Hatsune Miku Project Diva series general discussion thread

Seeing livetune put in an outright house track this time makes me wish these games would embrace the dance music side of things. Since they are now having to repeat all these songs if they stick with the usual genres.

Like, would an HSP track really not work?

Whoa, I don't think I realized Project DIVA X is coming out so soon in Japan. Nice. I hope the US release isn't too far behind - my guess is late summer. Can't come soon enough...

Yeah LOL sounds better in Mirai, but might have to wait until I can listen to the real thing.

We have seen everything but the chaos, beauty, and ultimate medleys by this point yes?

Is Project Diva X shaping up to be a full Diva game? I ordered it yesterday but I remember reading it has like 30 songs?
Click to expand...

30 songs is the shortest song list in series history, but not short to the point that it would be considered a partial game by any means. Song count history:

Project DIVA: 32 (+4 alternate vocals)
Project DIVA 2nd: 46 (+10 DLC, ~13+2 repeats)
Project DIVA extend: 37 (~13 repeats)
Project DIVA f: 32 (+ 7 DLC, 0.5 repeats)
Project DIVA F 2nd: 40 (+16 DLC, ~20+15 repeats)

Repeat counts are approximate based on a quick pass through the list from memory.

I celebrated Miku Day by taking a laser to my ipad. Never mind the changes in gradient as you move up the image - we needed to turn down the power on the laser as we went up to not blow out the face. It was our first time working with a Space Gray iPad, and all the settings we found online for recommended power were way too high, even after we turned them down to err on the side of caution.

Still, I'm super happy with the results. Also ordered Project Diva X thanks to Amazon.co.jp allowing it now!

^ That looks really nice 👌👌👌

Vast majority are new songs too. There are only a few songs here that have been in previous games.

Two full songs and 14 in the medleys are repeats from earlier games.

I still think Hajimete no Oto has no business being in this game, though.

Really 14 in the medleys? I haven't gone through and counted them but that seems higher. I think all the ones we heard are new arrangements though at least?

X just seems to have a much fresher setlist than F2nd to me, which granted I probably spent most of my time playing the remakes outside a few standouts. But I still go back to F every once in a while because it all seems so new.

Hopefully X gets song DLC...I'd like to think they do something similar as F and have a pack out for the PS4 release.

There's uhhh Koisuru Voc@loid, Dreaming Leaf, Fukigen Waltz, Miracle Paint, Unhappy Refrain, Tengaku, Palette, Freely Tomorrow, Sweet Devil, Shoushitsu, Two-Sided Lovers, 2D Dream Fever, Sadistic Music Factory, and Gekishou. That'd be 14 repeats unless I missed any.

Edit: If we're counting Mirai then add in 1 2 Fanclub and Ageage Again for 16.

I wasn't doubting you, just seemed like a lot more than I thought.

But then you count up all the medley songs and there are 27 across six medleys.

Hmm, I kind of regret not pre-ordering from there instead of CDJapan. I'm just getting CDJapan's exclusive micro fiber towel. That's a nice module.

I'm pretty sure the CA Style module isn't store exclusive. At least it is listed on my AmiAmi order as well.

I wish I got the Amazon theme though.

All the PV's for X in trailers seem a bit off and I could not place my finger on it. We have had dance only PV's (Weekender Girl, Packaged etc.) before but these look a bit weird. I just realized after viewing a few PV's on PDF 2nd this morning. Since we can change the stage they have made the stages bigger and the camera angles they are employing for the concert look are making them even look bigger. We are not getting enough close cuts in X's PV's.

X has worse choreography too, imo. Just compare Weekender Girl or Acute to Streaming Heart or the Mitchie M medley. The dancing in X often looks like not much thought was put into it.

It looks like everything in X was made using the in-game editor to me xD

True. MitchieM choreography was such a letdown. I was thinking that all 6 modules shall dance on every medley. :/

Bummer that we have to pay for Mikudayo again. And Sakine Meiko hasn't been DLC before, so that's extra shady. Aaaaaand I guess we can't unlock modules through an F 2nd save either, since they're doing the whole paid unlock cheat thing I wish would just die already.

Is it confirmed we have to pay for Mikudayo again?

When F2nd came out, if you bought the modules that were released for f/F that were the same (extra characters), then you could use them in 2nd without having to re-buy. Mikudayo could be the same case here.

This being a general discussion thread for the games, is it all right to ask a question about buying Vocaloid music? I've recently found this album and have completely fallen in love with it (give it a listen, you are bound to like it). It's a shoegazing compilation of different producers with Miku on vocals, and it was supposedly being sold at this store called Tora. Just as I learned I could use Tenso to order from there I learned that it was sold out and I think I've sadly reached the end of the line and will never get this album, unless someone here knows a bit more on where I could find an alternative way to buy it. I'm praying for a miracle right now, really.
