Sorry for starting so many threads - last one for now, I promise ;v;.
Anyway, I like flying around and shooting bright shiny things at other things that fly around and shoot bright shiny things in odd patterns that are usually near-impossible to avoid. I definitely get more enjoyment from the graphics - but there are a few gameplay elements that I'm picky about (powerups, health/lives, special abilities, etc)
You may or may not already know that I prefer shooters that involve human pilots (playing as a person who can fly rather than a machine/aircraft). Espgaluda is my favorite vertical, and Deathsmiles and Cotton 2 are at a tie for my favorite horizontal.
Classics like Galaga and Gradius implement impressive game design technique, but they don't really fit my casual-gaming taste. In other words, I prefer a shooter that isn't too difficult so that I can immerse myself without concentrating too hard on finishing the game. Basically, modern shooters are calm and peaceful Disney rides while classics are extreme rollercoasters.
I would be up to playing a few Touhou games, but my machine is not powerful enough to run them efficiently. And I'm done with using virtual machines (for reasons besides making games in Clickteam Fusion).
