/v/ - Video Games

Hot garbage that completely deviated from the game it intended to ape at the start. Instead of the comfy songs and endearing stories of Ouendan, it devolved into endless clusterfuck 9999BPM shit songs that are pure noise and dickwaving autists trying to get the top score on their favorite anime opening.

It says it all that to this day there still isn't a full rip of the Ouendan songs available for it.

This, a lot of the people making the beats just try to be original whereas the original title was meant to be a story progression. Plus they don't understand that the cutscenes were a necessity to introduce breaks, without it the game just devolves into rote memorization without much fun at all. DDR in comparison had the benefit of being a social activity.

Wasn't there a big controversy over osu spying on users/being spyware?

it spies on you

>>16439899

yes, it took screencaps of your desktop and processes and sent them to their databanks to scan for cheating software, however it appearrs it got cut due to the controversy, also the new osu lazer is open source so it's an improvement I guess

Isn't it that rhythm game for gooks and trannies?

I want EBA to get a sequel

iidx or die

mcOSU is better, it doesnt spy on you.

I don't really care much about the ouendan controversy because those games were better played on the ds anyway.

Somefags are still salty that the community is mostly filled with weebs but that's just what happens when you got a rythem game that isn't guitar hero and the abilty to make your own maps.

Why not make the rips yourself and make a pack for them?

I played it for a few years and really liked the core gameplay and music selection. I found a lot of great songs/artists through the game. It eventually started to get uncomfortable to play though, so I had to stop. The scoring system also is complete garbage. Overall it's a pretty solid game, you have to ignore a lot of shit, including most of the "community" to get enjoyment from it though.

If you want skeleton hands and unblinking eyes, Osu does wonders.

Making the rips wouldn't fix the underlying issues of the game, and I could just go emulate Ouendan instead and save myself the hassle.

The problem is this game AND community are nothing like Ouendan should be.

>The problem is this game AND community are nothing like Ouendan should be.

Not seeing this as a problem, personally.

Like you said, you can easy emulate Ouendan and ripping Ouendan wouldn't fix the community.

I get the reason behind your frustration, it does appear the community has shifted from correctly timed beats with a skin made in the style of Ouendan, to completely simplistic metro looking skins with 300 hitmarkers removed completely to favor the faster more mindlessly spaced hit circles of modern maps.

Honestly, it does suck, i don't dislike the mindless nature of modern osu though, i find it kinda fun in it's own way.

I do dislike how Ouendan styled maps have gone completely out of style and outcasted in the mapping community. It would be nice if there was a seperation from classic old mapping style that more fits Ouendan and the more modern style. So both could live on in a way.

unfortunately, peppy is a dumbfuck who won't get his ass off to fix his broke as shit code. So on the OSU offical client(tm) this won't be possible.

Being proprietary and all it sucks by default. I recommended mcOSU because of it's customizability and it has potental to best the offical client (if someone forks it because the current head coder doesn't want to risk peppy's wrath)

The songs take up too much space and the game is autistic to begin with.

Used to play Osumania a bit. I don't care for using the mouse. It somewhat got me into rhythm games. That whole "taking screenshots of your desktop" thing turned me off from it though.

I don't really play rhythm games anymore now.

For? Not at all, and I don't see how the community in a mostly single player game could affect your experience playing a game.

The community makes most of the maps, so…

I found mania to be fun but there has to be something wrong with it because everyone is switching to K-Shoot.

that picture, is it from underhell?

>>16457382

Actually yeah, that’s pretty much exactly what I want. shame it’s 5 dollars a month. I’d rather pay 50 and just own the software.
