    Re: The Video Game Mega Pack 4 (RELEASED!)

    If I picked Baba Yetu entirely because I like the song but was able to, as you admit, make a "pretty fun" file out of it, is that nessecarily a problem?
    For clarification I'm not being defensive, I 100% own the fact I stepped it just because I like the song.
    I'm just wondering if people think something is wrong with that, because I've seen comments to that effect about a number of songs in this pack.

Not that there's anything wrong with that (Baba Yetu's pretty fun and it's nice to see the MvC2 soundtrack get some justice), but it seems like some people picked the songs first before wondering if they were steppable.
        Posted to say that so far I agree with this. Some files felt like they were missing something to stand out and really are getting played for nostalgic music choice alone (which isn't really a bad thing, I'm guilty of it too lol)

          I dont think there's a problem with that. If you can make a good file out of the song, then its okay, and baba yetu for example I feel was nicely done and enjoyable enough.

          There are a few files for example that the song did not make for a fun stepfile, as I've mentioned in my reviews a few things. At the same time though, I'm of the belief of stepping files that the author themselves would enjoy, so honestly as long as the author likes it there'll be at least one person who enjoys it being included in the pack, and given that it was accepted the judges likely enjoyed it sufficiently too. Thereby quite a few enjoyed it enough for it to be included, even if some commenters didn't enjoy a file it still follows my rule of "creator (can be extender to pack assemblers) enjoying file = worth including in pack".

            I stepped the MvC2 ost because I thought it would give me something fun to step with a simple outcome.

            And let's be honest, who doesn't step stuff just because they liked the tune without any regard to how the steps will come out. It's happened many many times. Just because you may see some implication of that in this pack, doesn't make it a new thing.

                    Eh lol I actually mispelled a lot of songs and had to redo graphics for some of them. XD

                    I remember when I first did the graphics for bmah's "Try Again" file, I had to redo them completely because I labeled the song as "Try Harder" and somehow lost the PST for the original lmfao. At least in this one I just mixed up a couple of the words. Still looks good. :P

                        There's nothing wrong with it, hell I'd be a bit confused if you didn't like the music you stepped. I'm just saying that a few of the files didn't have much to stand out on.

                          post-dumps abstractly represent the existential nihilism that the song invokes in the listener with negative space, evoking the ephemeral nature of the mind - the journey of stepmania begins in hope yet soon becomes corroded into a dialectic of futility, leaving only a sense of dread and the unlikelihood of a new synthesis

                              I love Baba Yetu (the song) I listen to it every night before I go to bed

                              File's coo too, but the song is amazing.
