OH BOY FULL REVIEW!

Xoon Finale Pack Review
___________________

Aka Yori Akai Yume:
Really boring in most parts. Inconsistent in layering imo. Probably good for new players thanks to simple patterns almost throughout (excluding beginning and ending). 4/10

BRAINSTORM:
Fun file, liked the song and patterns seemed good. Some of the very beginning patterns were tricky (hold section before hardstyle begins omfg). 9/10

Chaoz Lapan:
Ehh, wasn't fun in my opinion. Waaaaaay better than z3ratful's, but still didn't like it very much. Mines though. 8) 7/10

CHIP'N RIDDIM:
Fun file, but gets right hand oriented near the end. Turned out better than my file would have. 8/10

Concertino:
Trills in the beginning didn't seem accurate. Liked the FFRCP2 version better. 6/10

Crystalize Silver:
Whoah this was fun! Liked it a lot, reminded me of a Dew file, which I'm quite fond of haha. Thought the piano could have been focused more when it was goin' on with the melody in the beginning/middle. PR wasn't spot on, but that's forgivable. 9.5/10

Echoes:
Song was mehh, but file was pretty cool. Super technical, holy ****. Nice job. 7.5/10

Fantazindy:
Colored-note dump. Layering was kinda inconsistent. Ehh. 5/10

Foughten Field:
Sweet song. Need more meaty files like this in the SM community. Missed some 32nds in the beginning and a few jacks throughout, but overall fun and tricky file. 8/10

Go Beyond:
Boss song. Sure those were 64ths for those rolls? And lmao that hold section. Cool file nontheless. boss/10

igorsson's StepMania training program:
Is that gay porn we're listening to with a piano overlay? Holy **** it's disturbing as **** to listen to. No joke though, I'd seriously practice to this. Was draining and is definitely going to be used for scoring or training. Tried to remember the file patterns as I played, didn't know some of them.

Into The Oblivion:
I'm honestly really jealous at how fast you've improved. You went from horrible patterned-Dragonforce files to very well stepped files of variety in just a few months. Kudos, fiel was very fun. Jump jacks were kinda gay in some sections though, especially the one part at the beginning. 8.5/10

KeYboArDcrAsHer maXimUM:
Angry german kid lmao. Fun file nontheless. Minifreezes made it kinda cool. 7/10

Kommisar plays Hej Kanin:
Gonna miss ya bud <333
Hehe I hit the mine he hit. kommi/10

Lemonade:
Fun MA file. Didn't see anything wrong with it. MA/10

Marque El Dos:
Artist name sounds familiar, what other stuff has he done? File seemed inconsistent with layering and PR in some spots, jacks got kind of annoying after a while. Still kinda fun. 6/10

Organ Grinder:
Boss song, oh boy.
Standard-jacks were tricky in some spots, but god I love Roarpatterns. Heavy is probably gonna be killer. >___> 8/10
Heavy-what the **** was that jumpjack section holy ****. roar/10

Poinsettia:
Ughhh I hate 4/4 time songs that are stepped in 6/8 like this. OK file I guess, don't like it at all though. 3/10

RED ZONE:
Good, fun file. 7/10

Rolling on the Duck:
Boring, not enough going on to have any fun value. Easy, streams were kind of retarded and wasn't very PR. 4/10

Secret Base Act 2:
Jacks made it challenging but fun, file seemed good in technicality. Bad place to stop stepping though, halfway through the next measure? 9/10

Summer Jam:
Uhhh... Really bad file. VERY inconsistent layering, probably should have layered the bass drum whole way through, maybe done something with the vocals? You even missed some rhythms! Also very repetitive, you used the same patterns over and over. Ughh horrible file. 1/10

Trap Phantasm:
Fun file, some of the colored notes seemed slightly offsync, but its no big deal I guess. Maybe a little overlayered/ossa syndrome? 6.5/10

Xoon Finale:
Dump. Ehh imo not worthy to be called the "Xoon Finale," but whatever floats your boat. 5/10

All in all, pretty fun pack. Only a few challenging files, the rest are pretty much MA files. Good addition to any SM collection though. Good job to all stepartists who got files into any of the packs, whether it be Xoon 1, 2, 3, or the Finale. We're gonna miss ya Kommi. <3

Overall pack: 7/10

[Gundam-Dude]

You gave my file a 9.5 and it didn't make your top 5?

[kommisar[os]]

an ossa file inconsistent? i think you betta rephrase that son. he defined layering as the godfather of technical files.

Hahahaha. The color notes I can agree, but this file is everything but inconsistent.

Also, how can it be a dump? It's not even that hard.

Kommisar is right :P

[WTFBrandon]

I found nothing wrong with the file. :S

[moches]

also Jake Kaufman is Virt

[Patashu]

it's a dump in the sense that it's very awkward, weird and unusual to play. I know you stepped the song consistently but if, say, someone played it with the sound off it would feel very erratic.

[N.T.M.]

also i found straight snare-jump js was kinda weak and uninteresting compared to the rest of the file even though it was patterned pretty well (these parts i was just waiting for them to end so i could do more color solos and fills).

it's still a good file, haven't enjoyed anything else in the pack as much

Ah, yes. I agree. And thanks dude. I really appreciate it.

lol Yeah, I was stuck on DF for a long time =P. A couple of the files are decent though. They still lack PR and are understepped.

[Dj_Ossa]

The way you're going NTM, you'll be the next GLoVE.

[moches]

Way to go N.T.M. The first couple of times I saw you post, I admit, I was a little skeptical if you would ever get better (being that your simfiles were Dragonforce and all ) but you're proved me and everybody wrong with your rapid improvement. Awesome job. Consider me a fan--and jealous

I understand what you're saying but, like you know, Fantazindy is a pretty layered song, erratic at times, even.

Plus, why the **** would you play a music game with your volume off xD

[who_cares973]

some people dont have working sound drivers ;_;

[operationstrawbarry]

I thought Ossa quit LOL.

Pat: I may have to. But my keyborad that I brought compared to the one that originally use sux so bad. i dont mind waiting until I get back to Taiwan to play this pack.

I heard that to some people, you play better with the sound off. To some people, the sound is a distraction. Sounds stupid considering we play this game because of the music.

Im betting that Igorsan's file is basically a hentai pic with arrows? Haven't seen that for a while.

Maybe you want to raise money for your deaf best friend. Or because you hate Dream Theater.
