This game is so good. Weekend can’t end fast enough so I can get home and buy it. My own fault for not playing it sooner

Might be done with this game for a while. Any Supreme over 11 is too ridiculous, and Ultimate is so easy it's boring. Probably just a game to play when I want to chill out with some FF tracks.

i was feeling confident in taking on supreme soon but then the end of the Theatrhythm series series kicked my rear end a few times on ultimate. any chart that has you juggling holds with single notes & tossing in multi notes gets me every time and i can only assume supreme has way more of that

yeah it's always doubles that contain holds that trip me up. usually because I've forgotten to let go at the end

I'm having to integrate the triggers more into gameplay, playing it like I'm still on the 3DS makes it harder. They give you a ton of control flexibility for a reason.

I’m having a blast with this game as my first theatrhythym and I wished I picked up one of these sooner.

Seems like the rpg aspects are important for the harder challenges but so far just enjoying switching characters around a lot to see how they adapt their abilities to this game while I play up to the key chests in every world. Will exp be easy to come by later or should I start focusing on some people to make my life easier after clearing out the easy stuff

I'm enjoying this a lot despite being awful at this sort of thing. getting to the right stick when i need it quickly is feeling tricky, i probably need to adjust how i hold the switch

Are you using face buttons? I’m also pretty bad with the right stick, but ignoring those and switching to triggers/bumpers only + sticks has helped me with it for some reason

experience should stay pretty plentiful, there's also the growth egg items that boost your gains for the next song

another tip you might have noticed but just in case: for double stick notes it doesn't care which stick goes in which direction. so if you get two arrows pointing in towards each other followed by away from each other, you can just push the sticks inwards twice (because left and right are still getting hit)

think I explained that badly but hope it makes sense

Makes sense to me. I've done that before but it's easy to get tripped up when things are popping off so it probably just needs practice. also thanks for reminding me that items exist!

~As for dreams, she has enough and more to spare~
diagonals are also only checking if you're hitting either of the directions, not both of the directions. so if you have a sting of up-right, right, down-right you can just hit right three times. same goes for the doubles. an up-right and up-left double will register if you just hit both sticks up

A far less useful tip is that you can hit L and R (l1 and r1 I assume on the PS) during the loading screen to make the party fall on their faces.

This didn't last long. Working on getting a high score on Brute Justice supreme now.

I'm over here still scared to make the jump to ultimate. But I guess I'll do it for the sake of quest completion.

I'm consistently getting S rank on this song. I had delusions of grandeur that I could practice enough to perfect chain it but I'd settle for just an SS rank for now.

My party setup is also ridiculously tanky so I can clear most supreme tracks even with intensely lovely scores. Noctis has blink which ignores damage 3 times, Gladio has a skill that greatly reduces damage but lowers his strength (who cares), and Princess Sarah has a constant regen effect, a skill that lowers all damage, and she can cleanse any debuff up to 3 times. Sephiroth could probably be replaced with another defensive character to make it even tankier but this seems to be good enough.

you asked way back if we prefer bursts on or off in multi. I agree it's mario kart poo poo and a straight test of just playing the song is more honourable

that said I definitely want bursts on if we ever battle because otherwise I got no loving chance lol

I think the FF9 remake is still bad on Switch, the PC version relies on two popular graphics and sound mods.

Been pretty much playing this until my switch died, charging to full and repeat. Lol that my top songs are still the ones from the demo, that will change very soon

as powerful as ever...

I'm still having a great time unlocking songs while using each world's characters, gettingideas for things to try later. haven't messed around with chocobo but yuna/vivi/lightning are all chars I want to use on my real teams

anybody mess around with loot based teams? ppl like zidane have gotten me a lot of stuff passively while working through songs
