As a guy who started on Rocksmith, the best way to learn songs after you get comfortable with the guitar is to do 100 percent difficulty, then start the riff you want to learn at 50 percent speed, then keep cranking it up.

@@hunterhollingsworth9058 not wanting to play in front of people is pretty normal, especially for someone with only 200 hours. Rocksmith is very bad at training timing though. When I started to transition from Rocksmith to playing in my school band it took a lot of work playing with a metronome to get my timing. Rocksmith unintentionally teaches new players to use visual ques instead of listening to the rhythm section to stay on beat. If you wanna be more confident playing in front of people id try to find some cheap lessons near you and let a professional hear you play since they're not really gonna care how you sound, they'll just try to help you sound BETTER.

@AnthemUnanthemed 5 ай бұрын

ya but if u are only using it to learn songs, tab reading is about the same difficulty, so it only really works for a specific kind of beginner that only wants to learn to play a few songs they like, in a more visually stimulating way than tabs (theres nothing wrong with this btw), not someone who is looking to learn an instrument, but I feel rocksmith tries to make itself out to be more like a learning platform and charges "accordingly" when it just fundamentally isnt, not only that but with the sub model and the way songs and licenses go, songs will come and go from the platform depending on licensing disputes, and ubisoft is already known for killing all servers related to their games, including offline games, effectively preventing people from even re-downloading a game they bought legally, that the company just no longer wants to pay for. TLDR: Imo, ubisoft has shown themselves to be untrustworthy in their industry, which is making games, not making music education aids, and theres better much more free ways of learning, which are honestly just as easy if only a little less colorful @@cuthbertallgood7781

@@cuthbertallgood7781 Guitar Hero was the game with bad covers. Rocksmith always used masters for official releases. The problem with RS+ licensing is that they have a ton of music available but not all of those songs are charted. Community members (aka the players) can create their own charts but there's no incentive, and no guarantee that the songs will remain available. Chainbrain had a couple good update videos on the state of RS+ that I recommend checking out.

I've been using Rocksmith for a hot minute it's a fun game but I would definitely recommend letting it have the adaptive setting instead of setting it to a difficulty because it will adjust to how often you're missing notes and how often you predict correctly

@brtd90 5 ай бұрын

Having played Rocksmith for years, I'd recommend the opposite. Id set it to always be 100% difficulty and then slow things down in riff repeater to learn it. Trying to play along to only part of the track was very disorienting for me. And you potentially have to relearn fingerings as more notes get added which is counterproductive.

I’ve got nearly 1000 hours in Rocksmith 2014 and while there is a slight learning curve to associating strings with different colors it’s been a fantastic way to learn my favorite songs. The game will automatically change your guitar’s tone to match the song throughout, so you can just focus on playing the guitar and if you hit the right notes on time you sound just like the recording. Sometimes I’ll use a different pickup on my guitar just to standout a little more from the recording if I’m feeling it. Riff repeater is one of my favorite features as you can slow the song down and gradually speed up as your accuracy increases, which makes learning complicated solos or getting your timing just right on chord transitions much easier. R14 had video lessons and exercises that are made into pixelated arcade games but honestly haven’t played them much. This game doesn’t replace a real guitar instructor but it’s the perfect addition for helping you practice and improve. I love Rocksmith 2014, because you bought the game and each song or pack of songs once AND get the REAL song that was yours to play. Unfortunately R14 is being discontinued and replaced with Rocksmith+ which has a subscription model 🙄. I mean they kept a lot of the great features from the 2014 version, but you don’t get the REAL song recording in many cases. They’re mostly cover versions of the songs which are pretty good but it’s not the same, and there’s my honest unsponsored review.

I started guitar through Rocksmith 2014. I remember slaving over the riffs in the lessons for like 15 minutes just trying to learn about 10 seconds of music. I no longer use it much at all as the song library is limiting and it's much easier to actually practice the stuff you play vs sightreading everything. That being said, If you play an hour of Rocksmith everyday for the full 60 days, I'd be surprised if you couldn't learn 3 songs in that time

I recommend looking into how to get RockSmith 2014 even though there isn't on steam anymore. So many features are missing from Rocksmith 2014, and the song library is volatile. I'd rather tell someone to pirate a now abandoned game then pay a subscription for least then the previous product. Or take my words with a gain of salt and buy for a few months instead of the year plan. I only say this because there are reports of Ubisoft charging even when people canceled their 1 year plan after deciding to drop it.

They just hicked their subscription price, and they don't even have that many metal bands on there. not worth. I'd sooner play Rocksmith 2014 and download custom songs than this garbage.
