Pretty funny to watch Jaiden’s chat have a civil war over “grr she swore” and “grr she can swear if she wants” when they’re watching a goddamn blindfolded rhythm game
@@LoudWaffle I think it's moreso Jaiden has never sworn in a video for such a long time and only recently she has started to swear. Personally I don't mind it but I would see why it would be jarring for some people.
Jaiden can have a pretty strange chat lmao. They keep telling her to not curse even tho it’s her stream. And some don’t even care about what’s going on and just spam in chat hoping that she notices.
@@EverTheFractal i don't know how much of it is infantilizing female streamers and how much of it is a large portion of her viewers being infants themselves who are only used to her very family friendly main channel
@@jacksonsmith2955 some female/male streamers,be too much family friendly in their channel,and cuz of that audience thinks that they re like this everywhere. And when they be rude/swear,their brain explozin like,WHAT SHE SWEARED??? IMPOSSBIEL!!!!!!!!!!
Indeed, but also a lot of the skips were jarring, because they happened just I was jamming out to the songs, so I would be expecting the next notes sequentially in a given song to happen, and then it would just end. It was kind of funny, too
At first I thought *only* Okay was allowed, and that sounds like it would be hilarious, to have to restart because you did too well. Idea for the future maybe?
I also thought this, and when Jaiden got a Superb on the first game and was wondering if she got it perfect, I was like “oh no does she not remember the terms?? if you get better than okay do you have to reset your whole run???”
@@Gecksity How? If you accidentally get a Superb you'd have to start from the beginning. Doing well doesn't make it take longer, it's a rhythm game. Each challenge is always the same length each and every time.
I feel like this is probably one of the easiest video games on the planet to play blindfolded. There's a number of minigames in the Rhythm Heaven series which I personally find EASIER when I'm not distracted by the visuals. Samurai Slice and Air Rally in particular try to confuse you with chaotic visual changes and obscuring the screen, but are incredibly straightforward if you just listen to the audio cues.
@@rsking6120 A lot of them I would disagree, classic rhythm games like Guitar Hero, Stepmania, ADOFAI... All require a LOT of memorization. Whereas Rhythm Heaven, it's a BEAUTIFULLY designed game which requires little to no memorization at all. It's all just picking up on cues and properly reacting to things. Not trying to disagree, I do think you're right that rhythm game blindfolded play is WHOLLY different from almost any other genre, but what I meant to highlight was specifically the fact that there's actually a handful of minigames which are actually made easier while blindfolded!
The only one that's genuinely more difficult blindfolded is built to scale. Everything else, the difficulty stays the same, if not becomes easier without visuals.
@@Queen_Of_Discord Even built to scale isn't very difficult, the cues always start from the same side. Now built to scale in Remix 3, that one's a challenge.
@@rsking6120 - Depends on the game. Rhythm Heaven appears to only use a single button or clearly defined buttons for audio cues. Rhythm games that I've encountered (DDR, Melody of Memory, etc.) require you to know which button out of several to push at the right time. The pressing of the buttons is on beat, but unless you have memorized which ones to push, a visual element is needed.
ive heard that blind people play the rhythm heaven games (obviously with some help from a seeing friend for instructions/menuing) so this was pretty cool to see aside from built to scale and working dough, these games actually seem pretty well made with blind people in mind, very cool
I raise you that WD is a Simon Says-type game, so as long as you know what the two input types are you should be able to mimic them blind, they both just struggled with it. BtS is on thin ice (tangent but I hate that it's called that and does not involve scales, DS did it better) but if you think of it as one long sound cue per two widgets, I'm pretty sure it never stops alternating between the long and short. In the remixes it's definitely not guessable blind, though (again, an issue DS BtS does not have, so I'm doubly salty)...
34:58 if you count, it still follows the rhythm. So it's still on the one-AND count of the measure; just keep the tempo of the song, and hit A on the upbeat of the second measure (so count: one and two and three and four and one >AND< and that's when you hit it)
CJ said Working Dough is a pretty visual game, and I agree. Working Dough 2 has always been my least favorite game. and it's not because i'm a visual rhythm game player; it's specifically because i'm not. i'm visually impaired, so relying solely on audio cues is tough when they're so wonky already. it was my last perfect by far
Its hilarious to me that you guys both find bossa nova hard lol, Ive played drums for nearly 10 years now (lessons weekly) and because of this bossa nova is almost second nature to me (I love playing bossa nova)
Bossa nova was tricky for me to get the hang of the first few times, but once I got the feel for it I fell so in love with it that I kept going back and replaying it lmao
28:55 aHem-- *suffers in 60% speed* 29:54 "O-kay its on!" *S c r a t c h B u t t* 31:40 Jaiden: "He's probably so ahead..." CJ: *Yar not dOne yet with dis gAme, iDioT.* 33:30 Simply wonderful. 40:55 mMmMm... *Gets an Ok* OHH- *dies in coughs*
The original rhythm heaven (possibly this one too I’ve never played it) actually encourages you to do it blind because it’s easier to just keep a beat lol
this one definitely does, there are a lot of visual elements that are meant to distract you (hot air balloon blocking the monkeys in monkey watch, confetti cannons during tap troupe, etc.), so it definitely encourages you to just follow the rhythm!
The idea is CJ wasn't counting Try Again or Perfect. "...But Still Just OK" happens if you hit the special inputs that would normally cost the run (like the one Jaiden was stuck on in Working Dough 2) but you still didn't hit enough unimportant inputs. Therefore that is the middle rating.
i love how everytime one of them get try again, the other's chat just keep saying "(other person) FAILED!!!" or "(other person) GOT TRY AGAIN" it's so funny
Same. I actually like the way this video was edited better than Jaiden’s first speedrun on this, which felt more chaotic and I couldn’t follow what was happening very well as someone who had never heard of or played the game.
If you can't tell when you're supposed to go if your eyes are closed, then it isn't a good rhythm game. Music and sound cues should always come before visuals
When I first read the title, I thought this was a challenge to only get OKs on each level. Now I get that that means OKs and Superbs and no Try Agains. Was so confused for a sec
@hubhikarilives I actually give props for that. It was a nice surprise for viewers and it doesn't feel like a collaboration for the sake of getting a big name on the title.
Im watching this, though I'm not a known person, I'm tempted to do this, ...though semi blind ontop of it because I haven't played since it was new, and I think I might do pretty well.
I feel like this game is more about recognizing patterns than it is about following any sort of rhythm, which is why the blindfold makes it so much harder. Then again, visual cues are SUPER helpful in proper rhythm games....
As someone who has played RH Megamix with my eyes completely on the road while walking on the sidewalk... This is a challenge I’d like to partake in with a suitable partner :D

The fact this is so possible (familiarity aside) is a testament to Rhythm Haven's outstanding sound design
I died at the game saying "You seemed lost in the quiet bits"
You miss literally one and it's like "You seemed completely fucking lost when it got quiet"
It's kinda funny that Jaiden at the beginning thought they were going for all Superbs and the first race was wasted.
I'm so glad to see both of them struggling on working dough 2. Makes me feel like all the time I spent struggling through that level was valid lmao
Props to the editor for those seamless time skips
Indeed, but also a lot of the skips were jarring, because they happened just I was jamming out to the songs, so I would be expecting the next notes sequentially in a given song to happen, and then it would just end. It was kind of funny, too
After watching RT Game play this, it's nice seeing people who are actually GOOD play.

Crazy that this is a highlight video for a Jaiden Animations stream that, at the time of uploading, is still going on.
Considering Jaiden was so stressed speedrunning this game the first time, I'm glad she could still have fun playing.
Not on Working Dough 2 she couldn't LOL that one was ROUGH for both of thrm
Aww, I wish you included the part where Jaiden didn't realize you were going for Okays and thought you were doing Superbs.

Yeah, rhythm games as a whole are well-designed for blindfolded gameplay due to the ability to simply rely on your sense of rhythm.

Was there for the whole stream. Good job man!
Watching this made me realize that Working Dough is literally Rhythm Hell.
i remember making a comment on Jaiden's original video about blindfolded gaming, very happy to see it happen. Working Dough 2 went exactly as expected
This is fun to listen to. No overreacting and no yelling like when you tried to get 100%
Bruh
The concepts of the vids are nice but holy shit he screams a lot
"I was expecting the 7 one, but it was the 1 one." Little does he know, they're one and the same...
It warms my heart to hear that Jaiden swears like a normal human being.
Out of all the things CJ did in this video, the most impressive thing was identifying the exact moment where Karate Joe scratches his butt.
"It makes me wanna... *Fight in a war* "
Lmao loved that
Triple dog dare?! Now this, is very very intense.

OMG OMG OMG THIS VIDEO IS FINALY OUT I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO IT THX CJ FOR POSTING IT SO FAST
Yes
As someone who at least understand music, working dough 2 is the worst to do blindfolded. Barely any cues, off beat notes. So annoying.
I was There for the whole stream. It was so good keep it up
The original rhythm heaven (possibly this one too I’ve never played it) actually encourages you to do it blind because it’s easier to just keep a beat lol
this one definitely does, there are a lot of visual elements that are meant to distract you (hot air balloon blocking the monkeys in monkey watch, confetti cannons during tap troupe, etc.), so it definitely encourages you to just follow the rhythm!
"I wish there was a middle we could be going for"
*as he gets "...But still just OK", the middle rating*
There's Try Again, OK, Superb, and Perfect. So there's kinda a middle, but only if you remove Perfects from the equation.
The idea is CJ wasn't counting Try Again or Perfect.
"...But Still Just OK" happens if you hit the special inputs that would normally cost the run (like the one Jaiden was stuck on in Working Dough 2) but you still didn't hit enough unimportant inputs. Therefore that is the middle rating.
Monkey watch being easier blind folded will never not be funny to me lol
Same with build to scale being hard blindfolded
Working Dough 2 is ridiculous with visuals and absolutely impossible without.
i love how everytime one of them get try again, the other's chat just keep saying "(other person) FAILED!!!" or "(other person) GOT TRY AGAIN" it's so funny
"I heard he is an OK samurai... He hasn't been killed yet"
The OK only goal ends at 1:18 and goes on to be completely forgotten about
It'd be interesting to see an actual "OK only" run. Having to redo things because you did TOO good.
13:37 My autistic brain really appreciates that smooth edit. I don't care how any other part of the video goes, that edit gets an A+.
Same. I actually like the way this video was edited better than Jaiden’s first speedrun on this, which felt more chaotic and I couldn’t follow what was happening very well as someone who had never heard of or played the game.
I got concerned about Working Dough 2 very quickly in this, good to see my concerns were founded lol
Working Dough 2 having a fail condition based on one note is so brutal.
this is the same as build to scale 2 on the ds version, when it got dark for a second, when you missed that note then its game over, restart.
I love rhythm heaven sm, great to see you playing it!
I’m sad that the Tambourine one is so forgettable it has one of my most favorite themes from the whole game
Jaiden wearing a actual blindfold
Cjya becoming a among us character
If you can't tell when you're supposed to go if your eyes are closed, then it isn't a good rhythm game. Music and sound cues should always come before visuals
cj using a mask as a blindfold will always be funny to me 😭😭😭

And Tap Troupe
When I first read the title, I thought this was a challenge to only get OKs on each level. Now I get that that means OKs and Superbs and no Try Agains. Was so confused for a sec
Omg I was looking for this comment I was wondering what was happening
Jaidens posture is so good and I’m kinda jealous
I'm so glad Rhythm Heaven is getting the resurgence it deserves !
Why is Flock Step like the only minigame that didn't get shown? It's my favorite. Does it get copyright claimed or smth?
UA-cam decided to make the screen blackout after an ad and it was very immersive.
Literally just saw a video uploaded 10 years ago of a guy doing a long thing in this game blindfolded and it was amazing
I love how they always get surprised when they get a superb 😂
Put Jaiden’s name in the video title, you’re missing out on a few hundred thousand views
@hubhikarilives I actually give props for that. It was a nice surprise for viewers and it doesn't feel like a collaboration for the sake of getting a big name on the title.
You forgot to mention that you did a run in which jadian thought you had to get superbs and was crushing you

I feel like this game is more about recognizing patterns than it is about following any sort of rhythm, which is why the blindfold makes it so much harder. Then again, visual cues are SUPER helpful in proper rhythm games....
but if there is one rhythm game where visual clues make it harder, it's this one
Rhythm Tengoku/Heaven/Paradise is a beautifully aggrivating game.
