Definitely! which is why I saved it for last in the set I tried clearing it a ton of times on a Super Nova 2 cab and only would get about halfway through before being out of breath so to finally clear it has been such an awesome feeling :)
Thank You! never thought i’d see the day where I actually got through Faxx and not see a fail or game over screen. To also be able to clear it in a set against the other boss songs I grew up playing was just absolute insanity aha appreciate the support 😄
I honestly wasn’t going to but another player came up to me and was telling me how he was in my livestream and watching me try to clear that song so I thought it would be funny to play it again as my extra stage. Had 0 confidence going into it honestly aha
Right!? I can’t believe I went from not able to clear a 17 at all by itself to being able to clear it as an extra stage with all previous songs being Max Songs as well aha so happy with my progress Let Me Know is seriously such a fun freaking chart and the song sounds so cool too! its definitely one of my favorite newer songs as an old school player
Really solid video overall. I haven’t really seen DDR content like yours before, it gives a really cool journey vibe and was definitely put together well. You had some really great sets with lots of variety and that Max set was crazy good. Keep up the solid work🙏🙏
@@Hovarh Thanks for checking out my video! I definitely lean more towards “vlog” style than a typical “gaming” video, so glad to see so many people tuning in and enjoying my creations! that Max Set btw was something I use to dream of doing before I quit DDR around 10 years ago so to come back and be able to clear all the max songs on pad that I grew up playing on PS2 with a CONTROLLER was soooooooooo satisfying for me and an accomplishment I didn’t think was possible… glad to share it with the world :)
Dude, the cab's volume is still so low. I even had one of the tech's raise it up to a higher volume, but I still can't hear it whenever somebody hops on that damn Initial D game lol
the first time I went into round 1 they only had the white cab and it wasn’t anywhere near the initial d game and it sounded so good… still not very loud but at least there wasn’t any games blasting in your ear (well there was that wall of buttons game… only noisy when someone was playing it tho so it was a once in a while thing) ever since they moved it to be in between SMX and PIU I hear those games more and now with the gold cab you still can’t hear anything from the surrounding games it’s such a weird decision by the arcade… we should make a petition or something get like 100 signatures and take it to them to move the machines somewhere else or at least raise the volume to the point where it’s loud enough that we can’t hear anything else while on the pad 😂
@@erickruano305 hey!!! welcome to the channel 😄 you were one of the first people I met on my DDR journey you gave me some advice and info so just wanted to say thanks and appreciate it 😊 hopefully i’ll be able to clear paranoia revolution one day 😆😆🤣
check out the DDR pads for sale facebook group and things like craigslist/offerup/marketplace sometimes you can get lucky and get a little bit of an older pad for around $100 or less
Yeah it's a gimmick song that requires memorization, makes it unique and fun to watch though. I suck at it personally, I have the stops memorized but my accuracy is horrendous on it lol
@@sk8ssorry for the later reply, I don’t use it because it ads clutter to the screen (one reason why I don’t use the “grid” or whatever it’s called those white lines behind the arrows) I like to have my screen as clutter free as possible even if that means giving up some valuable info like the fast/slow text
@@RaverBarbz92 the lowest I’ve gotten to was 257 if I’m not mistaken, but because of the holiday and a vacation I put a few pounds back on. I have a bar coming in today for my LTEK I plan on doing a very strict diet with mostly water for the next 20 something days until New Year’s to see how much weight I could lose before 2025
I was curious on how you improved accuracy+timing over the years? Caveats: I adjust my arrow timing to 2.0 and it just seems to work a little better for my reading ● I play no-bar a majority of the time, and if I do use the bar I'm completely awkward with my arm placement and think I'm putting on too much shoulder strain (5'1, but honestly Ik there's short players that I've yet to crack the code) 😅 But it's been hard for me to clear 940k regularly, 950 if I'm lucky, and that's me thinking I already played fairly well lol. Too many goods/greats
@@unknowndeoxys00 Honestly the only thing I could think of that improved my accuracy over the years is the amount of hours I put into DDR (played a LOT off pad as well things like PlayStation/PSP/Keyboard on StepMania etc) Eventually the timing and accuracy just fell into place. I recently tried playing no bar and seriously could not play anything that was “hard” (max 300 for example was a failure) I actually went to the arcade for this video/session because I don’t have a bar currently and wanted to play like really badly (my “bar” was a chair from a dining set which has been sold and I haven’t found a replacement yet 😅😂)
The thing with me is that i’ve been playing DDR (on pad or controller/keyboard) for over 20 years so I don’t really know any way to improve read ability other than constantly playing. I know that isn’t necessarily a tip but DDR has been one of if not my most played video games ever so naturally spending that many hours into it helped me read a bit better although when patterns are on the weird side I definitely lose track of what’s going on when i’m on the more tired side 😅😂
Fascination is hands down the hardest of the 4 in your thumbnail. The first level 17 ever made.
Definitely! which is why I saved it for last in the set

congrats dude! your investments in your stamina and techniques are clearly paying dividends. keep it up!

I wasnt expecting the Paranoia Revolution runback in the arcade LOL also nice sets overall idk if its an arcade pad buff but the ltek does wonders
I honestly wasn’t going to but another player came up to me and was telling me how he was in my livestream and watching me try to clear that song so I thought it would be funny to play it again as my extra stage. Had 0 confidence going into it honestly aha
Dude your stamina is definitely improving so much! You did amazing!
Also Let Me Know is one of my favorite newer charts ever. It's so much funnnnnn!!

ever since they moved it to be in between SMX and PIU I hear those games more and now with the gold cab you still can’t hear anything from the surrounding games it’s such a weird decision by the arcade… we should make a petition or something get like 100 signatures and take it to them to move the machines somewhere else or at least raise the volume to the point where it’s loud enough that we can’t hear anything else while on the pad 😂
wow look at that DDR WORLD right here
the DDR Gold cab is so nice looking but the pads suck so bad 😭
I can hear myself when we talked lol

Sound wise, MaxX Unlimited is my favorite Max song. TLOM comes second. MAX. Is third.
Maxx Unlimited is sooooooo good 🙂↕️
Wish pads were not so expensive! Gonna save up for a LTek one day, for now I’m a keyboard stepmania player

I wanna see you play Chaos 😬
@@Bryan-wb7te I did play it on livestream once aha it’s not my favorite DDR song 🤣

I actually made an edit to it with new bpm changes and I like that version a lot more ahaha
why dont you use the fast slow feature
@@sk8s the what?
Edit: do you mean the text that pops up letting you know if you’re early/late?
@@DietDietRevolutionyes that is it

What’s the weight update? I came from a video 1yr ago and you were 280s! I need an update :)

Yo you habe any tips on improving read ability? When it gets so dense i get lost.
