Anxiety Sadness Game Pack

[tasted]

Warning: This simfile-pack should only be played when the gamer feels hopeless, is in despair, sad, lonely, anxious, betrayed, deceived or frustrated.
The pack is very easy and I've chosen to make it easy because when you are in some of the following conditions I have mentioned, you have to restart yourself with softer charts.


SONGLIST

Alice is Dead - Alice is Dead 3 - Medium 6

Final Fantasy VII - Anxious Heart - Easy 3, Medium, 5

Gears of War 2 - Autumn of Mankind - Easy, 2

Final Fantasy IX - Bran Bal - Medium, 6

K.O.L.M.I.A.M. - Counting Down the Seconds - Hard 7, Challenge, 10

Kingdom Hearts - Dearly Beloved - Medium, 4

Medieval 2: Total war - Did They Have to Die Today - Beginner, 1

Final Fantasy VIII - Fragments of Memories - Easy, 3

Suikoden 2 - Imprisoned Town - Medium, 6

Rome: Total War - Lost Souls - Beginner, 1

Final Fantasy IX - Terra - Medium, 6

Chrono Trigger - The Last Day of the World - Beginner, 1

id prescribe some s̶e̶l̶f̶ ̶h̶a̶r̶m̶ Anxiety Sadness pack

edit; ill actually download and post some feedback. It's easy for us newfags to be dismissed, so ill give it a look. Feedback No.1, work on pack names

[CAFO]

OK feedback time
the files aren't depression consoling easy, they lean towards... boring
no one at this skill level is gonna be browsing these forums im afraid, i mean stepping stone of stepmania is 10 x harder, as well as better made :>
im being really harsh, but to produce good files you need to play alot of different files and be at decent skill, so you get to know whats 'fun' in a file
but keep on playing, and trying, and you'll produce some good files someday

I read this thread 10 times and still can't believe what i just read

[Arntonach]

If I was depressed I'd try to listen to some happy or catchy songs, so I can get better. But that's just me.

[kommisar]

requesting pack name change to "blubbering vagina mini pack"

[TC_Halogen]

Come on now.

If you have nothing nice to say, don't anything at all.

[tasted]

Well, at least some of you had the time to download it.

I know the charts are very easy and might not be 100 percent accurate, but I have gained my inspiration from Flashbulb - Counting Snow, here on FFR. I think that is the best song on FFR, it crushes all the others steps on the whole FFR, because when I played it, it wasn't happy hardcore! It wasn't hardcore happy! It wasn't dubstep.. It was something else! Something that I thought would never exist on a site like FFR.

And that's when the idea of this pack came to life.

Come to think about it, I'm going straight away to Counting Snow for a more deeper understanding of it, which may reflect in future packs!

That is an interesting thought. It reminds me of that meme when Barney from how i met your mother is featured in a .jpeg and you can read "When I'm sad I stop being sad and be awesome instead" or something like that.

[drizzleRomanceGirl]

I personally agree with the idea that being in a minor state of depression can lead to positive thinking down the line when someone views media reflecting his or her mood. It makes me feel a whole lot better when I watch videos where I can relate to my own negative state. That is to say, I don't think listening to depressing songs will directly make anyone feel better, but they can help people in a sour mood calm down when they see or listen to other people who express similar feelings.

I like the idea of creating a stepmania pack full of sad songs to help alleviate feelings of despair, so thank you.

ok I wasn't nice.



but the effort in this pack is seriously lacking. the idea behind it is almost satirical, and is borderline insulting to people actually going through depression.

You should try my pack.

[tasted]

I think Kommisar has some valid points regarding the quality and stepping. However, his philosophical ideas is highly debatable, a debate I do not want to engage, because it would end up far away from stepmania, ffr, this pack and this forum. Instead I will look into his youtube-videos, or if someone else has uploaded his sims, try and study why he is regarded as one of the most desirable simfile-makers. Last time I wasn't impressed, hopefully, I will be this time.


And goldstinger I will try your pack, go through song by song, and eventually write a report on your thread.

[kommisar]

i could argue the philosophy of it but it'd probably apply to much more than just stepmania

[choof]

i've stepped a file before for someone who was going through a depressing time in their life
you should throw it into this pack

[alloyus]

I think a pack full of sad songs is a fantastic idea.

[tasted]

one thing that i've forgot to mention is that.. how does depression or sadness sound?

For me, I think the selection of this pack is in somewhat representable for a sad or anxious sound. But for Choof or Kommisar or anyone else in this thread might think that Beethoven's 9th Symphony is more accurate to put in a pack with a theme of sadness.

But how can you even suggest that Beethoven's 9th Symphony is a depressing song? Someone might ask.

Well.. this is my answer for you :

This scene totally changed my approach against 9th..
