Is Touhou a meme?

I can barely beat it on normal, but that's because I suck at games. The graphics suck and the projectiles are slow compared to other games in the genre. It's less like a shooting game and more like advanced Frogger. The only redeeming quality is the music.

The character concepts are interesting enough that a dedicated fanbase redrew all of them and made them into cute girls who actually look nice. This, the setting, the plot (I'm serious) and the music are the only redeeming qualities about it. Nobody knows how Touhou went from being totally unknown to having so many fans. The gameplay is bland at best but the universe resulting from this game is one of the best you can find, if you're into that. This is what keeps some players from quitting the game, the others still play it because they like unnecessarily difficult games.

Short answer: yes, it's a meme.

2hu is one of the few animus that people can freely use without restrictions. iOSYS did a good job popularizing it.

TOUHOU are among the easiest STGs; slow-moving bullets and ONLIE ~10% have a chanse of HITTING your MIKRO-SKOPIK HIT-BOX. Play a REAL STG, such as ''TATSUJIN OU'' or ''DDPDOJWHTLBL''.
TOUHOU is the product of ONE MAN and IT SHOWS; ALL of the karakters have STOK ANIME designs--NO ORIGINALITIE.
The MUZIK (praised AD NAUSEAM by fanatics) is TYPIKAL of a one-man BEDROOM-PRODUSER, to say THE LEAST.

Play a REAL STG

How about play a real game instead of one whose only redeeming quality is its artificial difficulty?

I made a game where you need to push a button after exactly 3,000,000,000 clock cycles. One cycle off and you loose.

play a real game

How about you stop wasting your time playing games and program something useful instead?

This whole time, I assumed Touhou was an RPG.

STGs do not have ''ARTIFISIAL DIFFIKULTIE.''
They are VIDEO-GAMES of the MOST CHALLENJING type--they rekwire REAL, AKTUAL SKILL to play on EVEN the LOWEST level.
RPGs are the LOWEST form of VIDEO-GAME--they play THEMSELVES and rekwire ZERO SKILL (stuk? GRIND!)

VIDEO-GAMES, among other things, TEACH STRATEJIE and IMPROVE VISUAL-SPATIAL skills; they are not a TOTAL waste of time.

program something

How about you stop wasting your time programing and have meaningful relationships with members of the opposite sex instead?

Because there are already too many humans.

Please, put more effort into your dubs.

too many humans

How about you stop wasting the world's resources by procreating and cum in orifices other than the vagina instead?

Epic reddit comment chain meme, /b/ros!

>>14
Do they really do this on reddit? How sad. I guess we are as dumb as they are after all.

>>15
yeah they do it's really fucking embarassing

>>16
Sentence permutations and mutations were a /prog/ tradition, but I swear it was funny when we did it!

>>15
They do it everywhere too, so it's not a frontpage thing.
