osu!, a rhythm game about clicking circles, has had a new client in development since 2014, aiming to fix some of the issues and “spaghetti code” the previous stable version had. The new client, Lazer, is open-source and works on Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. Lazer has finally been made the default download option for new players just starting the game.
r/place made me hate Osu! players.
Because they wanted to have their circle? It was small compared to other ugly things c’mon.
Because they were clearly using bots to do it.
They were a pretty active community, and the first to develop the browser extension that helped you colour each pixel correctly. Then everyone used it. Idk, they were heavily attacked from all fronts because weeb. I don’t think they were botting. There were plenty way more complex projects that finished way too fast for them not to be botted for you to hate the OSU! community that much.
Well, there was a big fight between BTMC and xQc. It was a massive event (relatively speaking), so that’s why everything happened so quickly and immediately always. But I wouldn’t be surprised if some people used bots to help out, but I know that most were real people who just sat there and waited for another pixel.
It’s not as if someone made an LLM out of an Osu bot or anything.
Was it though??
