PERMS OK
SYNC OK
1.071-1.488: While it's ok to approximate the first notes here to 24ths (they're 32nds in the song), it's weird that the last notes are also 24ths given that it's not the same sound at all.
2.133: Ghost note. Goes on 2.258. Also relatively strange layering decision considering the stuff at 0.509 and 0.884 for example aren't layered yet they're as clear/loud if not more than this.
2.508: Why is this layered but not 5.507 (random example).
15.192: Why a jump?
20.440: This doesn't match 21.434 yet it's charted the same, (24)(12).
28.963: Bit harsh on the left.
33.924: Why this as a jump and not 34.174?
1:09.401: Super awkward.
1:13.275-1:13.775: Whew, this is wayy spiky for what it goes to.
1:25.510: Very offsync.
Unfortunately this chart plays a lot like a constant 16ths flow with arbitrarily selected sounds being layered as bursts. While some ideas make sense locally for specific sounds, as a whole the chart simply doesn't feel coherent. Given that the concerns are primarily regarding the general structure of the chart and the lack of consistency w.r.t. the song's intensity, it would require a significant amount of work to squeeze this as a quality V4 of this difficulty range.

>Perms, metadata, sync good
00:28.807 - Brutal for the overall arching difficulty for the file given the immense back-to-back strain across both hands, with manip jumptrill on right hand faster than the usual 16th speed, and the minijack exit out of this pattern.
00:37.923 - Not the friendliest exit pattern =/
00:39.047 - RATOv2 [Long-Version] actually did this section easier for emphasis lol
00:57.036 -> 00:57.661 - Some real crazy left-hand jack bias on this section in-particular; minijack in left column followed by a 16th 3-note jack in down column, back-to-back. Wouldn't have an issue with it if it was for emphasis or PR, but the 2nd set of jacks in the down column are weaved tightly into a burst.
01:09.401 - This is hell.
01:13.275 - Again, similarly to 00:28.807, brutal for the overarching difficulty of the file. This chart likes to downplay itself with 16th minijacks and then feels like hitting the player in the most unexpected of locations, because the song plays out identically across the song, but the chart does not.
This song has been stuck in batch purgatory for multiple months (years) at this point with multiple judges having passed on it and I can understand why. It's because while there is for one-half, a comfortable watering down of notes involved in the file to merit such a different version for difficulty, there is a quantifiable level of structure and layering choices that are hard to address. The biggest one I can offer from my notes, is that the overall drive of the song is the same across the board but this chart does not provide that and instead, provides small pockets of FGO patterns seemingly randomly for emphasis and leaving other sections with 16th minijacks no harder than FMO.
Furthermore, addressing layering issues, a good example is 00:02.071, where you have 32nds up until the 16th. But, the following 32nd is a much harder hitting note than the first 32nd used, so it begs the question why layered with 32nds coming out of the 4th, when for emphasis-sakes (and focusing on the heaviest sounds which is common with down-sizing the difficulty of a file), should be 32nds starting on the 16th, going into the 8th [14] jump? There are many instances of this which are hard to comment on since it collides with Stepauthor interpretation of the file and cannot be parsed apart from that.
In conclusion, this is a reject from me not for it being a v4, but because there's structural inconsistencies across the file and sub-optimal layering/patterning choice that would be held to higher scrutiny for the sake of being a v4, of which this file unfortunately falls short on. This would be a reject or at a very minimum, a very heavy CQ/FR flag if it were a v1.
