    The Method To Obtain Skill Tokens

    Is retarded.

    Make it simple like AAA or FC, and not some dumb random method that many people do not find fun.

      It was "Getting Out-of-Hand" but now it is fixed. Can you not see that the requirements haven't been as "retarded" lately. What was the point of making this thread?

        They were great, then they got out of hand, and now they're ok again.

              I like the requirements. Much more interesting than just "AAA this" or "FC that"

                  Same here. It would get to boring if you had to FC or AAA to get every token.
                  I liked the Lawn Wake requirement. Stuff like that is fun to do but also takes skill.

                      LOL the skill tokens were wine before. Starman was easy, but all this FC/AAA is soo annoying, I hate FC's and AAA's but starman was fun, Syage = no fun. Lol I think I am better at doing bad then good lol.

                      P.S. R3 Omega Mix is very hard for an indexer (that's me) to get 650 perfects on, cause of the gay middle. And as it turns out, I got it with exactly 650 Perfects.

                        I think this has been said before by someone, but it was perfect..

                        If skill tokens are too hard: "this isn't even fun anymore, come on, make the tokens a reasonable difficulty"

                        If skill tokens are too easy: "this isn't even fun anymore, come on, make the tokens a reasonable difficulty"

                            This is why it is rational to make tokens aimed for all sorts of skill sets. Some will be for accuracy-whores and some will be for people who aren't quite able to FC something yet. This way you never exclude people.

                            It'd be like if you ran track, and you'd get skill tokens only for running sub-4 minute miles from track to track. If you're constantly running a 7 or 8, you're going to feel pretty left out. Diversifying skill tokens is inherently more efficient.

                              I agree that we need to have a variety of methods for obtaining skill tokens. Being able to PC/AAA a song is clearly some measure of skill, and one obvious choice for obtaining a skill token, but it's not the only one. Certain length combos, or playing certain songs works, too. I liked the one for EternuS, to pass four long songs in a row. Simply passing a song usually isn't *that* difficult, so this was a bit more focused on the endurance of playing medium-hard songs for 19 minutes straight. I'm not too keen on the chain of one skill token depending on an earlier one that depends on an earlier skill token, etc., but it's not so bad if the unlocking requirements get progressively harder. I'd kind of hate to see a song that's relatively easy to unlock, but not be able to get it because it's in a chain with something harder to unlock before it that I can't get.

                              In general, what I don't like too much are the requirements to play poorly on purpose. I'd consider songs like Angelic Layer (get 250+ averages on Sepia), Exotica (pass Zodiac with 200+ averages), Liquid Moon (300+ misses with <=10 boos on Tension), and probably others to be examples of this. Yes, it takes skill to do this sort of thing, but not the type of skill that you're normally trying to acquire in the game (to PC/AAA songs). I'm also not a big fan of getting specific breakdowns such as Destiny V2's requirement to go 313/0/0/299/0 or songs with particular limits on the breakdown you can get like Crow Song's 20+ more averages than goods and 150+ more perfects than goods on Noir Remixed. Again, it does take skill to do this, but not the type of skill you normally work on. Obviously these are do-able since people have unlocked the songs, but I'm sometimes surprised at the number of people who can do them.

                              I certainly thought that some requirements were kind of crazy. Others seemed reasonable. Many are simply too hard for me at my skill level, reasonable or not. So it's hard for me to judge everything, but those are some of my thoughts on the topic.
