    Another point of discussion: is it necessarily a bad thing if a simfile artist possesses the capability of creating something that would be considered "masterful" in its purest form, but doesn't? I'm actually asking this as a person who knows they have an understanding of the construction, structure, and technical elements that make up a good file. When it comes to simfiling, I have trouble understanding what is "fun" because I like to see myself as a really high-level player that pushes boundaries, and my files tend to do the same thing. As a current example, I'm stepping Tendon by Igorrr:



    In technicality, everything here is accounted for, and technically isn't overstepped, but it's quite obvious that the patterns are really rigid (and intended to be as such). When do we draw the line of being correct to the point of being "unfun", when "fun factor" is truly a subjective term? Some files considered "artful" feel right, but aren't always enjoyable to me -- for example (not a personal shot at you stargroup), I was never a huge fan of Castaway, which is a great file on a structural level. At the same time, something like dondon151's Break the Sword of Justice v2 Beginner file is something intended to have poor structure and be hard is a lot more enjoyable to me.


    It's so hard to find a great balance. Where's moches? He always seems to find the medium for me (Micro Media Broth, holyfok <3).

    I think stargroup basically hit the nail on the head: my perception of a file has to do with seeing 1) what the stepartist set out to achieve and 2) how well that objective is executed. it's really a matter of whether what you do is reflective of the song, imo.

    the tricky part (and where a lot of the disagreement about "fun factor" and "technicality" and all that jazz) becomes separating your personal taste with what you have to evaluate above. there's so many ways to play/interpret this game. I wouldn't say any of them are wrong. the problem is that people paint in broad strokes, saying that something is "overly technical" when it's clear that it wasn't specifically made for them in the first place. it's like, I hate horror films, but does that mean that I'm going to shit on a well-made movie just because I don't like it and no matter how good it was I wouldn't have liked it in the first place? that's not fair to the creator (in any medium), imo. he/she has no obligation to me.

    overall the pack is really lacking and is mostly generic unfun files imo.
    and that's fine, it's personal taste. at least they're well-made.

    but like bmah said, I'd love to hear what more people think about the pack (aka more reviews whores)

                    and yet a lot of his points are perfectly valid and go hand-in-hand with your philosophy

                    just saying :0)

                    ps I asked nicely for reviews and nobody bit. so this is it.

                    everybody who got tangled up in this discussion has to write a full review for all 107 files or I'm coming after all of you
