for my whole Simfile Artist Career i basically was always super insecure because of input i might/did get from, say, cetaka (who was sort of my original Stepmania Idol) and input i might/did get from, say kil (who is like the radiohead of Stepmania or something). eventually my stepping style veered into something between chaotic-hard and aspiringly-artistic (worst offender: donuts town-map) and looking back 80% of my files feel like complete messes because i was trying to step two ways at once, for two different kinds of players.

i've only just recently started stepping again, and i'm tryna take a cleaner, more '****whattheysay' approach like GD/DGK. we'll see how that goes :3

moral is, stepping for an intended audience is a good idea (ie. scoring vs. casual/speed vs. accuracy players). stepping specifically to appease other simfile artists, though, doesn't seem to work out that well :\
