Re: Songs of the Week (May 11, 2013)
1. I was referring to the song being more interesting than Faint Breath.
2. I can read every chart in the game comfortably at a 2.0 speed mod. Even Sleep and Do I Smile.
3. That's being an elitist saying it's only good for low level practice when you can't just enjoy the feeling of hitting the chart.
4. Alloyus put little to no effort into Sleep and it shows so radiantly it hurts.
Here's a few screen shots from an extremely similar SM, from Alloyus himself mind you, that shows it's lack of pattern variation and poor pattern choices overall, among other things.










And I purposely ignored the intro. Which is the same thing.
Notice all the anchors, the really bad transitions, and the overall fact it's literally just a dump of every sound he hears at once instead of actually trying to emulate the song. He even messes up transitioning into the main bulk of the song in my opinion, but that is kind of subjective.
Sleep is a prime example of some of the poorest charting choices ever made for an FFR chart. I cannot stress how bad I feel the chart is, and how horrible it is it's in game. I just can't.
Also, don't take this the wrong way, Alloyus is capable of stepping a good chart, and I earnestly think this isn't a representation of what he can actually do, it just shows some of the current stepping meta, and how this sort of stuff is more acceptable than a chart Jake actually put effort into, simply because it's more difficult and "good" for scoring.
