Hello! I just recently joined the Moriya Shrine (Hello to everyone else reading my comment!) and have gotten into Touhou after finally founding a Touhou song that I listened to a bunch when I was younger :) I just started to play the games for the very first time, and I am... Not that good so far. I keep dying around Stage 3 - 4, and since there are so many Touhou games, I don't know which ones are good for beginners when they first try.
Any suggestions will be helpful. (And yes I do know that the fighting games exist, I'm just not playing them at the moment) I would love to practice my Touhou skills so that I can enjoy this series as it is :)
