東方幕華祭 - Fantastic Danmaku Festival (1.04) - Sanae Lunatic 1cc
0Starting to notice that I'm not exactly too consistent with my titles...
Never did go for a lunatic clear in this game in the past. I wouldn't be able to tell what is new and what isn't without looking at runs from the older versions. Kind of decided to check how lunatic was on a whim while working on those SC videos. I don't know yet if I will tackle lunatic in the previous version of this game.
More or less was trying to manage my resources as best as I can given how much the game gives you. Relied on bombs to get past whatever I couldn't really handle or when I felt unsafe.
Main reason I used Sanae is because I wanted to use a spread shot to avoid being tackled by stage 2 fairies (like what sort of happened in that normal run with Reimu). It somewhat helps that her unfocused bomb takes half a bomb, but I only took advantage of that in a few sections. I did read that Sanae is a bit more powerful now compared to before. I probably would have gone with Patchouli, but she is a bit controller unfriendly with how my controls are set up. I guess to put things to perspective, I use R1 for shot, square for focus, and x for bomb (if I explain things in terms of Sony controllers). I could probably adapt, but my head kind of trips on itself trying to figure out when I should release the shot button to take advantage of Patchouli's firepower.
I feel sitting still at the start of stage 2 is easier now compared to back then.
