I know we already have an easy mod that makes the songs easier and more forgiving and also a No Fail mod for those looking for a more chill play, but after talking to some friends that are starting now on osu, we came to a conclusion that those mods are more distracting than anything, and we came up with a idea, inspired by Guitar Hero, that might be better for some players that are starting now on osu or just want to play "for fun". This mod could exist as an "Easy Mod v2".
Changes:
• 100 and 50 score now works as 150 score, which means that, no matter if you hit too early or late on the circle, the HP will recover as if you have hit it perfectly (but the game still shows you if you got 150, 100 or 50 score)
• HP drain will not occur over time, only if you miss a circle or slider
• Slider will not count as missed if you hitted it at the beginning, but will count as missed otherwise
• Size of circles and hitbox continues the same as usual
Who is this mod for?
This mod would be for those who are starting on osu but already have some experience in other rhythm games, for those who's just playing for fun, want to keep the original "feeling" of the song but not looking to have great precision atm, those who're training to get better but not wanting to get too frustrated by the high difficulty some songs can be. This mod is NOT for those who are great at the game and are training to get FC or a high score.
Why use this mod instead of the usual Easy mod/No Fail mod?
The Easy mod currently on osu makes the circle too big and the hitbox gets bigger as well. This might be good for those really starting in the rhythm genre, but for those who're looking for an "easy mode" and play harder songs/have some experience with rhythm games, this mod makes the circles too distracting, sometimes making a mess on the screen and making it actually harder than easier to play.
The No Fail mod currently on osu makes the songs more chill to play, since you wont lose even if you miss everything, but this mod takes out all of the fun of being in a challenge in which you can actually fail.
The "Easy Mod v2" would be something in between the current Easy mod and the No Fail mod, which makes the song easier but you still can lose if you are not careful enough.
TL;DR
Easy Mod v2 would be a mod in between the current Easy mod and the No Fail mod, which makes the song easier but you still can lose if you are not careful enough, by mimicing how Guitar Hero handles the HP of the player.
