Forgot to mention I got to shake hands with the big man ZUN himself!

u/AnxiousIntender Youmu Konpaku May 07 '23

Lies, ZUN isn't real. No man can survive drinking that much beer

u/HornyForTohruAdachi May 07 '23

Have you met the average German

27

u/[deleted] May 07 '23

Czech people statistically drink more beer. Then again, Czech beer is pretty darn good (I personally recommend Březňák), and shared history means it and German beer are like brothers.

u/painpaistry May 07 '23

I dare you to find a Czech restaurant that wasnt sponsored by Pilsner urquell

u/HornyForTohruAdachi May 07 '23

Havent had any czech beer but I gotta keep an eye out in the store for sure

u/TheXenomorphian IM Enthusiast May 07 '23

Don't wash your hands like that one scene from Spongebob

u/ImAfraidOfTheGang Aya Shameimaru May 07 '23

Hahaha

u/DarkSlayer415 Touhou Networking IRL May 07 '23

Personally I had this scene from Family Guy come to my mind. Of course, our group ventured to Akihabara afterwards since some folks were visiting Japan for the first time and wanted to check out some Touhou-heavy stores, so a good amount of hand washing was done.

Great opportunity indeed

u/IVBOY4 May 07 '23

Woah, that's so lucky...! I can't wait for this game to release on Steam.

u/FrillReborn May 07 '23

How packed is the event? Also congrats.

u/DarkSlayer415 Touhou Networking IRL May 07 '23 edited May 07 '23

I’d say at least 10k people, maybe 5k at minimum. The line for ZUN’s booth was at least 2000 people and counting.

Edit: I think the actual number was closer to 20k ~ 30k range.

u/TWNW Yukari's Railroad Museum curator (unpaid) May 07 '23 edited May 07 '23

А что не так-то? Не самые большие цифры для мероприятия подобного типа. Площадь там немаленькая, специализированная под выставки (как и прочие площадки под "-коны, -экспо"), поэтому давки не возникает.

6

u/Temmie_wtf May 07 '23

я скорее офигел от двух тысяч человек в очереди

5

u/TWNW Yukari's Railroad Museum curator (unpaid) May 07 '23

Очередь в пятёрочке под Новый Год обычно не сильно меньше)

Эти цифры только кажутся большими, на самом деле, скопления людей достаточно компактны.

u/No-Bake1104 May 07 '23

кста, а есть ли страница в стиме уже? я просто не могу найти 19ю тоху там

6

u/TWNW Yukari's Railroad Museum curator (unpaid) May 07 '23

На странице разработчика - Team Shanghai Alice ещё нету, значит ещё не залили. Демка обычно через некоторое время после представления на твёрдом носителе попадает в релиз в Стиме. Полная версия, ЕМНИП, будет в августе.

u/Loro-Benediction Hell is hopelessly large, you know? May 07 '23

Demos out, time to isolate myself from the internet in total hibernation till I play it myself

37

u/opblaster123 Chen May 07 '23

Many this is the first time ZUN put reimu in the CD cover

in the previous games and demos, its either stage one bosses for the demo..

kinda feels something out of the blue for the series

14

u/Peace-Bone ¡noɥnoʇ ʇsɹoʍ sᴉ ɐɾᴉǝS May 07 '23

reimu stage 1 boss confirmed

u/Peace-Bone ¡noɥnoʇ ʇsɹoʍ sᴉ ɐɾᴉǝS May 07 '23

MIMA UNLEASHED

u/Still-Criticism-5402 May 07 '23

aaggghh... lucky...! Steam release can't come soon enough!

u/SpiralLightning25 Heavenly Starry Night Skies May 07 '23

Is Yuuka included in the game?

23

u/santas_delibird Hata no Kokoro enjoyer May 07 '23

It'd be funny if Yuuka would be in every single Phantasmagoria type game.

8

u/SSJCrafter5 May 07 '23

Yuuka wasn't in PoDD

6

u/santas_delibird Hata no Kokoro enjoyer May 07 '23

She wasn’t? Fuck, I must have been in a fever dream when I thought that

5

u/khrocksg May 07 '23

nah, aunn's the green-haired character for this phantasmagoria-type game

10

u/Sonne-chan Kogasa Tatara May 07 '23

Will the full game be called 'Finished Dream of All Ghosts'?

2

u/LagomorphicalBrog Koishi Komeiji May 07 '23

Yuyuko gets a 100% refilling meal

It’ll be on Steam soon anyways.

u/Appoxo May 08 '23

Dump it anyway in archive.org

u/Gunefhaids May 07 '23

CD, a relic of the past!

It's probably the CD Era in Gensokyo now, since technologies are "transferred" to Gensokyo after being forgotten.

6

u/_skyventuree Yukari Yakumo May 07 '23

is mima in the game??!??!

15

u/[deleted] May 07 '23

Until now, the demo has showed just the five characters that were already confirmed so no Mima "yet". It seems all the character roster will be revealed in august.

5

u/ambulance-kun May 07 '23

So when the game is officially released, it would be named "Dream of all Living Ghost"?

4

u/vallar57 I'm a tanuki of my word May 07 '23

Correction: Dream of all Living Goast

u/Otakugamer90000 May 07 '23

Nice. Did you like playing it?

13

u/DarkSlayer415 Touhou Networking IRL May 07 '23

At the time of writing, I just got out as the event finished

3

u/Bi-deo-ge-mu Pledge of Oni May 07 '23

Nice you were at raitaisai too

3

u/DarkSlayer415 Touhou Networking IRL May 07 '23

Were you there as well? If I had known earlier I’d have invited you to hang out with our meetup group!

3

u/Bi-deo-ge-mu Pledge of Oni May 07 '23

Yeah I was, honestly I totally needed the help, my entire body nearly collapsed walking so much since I have a weak chest. I wouldn’t mind setting something up with you though, I’m gonna be in Japan for the next few weeks anyways

2

u/PapaJenkinsReal Yumemi Okazaki May 07 '23

God I wish you could give that online super fast. I guess as a demo... It sorta doubles as shareware?

2

u/PapaJenkinsReal Yumemi Okazaki May 07 '23

Wait I didn't think about if it was a paid demo or not. Nevermind.

5

u/DarkSlayer415 Touhou Networking IRL May 07 '23

It should be on Steam in the next few days.

2

u/Pretend-Advertising6 m is real fds 24 May 07 '23

Are you going to data mine the game to see what other characters are in the files?

3

u/DarkSlayer415 Touhou Networking IRL May 07 '23

There’s already been effort to datamine the demo. So far, no other characters have been revealed, though leftover assets from HBM were found.

1

u/Pretend-Advertising6 m is real fds 24 May 07 '23

Could you link me to it

2

u/DOREMANX May 07 '23

Does the demo has PvP mode or is that a full release feature?

1

u/DarkSlayer415 Touhou Networking IRL May 07 '23

There’s no netplay PvP with the demo, but there is local PvP. There was a free play station with various gaming rigs and Touhou games on them, including a PvP station for the demo.

1

u/DOREMANX May 07 '23

Nice, that's all I need. Really hyped to play with my brother now.

2

u/Tuffoe Forklift Certified Man May 07 '23

This person probably has footage of Heaven...

1

u/DarkSlayer415 Touhou Networking IRL May 07 '23

In complete honesty, it was ironically the complete opposite; absolute chaotic hell. I was also underprepared myself since I had never attended a convention of this size before.

1

u/hatboyidontknowhaha Marisa Kirisame May 07 '23

Is there the demo on steam?

1

u/Alchadylan May 07 '23

Man, that looks nice but I would have to go buy an antique device for that media to be compatible with my computer
