I haven't played the original, so I was excited to give this one a shot. I'd like to know what your experience has been like so far.
Unfortunately, I'm not really enjoying it because of the interface. I can play songs like The Trooper or Blood and Thunder from past experience, but when trying to actively follow along to this I just get lost and confused. I was playing Cold Company and had a hard time following along, so I figured it out by ear and looked away with more success.
If you've played the last edition, does it just take several hours to get acclimated? Have you been able to learn complex songs with this? Is it just a matter of instantly recognizing which color is which string?
And for guitar veterans, do you think this is an efficient way to learn? I don't like sight-reading via a note highway so far, and find written tabs or Guitar Pro to be a lot more effective because you can see ahead.
Personally, I've been playing for a dozen years but have been having far more fun in session mode. Seems like a feature-rich game, with all sorts of tools and side activities to dig into. But it's been two hours and the main mode of play has been bumming me out.
