“We take people who don’t believe in themselves and make it so they can say, ‘I can do this.'” “We made it faster, better, and listened to our community of users,” Bonardi said. This time around, the load times are a lot shorter, said Nick Bonardi, lead audio designer for Rocksmith 2014, in an interview with GamesBeat. That allowed enough time for some genuine improvements.

The absence of that competition helped Ubisoft find the footing for its sequel over a couple of years. Gamers got sick of it, and they hung up their fake guitars. They churned out new editions that had too little innovation. That was one of the problems that came with the war between Activision Blizzard’s Guitar Hero and Rock Band by EA-Harmonix-MTV. The trick, of course, is to do this without banishing the fun. The goal is to take people who wouldn’t ordinarily be musicians and turn them into real guitarists. One of the reasons for that, Ubisoft believes, is because games can offer “adaptive learning,” where they can test your skill and then adapt the difficulty to fit your proficiency. “It’s the closest thing you can get to having a guitar teacher there, without having a guitar teacher there,” said Nao Higo, executive producer of Rocksmith, in an interview with GamesBeat.Īn independent national study by Research Strategy Group found that Rocksmith is the “fastest way to learn guitar,” partly because it tells you what you did wrong in a song and allows you to learn the way you want to learn. 30+ sessions and 500+ attendees are set to arrive, so don’t want to miss this opportunity to expand your network.
