![]() People always ask me if I memorized it or something, because it's too fast for them to read.

![]() I would say it becomes a matter of developing muscle memory and visual reflex for certain combinations of arrows and/or patterns such that we learn to map them to our fingers and also learn to adjust hitting speed depending on the tempo of the music the steps follow.

![]() Haha. Well. I actually memorized pattern, I got used to see patterns repeating.
at first I just played what I saw, then get used to see the repetitions, Then I could play faster and faster without missing, then the jumps.... now stuck at jumpstreams xD Just a matter of time, I like your reading comparison, I'd say it's pretty close ![]() |

![]() One thing interesting about this comparison is that study which proves we read words according to their first and last letters. For me, seeing patterns like runningmen and crossovers is sort of a similar experience; rather than reading each arrow, I see it and think "CROSSOVER! Do the pattern!" and my fingers just sort of react automatically.
Nice analogy. |

![]() Mine say pretty much all of the above.
Anything ranging from "How do you see the notes?" to "You are a god." Theres even an occasional "You memorized this beforehand, didn't you?" |

![]() I tell them I look for patterns in the notes. And I get...
"You need to get a life" "Those narrow Asian eyes probably help you see the arrows more easily" "You don't hit the notes, you mash" "You memorized the notes" "You're insane" "Stop showing off" "Holy crap" Or a combination of the above. And I hope to god the second one was just a joke.

![]() people always bring up the "did you memorize that?"
at least in ITG in FFR, the only time anyone's ever said something, they just asked "what are the different colors for", luckly that person was in band and understood what a 4th note and 8th note and all that stuff. |
