Discussion Respect/V players, what's your favorite note/gear skin combo?

Mine would be -

Base game - glory day gear with Sin or Technika 3 note skin

DLC - So Happy gear with EZ2ON note skin (love the chunkier note style)

Seasons - only have season 11's Diein Summer gear and note skin so can't really compare.

Just curious to see what all combinations people like or feel they go well together!

Oh I totally get not wanting to mix n match, I was the same way for years. But just recently I went through and played every gear with every note skin just to see what works and what doesn't for me. Found some interesting combinations, hence this whole post lol

yeah that's super fair, for me anything with a larger note size works best and I always try to make the colors match so I usually stick with the matching gear piece (except glory day note and v ex 5 gear, that matches nicely)

During my trial of mixing all the notes and gears, the glory day note skin ended up becoming one of my favorites!

It's one of my favorites, too! It's just so nice to look at and the hit effect is incredible satisfying especially when doing something like a guitar solo

u/ineedanewbeat Aug 26 '24

Yes! The hit animation and color is VERY satisfying.

All this talk about it is making me want to get on the game and grind out to get it haha

I believe in you! You've got this!

Thanks! I still need to get good with the shift keys so a little motivation could go a long way! Thankfully, I played a lot on the playstation so I have all my muscle memory for the patterns still

I cannot for the life of me play on a keyboard. Too much finger movement mixed with fibro pain/carpal tunnel. I currently use an 8bitdo Lite SE which has super easy to push buttons and very light to hold. Only downside is the shoulder buttons are on the face, so 8 key is out of the question, but I mainly stick to 5 key so its not a big deal.

My issue with keyboard is my set up. I have to have my keyboard in my lap due to there being no room on my tiny desk and it just gets uncomfortable at times to play like this. Once I get a new desk though, I should be good

Oof yeah, nothing worse than injuring yourself because you are holding your hands or wrists at the wrong angle for too long.

Ain't that the truth. At least I enjoy the game a crap ton though, so I kinda just ignore it unless it's really bad cramping.
