[@lupin6741]

there's plenty of simulators of arcade rhythm games like Lunatic Rave, albeit difficult to set up initially, is a very good IIDX and Popn' Music simulator. Stepmania, StepF2, and OpenITG are really good dance game simulators for playing DDR, Pump it Up, or In The Groove. KSM or USC are good Sound Voltex sims, there is a Chunithm sim in development if I remember correctly.

oh yes, playing the same charts over and over I know a guy who has been doing this for over a year now, and he nail those songs (some singles S18 - S20), but one day he played Mad5ience S20 and he sucked at triples and got an F ._.

[@indonesia8394]

Oof

[@mythlessrwf]

#1 relates to me a lot. I mainly play the same charts because I feel those charts are the only ones that offer a fun challenge to me-the rest are either not fun to play or too easy for me to enjoy

[@ahsongfei]

I was aware of #1, but what REALLY helped me to get above levels 17~18 was paying attention to the BPMs of the songs, I started playing more 160~170 to warm up instead of 130~140 and suddenly everything got easier haha. Keep it up f33tz!

[@tabbytabster]

im a rhythm gamer who has been stuck on a skill level plateau multiple times in the past. im really glad that you have put the work i did for myself into words, so now i can consciously improve myself while being able to give sound advice to my peers who are in need of help. thank you very much for making this video, you have my sincerest gratitude.

[@Idkwhattoputhere...306]

I Mean honestly ive dedicated my time onto learning and getting better on rhythm games but my problem wasnt exactly he things mentioned in the video,its mainly just bad habits,and Absolutely bad finger flexibility,twitching and Bad things physically reletaed to my fingers(if i theorize what my problem is)Whenever i play rhythm games,whenever i encounter something too fast,my fingers usually break,or in other words cant keep up,leading to uncomfortable hits leading to combo breaks and bad acc,ive started training my fingers recently but havent seen any progress :(

[@cwarmann]

The muscle memory point is spot on. We had a running gag in the Guitar Hero community that if you took a really long break (weeks or even months) you were suddenly a lot better when you returned. I assume a big part of that was unlearning mistakes you had previously made so many times that they were ingrained. Probably some additional hand fatigue factors in there as well. If you take *too* long of a break though, your skills absolutely atrophy and it's a grind to work back into shape.

[@tShuka_]

Should have 6th reason. Human limitations.

[@minmimimi2810]

[@mohammadfahrurrozy8082]

Yeah,theres a reason why top players are called not human/alien

[@charielity6071]

Hm If you hit your "human limit", you either have medical problems or you are already #1 in your game

[@ruruisu]

Unless you have a medical condition, that sounds more like an excuse than a reason Probably only applies to top players

[@lillyie]

imagine making up an excuse because you can't or won't improve

[@MyEyes5]

100% agree with all these points. I think the problem with a lot folks tryna improve is that they're not approaching this with an athletic mind set, which I can understand as not everyone grows up with an athletic background. But once someone gets that ideology, the sky's the limit. Hell I myself improved tremendously once I started organizing specific workouts every time I go. Along side studying charts just for fun at first, but now I use them as visual training in a sense. My advise to anyone who loves this game (or really anything applicable), learn everything about it. Dissect it. Internalize it. Set yo goals, then crush them bitches 💪🏾💯

[@RyuHirakashi1]

Damon Roberts I completely agree with this statement. Being that I’m a long distance runner, I’ve always treated dance games as an athletic endeavor. To do anything less is doing yourself a disservice.

[@sagiridesu7230]

i agree

[@wixelpix]

I've been watching a lot of your stuff for a while now, and it's been inspiring me to get back into the game particularly for weight loss reasons. 42 pounds and counting since last August. Keep on being awesome!

[@erwinguerra5870]

You keep opening my eyes to thing I never knew were a thing. I didn't know studying charts on KZbin was a normal thing. I always felt a sort of shame whenever I did cause I thought it was a noob thing to do, and here I was, 13 years in and still doing it sometimes. This was actually a really good list. Thanks man and keep up the good work!

[@gab_gallard]

I'm really happy that you're deciding to also do this kind of informative content. It's just what the community needs. Do you know Etienne? Is another KZbin channel also doing informative videos on rhythm games. You should collab sometime because you two seem to have similar goals in mind. Anyway, thanks for this! :)

[@megative-music]

What makes me stuck on a certain skill level mostly because I can't keep my play routine at optimal pace (I only play on weekends). Watching charts on KZbin helps me maintain my muscle memory on the game until I can play again. Also I think try not to cheese harder charts may improve your skill level as well. Because you are essentially trying to do charts you can't with your current skillset. While it may gave you the score you want, you didnt get the skillset demanded by the chart. A month ago or two I cheesed Gargoyle Full S20 by bracketing the streams and I got B, while playing with the intended way I only got D. It gave me the score I want, but I still can't do a really long stream.

[@indonesia8394]

True

[@worldsendloneliness]

Legit when I wanna practice, I just play random.

[@hanthonyc]

One time I had so much muscle memory from restarting a song (after a miss), the first time I actually did it correctly, I accidentally restarted... I believe it also happens to speedrunners grinding a luck-based trick.

[@frank2mb]

A year ago, I was stuck in 13s and 14s because I was horribly overweight, obese even (I was 95kg at the time). After putting in some serious effort in exercise and maintaining cardio over a span of 8 months, my weight dropped to 88 kgs (I know it's not much, I love food). Now I can go through most 15s and some 16s after familiarizing the mechanics and techniques of my ultimate nightmares: crossovers and brackets. I'm down to 86kg and I can do some 17s and even got A(broken) in Vaccum S19. My next goals at this time are Allegro Con Fuoco S17 and Wedding Crashers S18. Oh goodness. Wish me luck. Your videos are very, VERY helpful. :)

[@katsudom]

Well time to play DADADADADADADADADA at berserker difficulty on osu!

[@cyan2949]

With "NF" XD

[@xjlee09919]

true,i think sometimes spamming random level really help,way better than spamming same song,1st try will suck,but when u play again after random many song,u can improve dramatically

[@gabrielgoncalves2763]

I would also include playing with stricter jugdment to improve precision

[@dragonexpert8323]

DDR has a lot stricter timing window for Marvelous than PIU has for Perfect.

[@niveous5392]

A good example maybe exclusive to a Clone Hero is that you can set the song speed higher to increase difficulty instead of just a different song. Helps reaction time/muscle memory when you play “slower” songs imo

[@mollysandera991]

Similar thing exists in osu!, named Double Time. There's also Half Time, but im sure nobody uses it or smth

[@anggoroputra5660]

I cannot stress enough how #5 hits the most for me. Just as an example. Yesterday i was playing alone when suddenly, the top 3, and i mean the LITERAL TOP 3 in my country came to the same arcade to play. I got a chance to play with them, and i got a chance to pick a song. Now, i am faced with a mental barrier of "should i play the song i know really well to keep up with them, or should i choose a different song but fear getting judged by them" And honestly, key word here is "fear". I fear that if i mess up, they'll judge me. We're talking a RT14 surrounded by RT19's (we're playing Maimai. RT is Rating on how skilled you are, the higher the better). Could you maybe chip in another advice on how not to get nervous or feel fear if this happens again? And, thanks for the video, really appreciate it 🙏

[@anthonysteve8783]

I laugh so Hard on the 5th Reason... Cause It's So damn true Sometimes 😂

[@JellySlosh]

#4 was my biggest problem in Prime 2 and XX stage requirements have motivated me to work harder at having a tangible goal in all of my sessions. You highlight a really important point here too, be able to adjust your goals if you don’t meet it

[@SleepDeprivedMatt]

i think that there is also another reason which goes for a lot of bigginers they tend to panick on fast parts and do not try to see the pattern, most songs has a pattern and they just need to look at it closer, but most people see it as just mashing your keyboard resulting in spamming and make them have a thinking that they aren't good enough

[@dotXyore]

Most newer charts, anyway. A lot of older charts tend to put in a LOT of double steps which is very annoying.

[@tails64dsntchannel8]

Hey Seth, I'm Miles from Twitch, This video is a very useful tool for a lot of players that are just starting out, especially not playing one song over and over, most of the times i went to play ITG i give myself only one try at each song i picked and that was it, this along with other tricks and a good form helped a lot and got me from easy charts to 13 blocks charts on ITG in just over a year, unfortunately all of that came to an obrupt end the day i moved to a new city.. studying charts on KZbin or just put autoplay on OpenITG sounds like a good way to study charts and i'm definitely giving it a try! (once i find, or buy, a good machine, that is)

[@MrWeird15]

Definitely agree with all of these! One thing I could add however is making sure you eat a light meal and drink water when you play. I guess it differs for every person, but at least for me it makes a world of difference when tackling the harder stuff. Great vids btw, keep em coming!

[@UsaraDark]

Yes. Don't drink a milkshake before playing. My friend did that and vomited after a few songs.

[@나시나-y5k]

Yeah, I've tried bad apple s15 without knowledge and that was crazy

[@RyuHirakashi1]

나시나 I was trying to play that song earlier this week and I really had to scratch my head at the absurd amount to tempo changes that chart had. It it way worse than chaos on supernova 1.

[@lulzgaming]

something else i think that is important that didn't get mentioned is that it is definitely ok to take breaks for a few days, it can even help sometimes too in my experience trying to push yourself past your limits while being in pain can stop you playing for years at a time, so taking breaks is key! sometimes having a break will allow you to come back stronger also

[@happyf333tz]

Yes, 100% agree with this point! Taking breaks is very important. You have to give yourself time to rest up and recover both mentally and physically.

@@Noluxarch haha same

[@alecryankevinbryanrjdelila7334]

Another thing, don’t be afraid to abuse that speed modifier!! Learn at half speed then speed it up when you get things right!

[@alansef]

Another reason is not playing on stricter timings. Playing stricter timings will help you develop new muscle memory to hit more accurately because of the stricter timings. Not doing this will make your accuracy stay the same longer and thus not improve. I play Quaver and i use its adjustibale timing windows, mainly Impossible which reduces marv timing to 8 ms and perfects to 20. For comparison its standard timing (which is the one used for ranking) has 18 ms for marvs and 43 for perfects. Its a really good thing to know, really.

[@dhanocore]

For me worked downloading StepF2, it made me try the songs before playing them, just by using my fingers my goal was trying to read the songs, this way I jumped from level 14 or 15 songs, to 18 and 19 shortly, now I am trying lvl 18, 19 and 20 charts.

[@KRUN888]

Holy shit it’s about time someone made a video on this. I preach these ALL THE TIME to everyone asking me on how to improve, and it frustrates me when you tell them and they just ignore it (especially #1. I was guilty of that for quite a few years)

[@MiroslavRD]

Well, I'm stuck at Novice.

[@RinMariiiii]

I also wanna add: "You're playing too much in one session" Burnout is definitely a thing and while it's important to practice regularly, it's also important to take breaks and know when one has had their fill for the day. ("Practice smart, not hard") Excessive playing in one session, even games that aren't high-calorie, can be mentally draining and lead to more mistakes the longer one keeps playing.

[@HirobrinePlayzMania]

i think this is gonna help a lot thanks

[@Vizefon]

Number 5 hits me very hard man!!! But I think it is both a good and bad thing depending on how you look at it. . It's bad when you just keep doing it to show off to the crowds with the songs you're comfortable with without any new difficulties and song charts. The same steps you've done hundreds of time with no difficulties. Most of the time, it is a waste of tokens if you're in the arcade. But man, we just like attention sometimes, don't we? Haha I think it's okay if you're just relaxing and don't have anything particular in mind. Show off all you want! . It's good when you have a mindset like "what if I can show off a much harder song to them?" and decide to challenge yourself to the crowds with completely new songs with new difficulties you've never tried before. Don't worry about failing, the crowds mostly don't even mind about that. Heck some of them just want to watch you for the fun of it. This is a good opportunity to take new challenges and go with higher difficulties, because I believe it is more satisfying to show off to the crowds with a performance you've never done before instead of doing a performance you've already mastered. Just say you're tired and exhausted if you fail to perform lol the crowd would surely understand you with all the crazy steps done!!!! Nice video man, very good tips!!!! Rhythm gamer forever!!!!

[@RyuHirakashi1]

One reason I progressed at a high rate with pop’n music was because of the fact that the cs versions had training mode. This allowed me to work on tricky parts to songs that I couldn’t pass. Just watching KZbin videos isn’t going to allow you to actually work on building your ability. When I’m playing pump, I’m supposed to figure it out instantly whenever I see not patterns I I can’t properly do yet. That’s like telling someone who can’t drive to drive on the freeway and to make mistakes. There has to be a better way! Edit: last time I checked these games are about the music. I hate pop music and I will not touch these songs. I just smash arrows to music I like. I’m not going to play bad songs just to be some kind of completionist.

[@twitchster77]

Something that seems to be really important to me personally, is to take days off from the game. Sometimes life just gets in the way or I start feeling burnt out so I take some days off. But even on the weeks where I'm enjoying whatever game it is, and I'm doing well...I'll force myself to take a couple of days off from the game. For whatever reason, most of the time when I come back to the game after a break, I see improvements.

[@kuangmengg]

2nd point hit me hard. I'm not learning from mistake at all as I'm constantly missing on certain part when I play a song years, until today I'm still missing on the part. Guess I need to combine other tips to really work out my mistake

[@Flash244MCGaming]

[@penguioon4251]

[@HisyamHex]

this really helps me a lot. still trying to breakthrough S18 and D18 charts in PIU. especially point #1 and #3

[@unknowndeoxys00]

I'm ok at watching charts, it's just getting my feet to catch up with my brain 😢 I deciphered a lot of how to play heavy/expert through controller. That came with it's obvious downside of me giving up the pad and basically dumping dancing games for years because they got "boring." I'm making a promise to myself to at least pass all my old DDR games with my replacement pad, even practicing in training mode...and if I'm still desperate, I'll look up a chart on KZbin. Anything to keep me away from that damned controller lol

[@Shikairo]

Every time I have a bad rhythm game session, I go back to this video and it really helps. I now want to go back to Round 1 to play DDR LOL

[@smallwaves]

2+3 are big killers and you need #3 to overcome #2 in a lot of cases. Gonna use my SDVX session from the other day as an example: I was going for a clear on On Take Sun MXM. After the 3rd time track crashing it, I went to the notechart site sdvx.in to look at where I was starting to let lasers go off track and why and also to learn the rhythm of the alternating chord holds for M49-55, and I stopped trying to use right hand for buttons and left hand for knobs on M89-93 since it does not allow enough time to reach over to the other knob in time. Just from looking at a static upload of the chart, I stopped making bad decisions with my approach and hit long notes with intention instead of mindlessly slapping them and losing what should've been free gauge gain.

[@indonesia8394]

Thanks for the info it helps me to improve my skill on pump it up. I'm still trying get an A on level 19 single and 18 double and i want to play higher difficulty like 86 s20 soon as i unlock the song Edit: i already got A stage break on s19 and stage pass on d18 :D Another edit: now i can get A stage break on d19 and got B stage break on full moon d20

[@TKunGz]

Thank you for making this video. Now I'm getting my consciousness back to improve myself and follow your instruction. ------------------- (I just want to share my experience XD) My problems are all except #3. 1. I'm stuck at K-pop songs since I know almost all of them, so I can catch the rhythm well. And 'this' links to #5 as well. 2. It's not that I play the same chart over and over, but I kept playing same 'group' of favorite charts to the point that I made more mistake every time. 4. I did have goals, but somehow I didn't care about it and just mess around. I planned to start over when the XX first launched in my country and get specific amount of S, SS, or SSS in the specific level, then climbing up level by level. But here I am, playing around. 5. I know most people likes K-pop, so I played a lot of K-pop to attract people.(I can play lv18 at max) Sometimes it's not K-pop, but songs that I'm confident to show others.

[@TKunGz]

Oh, another question. Is it okay to skip levels instead of climbing one by one?

[@SnowBoy1008]

1:46 You could also just turn on the Autoplay not to analyze the chart instead of watching youtube videos but watching youtube videos still helps because you can learn what most people struggle with and practice for the hard part

[@sarima7621]

1st tip very helpful! getting S in easy mode is nice but progress is nicer

[@Luke17d]

I memorize the dance steps before going to the arcade. Works better where I love the song enough to keep on repeating it.

[@seanluo8369]

I’m thankful for Yuisin’s videos

[@risingguardian0110]

That "ask you for advice then not take it anyway" thing is so true. I've explained in detail how I sightread charts in rhythm games and the people who ask me how I see things that fast and wanna learn, just ignore it and play the same charts over and over.

[@Renetiger000]

For me, the reason why i suck at rythm games is because I suck at reading patterns if song is fast

[@senator_anator]

What helped me was first watching a vid of someone do one of the hardest levels in the game and then analyze it. Then u play it. It may take much frustration and time but after i mastered that level after some days i noticed a huge increase of my rhythm. Really wort a try.

[@chrispham6599]

This video could be re titled as "HappyF33tz knows you better than you know yourself" and I'd be fine with it.

[@MackenziiRivers]

a personal one for me and maybe it might be usefull for others is, especially with ddr (or high body movement rhythm games ) is to get in shape. It might be obvious but its hard for a just over 250 pound (5"7) individual to try and to standard/difficult songs on ddr whilst carrying that much weight around. I do ddr for mfun mostly but for people who want to get into it competitively, make sure you have a high enough stamina, most of the time your out of shape and that leads to lack there of. just thought i'd share this. i know it wouldnt fit in your video as your's were universal and all.

日本語のざっくりした要約です(全訳ではありません)。お役立てください。微妙なニュアンスの違いもあるかもなので、訂正などあればリプでいただけるとありがたいです。 『音ゲーの地力の成長が止まってしまう5つの理由』 【①似通った譜面ばかりやっていて、新しい譜面に手を出さない】 一つの譜面に固執してもその譜面しか上達しないよ！プレイヤーとして上達するためには、様々な譜面に手を出そう。どんな音ゲーでも、自分の地力に合ったレベル帯の譜面に広く手を伸ばせば、一通りやり終えるころには必ずそれなりに上手くなってるよ。 【②癖を付けて、失敗から糧を得ようとしてない】 同じ譜面を連奏してる人にありがち。癖がつく主な理由は、スコアを出すために無闇に粘着し、失敗してもその原因をKZbinや譜面画像で分析しようとしないから。長期的に成果を出していくためには、投稿者のアドバイスとしては、一旦その譜面から離れて時間を置いて戻ってくるか、一つ下のレベルからやり直すと良い。 【③譜面をKZbinで確認していない】 ②で述べたように、失敗の原因を探る手段として便利なのがKZbinのメリットの一つ。更なるメリットは、「知識」を得られること。その譜面で何が降ってくるか大まかに知っておくことで、難所などでどのような動きをすればいいか準備ができる。よく見る譜面をプレイリストにまとめておいて、暇な時に見よう。投稿者は、音ゲーをやらない日でも譜面動画を確認するそう。 【④目標を立てずになんとなくやってない？】 音ゲーに真剣に向き合っていて、何かしらの長期目標がある人にとっては特に重要。今日音ゲーをやる目的は何？フルコンボをつけること？クリアランプをつけること？理由はなんであれ、明確な目的意識を持って音ゲーに取り組もう。 今日の目標を立てたらまず(下位譜面などで)ウォーミングアップしよう。体が温まって、精神的にも行けそうな感じがしたらやってみよう。もし立てた目標が達成できそうな気がしなくなっても、全然大丈夫。その日は簡単な譜面を楽しくやったり、音ゲー自体やらなくてもOK。上手くいかない日くらい誰にでもあるから。 【⑤音ゲーの上達よりも、周りの視線を気にしてない？】 エンジョイ勢は気にしなくていいけど、真剣に音ゲーが上手くなりたい人は注意すべきで、周りからの視線を集めるために自分の得意譜面ばかりやっていても上達しないよ。

[@nolimits2fan960]

oh yes.... playing the same songs over so many people like doing this and branching songs sometimes I'm nervous

[@fsfuihi]

Thanks for the tips! I will going to follow the steps!

[@xnayla]

Great video! Keep doing what you’re doing 🤗💕

[@flubdorp]

holy shit i needed this so much thanks

[@alecryankevinbryanrjdelila7334]

For me, I used the crowd as my drive. Yeah, I kinda started cuz I loved the attention. Doing spins on Pump always impressed the crowd. Then I met the other rhythm gamers who were way better than me. I drove myself, not only getting people’s attention, but trying to SSS or AAA. Now it’s both for me, I wanna see myself improve with better scores and attention from random people walking by. It’s like performances, you want to get the loudest cheers and the biggest audience. Of course, S19s are hard for me, but seeing that crowd of 10 people makes me smile, and seeing that A on that chart makes me smile more.

[@losthope6935]

My goals for rhythm games are simple: Just try to have fun. Unfortunately, I rarely land my goal thanks to the genre demanding a precision and speed that I lack plus my fear of being seen as a failure causing me to mess up more often than not.

[@cerezaperuana]

Finally a video that it's free of bad words xd hahah nicevideo happyfeetz

[@muskit_]

3:13 wait i think i got wooooshed

[@smug880]

1:54 *tai lopez liked that*

[@sonic176yt7]

Either you mess everything up when one person is watching you or you just get 100% accuracy

[@nanattechi]

1:47 agreed, i'm a phigros player and the gimmicks in territory battle threw me offguard and watching that chart in youtube helped lmao

[@DRFBlox]

My tip of advise, would be to keep playing until you get hand cramps. Take a long break (sometimes up to 6 hours) and you will come back like you are on god mode lol. I went from playing Endymion normal mode to illusion of conflict Hard on Quaver. In just a day! :O

[@swoop_3149]

I hate when people because when they do I start to mess up even what it is a chart that I am good at but sometimes when like a friend or family member watches I do not mind

[@baharisaputra4925]

ARCAEA AND CYTUSS please

[@Akira-nv6jd]

This maybe a stupid reason but, prepare for your big sesions! Bring you water and if you are in your home and playing ddr or piu bring a fan to keep you cool! Also stay hydrated and avoid play whit contact lens, your vision will be tired in a matter of minutes

[@sillyjobbernowl]

Arthritis holds me back these days. ;'(

[@mEmmuCh]

Ya tks for your advice, I will think of playing other track than just grinding on Noel in muse dash with one hand right now, it's now hopeless to me, i will think of practicing other pattern before getting a revenge xD

[@BryFo]

Damn. I started to pick up some of these habits recently. Number 5. I don't care to impress the audience since the past year and half. I even play charts that I may stop moving because I can't understand charts in front of audience and they will normally walk away. I normally play lvl 15 - 18 as warm up songs and they are impressed by that. 🙃

[@happyf333tz]

Good on you in regards to #5, too many players in rhythm games are afraid to show error in front of people. It's okay to make mistakes, we all make them and you grow by learning from those mistakes!

[@emmanuellopez3471]

Ok, I'm no rhythm game expert, but I spent three days playing beat saber on expert plus mode with real sticks to beat some demons, and what I found out was, I became extremely smooth in doing whatever movements I was doing, because I did it over and over again, but I had to use shadow memory to get that smoothness and speed.

[@despacito311]

what

[@emmanuellopez3471]

@@despacito311 In fighting there's this thing known as shadow boxing. Where you imagine your opponent doing a move and then you react to it. There are better and worse ways to react to a certain situation. When there was an incredibly fast progression of notes, I found there were several different ways of hitting them, even thought the notes were the same. I could hold the sticks close to my chest. I could move my arms instead of my wrists, I could use my hips and move my entire body to hit those notes. There was a great possibility of things. When muscle fatigue combined with repetition, and a little bit of meditation and reflection, allowed me to hit some incredibly hard note progressions. The muscle fatigue made me slow and tired and forced me to find the most efficient way of moving. The repetition allowed me to refine those movements over and over, and gave me knowledge and foresight to know what comes next. The rest and meditation allowed me to easier put two and two together, and synchronize my body for the next trial. I was fighting some demons, actually.

[@Hahdesu]

I'm flattered... Usually my crowds gather on their own though, as shown in my video. I wasn't trying to impress them. I hate crowds and people in general when I am playing DDR lol. I have a lot of counter-measures for most of these. For example, I like to go over stepmania and just play several of the charts in DDR and just try to memorize them. Usually I record myself and upload them as well, which helps me see the sections I messed up (usually patterns and speed), and just go over them. That's something I recommend for players who are struggling. These are fair points though, so nice job.

[@happyf333tz]

Your video was not used to call you out as a player, just to show a crowd since that was the topic. There is a huge difference between playing and naturally having a crowd behind you vs you knowing there is a crowd and you start to focus on entertaining the crowd, rather than focusing on your goals in your session. Memorizing charts is a skill that is great to have, but is completely different when talking about playing charts that you are making mistakes on and building bad muscle memory on. Memorizing charts can only be done if you are very comfortable with the chart and it is a very different skill set.

[@Hahdesu]

@@happyf333tz That's true. I didn't take into consideration of the other games too actually, not just DDR! I've only been playing DDR for the most part, but I'm thinking of getting into PIU now that the Ace machine isn't exactly doing well in my location...

[@happyf333tz]

Flandre-SDM PIU is a great game to get into! Once you learn how to read/play Doubles, it becomes a total blast.

[@alanneus]

Great video I was personally guilty of 1 and 5

[@cosmosspacecentertelevision]

Thanks for the video, I am guilty of literally all 5 of these, really made me think. Thanks again!

[@MoltenLqva]

1. I have the memory and attention span of a flea 2. I practice so much and fail so much I end up hating the song when I first loved it 3. I have little control and patience causing me to act like Markiplier when he played getting over it 4. I cannot handle one person looking at me or I will instantly fail
