Kohmi Hirose - Promise by downpour

this is on omdb now i wonder what the ratings will be/

Oh..

creative mapping tho

dont think i can rate this ngl

if only top diff was more consistent

@lince i am dying to know what you would rate coconut mall

its either a 4 or a 0

execution is off the building 🤡

its funny though

like i'd geniunely understand if it wasnt for the shittiest execution ive ever seen in a map, but saying that ''it's feel of music'' is just outright wrong and delusional

the feel of deez nuts in your face

get upvoting comments into omdb please

Feel deez nuts

can someone gift me supporter

i dont get it because i dont think there is anything to get because t he map is mapped off of downpours own interpretation of the song

Was about time someone added this 😭😭😭

it was only eligible yesterday as that was the day it hit 6 months graved.

i've been patiently waiting for this day

I'm gonna be honest I totally understand why this map is so divisive but to me this map captures emotion in a raw way. I'll write a little more on it later.

But I do have to say it is wild to me some people dislike this more than Nexta...

@app I would love if you elaborated or DMed me about that because I don't think that is the majority opinion among those who dislike it :o I haven't really heard that before

map reminds me of random japanese mario maker levels that u get on 100 man super expert where there are like 3 bowsers stacked on top of each other and theres a hidden block somewhere with a star in it

now i REALLY want comment upvotes after that fatfan kolek statement

ngl i rated this remembering only the chorus, rest of the map really is something else

its a funny map thumbs up

while u could argue that nexta has worse mapping fundamentals i think that for most people the way u chose to map this is too egregious to look past as theres a difference between overmapping and just inventing 8-9* 1/8 deathstreams

i think it's cool but i can't rate this

gonna look at the top diff 10 more times to see if anything changes.

neat ideas but too spiky for my taste tbh, i respect alot the filler rhythms those are so cool

this is what it means to make a map that's not meant to be played

almost made an 8 star for this

i don't get it

the lobotomy dash mapping of osu

fire in tha hole

making me remember this oh hell nah

this is what it means to make a map that's not meant to be played [2]
i do frankly think putting this on omdb is a mistake

fire in tha hole

97 years old diner still serves their cola the old fashioned way

honestly the best feature of ios

i like this map, probably more than a mere bit

the outrageously cheated linked youtube replay is probably the best part

rhythm masterclass.

the replay omg

no aim :(

what expressiveness this map does display in the form of interpretive rhythm is mostly tarnished by a lack of interesting choreographic elements/experience and a lack of restraint wrt the execution of prior ideas on th part of the mapper. it kind of falls flat to me because of that

no aim :(

playing this with hitsounds is so funny bc the song does one thing and the map does something entirely different but then the hitsounds miraculously manage to dodge both of those i actually dunno how that even happens

jorking slider on kpmy's diff had me wheezing when i played it

Am I allowed to say something without everyone getting mad

This isn't executed perfectly but I really think y'all would have dunked on hollow wings back in the day

its just not the same thing bro

no its definitely not, this is definitely uniquely my own, but i think most of these dunks are coming from the same place that the dunks on HW did after reading this comment section

i mean i definitely think you are correct in the fact that maps that do kinda push up on the range of acceptable ideas within Beatmap Construction™ receive the same type of backlash since forever but i dont think you are supppsed to express this even if you are correct

okay well i don't think half the things in this comment section are meant to be expressed either (especially directly to the mapper) so i think it's fair!

like u 200% right again but optics (unfortunately) matters for those on the receiving end of criticism (lol) which is why i think it's better to not express this

saying that [thing that breaks conventions] is unfairly disliked because [other thing that broke conventions at its time] came to be liked is not a good argument because you're skipping the process where a people come to terms with the map naturally. if everything that breaks conventions is taken to be good because what it does could become conventional then there is no proper criticism taking place.

is the map trying to do the geddan

Thats like such a strawman I refuse to believe you seriously believed you were addressing my intent when I wrote it. Anyway I'm so glad we made a website where we made it so people can be even nastier about mapping with social stigma against creators in a artistic hobby. That is absolutely just what a volunteer creation hobby needed omg.

anyways, my take on the map is that its not bad, but the rigidity of it feels contrary to what the map is trying to portray. the circle streams have an industrial sort of feel to them rather than the romantic expressiveness that seems to be the intentions. also I dont like the lack of visual clarity betweeen the 5-6 combo spacing and the 16-1 combo spacing with the streams, both from a visual and playability standpoint.

00:39:988 - 01:04:791 is pretty good, and also the rhythm progression between the 01:12:897 (1,2,3) things and the 01:28:383 (1,2,3,4) things

this map would be largely disliked no matter if downpour decided to engage in conversation or not, optics really has no significance here

i do think people would be more willing to reapproach this map's ideas sometime down the line if not for the comments so i'd say it has relevance in that case
but idk not sure how this site works

worth noting that this is more difficult than anything HW has ever submitted by a comfortable margin

not that much more difficult if we consider the average top player skill at the time vs. genryuu kaiko and top players today vs. this. why would difficulty have anything to do with anything anyway

genuinely abysmal hitsounding by the way it would take considerable effort to find something more incoherent

Why so serious

really dawg 😭

it's a fair guess that anyone "dunking on HW" would do so cuz her work is either too difficult or nonsensical. so i don't really find downpour's gripe to be fair since this map is more difficult and nonsensical than anything HW ever made. the difficulty directly stems from this nonsense as well, there's snapping errors within additive rhythm which is a development i didn't even know was possible.

U got me there

think its all about the "nonsense" part and the difficulty of the "nonsense" is just a byproduct that isn't inherently the problem outside of missnaps. if anything what you're talking about is difficulty in relation to the song which is the unholy beast of song representation. idk I wasn't there for HW though it's my first day out here

actual tears in my eyes listening to the hitsounding on this, magnificent duck wings inspo aswell

ok I never listened to the hitsounds but setting aside the other things that are wrong with them
01:46:773 (7) this feels like it's trying to invent its own chord progression except it doesn't even make any musical sense? like this is ii for no reason when this song is not doing that at all but even then i-ii-V doesn't make sense as a progression either

like 01:03:944 (2) - I can understand getting this wrong (this is a hard progression to get right) but for some reason the second half of chorus was completely fine the first time around and then it just got changed to complete nonsense for no reason???

also, incidentally

It is true that a lot of people who are written off as hacks later are discovered to be "great men of history," van gogh, most famously, but also melville and thoreau and others besides

————but the sentiment of "I am a great genius and you'll be sorry when I'm gone," I've only ever seen shared by hacks

New concept = HW
Except this map doesn't really do anything new it's just overmapped

before y'all go back to feuding with the hitsounds anyone wanna kiss me goodnight

💋💋💋

yeah I agree with app in the fact that this map doesn’t do anything that hasn’t been done before in principle unlike HW so comparing people’s perception here to HW is pretty asinine if you ask me

idk its fine but those hs fucking disgust me 01:43:870 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,1) -

billie jean

is not my lover

she’s just a girl

jilly bean

thats not how the song goes

Let's take it from the top bois

and a onee twoo one two three four

i think this is very distinct from what hw did because this one tries to do multiple different gimmicks with snapping/overlaps/spinners/difficulty progression, so it ends up being a mashup of multiple interesting ideas into something thats nonsensical

a lot of the old hw maps had one idea and everything in the map was in service to that idea, this one tries to do way too much where if it was only focused around building up to the crazy 1/8 streams (for example) it could have been rly interesting imo

idk i remember not liking it immediately like 2 years ago but it was much funnier than i remember so thats fye

Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth

does this have the most 0 rates on all of omdb

19 zeros

but is that the most on the website of anything or no

Nino Gang has a hundred lol

its so over
