Hi guys.
Welcome to another episode of TwoSet Violin.
And today we have a very um...
I don't know how to explain it.
A very interesting violin game that I stumbled across.
- Yeah. - The app is literally called "Violin".
Hey, what are you playing there?
Violin.
I haven't done much on it.
I think it'll be interesting to see
what this game is all about.
But before we keep going...
Accent the like button!
Pow!
Alright, here we go.
It's fancy!
That was "We Wish You a Merry Christmas".
It's not even Christmas.
It's not even Christmas, what month are we in now?
June.
Yeah, it's June now.
Who was here at the beginning of the year with us?
Please accent the like button if you are.
If you're not...
...accent the like button.
So basically like, notes come down the string like that.
- Okay. - Like DDR...
...those games, you know?
And then the bow, you can move...
...back and forth.
I guess they're trying to like, mimic this motion.
Yeah.
- But it's so wrong. - This is horrendous.
- It's so wrong...yeah. - The angles are way off.
And the proportion of the bow is just so wrong as well.
- Yeah. - Like the bow looks...
...smaller than the violin.
Before we even start playing this...
..."violin',
E string should be this.
Look how low that is.
Their E string is...
Like how am I meant to bow, man?
Their G string is this angle.
- That's way too high. - Which is like...
Maybe if I want to bow the actual wood on my violin,
I would do that.
This...just a sense of proportion, alright?
The frog, and the bow.
- And their freakin' frog... - Look at their frog, it's like...
- It... - Versus the violin, it's like...
It's so small!
We're actually playing on a double bass with a...
...quarter-size violin bow.
Oh you gotta pay for so—
Oh my god.
*sigh*
How do I stop this thing?!
Favourite songs.
There's nothing more...
- Oh, bro! - Ohhhh...!!!
Dude, it just stopped!
Why would you stop?!
Music doesn't stop!
Bro it's glitching.
There's no left hand engagement.
I wish playing the violin was just the right hand.
Dude, and it's not even a fun game.
- It's so painful right now. - Yeah, it's so boring.
Oh, you can do tremolo!
Oh, Paganini bow—
Oh but your points are getting lower man.
Really?
Oh, can you do this?
It's Paganini...!
I don't get the purpose of this game.
It's a...
It's a high school project.
Yeah...let's choose a...
F***.
- This Canon in D is free, except... - Oh, let's go!
It's the wrong key!
Oh, really?
It's in G major.
- Oh, you get more points if you sustain it! - Oh!
Wow, more points!
Ohhh!!!!
Why is there 2 notes?
I think my string crossing's not good or something,
I don't know.
Dude, when I cross the string, it like...
- Really? Let me try. - It just moves.
Dude, the notes are weird!
Dude, stop!
Did you hear that?
It's a viola.
- It went to a low E...! - It went too low...it did!
It makes perfect sense now.
It sounds very accurate, I'm sorry.
What's this one?
"Magic bow is turned on!"
Ohh!!!
- Ohh...!!!!! - Oh, that's how you play, it's a tutorial!
Dude!
Musicians!
We're gonna be jobless!
- It's... - I hate this game.
I'm so bored.
I've never been so bored in a game so fast.
Ode to Joy, let's go.
That's not f***ing Ode to Joy!
Hey guys, just playing it as Beethoven wrote it.
- I give up. - In case you don't know, Ode to Joy is...
But nevermind,
'cause you don't need a left hand while playing, right?
Yeah, you just use...
You don't even need a...
Just...just touch the screen.
'Cause at least Guitar Hero used a left hand element
- and a right hand element, and it's fun. - Yeah.
Yeah.
Or even Dance Dance Revolution,
- Yeah. - all those like, the drum games.
There's some element of...variety, not just...
How do you rate this app?
Probably not playable.
Rate it a...viola.
Out of violin.
Actual review, I think this app is not playable.
Yeah.
And I do not know how it got like...
...high ratings in the App Store.
- And 4.5 million views. - Yeah.
I actually feel like...
Playing a violin is...
- ...so much funner than this. - It actually is.
Yeah, like you think a game would be funner, but...
Dude, playing violin would be so much funner.
There's also no satisfaction in this.
Just no.
'Cause there's no like...
You literally just...dude, anyone can do this.
I cannot picture anyone...
...like, seriously playing this.
Yeah, it's impossible.
Don't know why you guys watched this episode,
but please accent the like button,
and subscribe.
Don't play this game.
It's not good.
What you should play is actually playing your violin,
play your instrument.
See you guys.
