00:37:967 (4,5), 01:14:687 (1,2), 01:57:888 (4,5), 02:15:168 (11,12), 03:30:769 (4,5), 03:48:049 (4,5), 04:05:329 (4) - Should be 1/2 and 3/4 respectively, don't believe the piano is 1/3 here.
00:51:197 (3,4) - wouldn't ctrl+g on the rhythm here fit what you're emphasizing better? you go from mostly white tick emphasis to a random red tick being emphasized here
Since the intention is to resolve the anomalous rhythm by 00:50:252 (5,6,7) - , I would like to leave it as it is.
Since 00:54:100 (2,3) - is somewhat eased by the slider following, I do not think it is necessary to make the pattern identical.
Also, I think that making it a stack would emphasize the jump in 00:54:707 (6,7) -.
01:02:537 (1,2,3,4,5,6,1,2,3) - I think this should be 1/2 circles into triples as a buildup for 01:04:157 (4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,1) -
I don't think everything should be 1/2 circle because the 1/2 slider is an expression of the margins of the rhythm.
However, I think that the rhythm of the triplet at 01:03:482 (5,6,1) - was interfering with the burst at 01:04:157 (4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11) - so I would change this.
may do consistent spacing for 01:09:017 (1,2) like you did for 01:09:287 (3,4,5,6,7,8) for cleaner visuals
I want to reset aim strain without making it noticeable, so I think it is better to leave it as it is now.
01:14:957 (5,6) - spacing on this is kinda high compared to 01:58:158 (5,6) - 02:15:438 (5,6) - similar instances, could probably reduce this
I believe that deliberately slowing down the rhythmic take can raise players' expectations more.
02:20:298 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16)
may lower spacing for contrast with 02:21:378 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16)
same, lower for contrast with 03:13:218 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16) like you did for 03:15:108 (9,10,11,12,1)
03:15:378 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16)
same, lower for contrast with 03:16:458 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16) and further objects
04:10:459 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16)
same, but i feel like this is a problem stamp and lowering spacing is required because having a spaced stream on synths only (no drums) is very overdone
I'm going to change only 02:20:298 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16) and leave the rest as is.
04:10:459 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16) - This spacing supports the general intensity + the melodies pitch is still very high here so it shouldn't need to be nerfed IMO.
The other instances would go against the mappers diff progression gimmick and I think the angle changes work fine to represent the changes in the song.
02:22:458 - 02:26:778 - Would've been nice to do a buildup more similar to 01:38:177 - rather than just using the same DS as 02:20:298 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16) - since the intensity drops a lot 02:22:458 (1) - here in the song and builds back up.
Feels a bit too monotonous currently IMO.
I don't think it feels that monotonous. Rather, I think the concept of challenge is established because the concept of build-up is not applied, so I fear that applying this mod in terms of the overall scheme of the map would change the color of the entire map
As for 02:22:458 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11) - , I will keep it as is, but change 02:20:298 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16) - .
Some spacing between circles mid stream have inconsistenct distance snaps, not super noticeable on NM, but can be noticed on HR for sure. I think it's just an error buildup while copying/rotating/scaling streamshapes :/
I think not a big issue, but would be cool to be fixed in case of dq.
02:24:145 (10,11) - 02:23:335 (14,15) - 02:24:820 (4,5) - 02:25:090 (8,9) - 03:08:831 (16,1) - 03:16:121 (12,13) - etc.
these are pretty negligible but probably a good idea to fix 02:24:145 (10,11)
02:43:788 (1,2,3,4) - Maybe lower the spacing here since the piano is pretty quiet here and to give emphasis to 02:44:058 - the downbeat onwards?
03:07:548 (5,6,7,8,1) - You did something similar here so it would be nice for consistency as well.
Probably it will be fine as it is without any changes. The piano volume itself has not changed, and I am hoping that it will have the effect of relaxing the player's aim for the stream after the break.
02:51:618 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16) - Might be nice to use 3/4 sliders or something like you do at 03:06:198 (4,5,6,7,1,2,3,4) - here as a bridge between 02:49:458 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16) and 02:52:698 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15).
Otherwise this stream from 02:49:188 - 02:53:643 - just becomes a huge chain stream with the same spacing, while the song has pretty clear changes in intensity and pitch at 02:49:458, 02:50:538 (1), 02:51:618 (1), and 02:52:698 (1) that aren't being represented.
03:09:438 (9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16) - Could also try reverses here for a similar reason.
Though this is kinda fine if you don't want to change, since you could justify it as is by saying the density increases as the piano solo progresses for your difficulty progression concept.
I want to keep the nuance of the original map as much as possible, so I'll leave it as it is.
02:53:913 (1) - I think NC should be either here 02:53:643 (15) - or 02:54:183 (2) - for the pattern at 02:53:643 (15,1) -
02:54:858 (12,1,2,3,4) - NCing and emphasis on this stream is wrong compared to basically every other stream in the map -- downbeat should be NCed instead of the note after it, plus you usually relegate curves to white ticks (occasionally red ticks though 03:57:094 (7) - i think that only happens one time in the entire map too), this is one of two times you curve on a blue tick which is hella awkward to play; you can ask most stream players and they'd say more or less the same thing about stuff like this
would make more sense to have these curve on white ticks instead of blue ticks
This suggestion is cool, but I don't feel much different as it is. also it's different from my old concept, so I'll leave it at that.
03:25:301 (2,3) - 03:48:521 (6,7) - 03:52:301 (2,3) - why is this so spaced compared to 03:33:941 (2,3) - 03:39:611 (4,5) - 03:40:961 (7,8) - any of the other ones tho, especially for the first one
i can understand having more spacing 03:55:541 (2,3) - for these ones past this part since the song intensifies more, but i don't really get why these 3 in particular are inconsistent with the other 3
03:48:521 (6,7) - fixed spacing
03:25:301 (2,3) and 03:52:301 (2,3) - I adjusted the flow because I wanted to widen the spacing as a warm-up to the subsequent stream
I thought that adding a spinner would give the image of being presentable and would not make a good impression. I would like to preserve the nuances of the original map as much as possible.
