How are the difficult steps fun E19.gif You can't improvise or freestyle on any of them. Also they are very unoriginal. Very Stepmania feel to the stepcharts. I mean stuff you would find on Bemanistyle that is for the hardcore finger dancers.

O and for people complaining about J-Pop in DDR. Looks like ITG2 decided to have some of it for itself E4.gif
lol no. There's a difference between Bubblegum Pop/Eurodance and J-Pop, sorry.

Why would you be freestyling on a difficult song? None of DDR's hardest have much potential for a routine, either. Also, calling them keyboard charts is unreasonable. Every ITG1 song has been at least starred already (except maybe Euphoria), so clearly everything is doable on pad. In addition to that, many of the 11s and above are a lot of fun. Xuxa, HoTN, Tell, !, Monolith, Summer, etc. are all a blast to play on foot, because step artists DO take into account the players and their playstyles when writing the steps. All of the ITG1 12s test a different skill (not a finger dancing skill, most of them don't present any challenge on keyboard), so to call every one of them a mindless stream of 16th is outrageous.

Tell that to my friend Matt, who plays things like Delirium for fun. The Easy charts are way below my skill range, but that doesn't mean I call them boring and simplistic. Dance game players come in all skill levels, and you need to accept that there are a number of people for whom PSMO, LoM and the like are the only songs worth paying money to play. ITG provides something for all skill levels, and that's how the difficult charts are fun.

What I'm saying is that there are some people who won't touch a song just because it is easy. Dancing games are more about the music in them more than anything else. Songs like PSMO and Max 300 are not fun to me because they do not sound good. That is why I don't like ITG because the songs are not something that make me want to dance and the songs in ITG1 aren't varied to me and for the most part there are only like 4 genres of music in ITG1 and I don't like those genres either. People need to get past the steps and realize the music is why you should play a dance game. After all, it's not like it's real dancing!

In your opinion. I agree with you, I only play DDR for fun, the nearest I come to PAing is simply trying to pass and not fail certain songs. That doesn't mean everyone's the same, and like other recreational activities, ITG is something some people do for the challenge because they find the challenge itself fun.

I'm sure if it was sold for profit, Konami would clamp down on it (I'm sure it's a matter of time before they clamp down on ITG).[/quote]
