Jubeat Prop First Play

Again, the whole game center was filled with people and the preparation of the new Time Crisis game was pretty much on the way last Saturday. Unfortunately, it looked like it was really late for my energy to catch up and that the worse thing was that I forgot where the headphone jack would be for the Jubeat arcade machines so I played it without the use of the earpiece I have. I guess that it was already 2-3 years ever since I last played Jubeat as the most recent plays of mine were from Beatmania IIDX and Sound Voltex which I was getting close to completing my goals or something.
For Jubeat Prop, there is the player leveling up system similar to Maimai, Groove Coaster and of course Project Diva Arcade. There may be additional songs available the more you play and level up but in addition to that, there are also in-game objectives to clear as well. Sort of like the achievements but this time, you get to see the ones in the game in addition to seeing the ones on the game's official website. Also, like other Bemani games where each folder represents each mix/style or something, Jubeat Prop recently has one upon browsing through the Music Select screen. From there, I may have the similar goal in attempting the songs from Jubeat Saucer, Saucer Fulfill and Copious Append. It will take me months or something to level up my play skills from there but even then, I'm still at 4Dan and nobody knows when will I level up even further. I actually had attempted 5Dan in Beatmania IIDX the last time but I failed. Such failure might make me think of the similar failure risk should I attempt and fail the Skill Analyzer Level 5 courses in Sound Voltex due to higher difficulty.
In addition, there are additional stuffs coming up like more songs for Bemani games as part of the on-going events and after this blog post, I already know that Gitadora Tri-Boost recently came out in the arcades with the Session Combo thingy that is similar to Maimai series that has the Synchronization Combo. It looks much funner that way as you're rocking out together like a rock band.
Like always, every year a sequel comes out, be prepared to make adjustments before you even start playing it for the first time as certaint things may be reset when you migrate from the previous game to the current one.
