Reminder Touhou are bottom-bin scrolling shooters (just barely above Euroshmups) and ZUN can't design competent stages to save his life.

Setting aside the completely fallacious nature of your assertion, your 2hus aren't nearly as difficult as you think they are.  I would rate most of them somewhere around a 4 to 6 out of 10 on a scrolling shooter difficulty scale.  One time to prove a point to a fag like you on an image board, I requested one of the more challenging entries in the series and then beat it fresh in the span of a couple days.

By the way I should add that there's nothing wrong with an easy scrolling shooter (to a certain extent).  Karous is quite easy to simply clear, but it's a compelling game because unlike Touhou it has actual level design and a scoring system designed in sync with it.  Your interest in the genre is just so comically insecure that you think apparent difficulty excuses lazy half-assed level design.

I'm very sorry you, as a Touhou fan, have such low standards, but for the rest of us who actually partake in everything the scrolling shooter genre offers the idea that ZUN actually sells his games for money is comical.  In fact there's no need to even expand the comparison to the entire genre: There are an enormous number of PC doujin and even Western shooters with comparable developer resources as ZUN that are far above the quality of Touhou.  In fact there are even Touhou parody games that are better than ZUN's low-effort junk.

"Low effort" is absolutely the right phrase for them: decades passed and ZUN never progressed beyond flat static placeholder graphics to represent projectiles and items, in 20 years he never managed to learn how to design levels.  Shooter artists thought it might be a cool idea to animate bullets all the way back in the mid-'80s, but ZUN just kept on using his placeholder graphics.

>>318813
Less effort per game means you can pump out more games to sell at Comiket every year for the 100 people who buy it.

original touhou games? lol, I don't think touhou fans actually play any of them. I simply can't imagine that, the average "long-time toho fan excited to play it for the first time" will turn it off after a few tries. They just like touhou because it is cool and leet, gets you big points on imageboards. You can't say bad things about such super sacred setting and anyone who disagrees is an instant enemy. It was the most "otaku normalfag" thing ever before gachashit took over everything (this one will hurt) for japanoids. For westerners, again, a badge of status.
I might be wrong, you can call me any color of nigger. That's just how I see it. Be honest, this is at least partially true.

It is indeed tagged correctly.  Maybe anon is confused by the fact that one of the first segment's bosses has the same name as segment 7's (this isn't an error) and thought they were being clever.  Or maybe they just need to get some sleep and/or take their antipsychotic medication.

I have one friend who said it was okay, which is saying something because he's picky enough about his 3D platformers that he outright doesn't like most indie ones outside Pseudoregalia and CK64. I guess I could ask him for more specific information.

>>318912
That's not a really high standard tbh. Internet culture or dude horny(furfaggotry) is a weak basis for a game's appeal and even worse when you look at the gameplay.
Modern 3D platformers outside of N*ntendo essentially are all doing the same thing which is just taking some specific games from their childhood and putting them into a blender rather than anything actually that feels unique instead of just taking the same tired premise and n64 ps2bimblio gameplay mechanics and slapping it onto steam..

As far as I can tell, that's why none of them are going to have any staying power as noteworthy 3D platformers besides Pseudoregalia and CK64. Not that you'd know from Pseudoregalia's fanart, as furries suck at engaging with anything anthro-adjacent beyond drawing samey pinups of it. Touhoufags at least create a mountain of injokes that are loosely related to stuff that happen in the games.

Aside from the epic may mays, my only experience with these games were the OST and the fangames like the recent Artificial Dream in Arcadia. Are the main SHMUP games actually worth it or not? None of the people I asked over the years knew either, funnily enough. Must have been posers or tourists. 

Oh, I would also ask for a guide of some kind, preferably in image format, there is now way to just get into these games now with so many out. It would be good to know the best ones for beginners, if there is some sort of continuity with the story, which emulators to play the older ones that came out on Japanese computers on, ect.

this isnt two how but do youguys play any other shooty dodgy dint get hitty games? ive been playing this random one I found in my steam account called monolith. its fun and le cute/cozy

>Individual games don't have direct continuity between one another so you can play in any order

>6-12 are the most notable and "nostalgic" games, basically the golden age of 2hu
>3, 9, and 19 have split screen VS style gameplay (a la Twinke Star Sprites), and the very first game for the PC-98 is not even a shmup
>Games with a decimal point (eg. 7.5) are spinoffs with different gameplay, either shmup with a major gimmick, or fighting game

>nothing like simple solid long jumps with no direction change memery
That's part of what makes both of the games I mentioned stand out mechanically. CK64 has a small but very focused and polished moveset which is extremely confident about its lack of double-jumps, and pushes that moveset to the absolute limit in the post-game areas. Pseudoregalia...I can't do justice to how good its moveset is. It's very low on direction-changing (the main tactic I remember is air kicks, which aren't as abusable as you'd expect because they're also your walljump and will thus launch direction-changing scrubs off ledges they should have reached via other methods), and even though you unlock its moves metroidvania-style, they're flexible enough that you can bullshit your way through areas designed around shit you don't have. In a worse game that could come across as just level designer oversights or busted movement. In this, it's more that you flat out have one of the best movesets in a platformer since Mario 64, and the game rewards you for mastering what selection of it you have on hand.
>any more platformy reccs?
If I had any recent ones, I would have given them. Most of what I've seen doesn't look too promising, although I'll likely try a couple sometime to see if any surprise me.
