Best version of Mushihimesama Futari?

Post by Zoel »

Hi guys , i was thinking of getting Futari for myself. And i just want some advice, which version is the best would you say? ( I can only afford 1)

and based on the first game, I cannot enjoy any shmups games on Ultra level difficutly for starting level 3 and beyond (Just get too frusaturated with deaths), but i love difficulty level like Maniac and Original.

I was thinking about getting Black Label, but i am not quite too sure.
Its either 1.5 or Black Label.

There's another thread here somewhere addressing this exact issue. I'm counting down the minutes until BM comes in here w/ a link. ;)

EDIT: Hmm... don't see it. Likely the 45 page Futari thread. For the record, I like black the best.

I think Black Label is better when you like to play casually and 1.5 is better when you want to dedicate yourself to the game : 1.5 is more interesting and a lot more challenging in the long run.

You can't really go wrong with any flavor of this wonderful game.

I think it's quite ironic. The black label, which is the FAR more expensive option, is the more accessible game; while the regular, "cheap" game is recommended for the obsessed.
If i had the chance to pick one of the two for free i'd take the BL because of the God-Mode, as opposed to the incredibly evil Ultra mode found in the regular version.
However you can only decide for yourself if the high price is worth it.

I really am The Creeping Unknown of the forums. "Look out, you never know when he might find your thread..."

Anyways, I'm not sure if there's a specific other topic about this, but here is the aforementioned stupidly long Futari thread if you want to peruse that.

Whoop, thanks EOJ. This conversation can be moved to that topic if necessary.
