Sora from Dezert and Miharu also seem to be following him, so it definitely looks like it’s him. Maybe he’ll go the way of Yoshiatsu?

I forgot about misui, I need to check out their album. Thanks for the playlist! I’m sure I’ll find a couple of gems. I’m trying to decide who I want to see live next June.

Don’t really want to put my Twitter out there, but BUCK-TICK, and I’m gonna say “Baby, I want you” since I have a lot of good memories of listening to live videos of that song while drawing and painting in my bedroom as a teenager.

Every year there is a celebration in the village where my grandma lives in August. This year there were only people who just wanted enormous amount of money just for a box with 3 donuts and some dude almost stole my wallet. And no villagers. The village isn’t even dying, a lot of people bought houses but most of them didn’t came. And late night we have dancers who dance in hot embers which is the village’s tradition and the guy from the family in which this tradition passes isn’t here. It just crushed my good memories from the festival for some reason…

This is my big question. I got an USB mat to play Stepmania on PC but DDR on PS2 (specifically Max2 and Supernova2 - I played Yuni what can I say lol.) was my jam so I want to emulate it. But I never managed to get a PS2 emulator to work… Properly. PSX tends to be easier to emulate so maybe I’ll settle for it if it works on my PC. But I wasn’t super fond of the PSX ones aside from Disney Mix IIRC

Yeah, the PS2 versions are way better than the PS1 versions. For me DDR Max, Max 2, and Extreme are good but I didn’t enjoy Extreme 2 and both Supernova’s as much. It’s dumb that they locked songs behind completing missions with the new dance master mode. But there are some great tracks on those games.

I’m sure there must be some kind of guide for getting better compatibility with games. I bet reddit would be a good source. If your stuck with PS1 emulation then DDR Konamix is still pretty good. It’s practically just a collection of DDR best hits and there’s hardly a bad song on there. It does run at 30fps so the timing of arrows might take getting used to compared to the PS2 versions.

I tried playing it on my PS2 yesterday on a modern HDTV and the timing was so off I just couldn’t play.

That’s freaking annoying how some producers make hats. A human head is not a goddamn ball! Learn your anatomy already.

It feels great to be back home after a whole year, everything seems clearer now, got lots to do though, renew my visa’s, talk with relatives because it’s expected of me, and the best part is gonna hop on and download some more music and books I had bookmarked years ago, and maybe I will visit my old communities, I just can’t seem to let go, I have been around there for so long its a part of me now although everyone I knew have moved on to better things. Of all the places I’ve been vilified and banned this scene has been mature since the start and just shows how wrong I was. I’ve always wondered, kryr_16 are you still here lurking? I’m sorry for the gif it was a poor joke, always makes me happy seeing passionate people, then seeing them run off.

Yeah, IIRC I barely got to play Extreme but it was really good too … DDRMax2 I played the most by far, but I have fond memories of playing often Time Hollow and My Favorite Things (on JP Supernova 2 I think?) too. (Edit: lol I had to make sure and yeahh I loved Venus too, so Now I am sure that the version I played was Supernova 2 JP … ) Indeed locked songs are always a pain, though. :frowning:

100% gotta check. Didn’t know about Konamix, I will take a peek! Not much can be done about the frame ratio though it IS a pain when you are not used … it’s just so hard to run DDR on modern systems which is why I end up resorting to Stepmania, but it’s just not the same (maybe because it lacks the “fond nostalgia” factor :upside_down_face: ) .
