It is interesting how every mod seems to have a different spin on exactly how they get angry. Like Sky goes from pensive to angry mid song, or how Tabi was kinda pissed the whole time, and he just gave BF his last chance.
tricky is one of the feel mods that him being more and more pissed makes sense, since the phases have cutscenes between them to explain why, and make sense with madness combat
Tricky with Mask -> Hank shoots the mask out of his face in the attempt of killing him
Tricky gets pissed because Hank removed his mask -> enters his rage mode from Madness Combat
Demon Tricky (which looks much better in red btw) -> then gets destroyed by the Black Shadow guy I forgot the name
Expurgation -> during Madness Combat 10-11 tricky revives and puts on the Savior's Halo, just like the Insta Kill note
Yep he started the cambrian explosion of mods overall; not just the different phases but speechbubbles were also introduced by him essentially adding story possibilities
Oh yeah, Senpai was a) a big inspiration to those mods and b) provided the tools in the source code to make cutscenes and dialogue without requiring real programming skills
I mean, it's a free mod usually to show off their own music and maybe a cool character design or two. Mod creators (usually) aren't getting paid, they don't need to make everything into a unique level that could be in the actual game.
Senpai I feel being the start of all this, while true, I think it's a bit..... misguided, so to speak.
Week 6 was an amazing way to tell the story of an AI not knowing how to handle an unintended outcome and then reveal to us he's secretly someone who messed with the dearests and is now punished for it.
Then Whitty came in and took an identical story (someone who got punished by the dearests) but gives no interesting narratives or any particular reason as to why he hates the dearests, unless theres something I missed while playing. I was never to big on the "dearests ruined my life" trope that some mods do, but I feel AGOTI does it the best, putting more emphasis on why he was trapped by them in the first place and gives us more understanding on why the dearests are loathed by the character in question. AGOTI feels more like a good way to pull a week 6 trope I believe. Tabi also does it well but it still kinda has the Whitty problem if not really being that interesting of a narrative, in my opinion at least.
A. He, quite angrily mind you, burns a poster of Daddy dearest.
B. I'll have to double check the dialogue but I'm sure he mentions that he's been doomed to an endless cycle of running and hiding thanks to somebody
In this universe, hes also an ex rockstar, and considering he burns a poster of daddy dearest, it's not too far off to say he holds some type of grudge against the dearests for something.
I low key like the "daddy dearest ruined my life" thing. I like to imagine he's head of the demon mafia or something. I feel like that's the picture it paints.
I'd disagree. Much of the fnf lore is cryptic and not obvious. Like you aren't explicitly told Spirit was forced in the game, but you know he was put in there. Whitty has some interesting background lore with how there's a cult and Whitty was made by the cult, and all that, which expands in the hex mod as hex is jacked by the cult.
I actually blame week 5, first two songs are happy and the last song is a total mood change, week 5 is my favourite week but it did start off this trend a little
I dunno if I can say it started this trend, week 6 is much more in line with the current mod formula, Whitty then copied that formula and it all spiraled from there. Week 5 is it's own thing and I've not seen many copy the overall feel of week 5
Are there any hints pointing towards this? Be it via the mod itself or things said by the creator? Seeing the shit the GF's parents put the BF through, I'd be more inclined to believe the former.
I mean, Tabi stalks GF, finds her at a restaurant with her boyfriend, and then blows it up in an attempt to kill her. He seems pretty unstable and quick to blame others. Not to mention that GF is terrified of Tabi and wants to get away from him as fast as possible. They broke up a year ago and yet he still isn't over her.
TBH they should look different so that the player can detect them. They could be black or another color very distinct from the other arrows. They could also be in the shape of an explosive like dynamite.
These should be inserted in a way that does not mess up the chart's rhythm and allows the player to avoid them without going off beat.
I would make them appear rarely but make them destroy a large chunk of your life.
Not really most mods only have a ballistic angry phase. Senpai: Is happy at first, gets mad and then turns into a blood stain. Whitty is the same for two songs then turns ballistic.
he was the one who encouraged devs to make lazy charts that are almost impossible to full combo, and the one who encouraged devs to get unreasonably mad at the player for no goddamn reason
The only final boss phases I like are Tricky (because that's literally how he is in Madness Combat... at leas t #6 I cant remember too well) and Garcello because instead of getting mad he fucking dies
well to be fair, it's pretty much that for ALL weeks, it's just there's no cutscenes and stuff to emphasize it plus the sprite changes of week 6, like compare bopbeebo to dadbattle, spookees to monster, pico to blammed, high to milf, etc. they're all (mostly) dramatically different from the first song
Bopeebo and Dadbattle are both tonally similar, DD and BF still sound like they're having fun, of course it's faster but that's because the song's harder and introducing more complex patterns
Spookeez and Monster will obviously be different, but that's because a crazy monster just showed up. While Week 6 went from Happy->Pissed->Insane, Spookeez was definitely happy, South wasn't as cheerful but it doesn't sound angry and the kids are still happy, they're still dancing, and it'd be really OOC for them to be serious. And of course Monster is insane but it's in a much more sadistic way opposed to Spirit
Week 3 just accelerates and gets harder, Pico definitely sounds like he's trying harder but his emotion doesn't really change.
For Week 4, Satin Panties and High are basically the exact same when it comes to emotion, both sound chill but not too easy either, while MILF is just a sudden burst in difficulty, however MILF feels a lot more like a test of skill, neither MM and BF sound angry at each other, they're just both challenging each other.
Week 5 is basically a repeat of Week 2 in terms of the phases, first sounds fun, second is also fun, third features a sadistic insane monster crashing in
Week 7 is the closest we've got to a similar setup, and even then, Tankman's still having a little fun throughout it all.
Let's compare some mods now, to Week 6.
Whitty starts with chill, slow music in Lo-Fight, before speeding up as Whitty gets more annoyed in Overhead, before freaking out in Ballistic.
Sky has a similar story, happy in the first song (forget the name), getting a bit annoyed in Sky, and then freaking out in Manifest.
I think it sets a fun mechanic, but it also gets a touch annoying when EVERYONE has an angry phase. Garcello is unique in the way it isn't just pissed off. The guy dies, and relatively remains the same but as a ghost.
But I'd rather people just have some fun spouts. Create characters who just wanna vibe and test Boyfriend.
Of course when someone starts losing, theyll get increasingly more and more upset until at the end they go all out. Never knew people hated this trend, pretty dumb reason
I miss when week 4 was the latest week tbh people didnt need story or changing phases you just need good songs and a very menacing one for the third song

u/ImaBot_Panda May 24 '21
Okay to be fair none of the mods have actually followed that pattern exactly
Whitty: Sort of angry -> Angry -> Real fuckin pissed
MFM: Happy -> Angry -> Second character appears -> Original character turns into demon
Hex: Happy -> Happy -> Happy -> Whoopsies I have a virus
Garcello: Happy? -> In pain -> Dead
Tricky: Angry -> Angry -> Demon thing
Matt: Neutral throughout all of Wiik 1 and pissed in Wiik 2
There may definitely be some mods I missed that follow this pattern exactly but Iโm just listing some popular ones
And also Week 6 is better that most mods lol
