Imo, simplicity and generic is more fun

that's blatantly obvious coming from you when you've assembled 3 jumpstream focused packs and you're now making a 4th

just saying LoL

To me, there has to be a balance between simplicity and complexity. It's fun, for example, for a n00b to get a little challenge in the song he's playing and, on the opposite, to have a simple part in a hard song to let the player rest or feel like he's going to get owned in 2 seconds (which is a really awesome feeling btw ). The important is that a file is clean. It still can be hard as shit, but it's at least fair and not totally filled with unpredictable arrows to kill your AAA.

The problem is when you try to define what is ''fun''; you start realizing everybody's criteria isn't the same.

I prefer option A generally, since I only replay songs that I really enjoy. The ones that are too hard I generally don't go back to, even though I could get better at them if I played them more than once.

In all seriousness though, a balance between technicality that makes sense to the general public, and something I would enjoy myself is my goal. I step songs that I like, the way that I like. If someone likes it, good. If not, nothing of value was lost.
