This is my only concern. I could care less about the new players or the server issues. I just hope the new growth doesn't bring legal attention with it.CuboidBeats wrote:

People who say he sucks are just hating on success. Will I watch him? No. His "humor" isn't for me. But whatever he's doing is clearly working seeing as how he pretty much owns YouTube at this point. He's found a formula and it sure as hell has been successful. I wouldn't change, either.

As a casual 4K Osu Mania player, the osu community itself is strong. I've been playing the game for a long time but not participating in the forums activity. I must say this is my first post and I am here to observe on what will happen to the osu community. But as far as I can see, the "kids" you're talking about may not survive since it takes skill and muscle memory to master the game.
Can anyone bother to explain why are you people blowing this out of proportion? I mean, is it really that bad? Can this single video do so much damage to the game? Yes, damage to the game not the community. My only worry is about the game itself since I only play solo and don't interact at all with the community, except for this time. *social anxiety intensifies*
Well, you ought to study people a bit more and interact with them in order to understand why they're doing what they're doing. Asking that question will give you a vague answer, but only you can understand the underlying cause of this entire mess. No one can 100% explain you why this whole shit happened, apart from a standardised answer like "they're kids jumping on a bandwagon". There is much more going on than what we see on the outer layer, and sadly, if you truly aren't good with people, you won't be able to uncover and understand it.
Everybody keeps saying the doom of osu, but I am pretty interested to see the change. Games are meant to be spread to everybody, and Pewds is giving Peppy a nice bit of spotlighting for the awesome game he created. Everybody deserves to play Osu, I know I love it!
Personally to me, osu! is something unique because it's not known by many people. Since it's popular, I lost the feel of uniqueness from osu! Why would the game be unique to me? It's because it was something I could show a friend at school, and get others interested because not many knew what it was.
Let's say for example, you have a favorite band that's not very well known, but in a few years it becomes surprisingly popular and nearly everyone you meet knows about it. To a person who's known about it before the boost of major popularity, it was something cool they could of shared around, but now that everyone knows who that band is, it feels uneasy to talk about it.
Of course, not everyone feels like that, but that's how I feel about it. I love osu! and I was introduced to it by a friend. As painful as it is to me that everyone I might talk to tomorrow will know about it before I could even explain to them about it, we'll just have hope for the best of osu! Yeah it's great that osu! will get a bigger fanbase, everything comes with the good and bad outcomes.
Again, this is my opinion, there are many other reasons why people agree or disagree with Pewdiepie's decision to play the game. Just remember, just because you played doesn't mean he can't (Just like pewd fans telling other youtubers that they can't play it
) It was very painful to watch him play, but it don't matter, we can still enjoy it whether there's pewd fans or not.
Although, DMCA copyrights... here they come......

I recommend reading up to the science of Ingroups and Outgroups, the Bandwagon effect, Social pressure and conformity, neural development in adolescenceSINHolyC wrote:

(note that the links don't lead you to the actual scientific parts, 3 go to wikipedia. But if you are interested you can start from there.)
Bonus: Snowball effect, Peer pressure
Well, that was a really deep philosophical vague answer if I ever saw one. It's not that I'm bad with people per se, it's just that I never bothered getting in touch with the osu! community because I only play the game for fun and as a way to kill time. From what I've read on this thread it seems to me people are blowing this out of proportion because they dislike / hate Pewdiepie and his fans, which to me is kinda stupid but to each its own. What I really want to know is if this could have any impact on the game itself as I don't really care about the community getting worse. I mean, a lot you guys think the community is already bad and cancerous, so there's that. So let me rephrase my question, can this influx of new players have any impact on the game itself? Like, connection issues to Bancho, big companies noticing the game because it got bigger which increases the risk of a cease and desist order, stuff like that.Aurani wrote:

@Railey2
Well, that is the answer I was looking for. Thanks.
*off-topic: This forum needs a simpler way of replying to people other than quoting them.

Just like Railey said, it's very unlikely that anything will change here considerably. You may see more kiddies running around, but it's nothing new, and Osu is already big enough for companies to notice it, so if that was a threat, it already would've happened.SINHolyC wrote:

This thread... Turned into a discussion about the difference of kids from adults.
Anywho, it was fun watching him play osu! and as others said, tutorial is still lacking to explain how the game is played, pretty sure he played it.
Wonder what will happen a few days after... *10 meeeelion users registered*. Oh well, it was a good way to give the game some popularity. Those who can't get the grip of how the game is played will surely quit right away but those who are determined will surely continue.

Drama aside, I'm a bit offended that he throws the term "anime" left and right just because it looks like anime.
1:05 -- Touhou, not anime, TOUHOU!!
2:41 -- No, piediepie, pippi is not anime (though I wish she was in one)
4:11 -- PIPPI IS NOT ANIME!!

And his vid is called "ANIME AF." -- WTF... I'm done

after i re-watch it.. its pretty much me
just hell man , the reason why osu got f**ked up community probably because all of you are separated with your own opinions and you keep debate about it.
i would stand in the middle because i know both sides have their own good thing and bad thing and i prefer not to talk about it and let the time decide.
EDIT : unimportant stuff : i already predicted that he'll play osu since 1 year ago when #osu randomly discuss him.
The only thing this provoked was people trolling as if they came from pdp and mass idiocy. I see nothing else different.
I feel that we should be more worried about copyright since osu! is bound to spread now that PewDiePie has played it.

also, his video title and thumbnail is really misleading. oh cmon, ANIME AF? That has nothing to do with a rhythm game like osu, why don't you try "CLICK THE CIRCLES" at least? that would be much more fitting and cr8tive
and what's up with him screaming "animmmeyyy animeeeee WOOOOOOO"? you can clearly see that he doesn't just play anime songs
can he get more cringier than this?
I bet that pewds will make another video like this sometime later

Osu is bound to spread anyway, especially in Japan. Pewds lately uses misleading titles and/or clickbait thumbnails for all his videos. 'Anime af' is a thing to him lately, he uses that for almost everything as a joke. Nothing will change just because Pewds played osu, the most immature part of his fanbase would leave osu again right away.

I'm not a lawyer, but there might be a lot of copyright claims and tons of songs can disappear thanks to that one video.
Swim or sink indeed.
I cried.
Keep in mind he has 40 million subscribers to keep happy. Which means he has to upload a variety of content daily. He plays multiple games, so he can't invest in 1 game only. That's probably the only video he's going to upload of Osu!, so he's not going to make an account for a game he'll probably never play again.Raiken- wrote:
He only play Solo.
As guest.
OK.
Honestly, that is the one thing I am worried about. Majority of osu! songs are all copyrighted music. If osu starts getting overpopular, companies like A1 pictures and singers like One Ok Rock will soon be filing tons of DMCA notices.Nameless wrote:

inb4 50 Millions players in December
this is honestly the greatest thing to ever happen to osu! in a long time
i can barely hold back the tears of laughter, not from the video but from the reactions people are having
in this thread alone you've got people with pony avatars, league of legends lingo and anime kits complaining about some cancerous fanbase invading their precious haven that is osu!
the irony is delectable
and the fact that he calls everything anime is legitimately great because that's what people would assume at a first glance (touhou, vocaloids, shit like that)
yeah it's not anime, but people who aren't in that kind of crap don't care and they shouldn't care -- and call you a nerd while they're at it
this goes all the way back to '08-'09 when we were having debates about if osu! is a western or eastern game, now the question pretty much answers itself but the anal devastation from the video is exquisite especially when i see stuff like "oh osu! is mainstream now" even though it's been that way for like three years; we're getting 15k people online a day when back in the day bancho would crash when it got over 1000
guess what there's a pretty good chance most people who watch pdp don't give two fucks about anime or clicking circles and will let the game rot in their desktop after two weeks. not to say that this won't cause prime shitposting from 12 year olds but the arguments between them and the hardcore anime experts will be grandiose
future's so bright i gotta wear shades

To be honest, the trend will die out soon, and if not, it's actually profitable for peppy, because more player = more people buying supporter = more cash
The only thing we'll need to worry is our "legal" music, although prob we'll be fine because after 8 years we're still good, right?
