      @Schnort Před měsícem +10

      I think the only thing that has gone downhill is the UI, at least on the Wii. JD 2016, 2017, and 2018 have incredibly long loading times in comparison to 4 and 2014. (Perhaps this is just my console? It's not an issue with other games, though, so I think not.) The background and general UI are nearly the same across all three games besides some color changes, and they all share the same sound effects and songs. I'd love it if they differentiated each other a bit. 2016 and 2017 are basically the same game to me due to the similarity.
      Edit: menu songs, not dance songs

      Well as Just Dance player I can tell you... It depends what is the worst and what is the biggest or what even how the saga is getting better... Cause JD 2014 is still the best game of the main games and JD 2015 and JD 2018 are the worst... Even JD 2023 Edition is something that it can considered good or bad depending on what factor or which area you want to discuss.

    I was very nervous while watching this one because I was scared that the review of 2023 and 2024 would be very negative - it’s an insanely common sentiment (that I heavily disagree with). I’m so happy to see you liked them! I sadly can’t play them myself outside of CZcams because I only own a Wii, but whenever I dance them from CZcams they’re super fun to do, and the graphics have improved so much!

      @pines45 Před 2 měsíci +37

      It is mostly because of how buggy the recent games have been, with it being a new engine. It also has to do with how it didn’t have many modes or content that were present in the previous games (World Dance Floor, Sweat Mode, Lack of songs in JD+ on launch day for JD2023)

      The community believes that 2023 and 2024 are the worst because Ubisoft did not make an effort to improve what we already had before.
      The profiles, the menu, the dances and so on are very nice, but everything seems like special effects when see the experience.
      Do you know how much they talk about good dances, game modes, base and seasonal content, bug fixes, online connection, good story, optimization of the game itself and more from their gay basic culture memes and posts?
      Mostly of them more intresting than THE GAME.

    Just Dance Unlimited is removing tons of songs August 1st when the license expires. I think they've already been removed from Just Dance Now.
    ALSO, as of July 1st 2024, Playstation and Xbox users won't even be able to purchase Just Dance Unlimited anymore. So, if you don't have it downloaded for your 2019-2022 versions, do that now!
    Notable songs going away: Bailando, Barbie Girl, Boombayah, Can't Stop the Feeling, Cotton Eye Joe, Die Young, Forget You, Gangnam Style, Happy, I Don't Feel Like Dancin, Lay All Your Love on Me, Levitating, Love Story, Mamma Mia, Montero, Old Town Road, Starships, ,Super Bass, Taki Taki, Tik Tok, Uptown Funk, and Womanizer. That's just a list of my favorites that are going away, they are removing around TWO HUNDRED SONGS.
    Some of these songs are literally on the cover art for JD2022, so that I don't understand lmao.
    I really hate this era of game companies being able to take away things you already paid for.

    35:11 What makes the Grease inspired Story Mode better is that ABBA did compete with Olivia Newton John, who played Sandy in the original movie, at Eurovision, and then 4 years later, both of them performed together in a TV Special on ABC.

    Fun fact about JD2023E: the 2023 version for toxic (the one at 1:28:36) was created by the JD team with the help of a famous JD content creator from France known as TheFairyDina. She, of course, is a fan of JD and a huge fan of Britney Spears. When the JD team asked for her help she was very excited and eager to do it. She even makes a cameo appearance in the background around where you enter the first class of the plane (the one around 1:29:08 where she will be seen in a hot tub). This is also why the coach is known as ”Agent D” simply because the “D” in the name stands for “Dina”
    Thought that would be something nice to bring up

    Interestingly, as a kid, I thought 2015 was just an okay game too. Glad to know it wasn’t just me. I think 2,3,4 and 2014 were the best ones.

    Just Dance 2015 is not perfect, in fact it's not even on my top 3 but my god I can't believe out of all things to criticize it for you chose the backgrounds. I think they're pretty good if not one of the best eras for the franchise in terms of backgrounds. Voids can work if they're distinct enough from each other, which I think they are. Even Just Dance 2014 had a few with don't you worry child, wild or we can't stop, feel this moment, among others. Also a lot of the voids are 3d which really help at selling the depth, which other games really fail at doing.
    -Diamonds I think is gorgeous, the glistening rainbow effects that the background and coach produce is insanely beautiful
    -Addicted to you wouldn't have worked in any other way other than that sultry glittery void imo, where the light follows the coach in a delicate and enchanting manner, almost like it's an extension of the coach, like wings. The void makes the grand moves feel more appropiate as the space is big enough to acommodate it.
    -Black widow follows the spider theme to a T, I love how the coach interacts with the webs as she moves. Camera work is flawless
    -Built for this has this psychydelic 80's feel that's combined with the 2010's neon craze which I think looks nice.
    -I love it isn't even a void(? Idk why that was included in there, yeah it's kind of abstract but I think that goes with the lowkey alien look they tried to give to the coach. Also really good camera work
    A song where I'm absolutely trashing the devs is you're on my mind, which is literally a mashup only song. As a kid I thought that gimmick was fine but looking back it would've been so cool to get an actual MAP. As for the songlist, I thought it was pretty nice! Only thing is I wish there was more pop songs instead of the overload of goofy songs like xmas tree or speedy gonzalez, now THOSE are rotted. What I think Just Dance 2015 biggest weakness is is it's lack of game modes compared to JD 2014 or 4

    I’ve been a fan of JD since JD2018 and it is wild seeing how JD has always been constantly improving, even it’s by a little bit with each game. (JD 2018 has my favorite ui but I still agree with the song list being a little lackluster)
    It is quite refreshing to see how it’s like for a player who isn’t really in the JD community, especially with the recent JD games and it just seems so interesting to see how the Just Dance franchise is like from someone who wasn’t really following the games in real time. I know the recent ones get a lot of criticism from the community but I just can’t help but love the recent ones, including some of the alternatives. (Cure For Me paper alt ily) They really made the story and lore for the recent JD games so good, especially since it was done by one person at the time. It fr makes me happy to see that JD still has that charm that the older games had on several JD players.

    one quick note on jd15, sweat mode did also allow to activate the cal counter while playing the game as usual (like in jd14) as well as having the playlists so its more of an addition to the mode instead of changing it completely

    I'm glad I watched this, I was a bit salty about some changes they made (specifically the way they went about dlc) and I wrote off so many of these games. But this retrospective made me see the dedication they took for each game and the upgrades. I will be trying the new games more fairly and I have a new appreciation of this series. I loved it early on glad to bring it back.

    Amazing video, though I wish to correct a few mistakes with this comment
    1. Just dance wiiu is not the last Japanese just dance game, yo-kai watch dance just dance special edition is. Edit: sorry, he actually mentions this!
    2. Just dance 2015 does hwve extremes! They are just listed as alternates
    3. This guy missed the game 'Just dance now' a mobile game, you connect your phone to the tv to display the dance on your tv and use your phone to track
    4. He also forgot to mention that just dance 2015 introduced mobile tracking!
    5. He mentions just dance 2020 started doing seasons however seasons actually started in just dance 2019
    Those are all I noticed for now, im still watching the video so I will edit if I find any mistakes

    It's not by Hatsune Miku, she doesn't make the songs because, she's just a virtual voice. Also, it's only a cover, the song itself was made in 1928 long before Miku became a thing, and was written by Eini Kettunen to a traditional polka tune. Miku was tuned in the 2007 cover by Otomania ^^

    the bep one is miles apart, and despite tracking problems and some annoying repeating moves is a very unique spin off
    the hip hop one have the same visuals, but in hd, but the tracking is waaaayyyy better than it was on bep experience, also, the 360 version have harder choreos, some of the harder ones in the entire franchise!!
    also, make it jingle for me is that type of thing that it's so bad and absurd that makes it gold, I swear, for weeks I couldn't get that fat ass twerk off my mind lol
    also, thank you so much for the video!! so great to see a genuine review of the franchise, especially coming from someone new to the games, you did an amazing job and it shows!!

      Same, I hate the new JD games. I was already hating 2020 when I got it for Christmas 5 years ago. I kinda grew to love it, but luckily since I live far from the person who gave me JD games, I didn't get anymore past 2020... except the 2023 but I bought it because there seemed like a fun thing. But no. Got scammed out of free month of JD Unlimited and the event was over. Idk the newer ones just look weird. The best thing to do is just play it around those who gave those games to you and... idk how to word it... play the game and critique
