I'm so abstain for SA. Stop grinding your sad PC, you better just play Minesweeper; see if you can dodge the damn bombs.Minesweeper is boring and it feels like random guessing. The new computer arrives today. Once its here I can game again, after spending several hours wiping everything but Windows.

I suddenly became a developer. This I like, but I still have yet too see a nickname that's relevant to my character.
  With Touhou Shinreibyou - Ten Desires released and Symposium of Post Mysticism followed this year, it seems the religions arc has reached its conclusion.
It's highly possible for ZUN to take a new turn in the later installments, probably even initiating yet another arc. Unfortunately, it's also possible that Ten Desires is probably the last we can ever have Sanae as one of the playable characters; just like in Mountain of Faith, which is also the first episode of religions arc, the playable characters are only consisted by Reimu and Marisa, as if it's starting from the root.

Footnote
On the bright part, we can expect the arrival of new playable character.
Following the usual tradition, this said new playable character should be either human or half-human (anything that has 'human'), and is also the servant (5th boss) of the 6th boss in their respective first game appearance.
In my opinion, all of the hints are aimed at Futo.
What's your take on this subject and what would you like to see in Touhou 14 ?

No idea who the avi is so just throwing random stuff around, seeing what will stick.
Why can't Sanae remain playable? She would make for an interesting addition to the Reimu+Marisa friendship. She should be like how she was in UFO, strong and slow. inb4 overpowered. Another tag team style IN game would be welcome with all the new faces. Futo+Miko team, Sanae+Suwako team, etc. Even a team based attack style like in SA is welcome.
The new computer is here. It can play UFO while watching 1080p anime and neither lags nor drops frames. It can also play TSA at 1920x1080 smoothly.

The same reason why we saw no Sakuya during the religions arc. It's either she has no reason to participate in such arc, or maybe just following the tradition, or both. As we all know, Sanae is very well-spirited in gathering faith; and with the religions arc out of the chart, she has no reason to stick to playable characters' caravan since it's not her task to solve incidents. [size=10](Sakuya's reaon, as stated in PoFV)[/h]
But Miko and Suwacko are not youkai.
Though I really dig the idea of having another IN-styled Toho again. Personally, I think IN has the most interesting concept of both gameplay and scoring. For the story, I really hope ZUN will include the hermits. Kasen was one of the 2 possible extra bosses in TD, it would be nice if we at last fight her in this later installment.

There still a lot from the imaginary and the folklore that Zun haven't used, ones form foreign countries as well....
We have yet to see dragons...
Maybe is too early to think about 14th, there will probably be a 13.5 or something like that before...
I foresee either a new fighting one with a increased character roster, or a something similar to FW having the 3 main servant as playable (Sakuya, Youmu, Reisen)

I see the TH13.5 as well, but I hope it's another competitive danmaku game, and not another fighting game.
I read somewhere, I can't remember, that ZUN said that Utsuho would be a playable character.

Why'd you prefer to have another PoFV, you no like fighting ? Want to get slapped till your teeth out of the throne ?
Oh, I remember that statement. It was from the so-called ZUN interview from IRC, right ? It was a fake. Nobody sane would ever believe that poor attempt of persuasion.

I just want another competitive danmaku game. It would make things more interesting than having another fighting game. I mean, you can't even compete over a network with PoFV without the use of another program, which I think is really stupid, and there's been only 2 competitive danmaku games compared with the 2 newer fighting games. The competitive danmaku games are a little too old to still have them around only, while the fighting games are newer.
Well, apparently I'm insane then. lol.

What's your take on this subject and what would you like to see in Touhou 14 ? [/b]If anything, I'd like to see a high magnitude incident of sorts, one that would move the bigwigs like yukari, yuyuko and remilia into action again.
Or any other potentially useable characters such as alice or patchouli.
Fresh characters make for fresh bullet patterns!

I mean, you can't even compete over a network with PoFV without the use of another program.That much is true, but it's not like we're handicapped if we use Adonis, right ? Despite being the most trustworthy solution for most players, Hamachi seems to cost more bandwidth than the build-in connectivity method. If you forgot, we are also unable to connect soku via build-in feature if we're at different countries. Basically, fighting game also has nearly identical issue with the one you mentioned regarding competitive danmaku's.
It's very tempting to have more competitive danmaku games though. Bullet hell's room-for-improvisation is unfortunately more limited than other type of games, especially the competitive ones; ZUN would have a hard time to pick the good seeds.
On an unrelated note, your avatar is nice. Good choice.

Like we should have Yukari as the first-stage boss like what fell on Yuyuko ? From phantasm into first timer ? It would spawn more merchant jokes, haha. Speaking of high-scale incident, what do you think about Devas of the mountain ? No no, I am not biased.

Wouldn't solving incidents gain more faith from humans though? Reimu (and the donation box) isnt a good example, and neither is a shady magician, but Sanae is the closest thing to normal human seeking a positive view from humans.
It doesnt have to be youkai. Human+non human or non human+non human teams are fine too. Kasen biased.
Destroy intel not me.

Yes, IN has one of the more diverse character selection choices available :3
I didn't say anything about turning them into first bosses like yuyuko in TD though.

Kasen biased.kidding aside, so far most of the new touhou games involve a new set of characters or those that have never appeared in-game before. Might be interesting but unlikely?

Might be interesting but unlikely?Haven't all the games introduced new characters? I can't speak for written works but the people behind every in game incident don't cause anything else so new characters are almost guaranteed in new games. That said I'm waiting to see Rinnosuke appear in game just to see what kind of story he would get involved in.

Tried playing SA again to meet my beloved Koishi. While attempting to unlock her with a hard playthrough I couldn't even reach stage 4 anymore without using retries. I don't deserve her.

What was it?No. Die a painful death.    Here you go. Try to give the game a shot, BiBiko. It's not everyday you can have fighting game                                    with emphasized story. You will notice something once you look at the game's title.

Reimu (and the donation box) isnt a good example, and neither is a shady magician, but Sanae is the closest thing to normal human seeking a positive view from humans.Yes, that would be the only plausible reason for Sanae to stick with Reimu and Marisa for now. But as you know, repeating the same formula over and over is never a good idea. It's Reimu's job as the Hakurei shrine maiden to solve incidents at Gensokyo. While Marisa is not a shrine maiden, her curiosity is always being the main drive for her to participate in the ongoing incidents. All in all, it's still about tradition.

It's called hermit love. We already have 3 (one is still vague) of 4 Devas of the mountain, it's not gonna hurt to have the last one introduced. Or since Suika's roughly based from shuten-douji, who's not actually part of the Devas in the actual legend; perhaps we still can have an additional oni, which makes it two.

That's a very nice remix, Zandwarf. I really enjoy it. Thanks for the share.
