Welcome to Gaia! ::

Nice.

Needs more "K.O. In Three Steps" though.

OH another idea!

Kourindou will be an Auction house in the human village biggrin

I remember in Wow there were class restricted items. There were going to be race restricted ones but i never saw a live item.

So yeah, some cards can be race specific.

thought on the spot.
Lines if he had a in game voice. or in text.
Greetings.
"Mind if i take a look in your bags?"
"Welcome, Please take a look around."
"Now Let's see what items you have today?"
Good-byes.
"Come back with more interesting items."
"Thanks for business."
"Watch out for Marisa."
Funny line (mostly Text)
"If you catch Marisa, tell her she owes me 100,000 (game currency) for the items she took last week."

last thing before i play Wow.
if i was the lead developer with ZUN i would try to make Marisa only appear after a certain Patch or even.
Like she would of gone out to the other side of the barrier and maybe three major patches later, she returns as a vendor of sorts in the Forest. Her items would be like beginning max level gear (Blues) in exchange, you give her some money and the required item. (For one of the orb she sells, like five of a certain metal bar, thee of one herb and about 1000 of the currency for the game.)

Gensokyo only exists because it's protected from the modern world. With the advent of science, mankind has stopped believing in magic and monsters, and so their presences in the outside world has faded. In Gensokyo, however, all the things people no longer believe in flourish. If the barrier is lost, the only thing protecting all the youkai, fairies, gods, magicians, etc will be lost, and they will vanish. All that would be left are humans to who have never even seen the world outside their own for over two hundred years.

Oh dear. Something like this went on for two pages without my input?

-Ahem-

You're both using things related to existing characters too much. Being an MMO, we would have our own characters. Thus, we would have our own danmaku, spellcards and all.

Basically, we should be able to choose the appearance, size, quantity, power, speed, trajectories, charge time, and duration of our bullets. Leveling up would increase the cap for just how far we can raise those stats, as well as our health, flight speed, and possibly ground speed and various melee parameters.

Balancing these out would be a point system. Each player would have a certain amount of points to allocate to their character's stats. If one were to say, Utsuho it out and fire a giant, overpowered bullet, that person wouldn't be able to rapid fire a whole bunch of those.

Classes should be optional, there for those who don't want to get into slightly complicated customization options, but not required. Mandatory, preset classes are one of the major problems of MMOs. That, and lock-on targeting systems. Dodging isn't a semi-random, calculated hit or miss. We play Touhou; we should know that much already.


Next up: PvP. Again, this is Touhou. Danmaku battles are as common as conversations. Isolating them to specific areas would make them rarely happen, and obviously would mean a lack of amazing environments. Players should be encouraged to settle things by force. There's nothing like wandering far deeper into the Forest of Magic than you know you should've gone, to stumble across an Extra ranked character with a stroke of boredom.


Additional idea: Fairies. They group around powerful youkai, as sort of a warning system. It would be interesting if after a certain level, each player is able to design their own fairies and determine their behavior. The closer other players get to you, the more of your fairies they will encounter. The more powerful you are, the more powerful and numerous your fairies will be. They can be killed off for experience, and be used to determine where you might not want to go. But you'll likely never encounter your own fairies, as they'll make sure not to get to close.
