I mean Paranoia is the most renound series in the DDR universe (i think) correct me if i am wrong. But i mean there would be no PSMO, PS paranoia rebirth. What do you think?

More trip machines.

And trip machine is about 5x better than PARANOiA anyway, so it would be awesome.

A world without Paranoia?

Well, I guess we wouldn't be scared of anything.

He got banned.

On topic:
As long as we're talking about the songs, it would be basically same as it always was except we wouldn't have all these dumb threads about them.

PARANOiA is what makes DDR though, do you see much of a challenge in the trip machines?

I say trip machine survivor is the hardest, but it can't match PSMO.
but i'd consider PSMO a max song; it's part of max quartet.

either way they're both by the same artists.

Smoke is right. Trip machine survivor is hard but not too hard.

Climax is harder.

Besides, hardness isnt the only thing that matters. The trip machine absolutely own Paranoia musically, and their stepcharts are much wierder/more fun. biggrin.gif

This is just an offshoot of the old "ZOMG WTF if their was no DDR??!1!!1" thread. Same answer applies: I'd just spend more time playing other games, or doing something else.

WE could all play Make a Difference and be happy!!!

Anyways, qucik opinion, Trip Machines are better. They are more fun and interesting musically and step wise. Another thing: I want another Healing Vision mix...

Ok, let's examine this. We would still have plenty of good and difficult songs in games without Paranoias...

Konamix would still have Dead End, Afronova, and Leading Cyber among other notable catas.

MAX1 would have Trip Machine Climax and both Healing Visions (ooo yeah), along with MAX300, and Orion .78.

MAX2 would still have Trip Machine Jungle Mix (or something like that), MaxX Unlimited, and So Deep among other notable catas.

Extreme would have TM Survivor, MAximizer (ooo yeah), Legend Of Max, and Can't Stop Falling In Love ~Speed Mix~ among other notable cata's.

Overall we would still have difficult songs. I must admit I was a little dissapointed when UM2 didn't have a paranoia. My first thought was "There are no paranoias or trip machines! But they give us a cyber? What is up with that!!!!"

Then I found Tittle Tattle and was ok with it. There are many good songs that aren't known for being DDR songs. It's kind of like saying "Would we ever watch football anymore if the Jets were never created?" Of course we would, there just wouldn't be any Jets!

IMO, DDR w/o the Paranoias wouldn't be as fun as it is. The Trip Machine songs may sound better, but that's not to say I don't like the Paranoias from a musical standpoint. Besides, every Trip Machine song is EASY! The hardest one is Climax, and the worst it has is a bunch of jumps thrown into the middle of 8th runs.

Chances are, the Trip Machine series would have taken over. Things would've went along as normal (maybe a Trip Machine KCET or Trip Machine Rebirth somewhere along the lines) and when we get to Extreme, Konami would probably have made Trip Machine Survivor a 270 BPM 10 footer and paired it with Trip Machine Survivor Max, a 290 BPM flashing 10 footer.

This is a really dumb question. And that was a really long sentence.

If there weren't so many Paranoias, we could have more versions of Cutie Chaser... two just isn't enough!

DDR without PARANOiA goog.gif
I probably wouldn't be as interested in DDR as I am now.

On the first DDR mixes the PARANOiAs were THE challenging songs. Then came the first Max song on 6th mix. (I don't think there were any new PARANOiAs on 6th & 7th mix.) 8th mix was the comeback.(PSMO)
(I don't think there would be any Maxes if it weren't for PARANOiA.)

No PARANOiA=No Max=No Challenge=No ME!

I made my own PARANOiA t-shirt, btw. E4.gif

I think it would be dull and boring. Most people who play DDR look forward to getting the Paronoia's so it would be very boring

true; id be bored with ddr 8th already. i need and want a challenge.
if there was no paranoias, we wouldnt be talking about something that doesn't exist!! so it wouldnt matter!

also, the trip machines are one of the shortest songs on DDR; they are only about 1:20, as the paranoias are around 1:30 or 1:35.

i also wondered what DDR would be like without naoki or U1-Asami.

Trip Machine Climax and Survivor both clock in at over 1:30.

Anyway, without Paranoia, we'd either have another jungle/hardcore series in its place, or Trip Machine would be the over-remixed played out series of DDR.
