And lol, if you think I'm jealous about getting known on Twitch or whatever you're even trying to get at, there's probably a reason why I wasn't going to take your comment seriously. /salt

there are people posting videos constantly at a level that you probably wouldn't even consider worth looking at because you've been shielded within this community, where even the lowest-end players here would be better than 99%+ of the people who don't make their presence known or are exclusively on something like reddit and not any other sub-community, so just because you don't see them doesn't mean they don't exist, much like any other gaming community where you only see the front-facing players and want to declare things inactive/dead; doesn't work that way it's also somewhat ironic that you yourself mention that this is the game "that everyone recognizes but no one plays and will probably stay that way throughout the game's existence", yet you have an entry in AGDQ yourself with that point of futility that you yourself exercised. additional thing: it's very easy to get people involved and interested in the game, you just need to tie it into something that people like. TaroNuke/puurokulho aren't reaping the benefits of using their work ethic in making StepMania look awesome and more appealing by tying elements of Undertale - one of Puuro's videos is on pace to eclipse 750k views in under 8 months, and a video of MIKO playing said chart is about to eclipse 250k views in that same time period. these aren't people with super established fucking names to themselves for other things, these are people who are smart and know where to target. everyone who wants to make StepMania again needs to stop targeting this niche community of high-end players and actually branch out into things that are inventive, unique, and awesome. mindless smashing your brains out to hyper-relevant charts doesn't do the job - it's impressive, but won't hold attention and want to get people involved. |

I'm kinda bad but I always watch random stepmania vidyas and comment on them, getting hyped. I miss diamondcrafter even though he was pretty annoying, I had fun getting hyped over his stuff heh.
There are tons of new players and alot of FFR players low key try to get more players and help them out, I love seeing walrusizer on the stepmania reddit answer questions about how to get better with "play more" makes me lol every time. I think the key thing is we need to get everyone onto these forums cause it's basically the central hub.. It's a shame, staiain did great at agdq but imo he could have explained better how to get into the game, the FFR forums etc.. At the moment there's no real central community, gotta get everyone here ![]() Another key thing is getting people to feel accomplished for what they've done, it's the reason people post videos and brag board threads and such. I love how FFR announces when you hit milestones on the front page, I always hop to people's profiles and get hype when they get milestones. |

Even so, osu has like 100x as much content as stepmania, in terms of random things like videos, Osumania world championships etc.. And it's been out for a few years, comparatively to stepmania...

but i'm tired of everyone spewing shit about how this this and that will help. you're actually someone with the talent that could do it outside of mindlessly smashing keys and hoping it catches attention because you've got the ability to develop and program shit. utilize that ability like you are now and do more things that the current SM devs couldn't. |

More exposure, more people aware of the game, more people playing it, more people making content for it like songs, themes, memes n dreams
Lol man I've seen people sitting there playing osu while I'm walking down the hallway at school |

personally, i was really glad to see the general skill level involved in stepmania go through the fuckin roof after a certain point. before getting back into stepmania, the last pack i probably downloaded was ODI2 or something years ago. then i got back into it, realized i was missing out real hard when i downloaded all the yolomanias and nuclear blast JS packs, which seem to be mostly post-2012/2013ish. anyway, i forgot what my point was stepmania cool kids club 2016 |
