at this point i should probably just archive this blog. i don't play the game much anymore. definitely not enough to justify an entire blog dedicated to it. straight up deleting would be a shame tho. i kinda want to keep it up as a sort of artifact from the time in my life when i was obsessed with this game.
so... yeah. goodbye, rhythm hive. goodbye, rubyrhythmposts. it was good while it lasted.

should i tweak my pinned? i'm definitely not addicted to the game like i used to be. but if i edited it i'd probably end up sounding really dry

also for everyone complaining that the game is now "too hard": people were complaining about the previous version because the game was too easy. i hate flick notes too but they don't make the game that much harder. and the cheaty hold note bug feature made the game a straight-up joke of a rhythm game. yeah the new notes feel clunky, but it's a matter of getting used to it. just like every other rhythm game.
#୧ ‧₊˚ ⋅🌷 ruby.txt#rhythm hive#there's also the hp system now. but that's honestly been a standard feature of rhythm games for years#and with all the extra free gems you get out of high combos#i feel like it's only fair to raise the difficulty up a little bit#'cause let's be real if you're struggling to even survive through the whole song#you couldn't hope to get any combo gems at all anyway#plus you get five free restarts PER DAY so you're not wasting so many music discs replaying a song because you can't quite clear it#that's way more leeway than any rhythm game i've ever played before#honestly if there's anything positive i can say about rhythm hive#it's that you literally never run out of stamina. and that's even when you're no-lifeing the game like i did once upon a time#other rhythm games only let you play a couple times a day because of how their stamina systems work#take a sip of water every time i say “rhythm game”

looked at the google play reviews for the game. and atp idk what people want from rhythm hive
#୧ ‧₊˚ ⋅🌷 ruby.txt#rhythm hive#people bitched during the last major update about the exact same things that people are bitching about now#i'm not trying to white knight for hybe or anything. but as far as my own thoughts on the game#yeah the game got harder because of flick notes and the new note tiles maybe aren't the most intuitive#but save for the songs labeled as “renewed” (i.e. they have flick notes now) a lot of the beat maps are still exactly the same#i'd wager maybe all of the non-renewed songs are#any clunkiness in the general ui has been in the game since forever#and you can't tell me the new card leveling system isn't a massive improvement over the old one#before you needed two max level xr rarity copies of one card to get a ur. and also a ridiculous amount of those vocal/performance chips#now you only need one copy. and there's only one special rarity upgrade currency instead of two#and if you're not a multistan you can exchange all your high rarity cards from other groups you don't care about#either for that new upgrade currency or a card from the group you actually care about#don't get me wrong there's a lot i can criticize about this update#the new gacha for example with all the groups in one pool. that's the only change people bring up that's legitimately indefensible#it just annoys me that so many people are coming out of the woodwork asking for the old update#when i know for a fact that that previous update was universally shat on#and if they mean the previous previous update when mix challenges were still a thing and cheer mode didn't exist#honestly why were they still playing up to this point. everyone and their mother was saying that that update singlehandedly killed the game#to me it really feels like people are complaining just because people like to complain about change#otherwise they'd bring up problems that weren't already there since the previous major update

fuck you game oh my god
#୧ ‧₊˚ ⋅🌺 ruby.log#rhythm hive#the health system#the FUCKING HEALTH SYSTEM#every single mistake drains your hp SO MUCH#i think that must've only been like 10 misses and i already failed#i went back in and didn't play it on purpose just to get this screenshot cuz i couldn't get it the first time#so not only do you have to have your cards leveled#you have to actually be good at the game#because this ain't llsif (rest in peace) where you have healer cards#the hp thing is basically just a mistake counter#and on top of that,you have incentive to play the full song because you get free gems for reaching higher combos#if you fc the short version it still shows up as 'perfect hits' in the song selection page#but if you click on the medal icon beside the album art it shows you a record of stuff such as#difficulty cleared. highest score reached. number of times played. highest combo reached.#and there are tiers of those for which you get free gems if you reach them#so... yeah.........

so... a couple things.

all my old records are gone. which yeah makes sense since they completely changed the beatmaps for like, everything. more on that in a bit.
Edit: They did NOT change the beatmaps. They literally just reskinned them. I only realized after playing hard mode because then they started feeling familiar. So I assume the flick notes are for newer songs, for new super hard songs, or were retroactively added to old super hard songs. God knows tho idk if I can fc these this new look feels kinda clunky. And because they kept the insane hold note patterns from before yet removed the cheeky cheaty no-thoughts-head-empty-just-hold thing, hold notes are ruining my entire career now.
Edit 2: Oooooooookayyyyyyy, the flick notes are in the songs marked with "RENEWAL". Even in easy mode they're in there.

the prep screen is just a whole entire new thing. first of all, there's an hp mechanic now. there's also a "voltage"-esque power requirement now too (if you play enstars or love live all stars you'll know what i'm talking about; i'm too small-brained to explain atm). everything else was present in the old app, just reskinned and shuffled around.

(i sacrificed my full combo for this screenshot i hope ur happy)
obviously everything just looks different now. for one, the area is way more compact and has better contrast (although maybe with the fancy paid themes it's a different story but i'm f2p so i don't have any of that shit). the four things i want to point out tho are:
there's actually tapping sfx now (which ig should've been obvious from that preview of the settings in the notice board)
you can't cheat hold notes anymore like you used to be able to in the old game. you legitimately have to follow the trajectory or else it's a miss
there are flick notes now. which are the bane of my existence in literally every single rhythm game so i'm malding over the fact that they're here now too. (actually they could be worse tbh; they're not as terrible here as in other games. but still)
why is easy mode so much harder than i remember it being??? i mean i'm still kinda getting used to this new look and stuff so i won't be fc-ing everything right away. maybe that's affecting my perception a little bit. i'll run through it a few more times to see for sure


results screen and rewards
so far, it's looking like they did an overhaul of the whole game and made it more akin to every other modern rhythm game in existence. i can't say i like all the changes, but overall it's pretty alright. i appreciate the qol updates at the very least
#୧ ‧₊˚ ⋅🌺 ruby.log#rhythm hive#oh yeah also#cheer mode is nowhere to be seen#which#lmao#they couldn't be bothered to fix it so they just scrapped it#tbf i don't think many people would've liked it even if it did work as intended#also live mode seems to be gone too#i mean in the old game there was no point since you were literally just playing with fake little computer ''accounts''#(trust me i investigated it and fully intended to post about it before i unfortunately fell off the game)#it seems they recognize that their playerbase is just way too small to realistically host a true multiplayer mode#so they just got rid of that too instead of keeping up with the illusory multiplayer that was live mode

okay this is confusing me a little but i'll probably get it fairly quickly. but rn it just seems like they made the card leveling system a bit more complicated. there didn't used to be a risk of failure for upgrading to xr

also what is sell??? what is trade???? what is anything?????
(also totally not flexing my card collection hi hello how are you) (ignoring the fact that i dont have a single ur card)

okay, so they basically got rid of the whole "you have to switch 'worlds' to access each group" thing and just made them all available in one place

i like how i can actually buy artist stickers with f2p gems this time. iirc these types of stickers used to be paid gems only
