The original thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/touhou_lostword/comments/v1nsoq/jp_spoilers_new_character_galore/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 3) Maintenance summary - Global will have maintenance on the 2nd of June, and the following will be added: Lunar War Kaguya (SFES) MoF Sanae Retro + Mononobe no Futo banner some new battle type - "Conflux Battle Stage" already ongoing things continue or have been extended (as in the case of Star EX) 4) Results of my poll are up. I am surprised about the overwhelmingly good reception of Lost Word after 1 year on Global, especially after all the things that have happened. Dis the developer team actually manage to redeem itself after the controversy at the half a year anniversary? Is the game just that good? Or people in that environment are just too used to gacha game they have become desensitized to absolutely anything? Results (based on 376 votes, voting pool closed after 3 days): "I like it quite a bit" = 53.72% "It is OK/could have been better" = 42.02% "I don't really like it" = 2.12% "I hate it" = 1.06% "I have not played the game" = 1.06% For more results, I will try the poll again, this time in a more neutral environment like r/touhou (or at least anywhere else but on r/touhou_lostword)

I am still in the process of getting my favs, as I still need Raiko and eventually Tenkyuu (whenever the UM cast will appear in LW). Until then, there is a bit of uncertainty of what to do. I have 2810 Seal Crystals right now, yet no interest in the SFES banner ongoing (Hifuu Remilia and Flandre, Mysterious Sword Master). I was looking out of curiosity for when PCB Yukari and Alice are coming (13th and 15th of May), but I do not like the fact the two are separate banners. Plus, I do not really want any new SFES unit in my collection as I already have two of them (Lunar War Reimu and Toyohime), unless I want some dupes for MSM (have her stuck at lvl 70, and wanna save my Divine Paper Dolls for later). You mean the Scarlet Devil Tower challenge that comes every now and then? I never really got too much into it (I am only at Stage 11), so better get a bit more work once it comes back on the 19th of May. I have not seen too much story of it yet outside the intro cutscene. That story has become so messy as a whole once they added Act 3. I think all of us wanted that one to be the conclusion of the story, we though it might finally get over in the final stages, but then NOPE, it ends in a cliffhanger for adding a new chapter. It does indeed fell a lot like "everyone is here", randomly throwing in characters left and right. There are just so many you end up losing track who is who and on what side. At one point, we literally something you could describe as a three-way battle that felt a little bit pointless. I just hope Act 4 will be the conclusion of this story, as I fell it dragged for way too long.

Yeah, I really like the story in this. But I completely lost the interest in the Hakugyokurou chapter when Letty appeared. Before that I felt a sense of dread and emergency. Now? Absolutely nothing lmfao

Do touhou and gacha work together? well.. it depends, it's all boils down to the individual opinion whether they want to spend their time collecting digital characters. i played a bit of LW got my favs and now im kinda lost. now all i do is just grind SC to collect them all characters. didnt really care about the ultra fes at the moment. also a bit of topic detour, really love Scarlet Devil Tower saga story. it's simple, no nonsense and has really interesting concept. and really loving how it's formatted as a children's story. unlike the Hakugyokurou Arena, that one is a lot more complicated. and what's with the latest chapter, throwing in more characters that has nothing to do with current events, it's like they desperate to elongate the story. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa also i really wanna play Danmaku Kagura but system not supported...cry...
