This was my barrier of entry. As someone who put around a combined 1k hours in the Souls games, it wasn't until I treated the game differently than Souls did I finally start to make progress. Same thing happened with the aggressive, faster pace of Bloodborne.

When I worked returns in retail, we had to write why the product was being returned. My favorite was a vacuum cleaner because "It doesn't suck."

 

SpootyBiscuit is an incredible rhythmn game player. He plays multiple rhythmn games, this is his debut of a non-speedrunable game, there are many Crypt of the NecroDancer runs from him if you want to check them out.

I love all the rhythm game showcases at GDQ and always want to promote not only the player, the game, but also the charity event. I think everyone should check these out!

I love Cytus. Same dev also makes Deemo which is also great.

I just started playing Phigros due to a recommendation on this sub. Pretty cool so far!

One of my favorite showcases of rhythm games by Frif at Games Done Quick in 2020.

If you are unfamiliar with GDQ they are a charity speedrunning community. In the past few years they've started including highly technical skilled rhythm games into the rotation that can't necessary been speedran.

There are several more showcases that have happened at GDQ like this, including a new one last month by Frif himself, but this particular one holds a special place in my heart as it's one of the first rhythm games to be included to my knowledge and I keep coming back to it more than any others after all these years.

If you enjoyed this video and want to check out his most recent showcase, check it out here:

New rhythm game in the Squre-Enix world. I played Theatrhythmn 1 and 2 (Final Fantasy and Curtain Call, respectively) quite a bit, and while I personally never played through the Kingdom Hearts series, I'm ecstatic that they are continuing this line of games 9 years later. Check it out!

I haven't seen the trailer or played the game myself, but what if what you saw was a small fraction of the experience that is attainable? Wouldn't that be amazing?

The trailer still has to have enough to get people interested, and if it's well made with generous amounts of content it should still keep you amazed and interested.

Again, I don't actually know, but it is on my radar and I have heard good things about this game, so I feel inclined towards the positive outlook in this circumstance.

The NASA side is what bothered me. I really enjoyed the rest of the episode.

When David's family was killed... why wasn't there any real response from NASA? Bring him home, change personnel? Anything? You have this ship being maintained for 6(?) years by only 2 people, and one has had a massively horrible event impact his life and he's just supposed to keep trucking away for years. The only human interaction is seeing his partner once a week or if an emergency happens?

I don't even remember if there was an attempt to justify it, but considering the lack of response, the rest of the episode feels like a natural playout of events.
