Touhou 6: the Embodiment of Scarlet Devil - Lunatic No Bombs - (Patched Clear)

Note from 2022: Considering the use of the Hitbox patch in this Run, I will be considering this run Invalid as using the patch is poor form and by my standards today, I am of the opinion that it should not be used in a legitimate run. Rather than taking down the video(I don't like having anything I consider close to cheating on this channel), I decided to leave this up in the event someone wants to reference this run for whatever reason. Thank for your time and have a nice day.
This game is quite punishing for survival challenges. You only get about eight lives total and due to the random nature of this game every death often matters. Most of the difficulty of this game is Remillia. Remillia is extremely unstable when it comes to her RNG and every attack can seemingly wall you unfairly. for this reason showing up with less than 3 lives can often make for a frustrating experience. This difficulty cost me four runs at Scarlet Gensokyo and a few others at Young Demon Lord and Vampire Illusion. The rest of the game Is alright, up until stage four. Another hard part of the game in my opinion is the books section. To this day I have no idea how anyone is supposed to tackle this without the use of bombs. On no bombing categories this often means that you are almost guaranteed to die which is very unfortunate since dying here lessens the margin for error for everything after. Overall In my honest opinion, I am not a fan of this game due to many of the things that I listed above. This game in my opinion has a bunch of things that go against it for example, This game has a tendency to De-sync your replays if you do something wrong and It's over reliance on RNG makes the game not as fun to play as the other games. In addition, the practice mode is not as refined as it does not give a newer player enough resources to make effective use of the practice system which makes spoilerAl almost essential for practicing the game. Aside from that however I am glad that I was able to get this run as It means that as a player I am improving and capable of getting these runs in future games. On a side note, this is the first LNB that i completed on stream as well. Next game on my list is IN which I will be doing two separate LNB's for Final-A and Final-B.
