well you have to look at the reasons why each one does it otherwise it's an appeal to false middle

I've been somewhat involved in nearly every major rhythm game community except osumania -- ddr, iidx, itg, pump, guitar hero, o2jam, djmax, pop'n -- they're all fine with the exception of IIDX and Ohio/Midwest DDR purists (who are possibly even worse but that's a separate rant)

[NeoMasterPie]

don't even get me fucking started about ohio ddr+itg

[gold stinger]

please enlighten me about ohio/midwest ddr+itg purists I want to hear more about that or at least the pointed in the correct direction to find out more about that

[NeoMasterPie]

it's really not limited to just the purists

just imagine astronomy before the copernican revolution but replace astronomy with music games and the earth with ddr/konami

[Arch0wl]

it's like on top of really cold weather, rarity of good food, fucking up national elections and annoyingly good football teams, you have the most obnoxious ddr purists who dragged their feet harder about the competitive scene's bar usage than alabama about interracial marriage

it's like there's a hyperbolic time chamber at cedar point where everyone enters to spend 2 years becoming the most annoying people you've ever met

[Wayward Vagabond]

Hahahaha

[kommisar]

few ppl on my facebook were salty about it


oh no your superior rhythm game didn't get featured. instead it was an open source game with community content for a fundraiser how DARE YOU

Out of all these rhythm games, which would you say is your favorite?

[Nano Desu]

I didn't realize there where even communities for commercial rhythm games other than maybe sdvx. I mean, lr2 is basically better IIDX isn't it? I mean I might be wrong never played IIDX but AFAIK its just pay to play with no user content and doesn't go to a high level like LR2/simplebms can

Do you think there is a skill cap in being annoying? It'd be interested in seeing the act of being annoying taken to the competitive level.

Stepmania, BMS (LR2/Osumania counts) and ITG

they're customizable. I can do so much on them and with them.

if I like pop'n controllers, I can make a gigantic pop'n controller for SM. and that's exactly what my friend and I are doing so that I can play ridiculous index 8-button double charts.

if I like 10 keys, I can use two keyboards and play keyboard pump doubles.

but on the other games, I am limited to what the game developers give me and have to train using their awkward interface layouts. a lot of songs on these games only have a burst of hard patterns anyway, so I'm spent playing 2 minutes of shit for an actual 20 seconds of content I want, whereas on say Stepmania I can just isolate that part.

there's so much versatility that I can't do on the proprietary games.

Please make me one. I'll pay whatever.

This is the guy you wanna contact: https://www.facebook.com/organist.torres

I ordered the buttons and drew the prototype/dimensions, he's actually doing the woodworking and such. Since we have the same dimensions it'd be easy for him to replicate another one.
