Rhythm Games


The first time I played a rhythm game was at my parents' friend's house. It was a guitar hero game and they had the drum and guitar kit. Eye of The Tiger was playing and i played the drums. It was a formative memory for sure. Now I still regularly play rhythm games in the form of Ensemble Stars Music, because Love Live SIF shut down a couple of years ago.

I used to play rhythm games on the wii at my uni library. My kind senior downloaded the games off the web and loaded it into the wii using some tech magic. I played rhythm haven, taiko, and even guitar hero- though guitar hero with the default wiimote has awful controls and terrible feel to it.

On PC I sometimes play muse dash, but one-off times I've played trombone champ, osu, klang 2, unbeatable (white label), and super crazy rhythm castle. I didn't finish the last one since i played solo and didn't like the gameplay loop of rhythem + combat/defense. I'm a pure rhythm guy myself and I don't like many gimmick in my rhythm

I love Enstars for what it is but I hate the gacha element and any gimmicks that they force onto the expert mode (imo they should be strictly for special beatmaps). I havent full combo's Have You Been Naughty Or Nice on expert exactly because of the slowed down part of the beatmap that drives me up the wall!! get that out of there! Fast-paced changes like Melting Rogue Soul are fine, even holding off notes like in Eccentric Party Night is more favorable than slowing everything down!! That's my rant for the day. I have a lot of opinions on games in general so I always look forward to yapping about them as i is my interest.

I'm currently on a game No-buy until i finish my 100+ game backlog I got from itchio charity bundles. Yes I will get through them all before spending another cent on a game. Yes I will falter but I will try my hardest to stay true to my word. Yes I've found lots of hidden indie gems by playing through the list of games donated for a good cause. Yes you should also donate to a charity game bundle if you have the chance. :::
