This illustration, in my opinion, is the most haunting piece of art to come out of Arcaea. Let me explain. #arcaea 1/12

@guy_kun 明知故问

Who da hell made this chart?

@GENDA_Kataoka おめでとうございます、音ゲーコーナーも増設して最高です😊

本日、GiGOが上海に初出店致しました！本店舗は中国における「二次元文化の聖地」と言われているショッピングモール「百聯ZX創趣場」内に 開店いたします。

@guy_kun I find recent maimai update, about DX rating to add 1 point for each AP, is perfect to differentiate top players and still keep most of player to keep their pace going, there are people grinding for 1 note while most cannot even clearing the thing, like I just can’t do BYD pentim

Since there's a lot of comments either way to a fairly off-the-cuff comment about a specific (non-lowiro) release, I'll add a bit more of my thoughts: Within reason does not mean no difficulty! Difficulty is ok! It's how long it takes to reach that ceiling, be it months, years, decades...? Consider that the higher a ceiling is, the fewer people can reach it and the more you make contents for a large amount of people that cannot play it. Completionism suffers! It's all good saying 'sure just make it for people to enjoy that can and everyone else can play a lower difficulty', in a music game you are leaving part of the game 'incomplete' and not playable by most people when you create vast amounts of contents that are only for top rankers, this really sucks. Some people have lower ability at music games, that's fine, but for someone trying, playing for a long time, high level contents *should* by design be in reach, not only to athlete-level players. 'Not getting a max score' is ok right? How about 'not being able to clear it, which is the 'minimum bar' that a game sets, this sucks right? It sucks to not be able to clear something. Ability to understand/ apply yourself vs physical ability. Sure, reading, understanding difficulty makes a lot of sense, but games that takes years of training to *physically* press buttons fast enough are absolutely limiting their accessibility and the ability of a 'normal' (remember, not unskilled) player to ever reach that... There is also obviously scoring in music games, higher score means you did better, it is something that can be chased, however when people push on the score cap of your game by perfecting everything, you shouldn't raise the floor to keep up with them, leaving most players behind. It's ok to make contents that is hard to get a perfect score on, as long as you don't raise it so far that average 'skilled' players cannot even play or enjoy the contents. This is absolutely the critical part I want to moan about. I think it's also important to understand that *making hard contents is not difficult*, it's very easy to go into any custom chart game and place a lot of dense, fast notes representing every sound in a song, that have crazy movements, crazy stamina requirements and memorization. This isn't hard, pushing the limits in a game is extremely easy. The problem is pushing limits cannot be taken back, songs can't be removed and you make a permanent commitment to 'this is now the bar in this game' and if you're not in a class to reach that bar, you may not be able to ever feel completion (to some degree) over the game's contents. Additionally, making hard contents 'fun' is extremely hard. Hard usually starts to stray from fun, and when you focus on hard/balance some games and charts tend to lose the initial 'fun' that a game should provide. It's fine to have an opposing opinion! It's fine to want hard contents, there's plenty out there! This is just my two cents about the current inclination of games to make contents that cater to spectators and a very very small subset of players to play in competitive settings. Tournaments can still exist without the whole game's difficulty curve being designed around this!

@guy_kun I need to find that JP tweet about 上手 モブ 初心者 pyramid that I saw just quite few days ago…

@guy_kun I’m rushing zzz rhythm game right now since it’s last day of the event, and I couldn’t be full locked in for perfect score but I still feel like with two buttons I could already enjoy the mood

I just really think music games should be made for the average player to enjoy and have skill ceilings somewhat within enjoyable reason… (what I deem reasonable as a music game player is already high!) Not for chasing impossible skill ceilings for esports for a select few, and for others to only spectate…

I start to think this year’s Arcaea’s April Fools joke could relate to graphic enhancements lol

@guy_kun Please or please don’t support DLSS 5.

In Falsus may or may not support DLSS 5.

Triumph's the better ending. Wielding a flower in one grasp, and its thorns in the other-- Be steady and go forth, ye hand of God. Flourish Beyond, in "Axium Divergence". #arcaea9周年 #arcaea

@guy_kun time to change some biz model… right? Kind of thinking it’s sometimes we are offered something really wonderful, but that’s only 500 memories for one pack, which cost like a cup of starbucks… Spending one afternoon at the arcade playing maimai would cost me far more than that…

I dream of the day that lowiro is big enough/ has enough manpower to run an event like KOP/KAC...

@qqqqqf5 这不是p5r丸喜的问题嘛

KOP 7thはいよいよ明日！！ ブラフか不安か。 選手達の動向にも注目です。 入念なリハーサルを行なって準備をおりますが、予期せぬトラブルがあったら申し訳ありません。 スタッフ一同、皆様に最高の試合を見せられるように尽力してまいります。 ご視聴&ご声援、よろしくお願い致します。

After another day of struggling with my left hand on the keyboad to play #InFalsus , here’s the honest thoughts

@guy_kun 新年快乐🎉

新年快乐！🫵

@guy_kun I’m gonna ask like how, is the progress 進捗どうですか？

Everyone asks where or when the In Falsus demo is, but noone asks how it is....
