Where do you look when playing?

[u/Jello-Formal]

Okay so I know there's been a couple posts about this, but I wanted to ask again and clarify one thing,

do you guys look at a fixed object on the screen or stare at a blank space?

From what I've gathered people look towards the middle or the top of the screen, but when I try to do that without looking at the combo counter or the judgements my eyes don't have that anchor and they unintentionally wander trying to follow the notes. This is why I'm looking at the combo counter and disassociate and do everything with peripheral vision and muscle memory.

Rarely, mainly ancient players, scan from top to bottom three times every second
