I don't know why, but it looks pretty similar to Xiao's Nexus (Slate/Ivory) Skin, but with a own touch and all playmodes.
NeOsu 2 had a unique aesthetic to it, which I thought was cool. This is uncomfortably similar. I'm not going to whine and moan about it—after all, I can't claim an aesthetic as my own. At least you skinned all the modes.

If I look through the screenshots now, I actually see the similarity. The style is about 80-90% similar, from the colors to forms or styling of various elements.

You can take different looks at it...it's sure okay to take some ideas and make them into something better, but a bit more difference would be better, because this just reminds me too much of Nexus. And, sure...Ideas for skins aren't made in a day or two, it takes sometimes a lot of time so it may be easier to look up for some clues from other skins, but what we've got here is a really high similarity. After all it is Xiao's Skin and his choice if it is too much similarity or not, so I'm quite fine with that.

But yes, after all that negative comments or critics I have to say that it also has it own style...some texts here and there and hexagons. Also this blue/grayish color-theme looks quite nice and futuristic. The skin is nothing that rapes your eyes while playing and the effects and hits stay near the new standard skin.

Overall it's a quite nice skin and I think that's the most important thing after all :>

Result:

Pro

- The futuristic look and the blue/grayish-theme look nice
- The idea of an own character for the skin (and maybe more characters) is nice
- It's not bloated and annoys while playing
- All playmodes are skinned

Contra

- Taiko: The hits overlay the next circles, so it's harder to play (fix is already assigned)
- High similarity to Nexus (some elements look like taken from the Skin and only some effects and texts were changed, harsh said)

It's definitely well made. I can appreciate good work and I'll give credit where it's due: this looks good and I can tell time was put into making it, without a doubt.

I look forward to seeing more of your skins moving forward. You have talent in a technical sense; I just hope you can develop it with your own creative sense.

Awesome skin! I love the colors and the modernness of it. I did notice a couple bugs though, mania-key1@2x is the same size as mania-key1, score-4@2x
and score-7@2x are missing. Thanks for all your hard work! :D

It's been months since I released NeOsu 2 (which is... failed orz)... after peppy's Major UI update (which i like the most but it's pain...), I decided to create this one... NeOsu 3 -the 3rd innovation-
NO3 is complete but more branches will come... (NO3 update will be also present, if available)

:arrow: All elements have HD Support
:arrow: Same old styles from the previous NeOsu 2 applied with some twists
:arrow: Fonts are mostly ARS Maquette Pro (i used a little Myriad Pro and Strasua this time)
:arrow: NeO's first appearance (I drew her and thanks to Nijiiru for the colors >w<)
:arrow: New sounds (but the hitsounds will still remain default)
:arrow: NeO's voice added (Momone Momo of UTAU as NeO)
:arrow: Skinned for all modes
:shock: Uses old skin behaviour

SPOILER
Well... I spent almost a week in order to finish this skin including the @2x thingies... 7 hours in Photoshop makes my life good 8-)

I'm kinda used to use peppy/RBRat's move (outerglow + dropshadow) in my test skin and I found out that it is better to use it for skinning the new default...

So yeah, last 15th of May (GMT+8), I celebrated my 2nd year in osu! \:D/ And as always, my back hurts after using the computer... It seems like I lost my sitting posture... orz

I would like to thank Nijiiru for coloring my artwork... :) and to deadbeat for locking some useless threads (inb4 he's faster than Heibel) :D
WELCOME TO THE NEO SYSTEM AND ENJOY :)
