who here plays guitar?

[PancakeBrah]

When you're doing the expert difficult songs it's pretty stupid. But learning actual guitar is so infinitely more difficult it doesn't really compare. The biggest limitation when it comes to Guitar Hero mastery is finger dexterity, mostly tremolos turned into strummed alternating notes, etc. With enough time committed, Guitar Hero/Rock Band can be muscled through, although it's still pretty skillful. Whereas learning actual guitar not only includes finger dexterity but actual skill, an ear for tones, subtle intri***ies, timing, ghost notes, so many things. It's embarassing to say, but if I added the total run time I played guitar hero together it'd be in the 2-3 months straight range. If I committed myself to actual guitar in such a way I'd be a novice at best.

This is the gayest post I've ever made. I have no regrets.

Guitar hero expert gave me arm convulsions and a claw hand

I started lifting after my Guitar Hero/SadCake phase. My left forearm is forever more defined/striated than my right simply due to that game.

They're rebooting Rock Band sometime this year. I'm going to buy it :(.

Nice, most people I know that play guitar cut their teeth on Squires. I've had quite a few Strats over the years, I've had models from the 1970's, 80's and 90's. I sold my favorite years ago, it was a really dope old mexican strat. Right now I mainly use my Starcaster. It's basically just the strat but with a star point shaped head on it. It has alot of sentimental value to me so I will always keep it.

People don't sink time into guitar like they do video games

You don't get feedback from a GH controller, there's no feel to it, you're just clicking arbitrary buttons in an arbitrary pattern to the tune to a song, crank it up to expert and you're essentially memorizing the entire song in response to sound &visuals, vs feel and sound

It's like memorizing the a bunch of countries constitutions vs just writing one off the top of your head


You eventually get good at bullshitting, you can't bullshit lightning fast memorization with flash chords nigga
