Someone make this file as hard as like Vrofl

Re: Someone make this file as hard as like Vrofl

Basically, there's no definitive pattern in the music to step to.

So ask, why are you stepping it?

[edit]
Also, we judge from three measures because you tend to use patterns in all your files that are awkward for any type of style, whether it's new or not.

Generally, step artists do not deviate from their original style much. TBH, I don't like any of your files in-game; and I haven't high expectations for this file, from what it seems.

Re: Someone make this file as hard as like Vrofl

Scythe was one of my first files. Accepted under older judging. If you want to make a better V2, be my guest.

P.S. thanks for judging my file from 3 measures. That part has been simplified down 3 times - this is just the newest version. The music isn't clear enough - going in the back are continuous 32nds, but you can't hear those unless you have rly good speakers. Basically, there's no definitive pattern in the music to step to.

The music is perfectly fine lmfao I'm currently stepping this for Stepmania, and I can hear everything. Use headphones when you step.

And if that was seriously simplified three times (I highly doubt it was), then I'd love to see the V1.

That said, I seriously need to step something for FFR. Maybe I'll step this hehu.

You guys are idiots.
Almost all of you have like no experience of stepping (except torrent) and you make attacks on a stepfile artist and his file, from which you have only seen 3 measures.
Oni_paranoia, let's see your files? You shouldn't talk if you can't step yourself.
If you can't do patterns, don't just bitch about it and claim he's a bad stepfile author because if it. It's just that YOUR bad at the pattern. GOD YOU GUYS FFR IS SERIOUS.

You don't need to have stepping experience to know what a fun file is Sona. After playing a file, you can tell if it was fun or not, even if you have no stepping experience.
You stepped 300, I don't believe you have stepping experience either based off that horrible file.
I dislike Xandertrax files, I won't flame them or anything, they aren't horrible, not even bad, they're okay, nothing awesome though, I find scythe to be his best file personally, I hate the patterns in Sonata Quasi.

Sona, he said Xander's files are bad, Oni never once claimed his files were better or good at all. You have no reason to ask to see his files, he simply gave his opinion on Xan's files.

Yes but it helps when claiming someone is bad at stepping.

You stepped 300, I don't believe you have stepping experience either based off that horrible file.

First, that file's not really as bad as people make it out to be. Second, that file is old as crap. Third, I have other files you know I also have two other queue'd files, which I accidentally asked to be removed (tass claims i did at least).

I dislike Xandertrax files, I won't flame them or anything, they aren't horrible, not even bad, they're okay, nothing awesome though, I find scythe to be his best file personally, I hate the patterns in Sonata Quasi.

Note that I have no problem with this. It's just when people claim he sucks at stepping and have no proof/experience to back it up, it kinda pisses me off.

If it wasn't, so many people wouldn't have flamed it by now.

Whenever someone says "LET'S SEE YOU DO BETTER LOL" is funny, because chances are you do it to something, yourself. Music? Movies? Games? Webdesign? Yeah, let's see you do those better. Everybody's a critic, you're almost damn guaranteed no exception. This is that kind of case. People will criticise; and if you aren't ready to take it, you shouldn't be making things in the first place. Blending into the crowd and not taking any blame is easier, anyways.

Tera is right, you don't need stepping experience to know what a fun file is. If anything, you should know equally as well, because the files are FOR the players. I don't step, but I know the difference between a fun file, an interesting file, a challenging file, and a garbage/awkward file. I've been exposed to enough **** and I'm decent enough at this goddamned arrowsmash game that I think I can criticise them myself. Oni falls into this case, as well.

Last I knew, Xandertrax wasn't or isn't good enough to even do FGOs very well, so someone who lacks that skill making a file that hard (re: EnR and Hardkore Atomic, etc.) is a bit more ironic than anything. How would Xander know what's awkward and what isn't? Tell me that.

Re: Someone make this file as hard as like Vrofl

okay, first of all, you don't have to be good at something to be a critic. there are lots of people in this world who have good taste and can actually appreciate the finer works in life. anyone who uses the "well let's see you do better" excuse is insecure and too blinded by stepmania culture

I would not consider xandertrax a good stepartist, but iirc teh tricky techno had the potential to be decently fun despite a few quirks.

now about "awkward" patterns. everyone here apparently is not clear about what constitutes and awkward pattern. a pattern is awkward when one or more of the following conditions are met:
1. the steps do not fit the music well
2. the steps seem to place "imaginery" parts in the music that don't exist
3. the speed of the file in addition to its position make it nearly impossible to hit correctly and accurately

of course there are exceptions but these are generally it

Ive been steppin since DDR Extreme was released.. jus thought Id throw that out and also im a pad player, so i pretty much like to spread index/pad patterns, something Xandertrax lacks (not a bad thing FFR wise)

Patterns that feel awkward to hit while playing vary from player to player, but there are those that a good majority of people have trouble with. Those sections of files people say "feel weird" can fall under this, too. Not just file technicality.

Also, do you even play? Seriously

Re: Someone make this file as hard as like Vrofl

because people have different tastes. summarized by points 1 and 2 (well 2 is if you're stupid)

...but there are those that a good majority of people have trouble with. Those sections of files people say "feel weird" can fall under this, too. Not just file technicality.

these fall under point 3. sry <3

Also, do you even play? Seriously

how the hell can I be a good stepper if I don't even play? seriously

why do you doubt me so? I thought you loved me ;_;

I haven't seen a single score or anything from you, but I don't lurk ODI. Damned if I'm supposed to know.
