For those that watched the first one as well, did you find this one easier, harder, or on par with the original? I feel like I need to soften it up even more.

I think that's just a product of you recruiting retro gamers tbqh. You just have to tailor things to your set of contestants. Also more spooky music, selfishly.

I have a looooooooooot I want to say about this, but don't have the time atm. I'll just say quickly now I disagree that you should avoid "western games". Shovel Knight, Portal, Killer Instinct, Undertale, etc are all western games, and people got those just fine. Might come back to this. ... Copied to Clipboard!

And maybe trim the rounds down a bit to fewer guesses per round. Depends on your target audience. Your participants looked like they had fun, and that's very important too, and for me, personally, I got lucky that a lot of these coincided with games, series, and consoles I had growing up/in my adult life. I would've bombed it completely if Dreamcast or most Genesis showed up. I also regularly struggle on B8's guessing games when they come up beyond a few niche things I've played, but then you get me running an entire FFXIV list since it's a strength of mine. *Shrug* --- [The Artist Formerly Known as Earthshaker.] ...

DireKrow posted... About the same, I'd say. I guess I should stipulate from the AAA space. Those were all fairly niche/indie titles with many memes and a large internet presence. I would've figured of all huge Sony titles, The Last of Us would've been the lay up. --- Do you like humor, gameplay, and daily content?

Ah yes, that great indie title, Killer Instinct. =p The reason people don't know the music from TLOU isn't because people didn't play TLOU. It's because the music isn't as memorable and the tracks don't transcend specifically the people who have played the game. This is, for some reason, a trend with AAA western titles that the devs like to have more backgroundy mood music. Pick a game where that's not the case and people will (probably) know it just fine. --- Only the exceptions can be exceptional. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yeah from my experience running quizzes on reddit and tracking stats for which ones were correctly guessed, 'cinematic orchestral soundtracks' were consistently one of the most poorly performing genres.
Aside from that though, it also depends on the guests you have. For certain groups of people, certain songs are considerably easier or harder. Take the vgm community here for example... the Trails series is very popular here, so something like Sophisticated Fight ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Um5EbReY7rA ) would be considered "easy" and almost everyone you showed it to would probably be able to at least name the series. And yet, I wouldn't be surprised if 5 of the 6 guests you've had on so far hadn't even heard of the game, let alone have any hope of guessing the song. Inversely, there is some songs in your quizzes where all three of your guests knew what it was, but I had never heard the song before =P There ARE groups out there which would know the TLOU song easily, but this group of guests happened to not be it. Also in spite of the all that, I still regularly used that sort of music. I saw my vgm quizzes as a way to celebrate vgm and games in general, and so it was very important to me that they represented a lot of what vgm had to offer. There's people who love these games and this music, and some of the most revered games ever have music in that style, so and I wanted them to be represented as well. In your case, even though your guests didn't know what the TLOU song was, maybe some of your ~180 viewers did, and were super glad to see it there. The Atelier song is another good example here too... I got the impression you were inwardly apologizing for it being there, because you perhaps correctly guessed that the group wouldn't have even heard of the game, let alone had any hope of guessing it... but hey, I knew the series and got it half correct, and I was super happy that someone actually nominated a Gust song <3 The trick is to build an intuition for what songs and parts of songs are most recognizable. The fact you used The Last of Us's main theme was definitely an example of what I'm talking about, though perhaps not quite enough in this case. If you really want at least one of your guests to know every song, then I'd say to tailor your picks for the background of your guests, though I don't know if you know who you'll have on until right before the game, so I imagine that might make things difficult. Ultimately though it's your show and you should run it how you want and make the selections you want to make. I think you'd lose something if you excluded an entire genre of music and game, but... yeah. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Bonus Round 1 - Round 3 - those were mostly pretty popular themes from their respective games, which was probably helpful when you're asking for just the level Round 4 - great round using some classically bad voice acting, that one was fun Round 5 - Bonus Round 2 - I will say doing it this way was better than the way you did it in the first video. --- http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/080/145/638.png ...

I would not have known the track, but I found its inclusion incredibly refreshing. On the flipside, I play exclusively not-AAA games, so I'm only going to know music that has some kind of penetration. I almost wrote that before, but decided to keep my post short. Also, hearing yet another Mega Man spin-off game does nothing for me. --- Only the exceptions can be exceptional. ... Copied to Clipboard!

It's true, though I think I value the guests having a good time over the audience recognizing music, since typically if the guests know it, a good chunk of the audience would. And if the guests aren't involved and having a good time, that would obviously affect the quality of the show as a whole. --- Do you like humor, gameplay, and daily content?
