A rhythm game designed by a sadist on meth (or salvia if doubles is your thing). Even at its lowest points (cough CB and Rootage cough), it is still probably better than most other VSRGs or rhythm games in general I've played. No other rhythm game has become (or probably will become) as ludically dynamic or as aesthetically and musically varied as IIDX. Genuinely becomes a transcendental experience once you're used to the throat punching. Only genuine criticism I have is how absolutely wide (and somewhat overcharted) 12s can be. Look at this and this and tell me these are totally the same difficulty. Just decimalize these fuckers already, Konmai. Even then, shit just fucks hard and will make your hands cum if you eventually get to 12s.
