March 24, 2023 Beat Saber!
HAIII EVERYBODY THAT READS MY BLOG!!!! HOW AR YOU TODAY? I AM PERSONALLY
VERY GOOOD.... HAPPPPPPYYY FRIDAY!!!!
SOOOOO I'VE BEEN USING OUR
VR SYSTEM A LOT LATELYYY. WE'VE HAD IT SINCE... ERR... 3 YEARS AGO NOW?
MY PASSAGE OF TIME IS NOT VERY IN TUNE... BUT WHATEVER. I'VE NEVER BEEN
A FREQUENT USER OF IT BESIDES LIKE FOOLING AROUND W MY QPP AND FRIENDS
IN VRCHAT FROM TIME TO TIME OR PISSING MYSELF TRYING TO PLAY FNAF
WHILE STREAMING IT TO MY FRIENDS. MY HM REYNOLD IS KINDA THE VR KID
BUUUT III HAD SOME EXTRA MONEY LAYING AROUND AND I FIGURED. YOU KNOW WHAAAT..
BEAT SABER LOOKS REALLY REALLY FUN. I LOVE RHYTHM GAMES AND THE APPEAL OF
THAT WAS ALREADY THERE AND ALSO ITS LIKE. ONE OF THE BIGGEST GAMES THAT COMES
TO MIND WHEN YOU THINK VR. SO I WAS LIKE. YEAH SURE! LET'S BUY IT AND GIVE IT A TRY.
THE APPEAL OF MODDING CUSTOM SONGS IN WAS ALREADY THERE AND WHEN I FOUND OUT THEY
HAD VOCALOID MUSIC I WAS INFINITELY MORE EXCITEDDGJNHGSEIES
SO I BOOTED IT UP AND PLAYED THROUGH THE TUTORIAL AFTER I INSTALLED LIKE A FEW
SONGS THAT I WAS INTERESTED IN AND ACED THE TUTORIAL COMPLETELY. HOWEVER APPARENTLY
MY EGO WAS WAY TOO INFLATED OR SOMETHING BECAUSE I ASSUMED OFF THE BAT I'D BE ABLE
TO DO HARD SONGS AND ABOVE AND JUST. COMPLETELY HUMILIATED MYSELF. IT WAS SO BAD
I DIED LIKE LITERALLY IMMEDIATELY.
EGO NOT SWAYED I FIGURE LET'S GO DOWN TO MEDIUM AND HOLY FUCK I CAN'T????? DO THAT
EITHER???? I HAD TO GO DOWN TO EASY AND I STILL WAS FUCKING DYING IMMEDIATELYLSEJGESI
THIS WAS LITERALLY THE FIRST TIME I'VE EVER PICKED UP A RHYTHM GAME AND COULDN'T
IMMEDIATELY START ON HARD OR ABOVE WITH A HIGH SPEED... IT WAS DEFINITELY A COME
TO GOD MOMENT
SO WHATEVER I FIX THIS ISSUE BY ENABLING THE ANTI FAIL MODIFIER OR WHATEVER IT WAS
CALLED SO I COULD PRACTICE WITHOUT THE GAME TELLING ME WHAT A BIG FAT BEING FAILURE
I AM BUT HOLY HELL I REALIZE VERY QUICKLY THAT THIS GAME IS A LOT MORE PHYSICALLY DEMANDING
THEN I REMEMBER... THEN AGAIN, I HAVE ONLY PLAYED ONCE AT A BOOTH AT A PRIDE PARADE. THE
BODY I UNFORTUNATELY RESIDE IN IS ALSO DISABLED SO IT WAS A BIIIT OF A SLAP IN THE FACE.
I WAS NOT AWARE THERE WAS DUCKING/LEANING INVOLVED BECAUSE WHEN I SAW GAMEPLAY OF BEAT
SABER ON YOUTUBE OR WHATEVER I FIGURED YOUR SABERS COULDN'T TOUCH THE BIG EVIL CUBE.
IMAGINE MY SURPRISE WHEN I REALIZED I HAD TO BE THE ONE DODGING THE BIG EVIL CUBE. NOT
TO MENTION THROWING YOUR ARMS AROUND A WHOLE BUNCH IS ALSO A LOT MORE TIRING THAN I'D
ORIGINALLY ASSUMED. I CAN REALLY UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE USE BEAT SABER TO WORK OUT NOW
BUUUUT... DESPITE ALL OF THIS, I HAD LIKE AN INFINITE AMOUNT OF FUN. I WAS HITTING JACK
SHIT OBVIOUSLY BUT I WAS TRYING MY BEST AND SINCE SOME OF MY FAVORITE SONGS WERE AVALIABLE
FOR ME TO PLAY FOR FREE WITHOUT ANY WORK OR EFFORT PUT IN TO UNLOCK THEM OR JUST FLAT OUT HAVING TO PAY FOR THEM
WAS. A NICE CHANGE OF PACE, FOR SURE!! AND IT WAS HONESTLY A REALLY NICE WORKOUT, TOO. I MIGHT
JUST START PLAYING REGULARLY BOTH FOR FUN AND TO BE ACTIVE BECAUSE LIKE I MENTIONED. DISABLED.
MAKES IT KINDA DIFFICULT TO PARTICIPATE IN OTHER ACTIVITIES TO STAY HEALTHY
SO, THAT WAS MY FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH BEAT SABER IN, LIKE, 4 YEARS. MAYBE I'LL WRITE ANOTHER
BLOG POST WHEN MY SKILL HAS IMPROVED, MWEHEHEHE....!
THAT'S ALL FOR NOW !
