>no threads on /v/>no threads on /vg/>barely any players on Steam even in the most famous gamesPeople say fighting games are dead but I say rhythm games are even more dead.
I've only ever played Osu/EBA/Muse Dash and want to get into a proper rhythm game. Is djmax a good option to start out? I want a modern game mind you, already tried some very old beatmania and it was kinda dated.
>the only thread in the catalogue about the genre is also deadYep it's over.
>>736790754I swear this thread had more than two posts. Did a janny delete everything or is this a second thread?Anyways I'm bad at rhythm games so I'll assume the average person also gets C ranks on Beginner mode and that's why they aren't popular outside of Japan.
>>736790754There's not much to talk about and most players play casually since song drops are spread out and the majority of custom charts are made by people that can't make anything below max level.
>>736790775djmax is very approachable taiko might be the only game that's more approachable >very old beatmania pre-iidx is very jank. i only really got into it when i started playing in arcades. if you want a more modernized feeling konami game maybe try sound voltex
I'm going to get the new rhythm heaven in 3 months
>>736791695It's a bot. You will also recognize repeating replies.
>>736790754the 音楽ゲーム thread is on /jp/ for some reason. >>736791769clone hero has pretty decent custom chartshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Fbehw8eKoo
Devs being obsessed with having their entire tracklist be squeaky-voiced anime girl music keeps these games niche
>>736791887i can never tell which threads are botted when jannies delete on topic threads all the time for no reason
>>736790754>pure gameplay genre>no threads on /v/I wonder why
>>736790754>ordered $400 drum to play taiko>too much work to set it up just to play for a bitFuck, I wish I had enough space and could just have it sit on my desk
>>736790754I've tried some when I went to Japan years ago. My favorite>ChunithmSo fucking good. I bought a Tasoller at release, I've actually more songs on my PC than any JP arcade machine ever had (since the seasonal stuff go away). Also, would like to add >Theatrhythm Final FantasyRhythm game with FF songs? That's just a free printing money machine for me.Thank god I can run it on emulator, my switch is dead. Too bad they don't release any DLCs though.
>>736790754>unbeatable at the top where it rightfully belongsi like you anon.
>>736790754FNF a couple years ago was definitely deserving of a lower tier but I think now they've fixed a ton of the game's issues and it feels a lot better to play. I would move it to a low B in my opinion
Games that put the arcade first are never going to be big on /v/ simply for most people not living in an area where they have access to those games, that said I like Ongeki and I'm glad to live close to an arcade that has it though I'm still middling at it
>>736792207Given how SHMUP threads are like on 4chan, this isn't really as bad as it feels.
>>736794004Yeah I'd rather take no discussion over a crumb of it followed by avatarfags and literal schizos.
>>736793553The experience of having to download separate mods over the internet that are actually standalone games is terrible.
>>736795359that much is true, though I was referring to the game itself and not the modding, though recent updates made the game easier to mod without a custom engine
>>736795416The game itself is barebones. It has what, like 10 songs? As stylish as it is, it is still terrible as a rhythm game.
>>736795534>It has what, like 10 songs?not even close, you're years behind
>>736790754It's the kind of genre where people will go>I spent $500 on my setup and can only play toddler difficulty songs, I'm such a fanOr>I love going to my modern arcade focused on children's games and swatting at the cabinet for 5 minutes while my wife's son plays skeeball Which doesn't lead to interesting discussion, so any thread on it is gunna plod along at a snail's pace
>>736790754>DeadestOutside of arcade releases, maybe.Most of them are really expensive to get into if you want to use the controllers meant for them (Tatacons are as expensive as a Switch 1) or the game itself it's a live service scam (Konami)
>>736796243>Most of them are really expensive to get intoYou can buy most of the base versions for less than $5 and you get 50+ hours of content. This is pretty affordable in my book. If you want all the songs it can get expensive, but you could say the same about any genre with microtransactions.
>>73679553453 now.54 counting the special collab song.
>>736790754I play OSRS every now and then. Does that count?
>>736796771You're bullshitting me. It's 7 weeks. I just looked it up and now there's a weekend and a special collab, but it's still mostly the 7 weeks.I guess you're counting each week as 3 separate songs which is silly since some of them are like 1 minute long and clearly meant to follow up from one another but whatever, still laughable for rhythm game standards.
>>736790754Wacca in S? Really?
>>736790754but mother 3 is highly regarded. what are you talking about? we even had a schizo seethe about our game 24/7 for several years so you know it's good.
>>736796960it's not even the best washing machine game
>>736796895they have erect remixes and pico mixes, The game's over two hours long now and it's still just the demohttps://youtu.be/lgZWX1FIGas
>>736797118>still just the demothe fuck are they doing
>>736790754>no pop’n musicbad tier list
>>736797486what they promised in the kickstarter, too late to go back now with two million dollars in their hands
>>736790754I only ever played one rhythm game and I don't see it mentioned anywhere in the thread.
>>736790754Rhythm Doctor in S? Based as fuck.
>all these people saying OP is based>they dont realize this pic is from reddit
I will die on this hill, Puroseka is good, you don't need to spend a single buck and the gameplay is fun
>>736790775DJMAX Respect V is probably one of the best entry level rhythm games>keyboard centric>4, 5, 6 and 8 buttons modes>lots of charts for all skill levels>lenient timing>200+ songs in the base game>goes 80% off very often>good production value for a rhythm game
>>736799087>Too expensive when not on sale.>Always online DRM.No respect for customers time and money.
>>736799087Since you know the game anon, how many hours does it take to become proficient at 6b? With 4b it felt like the notes were extensions of myself, everything was automatic and the flow was really fun. Now I'm trying to get into 6b. It feels mechanic, artificial and not fun. I'm 5 hours in.
>>736798776i thought it was from a youtuber
>game starts with you hitting notes for the drums>then suddenly switches to piano>then vocals>then drums again>and so onI hate this shit
>>736790754If you are a rhythm chad, post your S clears. (Full clear 0 mistakes.)
>>736799281That depends on you. I felt the same way when I moved from 6b to 8b, but after forcing myself to play in that mode for a few days, it started to feel natural. So, my advice would be to not give up and keep playing until it clicks.
>>736800428You mean full combos? I'm still improving.
>>736800736Nice. Is this the Touhou game?
*sip*
>>736800830Are you fucking retarded? I put a filename with the game's name, you couldn't even bother googling it? Holy fucking shit anon what a fucking disservice you are to this board.
>>736800862Could've used just "Phantasmal Lost" or something.
>>736800961What?
>>736800830Yes, Danmaku Kagura. Really fun game, but the Lunatic charts can get really stupid. Amazing soundtrack too.
MY KICK PEDAL KEEPS SLIDING ACROSS THE FLOOR IM LOSING IT>>736799281i find 8b easier than 6b tbqh
>>736790754I bought Rift of the Necrodancer purely so I could use the editor to make my own charts. At this point I've played more custom songs than actually base game charts. It's interesting that they made a pretty unique rhythm game with Crypt but went for a more traditional chart game for the sequel ,but hey, it's still fun as fuck.I also really enjoyed Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory but I wish there were more coop charts.
>>736802379>8b easier than 6bWait how??
>>736796760>If you want all the songsI simply refuse to support this outdated practice anymore. Any rhythm game worth playing on my computer needs to have readily available custom charts, especially if I'm going to need a 200 dollar hunk of plastic to play it.
>>736802432I hate custom charts. At least from my experience with things like Osu and FNF they are vastly inferior to charts from professional games. Especially fucking Osu holy shit I hate that game.
>>736802432I can't even being to sightread a Rift chart.
>>736802878>custom chartsIf you enjoy eating shit there'll always be osu for free
>>736802896>>736803082>professionally made levels are better than middle school timmy's meme levelsNo shit. The appeal of those games are to autistically push them to the limit, which most people don't care about. What the custom/fan-created charts need are curators to wade through the sea of garbage.
>>736802878>Any rhythm game worth playing on my computer needs to have readily available custom chartsI sure love going through mountains of trash to find a custom chart that's not fucking shit.
>>736802896you pretty much have to learn who the good charters are.
>>736803082You can simply choose to only play good charts. Acting like only the fat retarded nips that specifically work for that developer are the only people capable of making good charts is ridiculous and you know it. >>736803252It can be hard to filter out the good from the bad depending on the game for sure. If you get into the scene for the game you can usually see what good players are playing on their youtubes or in the forums though.
>>736790754>on steamGo play on ps4 or nintendo consoles/handhelds. Ouendan 2 is imo the very best rhythm game.Also go play Bits and Bops. It's a B at best, but still fun enough
>>736803325>>736803239Except games with custom charts are never curated based on quality, but rather based on difficulty autism.Making a good chart is not easy. You need to have gone through music school, and you need proper licensing to give you the resources to integrate the note sounds into the song. You can't just chart some garbage osu beatmap where the note sounds are wacky horns and the song is just background noise unrelated to the notes, then have it be circlejerked to the #1 bestest beatmap of the month.
>>736790754Shmups are the most dead of all. No schizos and avatarfags to circlejerk themselves = no threads
>>736790754I'm only playing rhythm games if they have touhou songs.No touhou? Shit rhythm game.
Why is Beat Saber never mentioned in rhythm game discussions?>>736803721All of them have touhou songs.
>>736803559What type of curation did you think I was talking about?>music schoolLol. Lmao.
>>736803597You're really begging for attention, but I think you'll generally find that dead insular circle jerks go uninterrupted, while actually alive ones are targeted by malicious shitposters.
>>736803779DJMAX RESPECT V doesn't have any AFAIK and that's not the only one in the list.
>>736803721>enjoy touhou songs>but not the ones usually inserted in rhythm gamesI love the BGM from the games, but they only ever insert vocalic shit like bad apple or cirno's math class which just sounds like generic anime slop
>>736803891I don't care for attention, I'm saying it how it was
>>736803721There's a literal Touhou rhythm game baptized and approved by ZUN.
>>736802718hold notes tend to end up on the effect buttons so there's a much more natural separation between the parts you play with your thumbs vs your index fingers. charts also just have more room to run across the keyboard so you dont end up with as many awkward 2 part melodies https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cjz9UnHda_E&list=RDCjz9UnHda_E&start_radio=1https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jkokv2hHYPc
>>736790754muse dash is pretty fun, although anything beyond difficulty level 8 is incomprehensible to me
>>736804231You've been crying for two threads in a row now hoping someone that's actually interesting will come in here and give you attention. Either discuss the games or shut up
also split spacebar improves djmax so much holy shit
>>736804345I thought it was repetitive and yeah the game's entire gimmick is making the charts unreadable. I hate that and prefer the honest and clean games that show you the chart with clarity and let you deal with it.
>>736804423>two threadsI wasn't in the first thread but go off, leaving now
>>736804431Holy shit anon I just rebinded the left side track to spacebar and the right one to the fn key right next to it and it's much better thanks. I was using the pinkie finger to do the side tracks up until now but I'll start using the thumbs now. This might lock me out of 8b but fuck it hand posture hurts so much in this game because of this stupid gay nigger side tracks, what a shitty gimmick I wish this game didn't have it
>>736804423Autist
Cheeky bump
>>736802896>unbelievable dogshit or dante must die mode>tiny little sprinkle of well made chartsIt happens every single timeThen you get stuff like one of the best guys working on rift of the necrodancer gets hired by the devs so he stops making custom charts
>>736804431I got on of these. Makes playing 8b very comfy.
>>736790754Rhythm games are objectively the biggest waste of time genre ever. Just learn a real instrument instead.
>>736790754why are there no good nsfw rhythm games?closest is picrel
>>736799087>Give Blue Archive keysounds after not giving Tekken and Falcom any keysounds and halfassing Nexon and Maple's>Don't give Ongeki keysounds after giving EZ2DJ, Muse Dash and Arcaea keysoundsWhy is DJMax like this with collab DLCs
>>736808340>Don't give Ongeki keysoundsits over...
>>736805913aaa
>>736800428pc rhythm games have no oomph. after playing ongeki everything else is rather disappointing
Does the /1cc/ server still exist? Back when I used shitcord, they leaked a playable version of Chunithm months before its official arcade release, unreleased tournament songs, all of it straight from SEGA’s servers, it was kino as fuck watching it unfold in real timeSadly I ended up losing my NEET status and I'm offline as fuck now, and I lost my account
>>736808340That probably depends on whether or not they have access to the project files for the tracks. These should be more readily available for music from rhythm games, so the lack of keysounds in the Ongeki DLC is strange.
>>736811124e7xffWFf9p
>>736791963guiltyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n96968cMIWY
>>736812827Much appreciated!
>>736810450Why? What do these arcade machines have that PC lacks? I've never played one, so genuinely asking.Is it the sound? I doubt they have better sound than my headset.Is it the screen? Unlikely since I have an OLED.Is it the controls? That's just a matter of finding the right peripheral.
>>736814272mouse feels genuinely awful as an input. pressing keys with fingers feels impotent.i'm not including games that require a home version of an arcade peripheral for obvious reasons
Did they even finish the Groove Coaster Future Performers storyI know it’s not a big deal but it’s so insulting to pay full price and get hit with a “will continue in update”
>>736791963trvkeif more games adopted the guitar hero approach the genre would've been more popularthen again FnF was and still is popular with kids
>>736790754I like rhythm games but I also just don't know what to say about them usually>I hit the buttons really hard>You have any advice for me?>Yeah hit more buttons until you get better
LIGHTNING BUUUUUUUUUUUMP
>>736816161sounds like a mechanically boring game
>>736814272I played all the popular ones at an anime con years ago and wasn't all that impressed with any of them. Funny enough the one I liked the most was Project Diva.
>>736790754>rhythm game tier list>no rock band or guitar hero on it at allyeah its been dead for some time
>>736817829Not exactly. You could still talk about what songs or charts are good, but it's just very based on your reflexes and ability to learn to execute patterns so a lot of it is just "git gud". It's fun to press the buttons hard though, very satisfying to roll the keys or do complex patterns.
>>736818093It's a rhythm game tier list duh
how do people play 2 button rhythm games? Taiko and Muse Dash are way too fucking hard compared to any bemani clone for me
>>736816161Yeah. A lot of videogames are like that. Excellent experiences to live through but difficult to share with others, the only way is unironically shilling
Beat Banger got an update. So I'm happy.
>>736823653>one level every year or so>still 5 levels leftjesus christ
>>736823061the trick is to actually use 4 or 6 buttons
They make rhythm games. They make fighting games. When was the last time they made an RTS game?
>>736823983I get a craving for rhythm games every so often, so it's good for me.
>>736823061>2 button>look inside>4+ inputs per button
Buy a CRKD guitar or wait for Yuancon new controller, Gitadora bros?
