    Announcement regarding the future of my rhythm game career

    This announcement has been bouncing back in forth in my mind for quite some time but I've decided i'm fucking done.

    In recent times regarding FFR the games frame based timing has become so RNG reliant that it has become impossible to improve. I was at one point told there is going to be a timing window switch to MS timing instead which would help significantly but I have a feeling that that comment was a mere joke.

    Regardless of that I just feel there are several other issues holding me back in these types of games to the point where I can't keep going.

    So as of right now if you don't hear from me or very rarely hear from me this is why.

    You as a community have been fucking fantastic and I love all of you but it has just come to the point where things are holding me back from improving that shouldn't hold me back in the slightest.

    I mentioned earlier the current timing engine in FFR becoming basically RNG so i'll elaborate on what I mean by this, I sometimes get runs where I hit the note and get an amazing and then the next time on the same note with no differentiation will get a good or in some rare cases an average.

    People say that this issue is caused by lag but I haven't had any lag issues at all with the game so the explanation can be thrown out the window.

    There are other instances of things in other games holding me back that shouldn't be such as guitar issues in clone hero and at one point a game crashing issue on etterna.

    As of right now I'm just gonna say fuck all of it.

    You guys have been amazing and I feel i'm ending on a good note rather than lashing out at people in a blind rage for some stupid shit.

    I wish you all the best of luck.

    edit: i have decided to come back but more to play on rates and not to improve levels wise.

              I definitely know how it feels to hate FFR's timing windows. I've been playing more Etterna than anything, with a few fun FFR runs on rates or other engines. Pushing for equiv or new best scores all the time isn't always the best way to go as I've learned over the years.

              Seems like in your state, though you should definitely stay away from FFR the game for a while at the very least and do other things that make you happy and stress-free. Whether or not you decide to pick it up again or not is beyond anyone's knowledge, but it's there if you feel any itch to play again.

              We're always here if you need any help with anything.

                  "timing in this one rhythm game is rng dependent I MUST BE BAD AT ALL RHYTHM GAMES"
                  dude PLEASE try any rhythm game that does NOT depend on a functionally dead programming environment before forcing such an ultimatum on yourself

                    he attributed the timing issues to ffr, not rhythm games as a whole. did you read the part where he says "Regardless of that I just feel there are several other issues holding me back in these types of games to the point where I can't keep going." ?

                      Imagine playing a game and instead of having any fun you get mad and write a 200 words essay about it

                          Absolutely this. I agree that Adobe AIR doesn't always give out good performance and is part of the reason why I sometimes think my accuracy is off a bit. It is also the culprit behind game lag for many players. Regardless, it is good to take a break every now and then, and focus on something else for a short while. From my personal experience, short periodic breaks help significantly on restoring my accuracy and performance, and occasionally even gives skillboosts.

                          Hope you find something you'd enjoy for the time being!
