Rhythm Games Have An Elitism Problem | Jacen Sekai

I've developed a bad habit of doomscrolling Reddit to stay up to date on the news from my various hobbies. During one of these sessions, I saw a post about the high skill floor of community-based rhythm games. Unsurprisingly, this post was downvoted to oblivion, which I think serves to prove that the OP has a point: rhythm gaming has an elitism problem that makes it difficult to get in on the ground floor.

"Beat Buffoonery" is a rhythm-based game where musical precision meets humor. Control your jester, follow the high notes, and keep the king entertained — or face dismissal.

Got Stepmania (Outfox) set up on my new laptop as the first order of business and then burned 1000 calories.
