ARGH!

I just finished 99% of One on Hard. I lost my rhythm on the last set of fast strum notes, and got booed off at almost the last second.

This does give me hope that I can do it.

Guitar Hero 4 Thoughts

As if my opinion matters:

There is no need to increase the difficulty any more. There is a good shot of losing a large portion of the audience (like my wife and son) if the game continues to increase in arbitrary difficulty. We play the game to enjoy the music more than anything else.

Metal is not the only genre with great guitar music. Please keep selecting from a broad range of styles and artists. Introducing some blues guitar and even some country guitarists would only improve things, even if they were on the bonus song list.

In career mode and quick play, let me play either guitar or bass/rhythm for each song. Track my score and star totals individually. Make the guitar the only one that is required to pass a tier. Don't make me go to coop or practice to play bass.
