Why did you join Osu, what made you hit download and start up the game for the first time?

I saw a funny gif of a cat playing sound voltex and it made me want to play a VSRG, so I tried mania... and here we are today.

At first I saw someone play some version of Elite Beat Agent (or its Japanese counterpart? or its some other localizations? idk) on the DS. Thought was interesting, didn't know what it was.

Then a few years later I saw a video of Osu! gameplay. Got interested and followed the beatmap link in the description to the Osu! website and downloaded the game.

it seemed like a cool modern music game and it's free!!
honestly the music was the main reason i clicked download
also i saw some osu gameplay (not big black) but it's very vague before i played osu!

i didn't came from a friend or some famous person it's just familiarity

uhhh i came from freedom dive and galaxy collapse
i saw some freedom dive showcase in rythm games and 2 of them were from osu!
the 7k mania caught my eye as it seemed very interesting. and now ehh i can't easily leave this place anymore ;w; the music is too good. the game is very well designed

My older sibling was playing is and I just kinda wanted to try. I originally played an android port of it, but then moved to *actual* osu.

I Found osu because i like music alot while i was 9.
and i was like idk. need some favor.
so i checked some good rhythm games like Etterna.
Then i was scrolling on youtube and seen:

"Cookiezi | xi - FREEDOM DiVE [FOUR DIMENSIONS] HDHR FC 99.83% 800pp | Livestream w/ chat reaction!" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsYLIg67pYo

Kinda Felt Like: "Whats osu! ?"
And i watched video by second to second until the end.
after watching this, i downloaded osu! to my uncle's PC. (HE PLAYS BATTLEFIELD OR COD AND YES, HE IS A GAMER.)
after downloading i opened a account called "Ozan Nation"

(yes i was dumb and i used my real name i dont have nickname i was 9 bruh.)

Played Some Maps with default skin and found about what is a skin
(my first skin's name was "SKINWITHOUTNAME" i think, and it was poggers)

Thennnnnnnnn-
I Quited the game accidently-

Later i bought my OWN Laptop (Laptop is pain, dont buy it fgs)
and i opened my account called: "FlameRX" then Changed To "Noreu" With Supporter

Now.

Im Playing Mania And Standard and almost having a 100pp play at standard.

Im not feeling bad about playing this game, and this was my best accident i ever made.

Have a great day! | 28 September 2021

That's real cool, I actually too have a similar experience, where I quit standard and started mania, and main-ing mania. Back in 2019, it was a friend (He didn't play much) who wanted me to play with him. I spent about 2 hours trying to get an SS with FLDTHDHR on a 1 star

And I started mania when I got bored in quarantine...

I was on my PC, bored (still on quarantine) watching some Youtube Videos. A few minutes later, i've stumbled on that Video
So, i clicked it



After the Video, i clicked the Beatmap Link, so i can watch his Replay. But osu! said: Sign In to access more Features. Annoyingly, i clicked it and it led into a Download Link to osu!. So, i downloaded it and there it is.

December 6th 14:49:42


osu! showed me some Starter Maps and i played the Tutorial. As always, i had shitty acc and immeaditely searched up for Improvement like this Video.


Days Later i Tested positive again for Covid 19 and had to stay for another 10 Days at Home. So i played osu nonstop. I had improved so much until i begged my Mom to buy a Tablet for school reasons but obviously that's a lie. But it Worked! So anyways, I played soo much that i'm on 100k now.

On July i started joining in the Forums and met new Friends.

Man, i just wrote an Biography about myself :lol:
Kaaruumii
i remember back around 2017 i played the tutorial on osu and people saw me play it and started spectating and roasting the shit outta me, i quit because i thought they we all weeb losers with no life anyway, then after 5 years later i realize i am garbage at guitar hero so i started playing mania since 3 and a half months ago and now i am also a weeb loser with no life :D

I think it was WubWoofWolf playing U.N. Owen Was Her (Ronald McDonald ver.) that intrigued me into this game. It was on my recommendations and I clicked on it.
Everything about the video made me want to play it from the get go. I checked out more of his videos, then I checked out other osu! videos, and that's how I got here.
TGGD
I saw BTMC play it and thought the game looked cool
keremaru
Classmate in my freshman English class introduced me to osu!, and it turned out that there were a bunch of people at my school that played osu!. At least six to seven, including myself. Then I wanted to be the best at everything at my school, and I'm still on that road to this day.

First off, I never hit download and the first time I played I didn't start the game.

I saw a schoolmate play osu! in the school cafeteria, it looked interesting so I asked if I could try, and indeed it was so interesting that I bought a USB flash for said schoolmate to copy the game onto, since then I played offline until I managed to create my account roughly a year later.
Best 5€ I ever spend on a USB drive :)

So a bit of a long story but it also explains my username.

So I played final fantasy games alot as a kid and have been a big fan of the franchise. So I had been playing minecraft alot and stumbled across a final fantasy themed server so I joined. On that server everyone picked a final fantasy character to roleplay as so I picked Edgar Figaro.

One day was hanging out with them in teamspeak (ah the old days before discord) and they all wanted to play this free rhythm game called osu. I joined and just to have my username match my character on the server named myself Edgar here as well.

Haven’t seen any of those guys playing osu in years but I am still here.

Sorry for bad English. I posted this about 3 years ago.

I searched up "Best Rhythm games for PC" on Bing.com and I found out osu. Booted up the game knowing nothing about it and here I am.

Fun Story: By the time I clicked the download button, I was thinking if doing it or not, so that day, I was playing Geometry Dash on my PC (because yes), and then I start playing the level "Poltergeist", an Insane Demon, and I think: "If I can't get a new record I will download osu!", then I couldn't, so I typed osu.ppy.sh, clicked download and the rest is history.
