    What's this screen shrink?

    Now don't get me wrong, I'm half-decent at FFR or so (yeah, didn't use the forums for awhile), but what's this screen shrink I've been hearing about?
    Searched and to no avail. ;-;

    That's screenshrinking.

    You remove ~~50% (or more) of the game screen.

        Just restore the window. The rest should be obvious. =P

        EDIT: It increases your reaction time.

          Well yeah, I got the shrinking part, but what's the significance of doing so?

            It makes it so your brain is processing less objects on the screen at once and focuses your attention on the important objects.

              Well I dunno what it does exactly, but it helps having better score/combo. But you have to react faster =)

              EDIT : Oh yeah, what Dore said ^.^

                And just FYI, Kiro's window as shown is still considerably larger than most players. Most can only see part of the combo text or even smaller.

                  Yeah, I still don't see why people screen shrink..It only seems to make it harder. That or I'm not doing this correctly.

                    dore pretty much explained it. I have only tried screen skrinking once and it was a bit easier for me but not by much.

                      yea, screen shrinking can help from panic at rainbow notes. but mainly pros like dore and bahamut-X use this.

                        If I don't screen shrink I get an interesting barely passed mash looking cia rave, if I do screen shrink, I get nearly an AAA fc. That much of a difference.

                            Try "She bangs (William Hung version)" with screenshink like that :



                            Without screenshink I miss ~~20 times =)
                            And with screenshink I almost FC it...
