I was hoping no one would post in this thread as that would have been hilarious. But seeing as no one thought that would be funny, I'll vote no.

A question answered in the game's ST thread, on the second page.

Searching Google Images for "<gamename> hitbox" usually gives decent results as well.
No matter how good a game is, somebody will always hate it. No matter how bad a game is, somebody will always love it.

Not really. Despite the high level of skill and devotion to the genre here it doesn't come across as elitist.

Welcome, RaidenViper.

This is my second post here in as many years. I was almost convinced to sell my collection off and quit the genre back then, in no small part because of the posts and responses I received to my posts here at that time.

Things change and a few 1CCs later I'm back into the genre as much as I ever have been.

I'll still cry like a little bitch about watching replays. Life's too short for that shit.

Wait what? I'd love for someone to post links.

Nevermind, I read your posts and it was mainly you getting upset that people told you to watch superplays instead of writing out a guide specifically for you.

Why would you quit a hobby because other people make you upset via a strategy forum?

I'm starting to miss them... Oh and just making sure: Make one thread where you introduce yourself, and another thread where you ask about the games. :lol:
Joking... but I really like introducion threads, and if you ask me, everyone should make one.
Hah. I know there is a introduction thread here somewhere already. Maybe I will post something later on :D
By the way, I do not really like ''Doujin'' shmups.

Yeah, after I specifically said I didn't want to have a guide written out specifically for me.

It's difficult to enjoy something when a primary collective group of people who enjoy the same thing essentially collectively tell you to go fuck yourself.

Or when they insist that I say something when I repeatedly have said and shown that I haven't.

Y'know, little things.

edit ps: And yes, whatever response you are writing to this, you're right. I am wrong, you are right. I'll resume my silence (on this subforum) and the rest of you can continue as you have done before this completely worthless crybaby drama queen shit post. Thank you.

Hi, I'm dtdg and I haven't posted here in a long time and I haven't played shmups in a long time. My Steel Empire and Lightening Force IV: Quest for the Darkstar carts have crapped out, I think. I have a steam account but I haven't bought any steam shmups because I've got more important things to spend my money on or it's really to high computer specs for my crappy compaq. (Although I will have to pick up Sataziaus or whatever on the next holiday steam sale.) I don't post here often but I'm actually shocked that people around here don't talk about shmups on Steam. They seem a lot better than loli shit that seems to sell.


Also, I totally had forgotten that RoboTron had died until today. I read the thread about his death but over time I forgot that he died. I miss him.
