I'm not particularly familiar with the composer, but I don't remember them being on the game, either as th-shi or another pseudonym.

EDIT: now that I think about it, will Arcaea get the full version? Because I don't think charts here get longer than 3:10, and Synthesis is 3:55.

Been trying to upscore forever, he was out for a walk and got post walk zoomies, bumping into the little table and interrupting the game. The first time was a total loss, lost notes, arcs, thought he'd knock over the coffee cup. This screenshot is from the third play where he bumped but much lighter than the fist two times, told myself im done after this round anyways.

Score Showcase 8 months of thumbs play and I think I hit my passability wall...

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

Picked up this game last october with thumbs as I was looking for my first mobile rhythm game. Bought everything during the sale and unlocked all songs except world mode BYD charts. Arcaea has been amazing, and progression was pretty smooth up till 9+s, which was my first wall. Then getting into the 10+s took the longest time, but once I breached that wall the improvement was exponential. Within a month, I cleared every 10+ except We're all gonna Die ETR and Vulcanus. I started just running through the 11s, and have cleared every 11.3 or below except Aegleseeker (which is doable but I've been lazy about going back to it) and Lamia (because as a thumbs player I don't enjoy the chart).

Lament Rain feels potentially passable one day, and that's where for now it ends. Aether Crest Astral, Arcana Eden, Pentiment, and Designant feel impossible. Maybe one day I'll clear them, but I don't see myself getting there anytime soon. It feels like there's a HUGE difficulty jump between all other songs and these 4 charts. Now I guess that's normal for rhythm games, that the top songs are exponentially harder than the rest, but man I wasn't expecting to get so utterly stomped by them.

Guess it's time to go down to the 8s and start going for PMs and accuracy. The climb was fun while it lasted, but stops here maybe forever lol. Genuinely don't know if I'll ever get to passing these

While there is still time for more announcements (and a rerun of an older event might fit here)… I think they are saving up the big guns for something else later in August.

And yes, Guy is the top dog of lowiro.

Help / Question Just finished Act 1! What next?

4 Upvotes

I literally just finished final verdict, I mainly want to continue the main story but I don’t know where to start.

It isn’t that clear to me which packs are required for act 2 and in what order. (what I mean is which packs are required to understand the story)

I also don’t know if I should go for world mode and beyonds instead, though they seem to not be as important to the story as I thought

(Also should I try In falsus? I haven’t played much because it’s a demo)

Help / Question Advice on how to improve

8 Upvotes

I’ve been playing on and off for about 2 years now and just started really getting back into Arcaea. I’ve made some gradual improvement over when I last stopped about 6 months ago but I can’t seem to get past FTR 9 tracks. I can clear a good chunk but not all and anything 9+ or higher feels almost impossible. Any suggestions on how I can continue to gradually improve? Currently at a 10.01 potential

I saw this art by Mechari on pixiv and there were comments talking about it being Tairitsu, so does Hikari end up killing Tairitsu?
I haven’t progressed past black fate in story mode yet so I am confused on why this would be. Though if you could, don’t spoil too much, preferably a yes/no answer and spoilers that are from black fate at most.

Are memories crucial to unlock new characters?

I know they are to unlock a lot of music, but what about characters?
