Labyrinth of Touhou Tri (Demo) Review/Propaganda Post

So I literally just finished the demo for Labyrinth of Touhou Tri, and I have a looooooot of thoughts I would like to share to those who care about JRPGs and Touhou. This will be coming from the pov of someone who fucking loves touhou and played the previous game to near completion (not counting the postgame cuz that sucked penis), so take my opinions as gospel (or don't. in fact probably don't)

I'll do this in a bulleted list sorta cuz I really don't wanna organize my thoughts any more than this, the game's not even out anyway

However, before anything else, lemme just say:

PLAY THE DEMO RIGHT NOW RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

There will be no real actual spoilers dw:

STORY

Let me preface some of this with the fact that the previous Labyrinth of Touhou game did NOT have a real story; it was an excuse to put touhou characters in the same place, with a weird tree of life ass megadungeon, and tenshi being a dumbass "main" antagonist.

This game's story is leaps and bounds ahead of the last one, in that there is a main story that successfully contextualizes the bringing together of these characters, as well as connecting it to other games in the series.

The game's story HEAVILY interconnects 3 pieces of media: Touhou Legacy of a Lunatic Kingdom, Urban Legend in Limbo, and the Hifuu Club stories, so if you like those key characters, you're in for a... treat? Your discretion.

I will say, I really enjoy how they characterize each of the different characters in this game, I think they have a good handle on a majority of the included cast, with some key standouts, and... not really exceptions, just casualties.

That being said, The writing DRAGS. A LOT. There is a FUCKTON of repeating dialogue (this makes sense in story but still kinda sucks to read through trying to get to the new stuff), and the characters resummarize the plot SO MANY TIMES it gets REALLY annoying FAR too quickly.

THAT being said, if you can put up with zero text scrolling and said repeating or repetitive dialogue, the story is worth paying attention to.

VISUALS

This is just a few minor things to do with gameplay that weren't in the gameplay itself

Comparing the visuals between games, this is definitely a step up in a few departments, and a side-step in others

Some of the character designs stayed roughly the same between games, which is usually fine. The ones who got changed and the ones that got added all look really nice, and don't stray too far from mainline designs, but I don't wanna name specifics cuz spoilers and all that.

HOLY SHIT THERE'S SO MUCH VISUAL CLUTTER IN THE UI HOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIIT

To elaborate, there is a lot of things moving on the screen whenever anything happens, be it attacks, screen transitions, etc., which isn't a bad thing? but it's easy to gloss stuff over in your head because of it.

For example, when an enemy uses an attack, there is a pop up that tells you everything about the move (element, damage, targets, etc.). It is SO EASY to mash past this dialogue and leaving you wondering why you got nuked.

GAMEPLAY

The base gameplay has not changed between games, which is a party turn-based rpg, with 8 backliners that you can swap between, and a speed-based turn system.

The biggest change comes from the implementation of a skill tree system, where you gain SP (that hasn't changed) as you level and can put points into the abilities and passives you want to specialize in. So, with the explanation out of the way:

I FUCKING LOVE THIS SKILL TREE SYSTEM SO FUCKING MUCH GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

almost every character, to prevent homogenization, has their own gimmick, which usually takes the form of "stacks of x", which are either consumed or stacked for buffs or skills, depending on what the character wants to be doing. This creates a REALLY engaging gameplay loop, ON TOP of an ALREADY engaging teambuilding from a wide swath of very different characters.

There is SO much love and care put into their toolkits, and I well and truly cannot suck this dev off any harder than I already am.

The systems put in place to power up characters have been given SO MUCH quality of life that was not there before, including a treasure shop (rotating random shop), cloning items, and the Break system, which makes it so much easier and more fun to progress through dungeons with a purpose in mind, be it grinding, progressing, or finding chests. Genuinely the gameplay loop is as good as it's ever been in a game of it's type.

GAMEPLAY BUT AGAIN (The stuff I take some modicum of issue with)

The main draw of the combat in this game is that YOU KNOW EVERYTHING the boss is going to do, and YOU KNOW EVERYTHING your moves can do. What that means, aside from lots of reading, is that the game becomes a puzzle the game is taunting you to solve, which personally I live for.

In practice, there are more than a few things the game just DOESN'T tell you about the mechanics of bosses, or makes more inaccessible.

Just as characters have mechanics and stacks that don't do anything themselves but dovetail into other moves, so do bosses. This is really fucking cool, but also really fucking frustrating when trying to do the mental trigonometry you need to beat a boss or even taking your turns.

There is a difficulty system in place for this game that you can fuck around with. I am telling this right now because THE DEMO, AND THE GAME BY EXTENSION, ARE HARD AS SHIT. AT BASE. The intended difficulty is considered by many people to be "bullshit", end quote.

As someone who lives for a heaping helping of difficulty in my rpgs, I struggled on almost every boss in the demo. However, it was a very satisfying struggle, especially when I beat it, which some games can't even manage. After a lot of trial and error, you do start to get a feel for general damage numbers, as well as what characters are good at doing what even putting aside their whole kits worth of reading. Genuinely, I enjoyed the vast majority of the gameplay.

SOME ADVICE

Read each and every tooltip of the sub-equipment and break items. Every single one is an easter egg, and you might find some you recognize that you wouldn't have even dreamt of, as I have .

Scrutinize every single skill in the game, and every single buff you get. Buffs are literally impossible to beat the game without.

Don't automatically shelve characters you don't care for, since especially early on, you need to use every tool at your disposal.

Grinding isn't technically necessary, but you will need to because some characters have lower growth rates to make up for higher stats or usability. Also it's fun!

The demo is 8-15 hours depending on how much you care about difficulty and completion, which is LOOOOOOOOOOOONG for what it is, so enjoyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Yeah that's it, sorry for rambling lol but I legitimately cannot wait for the full game this summer, I am so fucking excited EEEEEEEEE
