This game is immensely relaxing if you really like seeing dirt come off surfaces. However, it can get quite annoying in later levels where you just cannot find the last specks of dust in a massive area. I know there are ways to spot out the bits that are still dirty, but even with those you sometimes are just wiping over the same surface over and over and it just isn't getting clean, and then the game kinda ends up counter intuitive as its not as relaxing as it is stressful.

The good moments outweigh that, though it is notable to mention.

I'll actually start with the objective qualities, mostly its downsides. For starters, this game is more or less completely obsolete. Compared to literally any other entry in the series, 2nd and Extend don't stand a shot. The songs are also old and if you're invested in Hatsune Miku or vocaloid in general, you probably won't really hear any newer favourites. The mechanics just aren't up to snuff and it'll be more tedious than it is pleasant. This is not a game I really recommend to anyone for starting out, or period.

However.

I'm speaking purely from personal bias. This was my first project diva game. Hell, it was the first rhythm game that I took seriously. I was utterly entranced by it, the game's art style fills me with an incredible extent of nostalgia. It's got a very crunchy look, and the music accompanying it fills me with nostalgia, for something I didn't experience as a kid. I wasn't a vocaloid kid, but this game just made me feel so cozy and warm playing it. This game holds an incredibly special place in my heart for introducing me to Project Diva, Hatsune Miku, and rhythm games period.

This game be so full o' potential 'n I love t' see that it's bein' updated frequently. It gets a lot o' new content, a lot o' quality o' life changes so this review will prolly be updated o'er time, but the big draw t' this game be holy shit, sailin' 'n dickin' around wit' hearties be so fun. Downside: once ye 'ave the cosmetics ye wants ye do nah needs t' do anythin'. It's jus' an open sandbox o' stuff that can get repetitive. If ye wants t' 'ave the badass pirate loadout wit' all the glowy coats 'n guns then ye'll get much more mileage out o' this game than I did, but I like me pirate t' look like a dirty clown so I got the cosmetics I wants mighty early on 'n now I don't mighty feel compelled t' keep on goin'. I feel that no matter wha' thar's a pretty hard stoppin' point, or at least a point where ye're destined t' get bored. Howe'er, ye'll still like enough get a lot o' mileage out o' it. Play wit' scallywags, do the main quests, 'n ye'll 'ave at least a decent time.

This game is so incredibly full of content with mods in mind, there is so much variety, so much customization, so many maps, guns, vehicles, playermodels, effects, tools, toys, whatever you want. And with friends?? This game is utterly insane. I do not care who you are, get this game. It's a 10 dollar must have for anyone with a PC.

Why isn't is a 5 star? Nothing that's really the game's fault, but managing mods is just so so so so aggravating. Sometimes mods just don't work, it's hard at times to identify what's causing problems, and with friends it becomes hell if you guys have a difference in mods. It's a tedious for sure, but even then I can't say it's enough to completely kill my enjoyment of this game, but it is enough to discourage me from picking it up from time to time.
