I know this sounds completely out of nowhere since all I do is talk about FNF and sometimes Eddsworld up here, but I just found this kinda funny and I wanted to share it.

If you miss a few beats in the PaRappa games, your score goes from good to bad, or awful if you do worse. And then you get bad ending cutscenes if your score is low enough.

The visual differences from good to bad/awful in each scene were noticeable for me,

...just not the sound/audio differences :(

I didn't notice it until Um Jammer Lammy stage 2 (Fire Fire), the score went from good to bad and I began to notice something off with the instrumental. It sounded...almost desolate and muted, heard some weird sound effects too. I thought it was my headphones at first. And then the score goes back up to good and then the instrumental is fine again. Score goes to awful and, oh god, the music quality decline was definitely noticeable at that point 0_0

Stage 3, the music sounded staticky and started skipping like a broken record. Final stage, the music sounds just as empty as the setting looks when your score gets lower.

Fam, your telling me that if my accuracy sucks...then the music starts to suck? ;-;

Idk, I just found that interesting! I kinda wish more rhythm games had this feature.
