Screw these stupid exercise minigames...

[Baklavah]

Honestly, the button prompts disappearing is the dumbest design decision, and it makes the pull-ups nigh impossible. I'll wait for a mod to keep it toggled on. Waste of my friggin energy and it's RAGE inducing as it is now. Fk this noise.

It is just a rythm game. Quite easy if you get it.

The prompt shouldn't disappear. That is a dumb friggin design decision. I don't care if it's a rhythm game. Name a rhythm game where the button prompts disappear. Please. I'll wait.

Rock Band 4.

There is a hardcore mode in which the buttons fade away and eventually almost disappear completely.

It took me a while to get this challenge too, but you'll get it eventually. Since then every single time I have tried it I haven't failed it once.

yeah i'm sorry Baklavah, i was just having a laugh but realized that I was being a jerk earlier. I really does take practice and getting into the rhythm of the prompts disappearing. you have to trust your instincts more rather than just pressing the buttons. its sorta like really working out. If i focus on the weights, I start to second guess my ability but if you just zen out with it, you can work it out.

i did it my first or second try with all of them.

you just keep pressing the buttons in the same order over and over again, and very slightly increase the speed.

my guy, you are overthinking it, i promise each match the buttons dont change or anything.

just take the buttons you press at the beginning of the match, and keep doing that over and over again.

100% this^^^

Also op, here is the aforementioned Rock Band 4 mode I was talking about.
I recommend a watch, because it will make the FF7R minigame seem like a piece of piss afterwards XD

With a gamepad it's extremely simple since the prompts disappear but the controller still vibrates when you should press it. Not that you need it anyway once it speeds up you can pretty much mash the buttons in clockwise order as fast as possible.

Sultan of Squats first try. Not that hard imo. The game tells you how to do it too. Look at the animation of the character. Gives you all the visual queues you need.

[Xelane]

I don't recall having much difficulty with the squats and pullups minigames. At most, I had to retry the final(?) round with Jules like 4 times. Is there another level to the minigame I wasn't aware of?

[Svlyn]

pretend your playing an instrument.

[Beelzebubbs]

You literally just need a little rythem and focus. I did squat first try and the pull-ups in a few it's not that bad. Sorry that there are a few challenging SIDE SIDEEEE missions. One of the few posts where the response "mad cuz bad" fits perfectly. There are plenty things to complain about with this game and this ain't one of them lmao.

I did 64 squats on my first try with my eyes closed lol. OP don't ever try DDR or Guitar Hero, you might get a stroke! :lunar2019laughingpig:

Squats is easy af, pull up challenge is another story.

If I may, a few tips that really help with this are:
- Keeping a rhythm, try doing the "1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4" in your head.
- When the button prompts disappear pay attention to when Cloud/Tifa stop moving, that's your queue to press the next button in the order.

Even though the button order in pull-ups is randomized each round you should still have time to see the order and the shape you're moving your fingers around in is always an hourglass like shape (assuming you're playing with controller)

you and others complaining about that had best avoid games that use QTE design then.

Random question, what happens if it is a tie? Count as lost?
