[Charu]

Incidentally, that's where I messed up on my best run. Holy moly, that looks unfriendly.

MFDFY's jumpstream is much shorter than A Kidney Stone and the hard patterning only comes at the very last run of the file.

I kinda liked My Fxxkin Desire For You when I played it on SM, albeit some layering inconsistencies

The roll-type patterns in the jumpstream are bad to play in FFR because there isn't any chord cohesion. Also consider do i smile's 16th speedup roll. "Easy patterns", right? But I get goods there more often than the stream after.

Uploading a fix for Dead Throne, hold off on playing for a little bit. Apologies.

[DossarLX ODI]

Actually, Eze raises a good point. Even though those roll type patterns are split heavy, they're arguably one of the easiest jumpstream patterns to use. So someone who has trouble keeping up with that speed would have an easier time than patterns that are physically more demanding; however it is hard to actually hit it without doing some king of 32nd-burst hit.

fixes for Atop The World and Dead Throne uploaded, different note counts so you gotta re-do your shiat

sry guys send all hate mail to me totes my fault :c

[AlexDest]

i hate u owa

[Charu]

Oh dang, ah well, I don't mind playing again.

[SKG_Scintill]

I don't play anymore; all I can say about MFDFY is:

[Xiz]

(Meanwhile)


I really liked Atop.

[ilikexd]

ending patterns are really awkward on my fxxkin desire for you. even though they are "rolly", they are very tricky to hit, and ending it with the 1handed trill which transitions really rigidly is a bit too over the top for my liking since the ending is already spiked enough.

Layering.

what did you layer throughout the whole song? percussion. ok. you could have made the file actually good by stepping what is prominent in the song. the vocals. cmon dude are you that dumb lol

Then, you stick to layering snares pretty much the whole way through the song, completely ignoring the fact that there's /crash cymbals/ which are /louder/ and more /prominent/ than the snares. Why not layer those too? I mean, they're the end of the musical phrase usually, it makes a whole ton of sense layering those in.

And of course, you pick and choose when to layer in the guitar sounds. Don't give me any bullshit about "oh i was worried about difficulty, didn't want a spike". Well, look at your end of the song jesus christ lol.

Shitton of misrhythms and stuff. Cymbal flare in the mid-beginning is fail. Alot of the individual bass kicks inbetween phrases should be 16ths. That piano slowdown in the mid-end? I fucking cringed when I got to that part, didn't feel at all like i was playing anything fucking close to the piano. And you left out the guitar too. THEN you decided to say "fuck that even though it's a really easy part of the song, I'm just going to start concentrating back on the percussion, completely ignoring the defining part of this section, the piano". Oh, and of course, leave out the hi-hat too, you don't want a difficulty spi- ending lol

crap file, no flow, sections don't mesh with each other, feels like you tried to show everyone how to properly make a hard file and just failed at it

i agree with a lot of this (guitar, cymbal shouldve been stepped in slowdown, misrhythms), but i think a lot more can be accomplished with a less hostile tone.

Played FFR for the first time in months to test the hated Middie file.

I didnt find the file unbearable personally.

Although I completely laughed my ass off when I realize he actually stepped a metal song with Miku Hatsune vocals. Dear god pull yourself together man.

i agree wholeheartedly. I just wanted to see what middie sees in doing that to other people

[EzExZeRo7497]

why don't you guys talk about the other files

rising blue lightning is fun

he has two of these in ODIPack 3 (no idea how they were accepted)

when the person who stepped it shits on everybody else's files, expect it to be controversial

Am I back in high school.

Guys just because Middie's notorious for hating on files in his own way doesn't mean it's okay for you guys to try and replicate his mannerisms. That's really something we want to cut back on in SotW threads. Constructive criticism or posting why you didn't like the file is fine. But cut down on the blatant hate just because it's him.

[dragonmegaXX]

Constructive Criticism: step less annoying songs.

[thesunfan]

Rising Blue Lightening is Awesome, as is Atop the World to a lesser extent.

[Xiz]

You know if the file wasn't stepped by Midi I bet $100 that the file would have been treated differently. Jesus people just give it a rest.


And...
