    It's basically Theaterythym so if you've played that before or rythym type games in general it should be easy... but for those who haven't, it's frustating as anything. I don't know, maybe it's just lag but I keep missing every single prompt and failing (and I'm rapidly hitting the keyboard, I don't have a controller).

    Guess I'll keep at it, but my enthusiasm for this year's event has diminished...

    I consistently fail it with a mouse. I can score 8 or 9 with keyboard until my FPS sinks (which is happening as people go in and out of the amphitheater) then I'm lucky to avoid complete failure.

    It's a bad concept for what should be a fun, casual holiday event. I've got one friend who keeps failing the mini-game so she can't even complete the quest chain for the glamour and it's got her incredibly disappointed at time when she should be filled with cheer.

    If the response is going to be "tough for her, she can pay real money next year to buy it", that is not acceptable.

    Funnily enough, it was with the mouse I was finally able to pass it, just... (with a score of 8 misses, one more missed and I would have failed again). But yeah lag is definetly a problem with this.

    And I agree the minigame should be optional, not a compulsory requirement to progress in it. Ah well, the event is fun, once you can get around the issues with the minigame.
