Touhou Volleyball Danmaku

If i were part of the target audience, i'd have definitely loved the game. It runs well; the controls take no more than an hour to get a good grasp of (a generous amount of time for idiots like me); all of the most popular 2hus get at least some kind of attention, and its great for a quick 10-30 minute session when you don't know what to do. Since i feel the need to add anything negative so this doesn't feel like baseless glazing, if you're bad at the game, you become REALLY bad (like me) when everyone becomes vaguely competent about 20~ minutes in.

The gameplay is good. Tutorial doesn't teach you how to spike the ball (I have no clue how to do it). My biggest complaint is how storymode is structured. It's extremely tedious, you need to have at least 100 points in it in order to make progress. So for about 3 hours and 45 minutes, I was just grinding in this mode. Then the knock-out tournament, the finale featuring two characters that probably should have had more involvement in the tournament as opponents, then the finale. Maybe at 40 or 50 points it would be reasonable. But the current way is so grindy. As a person who's been watching Compact Youmu's vids for a while, I thought this would be that but in a videogame format. But compared to the videos, the writing feels extremely tame. It's playing it a bit too safe. Compared to the videos, it feels like the humor, personality, charm and much of the wackiness of the series version of Gensokyo was extremely toned-down and muted. Maybe to not alienate players who aren't familiar with Compact Youmnu? I think another reviewer mentioned it being generic, and I agree. Controls are a bit weird but after a match or two you get used to it. Overall, a good game. Touhou fans will en…
