Frederic: Resurrection of Music Director's Cut

This is despicable...
To drag the great name of Chopin into a pathetic Guitar Hero type piece of crap like this is just damning... If Chopin ever resurrected - I'd hope the first thing he would do is feast on the flesh of the moron(s) who created this rubbish.

Ouch.

Just go google 'sense of humor'. You're very unlikely to get some, but (at the very least) you'll know what it looks like.

Wow, someones sensitive... You've gotta stop taking things so super serial.

Did you know that 'Chopin Vodka' is actually produced in Poland?

There's a difference between having a sense of humour... and blindly accepting any old crap.

But you carry on spending your time playing crap... Have fun.

Thanx.
Must be better than spending your time posting on a so-called 'crap' forum thread anyway... I think.

I believe that's something you're incapable of doing.

Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you have the right to speak it. I'd love to see you make a fun, entertaining game like this that clearly a lot of people love. Don't be a salty a$$hole to people, especially not video game developers who put time, effort, and love into their game.

You are quite disrespectful.

No... the crappy idea of using the great music of Chopin and to debase it to crap like this is disrespectful. What I said was just stating the obvious.

You seem to be unaware of the mastery of Chopin's music. To take pithy ideas like this, dumbs down the game industry and the arts in general.

Hey Epic Failure Piano Man,

I just wanted to put one main point across to you:
As with guitar hero, which led to many people taking up REAL guitar, if this game leads to just ONE person taking up REAL piano lessons then I support it fully.


I play piano (as I'm guessing do you) but I don't have the same horrendous attitude that you put across with your initial post and subsequent replies. I play several Chopin etudes, nocturnes and waltzes as well as a few Beethoven piano sonatas.

Yes, the game is a simplification of what are incredibly-detailed, complex, technical, thoughtful and emotional pieces of music, but if you come into it with an Elitist pianist attitude then you will never see that it is just a GAME.

The game itself, through its cutscenes, actually states the kind of point you are ranting about here - that modern music is crap and that there has never been another master of his level since. The point of the game is that true piano mastery would conquer any modern music, which is why you play as Chopin and defeat all the modern types of music that have based theirs on his masterpieces.

Have a great day, hope the practice is going well ;)

This game is a lot of fun unlike Piano, Guy.

You obviously never had the skill to learn a REAL instrument then.

You go ahead and play this crap.

I like how you reply to his but not mine.

How many Etudes can you play Epic Failure?

Sorry... I must have missed it. Out of the 27 etudes (including the Novelle Etudes from Chopin), I can play about 10 of them. I'll admit I haven't learnt them all, but I've done about 12 of his preludes and 3 of his Ballades. The one I haven't touched is the A flat Ballade.

Congratulations, that is quite an achievement :)

Now getting back to one of the points I made earlier - if this game inspired someone to then take up piano, would that not be something beautiful?

We pianists are a dying breed, so anything that might inspire others to practice and eventually master the instrument I support.

So what's with the crap attitude? Don't you want others to begin practice or are you just content being a salty a$$h0l3 that looks down on anyone who hasn't already spent many years practising like we have?

If anyone else is reading this - don't listen to Mr Salty over here - play the game, and if you think the music is beautiful then start learning the piano and you could play the original (even more beautiful) pieces one day :)

First of all... games like this don't really inspire people to just seriously pick up the piano. If it did, then there would be plenty of people learning the guitar because they spent hours and hours playing Rock Band.

I do want people to learn piano, but not because they believe that music like Chopins can be achieved through shortcuts and pressing ♥♥♥♥♥♥ little buttons.

It cheapens the music of Chopin by presenting it in ways like it is in this game... and Chopins music is available all over YouTube and iTunes. It shouldn't need this to help influence people to think about learning the piano.

Does that answer your question?
