[Touhou Project] I wonder if Embodiment of Scarlet Devil will be released on Steam.

Japan Otaku Reviews+

Even if it’s impossible to do the old works, at the very least, I definitely want to try the landmark first work on Windows.

1: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx13

Because the source code is no longer available.

2: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t it sold at places like Melonbooks?

3: Japan Otaku Reviews

You can’t directly port the compiled code as it is.

4: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx23

>>3

Don’t say it so casually.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews

When playing Red on the current PC, the FPS gets really messed up, right?

6: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>5

Yeah, we just have to apply an unofficial patch to fix it.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews

If we were to do reverse engineering, it seems like if we called for it, volunteers would come flocking even without the priest doing it.

It seems like the shrine priest himself is not motivated…

11: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx15

>>7

Isn’t it better to create something new instead of putting in the effort to remake something old?

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx13

>>11

That’s right.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s not that I can’t do it, but whether I can or not.

>>11

90: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>11

The fact is that they are actively releasing new works, so I can’t say anything.

96: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>90

But even if they release a new work, it’s not a topic of conversation at all, is it?

I think more people would gather if we said we were going to remake Scarlet Devil Mansion.

100: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>96

No…

101: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>96

“I have no intention of listening to what someone who doesn’t pay has to say.”

“I don’t need money anymore, so I have no intention of listening to anyone.”

102: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>96

I think if there are 1000 Steam reviews, it means it’s selling well.

103: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>96

We don’t know even if you tell us.

Try saying that wording directly to the shrine priest.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews

Don’t expect too much from a work that seems like it just came out when winXP was newly released.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>8

Huh!? That fact hits hard.

9: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s like taking a boiled egg and turning it back into a raw egg to boil it again.

10: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

I think losing the source code is just a convenient excuse.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that if you start up the current PC and replay it, the Crimson Mist Incident can be resolved in an instant.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, it’s not like we can’t play.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a world where people who know more than the shrine priest can emerge endlessly.

16: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

I think there are quite a few people who want to play Scarlet Devil Mansion.

Well, used ones aren’t that expensive, and if you buy the disc and apply the patch, you can easily set up a play environment.

17: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

It seems that they often leave things untouched without patches except for critical bugs, and since there was only one PS release, I thought they weren’t particularly interested in support or anything like that… so the current state of Steam being so robust and their consistent stance on releasing new titles on Steam is surprising.

The fact that they haven’t released the red demon eternity despite going this far really seems to be a technical issue…

39: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>17

This was personally the time when I felt the most fulfilled…

18: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

It feels like the beast patch was released without much aftercare, as if to say, “Are you feeling sick, Kun-nushi-san?”

19: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, the beast communication battles really weren’t functioning properly…

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s made to fit the environment of 2000, so it won’t work.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you look at just the year, it’s already a work from 23 years ago…

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you request a port to M2, it would easily pay off.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews

If that’s the case, I wished they would have stuck to it as the ultimate gag game.

24: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want something like a remake.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m not the type of creator who tries to port or remake something just because it’s popular.

People who are motivated probably have the attitude of figuring things out on their own.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that there was a discussion about how HisoTen has a low resolution, making it more labor-intensive to deal with.

27: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I probably won’t make it, but if it comes out, I think I’ll end up buying it.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s not particularly hard to obtain, and you can play it with a volunteer patch applied.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

Crimson is a good game, isn’t it?

31: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

What’s most annoying is that my current PC doesn’t have an optical drive.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder if that crotchety dialogue will be rewritten if it’s remade.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

My fingers and eyes are strange, but is this AI?

34: Japan Otaku Reviews

But I want to hear the shrine maiden’s self-arrangement of Scarlet Devil Mansion.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are too many events regarding the East that make me think, “Why?”

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

The old Eastern paintings look quite dull and harsh when viewed now.

37: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

I think it was said to be tough back then, right?

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

“Franco is really off balance.”

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

Personally, I’m more concerned about the colors than the drawing.

It’s thin, or rather, it feels a bit vague.

41: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

Well, even if there is a source, it’s probably a pain to fix old software.

42: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>41

If you forget the contents or make it carelessly, won’t it become hell…?

43: Japan Otaku Reviews

Red has a good balance of strength for the player’s character, doesn’t it?

I wonder why there was such a disparity among the yokai…

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>43

Just by making the number of bombs the same, it should get much better.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m the guy who definitely doesn’t patch things up with the wind.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

If they’re going to do something like a port, it’s the reason why older works don’t come to Steam and such is to create a new title instead.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

To be honest, there’s no need to balance the characters too much in this game.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews

The desire for new works is good, but Beast King Garden was a bit unsatisfactory even after the patch.

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

I still think that Danmaku Kyokkai and Mugen Hōyō are top-notch bullet hell games, so I want something like a remaster…

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t it good to have bored otaku do reverse engineering?

Development costs can be appropriately covered through crowdfunding.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>53

In the first place, I’m the type who really dislikes the idea of other people (people I don’t know) getting involved, like that bone.

54: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

What is it? Do you all want to see Sakuya from the time when she was like a squished bun?

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

If I release it on Steam, I’ll be scolded for not providing support…

56: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

When I first saw the rainbow wind chimes and the colorful rain, I was so amazed by their beauty.

I like Meiling’s spell card, which tends to be the subject of jokes.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

Generally, it feels more natural to remaster classic works after they are completed, but there is none of that in Touhou.

59: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I feel like there were a few instances where I got scolded for recreating Touhou: Embodiment of Scarlet Devil.

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>59

It’s 3D Remilia Scarlet, and mere 3D conversion was sharply dismissed as not being a derivative work.

60: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Making games is 10% fun and 90% suffering.

And remakes lack that precious enjoyment and only bring suffering.

I won’t do it while I’m not in need of money.

Since they said that it was a long time ago, a remake is unlikely to come out.

61: Japan Otaku Reviews

Around the time the wind picked up, I was selling Red Youkai Night at Melonbooks. I don’t remember how many years ago that was, and I have no memories of the OS from that time.

62: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

But I like Reimu from the Scarlet Devil Mansion because he’s a bit handsome.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

There have been several people who tried to create it, but…

Touhou Koumakyou is something of a bone, so I’m being told not to copy it.

(It is not fan fiction; it is just a pirate copy.)

Well, it’s fine if the bone asks someone on its own authority.

That’s because I don’t want to do it since supervising the instructions is a hassle.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

There’s no need for the priest to make a remake, is there?

I think it would be fine as long as we just get permission and supervision.

There are quite a few circles creating derivative works games.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>65

Well, it becomes a story that there’s no need to do that…

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

There’s no need to be particular about playing the original on Steam, except for those who don’t have a CD drive.

It’s a second-hand item originally priced at 1000 yen.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>66

It doesn’t work properly even if I patch it with a volunteer’s help as it is.

67: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

It’s simply difficult to play Scarlet Devil Mountain right now.

The screen ratio is small, and there are no hitbox displays or enemy markers.

I don’t mind reusing the graphics and background music; I just want to use the current system.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I tried to do something, there was no optical drive.

70: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

It’s amazing that the work featuring the most popular character is in the most inaccessible position (on the Win version).

77: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>70

It’s not that it’s necessarily a bad thing, but…

There is a part that plays a role in the trend of being okay with being an outsider in Touhou, especially in the beginner-friendly aspects of the red series.

It’s not just that I can’t clear it on easy, but personally, I think it’s quite problematic that the patterns are often different in practice compared to the actual run because of the ranking system!

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel like there was a trend a while ago where unofficial patches were not recognized for replays or something like that.

Was it just my imagination, after all?

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

Now doing it feels too tedious to retry, Kure.

74: Japan Otaku Reviews

There were groups that were buying and breaking old works with enthusiasm, but I wonder if the early three-part series of Win will take that position as well…

75: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

The supply quantity is different from the old works…

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

The era when the number of lives could be changed as an option.

78: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Unlike the old version, the physical disk of the Windows version is being resold and there are quite a few available.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was probably also a time when doujin shops were doing quite well, in the Heisei era of the 1990s.

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

The atmosphere that drifts in the crimson story is the root that formed my image of Touhou, so I would like as many people as possible to experience it.

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the Vpatch README, it mentioned something about reverse engineering and analysis, etc.

I didn’t know you could see something like that.

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

The local Melonbooks had 6 out of 8 shelves for men’s and general items that were related to Touhou and other eras…

83: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

However, I definitely want those who haven’t played it yet to experience Akane.

And I want to be shot and killed by Cirno’s shotgun when I’m being careless, thinking “The front placement of Cirno is just easy, right? I know, I know.”

84: Japan Otaku Reviews

Wouldn’t it be good to just buy the physical version? But the formation of a community through release on Steam is valuable.

89: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>84

It’s not a precious thing or anything; Touhou isn’t even that minor of a game.

85: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t it possible to create something that feels like it’s integrated within the game?

Like a collection

87: Japan Otaku Reviews

Marisa Kirisame’s seriously ultimate weapon, Master Spark, is amazing, isn’t it…?

88: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are means to connect with those who want to do it right now, so isn’t that fine?

91: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want to play you you dream on Steam…

92: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

In other words, the download version is simply easier to manage.

93: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

If you’re saying that being a shrine priest is troublesome and you don’t want to do it, or it’s because of a dark history, then that’s all there is to it.

If you really want to move it, you have no choice but to offer a large amount of sake that will make the priest groan.

94: Japan Otaku Reviews

The first three works have a pilgrimage-like quality.

These are the ones I jerked off to…!

95: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s like with any game, users casually say they want remasters and ports, but it’s incredibly tedious.

97: Japan Otaku Reviews

I suppose there will be new releases this year as well…

Are you starting to understand the title by now?

108: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>97

Announcement in April

Spring example trial version

Complete version at Summer Comiket.

The basic flow of recent integer new works is as follows.

99: Japan Otaku Reviews

I like how the head maid, the gatekeeper, and the original Patchouli all have a somewhat slow, original-like facial structure.

104: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

People who usually don’t play the original won’t buy it just because they demanded a remake.

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t it a topic of conversation…? The difference in timelines is amazing.

106: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Stop pretending to be a producer, kid.

107: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

If it’s a judgment that isn’t currently a topic of discussion, remaking it would probably not make it a topic of discussion either.

109: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think that if Touhou were made by some kind of company, the Remake of Embodiment of Scarlet Devil would have been heavily marketed.

It’s got a ridiculous title like the new TOUHOU Scarlet Mansion.

110: Japan Otaku Reviews

I mean, the original work’s graphics and systems haven’t dramatically evolved, so it’s more of a remaster than a remake, right?

113: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>110

It will at most just be the UI after the Seirei Senshi.

111: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

It’s not a trending topic.

“I’m just not following it.”

112: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you just want to gather people and make money, then there are still untapped paths like official social games.

114: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s inevitable because the anonymous person doesn’t have the concept of making what they like.

115: Japan Otaku Reviews

As long as there are environments where people who want to play can somehow play, that’s good enough, right?

116: Japan Otaku Reviews

Compared to old works, which have limited possibilities for play due to being out of print, this one still has a lot to offer.

117: Japan Otaku Reviews

I would definitely be disappointed if the conversation scenes became trendy or if the effects and bullet patterns changed weirdly.

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the midst of the early intense music, neither the player character nor the boss is sober as they converse.

I really want to have this taken by young kids around puberty.

119: Japan Otaku Reviews

Certainly, if you don’t distribute and sell it, there won’t be any repercussions, so it’s okay to just make it for yourself.

There’s no need to impose the worst titles and graphics from the East.

120: Japan Otaku Reviews

The red ones are super fast enemies, soft, and the ranking system feels different somehow.

128: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>120

The sound feels a bit different.

121: Japan Otaku Reviews

Finally, the foreshadowing of the miko being allowed to eat humans has been resolved.

122: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>121

That’s really something that hasn’t become a topic of discussion…

124: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>122

The Hakurei Shrine Maiden was trending.

129: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>124

Hakurei Miko Child Organs…

132: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>129

The yokai all stated in unison, “I thought it would happen someday.”

123: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t it better to create something new with that effort? I respect that style, but with that reasoning, it feels like there won’t be any ports until the bones are dead and the rights to Touhou transfer to someone else…

125: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>123

Well, as long as I’m alive, I do feel like I want to see new works.

126: Japan Otaku Reviews

The mistake from the beginning is saying that people gather because of money and bones.

That person is engaged in their hobby.

134: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>126

It’s surprising that I can’t understand this.

Don’t you have any hobbies?

139: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>134

That’s just too much to talk about bones based only on imagery.

They say they want various people to know about it, and there are also comments that show they are genuinely concerned about popularity.

He says he doesn’t need money anymore.

127: Japan Otaku Reviews

Version 1.00 is a rare item, but I think other versions have been burned and distributed in large quantities both domestically and internationally.

In recent years, it should have been on display in shops, not just second-hand.

130: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

The music is a bit rough around the edges, but it’s catchy and good… It feels like my impression of a rock band whose early album tracks still have a strong following, like in “Kouma’kyou.”

131: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t the first edition of the Horai doll really expensive now?

133: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>131

Surugaya is just playing around with the market toys.

135: Japan Otaku Reviews

Hōrai is clearly different from the text and there are fewer of them, so it can’t be helped.

136: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, it’s true that the miko’s entrails were exposed, but…

141: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>136

The mischievous behavior of the little character as a ryona element is just too cute.

137: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

It’s not that it’s not a topic; it’s like a cry I’ve been saying for about 20 years, so it’s the people who pay attention to it that are a bit off!

138: Japan Otaku Reviews

You must be looking forward to the fortune slip from Kutaka-chan.

140: Japan Otaku Reviews

Touhou has been irrelevant for 20 years!

142: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>140

Soon it will be a quarter of a century since it became obsolete…

143: Japan Otaku Reviews

The Touhou series is older than the term “owacon” itself…

145: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>143

I’ve been alive since before “owacon” was born, and even after “owacon” has become a dead body, I’ve managed to survive…

The newcomer who was lured in by the new guy trap is already a veteran now…

144: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is it still a dead genre with fan works, derivative games, new releases, and exclusive events?

146: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems there will be a dying event sale this week too.

147: Japan Otaku Reviews

The once-expectant new face of the idol has now become a veteran…
