I'm sure you're a moderator, and I'm sure a discussion on homebrew tabletop is a horrible thing to be discussing on a board that specializes in tabletop games.

Sign me up for this shit. I'm ready to get my danmaku on.

>>8033221
dont do d4 or d6, d10 is pretty good, its kind of like d% just divided by 10

>>8033264
but... but... D10 IS NOT A PURE PLATONIC SOLID.

>>8033220
No John, you are the shit.

Please don't feed the trolls!

>>8033232
I'm on a mac. Such things will at least have to wait until I can boot camp windows.

>>8033229
>>8033264
It...probably would, and it's not like it'll come into play in combat. Maybe. We can talk about it. That's what this is for!

>>8033261
Then go ahead and help out!

>>8032689
shouldnt it be attack rather then laser? not everyone uses lasers, or bomb?

>>8033221
>the four
I want to reiterate that this has the second smallest number of core stats I've ever seen in a homebrew (after the PPG RPG's Power, Speed and Strength).

>>8033304
"Laser" sounds more fun, and "Attack" would confuse it with Cuteness, which actually determines bullet strength. Any other ideas? If it does sound bad, I'm not at all averse to changing it.

>>8033306
I don't find that a bad thing. It should be a simple system, in my mind, but if it grows and becomes more complex as we make it then I guess that's just how it's supposed to be.

>>8033332
Oh, it is a good thing! The games only ever had stats in two games, and Danmaku is all about instinct, not numbercrunching.

>>8033229
A lot of little dice universally would imply a lot of (glancing) hits, which would be contrary to the "one hit, you're dead" playstyle of the games. Whatever the stat for 'toughness' on players is, it would be representative of the lives the player has; get hit, lose a life irrecoverably until you defeat the boss. Bosses would be able to take that level of punishment without batting an eye though, so perhaps d10 on collision with a bullet, players automatically lose a life on hit unless they interrupt with a bomb (no idea how to make that work), bosses take d6 damage.

Some kind of graze system where there's a reward for moving between bullets as frequently as possible, and a power level system to represent the [P]s a player has accumulated would also be a nice touch. The former would reward creative solutions to near-entrapment, while the latter would reward consecutive perfect victories. I can see the power system being easily worked into the d6 to bosses that I mentioned earlier, something like d6+power with a maximum of 10 power levels.

>>8033332
Wouldn't "danmaku" be a pretty accurate term for the attacks? Or perhaps "bulletspam", or whatever.

Hm. Picked up >>8033232, let's see how it goes. Funny how I've known touhou for years and still never even touched one of the games.

>touhou thread in /tg/ with actual related /tg/ content
I love you guys

maybe this should be posted on 1d4chan whilst we go, so we can see whats happening maybe?

>>8033406
It's a first.

>>8033404
The "Toughness" stat is currently called "Hat". I imagine that half (or one third) of it would be a number you take away from bullet damage, and twice it (or three times) would be your health. Probably 1/3 and twice. As it stands, the use of bombs as shields is when you lose all your health--it beings you back to half. The idea in a duel isn't necessarily to shoot your opponent down, but to have the most health left when it ends (Number of rounds determined in some way by Cuteness, still up in the air).

As for your ideas...Pretty interesting. We can talk about them as the thread goes on, as this REALLY need a system of character advancement, and specifically rules for when stats increase and when traits are gained. But that will come after we actually HAVE traits to gain and the stats are set in stone.

>>8033430
I'm a little busy at the moment between this and other things, but if anyone wants to go ahead and do so it'd be appreciated.

>>8033406
We probably love you too. This thread is just full of love.

>>8033405
"Danmaku" works.

http://danbooru.donmai.us/pool/show/1382
Hiroyuki's 2nd Toho doujin. It is GODLY.

>>8033449
Just to say, each character needs a futa stat, simply because there are only futanari in Gensokyo.

>>8033449
Ya see, there's the problem of not playing the games coming into check: Only bosses have calculatable health. In the games PCs are instagibbed by the tiniest contact with fairies. Hats affecting a "Lives" stat would be fluffy.

>>8033486
It's not going to be rapefic, is it? Please? Raeping Suwako is wrong. ;____;

>>8033517
why would i not want health? dont listen to this guy

>>8033517
Adding onto this, it would put more onus on tactics as the only way to survive a direct impact without losing a life is Deathbombing (which uses two bombs and incurrs a score penalty).

>>8032564
sauce on this?

>Touhou thread

>Think of how Touhouguy 4E threads usually go

>>8033513
...

>>8033517
>>8033537
We can depart from strictly following the games for the sake of making something that works better. If it turns out that the idea of "lives" is simpler and more fun, then it'll change, but let's go with health for now.

>>8033535

You should know how he rolls.

Use F.A.T.A.L. instead. It's the most realistic system to use when it comes to futa lolis.

Intro:
"Once again, Reimu is in the mood for molestation. Just as she did before, Reimu enlists the aid of the perverted onanist Rinnosuke in subduing victims upon whom she desires to sate her fiendish lusts.
Their targets this time are Kochiya Sanae and Moriya Suwako! Can anything save them from certain doom?

...probably not. It's a comic by Hiroyuki, after all."

... god damnit, Japan. God damnit. ;_____;

Youkai, Ghost, Demon, Fairy, Human are the races in the real touhou rpg, might as well use them

>>8033623
I thought FATAL's system didn't work at all, even when you tried to use it for its intended purpose

>>8033650
it dosent

>>8033537
>why would i not want health?
The feel of encounters in the games (and in the official non-game material) is that the player is a frail but powerful attacker whose defense is agility in dodging bullets (focus) and speed in moving away from them (non-focus). 'Lives' would be a fluffier representation of this, and since combat is swamping your opponent in bullets, having a turn of insubstantial movement for repositioning after each 'death' would prevent the player from being "hit when they're down." A large-value HP system would be needless in Gensokyo's bloodless battles, since it exists for systems where players are dealing, taking, and healing a lot of damage.

>>8033666
health can be reworked to work like lives though and the thought of having like 7 lives is retarded, do i explode when i get hit the come back?

>>8033666
I like your tripcode and agree with all your points.

>>8033666
then maybe some sort of "Dodge Points"?

>>8033650
Length, girth and anal circumference are essential stats for touhou.

>>8033649
IF we even have races. That's a fairly large if.

>>8033666
That's actually closer to what I had in mind for health than what you think. Should it be called Lives, then?

>>8033691

Given the source material, it's easier to think of it as taking a tremendous blow, then after a winded period (lose your presently fired bullets, upgrades, and so on) you regain your full power. The trick is that after losing a life, the flow of the battle turns against you since your bullets were shitter for a short period of time, giving the enemy some breathing room and opportunity to set up more danmaku for you

>>8033709

>>8033752

>>8033760

>>8033780

The Mad Googlier strikes again!

>>8033691
Getting hit and losing a 'life' would be the physical equivalent of having a clean hit to your body: a quick moment of adrenaline by which you scamper to a safer position. You're not 'dead' since despite what the mechanics in the games are, Gensokyo fluff dictates that nobody dies due to danmaku. Running out of 'lives' is when you're battered and out of breath, unable to successfully dodge anymore.

>>8033702
I'd visualize that as an AGI-type stat that goes into the d10 to determine a hit when colliding with a bullet. More agile characters like Youmu or Reimu could "just barely" dodge the bullet, while less agile ones like Letty or Yuugi would take a hit.

>>8033738
Races would be impossible to balance. I wouldn't touch them for now.
>Should it be called Lives, then?
If that's a better representation of how it functions, aye.

>>8033788
Curses!

I can't wait to see how Patterns work!
Is this worth archiving for future reference?

>>8033833
You're convincing me on the first point, but on the second...I'm not quite so sure. I've already stated that including dice in combat is iffy, because I'd like the focus to be on positioning and attack patterns than just rolling rolling rolling. Colliding with a bullet should be something you'd want to avoid, and when it happens, you should be down a life, no two ways about it. Maybe something a little different with a certain trait or two.

>>8033833

>>8033864
It has touhou, so it's unworthy of archival.

>>8033864
If you think it is, I guess. Any word on whether it was added to 1d4chan? It should be there at least.

>>8033870
Are there plans for pure combat Abilities? As in, would a Sakuya-like character be able to temporarily stop time to dodge around bullets, or a Yukari-like character treating the field-edges like a wrap-around?

>>8033748
>Given the source material, it's easier to think of it as taking a tremendous blow, then after a winded period (lose your presently fired bullets, upgrades, and so on) you regain your full power.

Close enough for government work; someone once asked ZUN why characters have lives, if the danmaku battles are bloodless, and he said it was because they got shot down. When someone asked what lives represented in that case, he responded "Well, to put it simply, it's guts."

>>8033930
If it is I can't find it.

Deferring to the games, players collide their sprite with bullets extremely often without the bullets contacting the player's hitbox. A bullet entering the player's square would be like a bullet coming in contact with the player's sprite, with a successful dodge roll meaning the bullet missed the hitbox, and a failed dodge meaning the bullet contacted the hitbox. This would make a bullet entering the player's square not a death sentence, but a very risky and preferably avoided situation.

As for how to resolve post-miss positioning, the only idea I have is the player getting to move to an adjacent point, repeating the dodge roll (possibly with a higher difficulty) if there's a bullet in that new square.

>>8033945
Pretty much anything and everything is up for grabs when we get to traits as long as it works, but that really should be made when the basics are absolutely final.

>>8033976
I think it'd be better represented by simply having Reimu and such charaters appearing smaller on the grid.

>>8033976
And there's the root of the disagreement. I think that the player's square should represent the hitbox rather than the sprite as a whole.

Does anyone else have an opinion on this? If enough people want it to be one way then I won't object to changing it.

>>8033486
I laughed so hard that I literally cried.

>>8034046
For being "Bloodless Duels" it sure looks like Sakuya is casually gibbing someone there. (Yes, I know it's an SWR attack).

I dont think any touhou homebrew should be done untill we can playtest FLOWERS and see what worked and didn't work for it.

>>8034134
which one was that?

>>8034111
Maids have a lot of pent up frustration.

>>8034134
This is actually the exact reason I'm trying this. It'll be AGES until we can actually test it, but if this isn't fully done (if and) when it's all translated, we can certainly make changes based on it.

has anyone tried this?

>>8034183

We're trying to replicate not just the setting but the feeling of the games, which I doubt d20 can convey.

>>8034246
im asking if anyone ever played that before

>>8034183
Seems pretty cool, but still d20. I'd be willing to play it if I knew BESM. In any case, I don't mind that this isn't the first attempt, but it has to be its own thing.

So I see there isn't much steam left for this at the moment. I'll post a new thread some other time when I need help fleshing other things out. For now, this thread has given me loads of ideas and motivation to put things down. Expect a full and final lowdown on the basics of the system next time.

If anyone wants to throw ideas around, the channel is #Touhous on the /tg/ IRC server (irc.thisisnotatrueending.com). If anyone wants to be it on a different server, speak up about it.

oh, touhou homebrew thread. whats been done so far and what needs to be done, is this archived? or 1d4chaned

>>8034438
Read the thread for what's been done! Putting it on the archives right now.

JESUS CHRIST I'M TRIPPING BALLS

I just tried Imperishable Night. For a few hours. This game is HARD AS BALLS. I get to Mystia on normal mode and she just stomps me until I cry like a little bitch. Jesus. I couldn't have foreseen this. The manliest, most ball-busting game I've ever encountered is a game about little girls.

And it's hellishly addictive, too. BRB, going back to playing loli deathstar.

>>8034753
Now imagine how hard an actually good danmaku shooter will hit you. Touhou are pretty much rock bottom regarding quality in that genre.

>>8034801
Bwuh. I'm too scared to touch lunatic mode.

>>8034839
You will be RAEP BY WITCHES.

>>8034892
... dammit, Marisa, you whore. Alice was so patient with your problems, and you just... just... gah!

Touhou becomes much easier once you learn to enter a martial trance.

>>8034801
They aren't as bad as people say. Well... theres shitloads worse, I'll tell you that much. Tohou games are at least good enough to be enjoyable.

I'm saving up to import Mushihimesama-Futari for the 360. $90 US. Probably shipping on top of that. It'll be worth it.

I have MAME on my computer, playing Dodonpachi is fun as fuck.

I never knew whether or not the Raiden games count as bullet hell, as they don't carpet the screen in bullets. Still, trying to 1cc Raiden Fighters in the Aces pack ate up a good amount of time (still haven't done it, can almost beat the third level on arcade difficulty, I don't play as much as I should).

Touhou infects everything.

>>8035002
No, anon, you are the touhous.

Um, did the homebrewing action die or did it just move over to IRC? Man, I wish I knew how to use IRC. ;___;

>>8035002
>infects

>>8035220

It's quite simple actually. First use this link:

http://irc.thisisnotatrueending.com/chat/SimpleApplet.html

It connects you to the sup/tg/'s server, and then just type "/join #touhous" (sans quotes) to get to the channel where we are at.

Also, you may want to change your nick with "/nick yourname"

>>8034998
Yeah, that's about right. For bottom tier in difficulty... loathe as am I to say that, Darius series is very, very heavy on memorizal. Seriously, G.T. (which is a final boss, by the way) in Darius Gaiden could be beaten by TEN MINUTES OF TAPPING UP AND DOWN. Jeez.

Dodonpachi still kicks my ass, but that's because I haven't been trying it seriously. Same with IN Lunatic. SA/UFO Lunatic and most other Cave titles are beyond me, though.

>>8035425
I can't stand the darius series, myself. Don't know why.

I have Ikaruga... should try beating that again sometime (I own the gamecube and XBLA versions). Also should try to hunt down Radiant Silvergun... and a dreamcast to play it on.

I bought Mobile Light Force 2 in a bargain bin. Cover has nothing to do with the game at all... turns out to be a pretty decent shooter. And by decent, I mean playable with interesting mechanics.

As for Cave games, they're designed to kick your ass. Moreso than other bullet hell shooters.

You can't cutback on funding, you'll regret it!

>>8035220
It's on IRC.

>>8035594
Yeah, thanks for the heads-up. Trying to follow >>8035346's instructions, but FireYiff is going "HURRRR REINSTALL JAVA" instead of finding the correct app for it. I'm about to body slam my computer if it doesn't get on with the program soon.

>>8035629
You should download a client if you're having trouble. mIRC works for Windows, and Colloquy works for Mac.

So, what are the names of some good shootemups? I don't have the jewgold for importing anything, but I've got a computer that can emulate anything up to a PS2 game, and I know I've heard of at least a handful of good shootemups on that platform, but I never really got around to looking into them

>>8036367
Install MAME. Get anything with Raiden, four-digit numbers starting with 19 and Donpachi in the title, then grab Cyvern, Mars Matrix and Progear.

>>8036425

Cool, thanks ::3
