*Guitar is hard...*

when he strummed the tap notes, that hurts me

I'm so glad he found and played the termina chart

“I’m an actual wetter” Nik: 2021

Nik.... there's a legit practice/no fail mode exactly like real guitar hero

Guitar Hero, the freaking game that inspired more than one of us to pick up the real guitar.

"Im using the pick again, it has to be the pick." *fails*

Prog metal guitarist vs plastic guitar

This was the one crossover I wasn't expecting, but I'm glad it happened

"It's has to be the pick" / Inmediately fails.

Rock band 1-2 got me into playing real instruments when I was like 7-8. This is a throwback

Okay, so a few tips.. There’s solid color notes that need to be strummed like a normal guitar. This is a given and are 9 times out of 10 perfectly matched with strumming sections in real songs, 1 to 1. The ones with white on the top are hammer one and pull offs.. you don’t have to strum them if you hit the first in that sequence, but need to strum if you lose sequence. Some people bring their strumming hand up when I’m combo and tap different notes in the sequence with both hands to make it easier, but some man-handle the sections like a beast The slightly transparent notes are tap notes and work like hammer one and pull offs, but you just need to tap, no strumming involved. These are mainly the harshest parts, as is the intro of ttfaf. For a reference, I wouldn’t strum them if I were you and use both hands to tap the notes in sequence. Specifically ttfaf, the green notes can be anchored and the rest of it can be tapped into hammer one and pull offs, making the overall composition of that combo a little easier to manage. I’d suggest playing songs on clone hero that you know in real life because the strumming patterns might be somewhat similar, and even may help with finger positioning. The buttons aren’t accurate however, but in most audibly higher note sequences, they’ll be further down the neck like a real guitar, and vice versa with the lower notes. This guide can help you understand how solos and riffs are charted and help with hitting them. For strumming, it’s easier to grip it with your thumb and pointer finger as if you were holding a pick, and to strum up and down. Most of the songs are strumming-ly correct (if that’s a real phrase 🤷‍♂️) to the song being played, so if you know the rhythms, all that’s left is the buttons. For instance, if you played bleed, the strumming will be one for one how the speed of strumming is for the real song, all that’s left is pushing the right button at the right time. And a final tip I have is to turn on no fail and go into practice on sections you’re not familiar with.. this helps a lot with your overall experience with the game and finding out how things work, and what techniques to use when playing. Just like practicing in real life, you can slow it down or speed it up, and go over section by section songs you’re unfamiliar with. This is a big helper in the game and helps add to the feelings of playing a real guitar (besides it being plastic 🥴) You might not see this at all but if you do I’m hoping you take these into consideration and maybe feel a little better hitting harder sections and maybe even get through through the fire and flames! Love your content and I’m glad to see you step outta your comfort zone and I hope you do well! Keep up the good work

Nik: *do a cover of Blood and Water Also Nik: *chilling and playing video game

“You just wiggle it bro!” Every guy after taking a piss.

Thank you for playing my Never Gonna Give You Up chart!

Embrace the pick. BECOME the pick. It will guide you.

"I'm not a bassist. 😒" _angry Davie504 noises_

The intro is all effects and mumbo jumbo.. Lol😂😂

Can we please get a reaction to some of the pro Clone hero players like Acai or FrostedGH? That would be hilarious

2:17 You my friend have encountered a CH player's worst enemy, the overstrum...

This was great! I'd love to see more Clone Hero on this channel

I think the 2 benefits of GH/CH are practing rhythms like alternate picked triplets and finger/hand strength plus it’s one of the best ways to enjoy & find new music

From what I understand a lot of the skill to this is like learning how to shred, it’s a trick that you figure out and slowly speed up and requires getting use to certain patterns just different.

Note speed and calibration are usually the first things that need adjusting xD

Picking the strum bar with your finger had me dying

bro, you dont need to strum the hammer ons/pull offs and the taps. great video though. you should definitely revisit this.

the fact that he strums the controller like a real guitar is gold.

On some guitars if you strum too hard and let go without bringing it to the middle again or with a pick it might have the effect of overstrumming and strum twice instead of once

The Defiant is such a tune though! I'd love to see you and Matt collab!

"The intro is not this hard in IRL. it's all effects and mumbo Jumbo." Good to know the creator is calling B.S. on scaled GH difficulty

What do you call a guitar riff with social anxiety? a nervous breakdown

I came here after your Diary of Jane video, and this made me subscribe. You are entertaining to watch and bro. 372 likes no dislikes. Well deserved. You just need more views and subs.

This makes me feel so much better after starting to play this game myself

at this point I think Andy actually writes the guitar parts for Termina

Bro i felt your pain with six that song was ridiculous with the strumming for the first quarter

Make this a series untill you beat through the fire and flames! We need this in our lives!

Absolute banger video again :D

Recently just started playing and streaming this game. I love it so much.

Of course Nik knew the memes by heart.

It makes me feel a little better knowing that I actually played completely through through the fire and the flames and completed all the songs on expert back when GH was cool

you gotta change the video delay either that or the audio delay to make hitting the buttons actually hit in real time, bc there is a delay from when you hit the note to when it shows up on screen

I’ve been waiting for this day

Nik from my experience with Clone Hero you'll need to do some tweaking of the Audio and Video lag for your setup, takes a while and a lot of trial and error to get it right but you won't look back once you've done it, best of luck ^^

Whyyy did I miss this in my subscribers uploads, love it

Bro I might have to look into this. Being able to play "Holy Roller" guitar hero style is the closest I'm gonna get because I stopped learning new songs like a year ago.

Finally... What I've been waiting for...

Awesome 😎 video I grew up with guitar hero and Rock band games

You struggle with this like I do playing guitar for real, I feel better about myself now.

Dude this is freaking funny😂😂 I wish I could play guitar on guitar hero or clone hero again. He needs to put on no fail mode

MORE PLEASE

Ha, ha! Classic "Family Jewels" episode when Nick totally beat Tommy Thayer playing a KISS song on Guitar Hero. 😄

The second I saw him lifting up his finger on the green during Through the Fire and the Flames, I knew he was never getting past even half that intro.

I love clone hero, when he started accidentally rake strumming with the pick it was hilarious

idk why the black and gray tones in this video is so satisfying lol

*fails to playTTFAF* Meanwhile JasonParadise plays the intro backwards in Meme Charts xD

Clone Hero is one of my favorite games to play. So much fun!!!

This was awesome

Amo su reacción cuando descubre que puede tocar Termina en el juego

I just picked up a kit from a dude in Scarborough.... going to get this working on Clone Hero... this shit is WAY more expensive than these damn little plastic instruments used to be... god daaaamn.

"This is gonna be the first time a Rick Roll has ever helped somebody." 🤣🤣🤣 For your sneeze Nik...God bless you!!! 🤧 Enjoyed the video!!

You don’t have to strum the highlighted notes btw. You can hammer on/pull off those.

I spat my coffee out when you went "What game is this.. Seinfeld?" God dammit Nik

now through the fire and flames on bass

This video was so good. Much wow.

When he strummed the double note and instantly failed 😂🤣☠️ fucking fell out 😂🤣☠️

When i see the description nik : the tuning is plastic me : wait what ?

Ah, the classic "Hey I'm pretty good at expert, let's try through the fire and flames" blunder

Best crossover ever!!

Zero dislikes = zero deaths. You win this one so far, sir.

nik playing at expert difficulty minutes after downloading the game reminds me of myself playing doom at nightmare difficulty after never having been good at any shooter game

You can anchor on lower notes just like a real guitar. You can anchor on green when it is G B G R G B G R G for example

if you want to actually enjoy this game i would recommend turning up the note speed. it spaces everything out so they scroll faster but there's less onscreen at once. kinda helps you make sense of all the shit scrolling towards you (Press select while in the menus to bring up the setting)

I could literally watch you play clone hero and rock smith for hours lmao

Yes nic, definitely wanna see some more guitar hero content, screw learning real guitar if you can learn a plastic one. Your missions for the end of the year should be to defeat through the fire and the flames

I’m pretty sure if you get the drum set thing you can play drums on clone hero, which would be a really funny video from you

3:48 This Is Extreme Talent

He had me at the Wii Remote slot

Yo! Love the work! I'm not sure if you've ever heard of a band called Brymir - if you haven't you 100% have to take a look at songs like Wings of Fire, Lament of the Ravenous, and Hails from the Edge!

Use a hair tie for the ttfaf intro over the green button, easy mode.

Great video made me smile plenty 😂

So glad you found clone hero lmao, banger game. Check out the wild shit people like acai and randyladyman can do!

When will we get a trivium tabs video?

Bro how long till he realises that the intro to the fire and the flames doesn’t need strumming

Nik FCs the whole Djent Hero Collection on Expert when?

"I'm telling the brain to go to the colours and the colours dislike it" I feel this.

guitar hero was my childhood great video nik

there's a technique in the fire and the flames you don't have to strum just hold on the green button and just play all the other notes works like real taps on a guitar

Maybe a bit too much edditing/cutting forward, but very enjoyable video to watch. Keep up the good work. Almost at 500k subs?!

He did it

I'm looking to get into Clone Hero. Is there a particular controller I need that I can use with Mac?

this made me laugh harder as I thought it would be :D

I played GH games, when I started real guitar, mostly I could tap and alternate pick and fool people. Wasn't til I learned chords, keys, etc

he gone through the Fire, and burned by the Flames

Tuning: Plastic Epic LOLZ

I'm just happy I'm not the only after the burial fan...

Go put in some training with Jason Paradise!

I was a avid player of GH series in ps2 but only used my controller and I remembered the time me and my bandmate tried to use the guitar controls in the arcade for the first time and damn it was too embarrassing lol.

Nick don't do this to yourself. You're too pure for this community

Gawd...this is gold.😅
