This is as good a thread as any to ask:
Why is this still the preferred touhou fighting game? Two have been released since then, right? While obviously newer doesn't mean better I never played the fighting games so I'm curious as to why things are like this.
>>

The Touhou fighting games are unique from other anime fighters because each one plays drastically different from the other. (Exception being Hisoutensoku and SWR) Most anime fighters will keep up a consistent style of play, even if the mechanics and combos change, but that's not the case with Touhou. Because of this, people either never adapted to the new games or never wanted to adapt. Hisoutensoku was also released during the "golden age" of Touhou popularity so a lot more people played it.

I still prefer IaMP because it plays more like a fighter than a danmaku Vs. game.
>>
>>15477311
I like it more because I like the character way much more than the new games.

Thank you for the answers. I'm really not a competitive person so I'm not sure how much I'd like these, but I think I'll give them a try soon.

They're very casual and all of them except IaMP have mechanics that play with RNG or are unconventional for serious fighters. (IaMP controls like shit though and has one of the most awkward setups for any fighter I've ever played.)

Along with what others said, Hopeless Masquerade was seen as a step down mechanics and control-wise from Hisoutensoku and wasn't even finished when it was first released. While later versions of HM and Urban Legend in Limbo are better, the new series just hasn't really recovered from the initial reception

That's really more for watching and fucking around. Well, I guess creating too if you're competent. Or at least funny.

I have spent far too much time on Saltybet due to that.

The most enjoyable Touhou fighting game.
10x better than HM and ULiL combined.

Best part of Hisoutensoku.

Same.
Melty Blood Actress Again Current Code, to be specific. It gives you that rush when playing it.
Blazblue Calamity Trigger is nice too.
>>
>>15482058
this guy gets it, spellcards, combos, more charaters than ULiL...

Basically been answered already, but I'll add my 2c.

Shit's hilarious. The cute little characters throw each other around like basket balls. The absence of voices only adds to the game strangely enough.
And Reisen's drink super is the greatest thing ever.
Speaking of Reisen:

Melty Blood Actress Again Current Code. Just don't use the Steam version for now, as they are not done fixing the netcode.
