Which Touhou should I play - WBaWC or TD?
Akira here!
You see, I’ve got the standalone demo of TD as my first Touhou, and the Steam demo of WBaWC on my PC!
I also have cleared the TD demo w/o continues as Sanae, but yet to clear neither TD nor WBaWC as Youmu (both games have Youmu). I’m aiming to get the full version of either game on Steam. Here are the known pros and cons of both games:
Ten Desires:
Pros:
Numbered 13, which can be read as “iza”, a reference to the Japanese title of the song “Now, Until the Moment You Die”, the theme song of Sariel, the character that serves as the inspiration for Megimi Kiyono in my games.
Have Seiga and Yoshika, the possible basis for Megumi + Angel Yoshika in my games (albeit Megumi’s personality can be considered a reverse of Seiga)
Mentioning of Jesus while playing as Youmu.
Have Youmu and Sanae (two of my Touhou waifs)
Miko (Yoshika’s major inspiration)
Soul gimmick, which can transport us into the spirit world for a short time and literally become a spirit (invincible)
The eater Yuyuko
Cons:
Yoshika is f***ing hard with her kunai-dropping nonspell, even on Easy (the real Angel Yoshika never did this to me)
People said Futo is hard (But I’m not sure whether it is true or not, so I need to play the full version to check it)
Trance mode upon being hit will cost me a life after its completion.
Wily Beast and Weakest Creature:
Pros:
Youmu (revamped Youmu)
Beast spirit items / shot types that will change how your normal shot works
ZUN said it is the easiest game in the series
Funny music (Jelly Stone) and dramatic music (Lamentations Known Only by Jizo)
Funny bosses (Kutaka the chicken god and Mayumi the living statue)
Cons:
I haven’t clear the demo of it yet, neither with nor without continues
So what do you think? Which Touhou should I pick for my BDay? Please vote for me or leave a comment below!
