Quoted from rotordave:What the “new music” theme guys don’t get ...
Where’s the story line?
What happens?
You can’t just have a pinball playing music.
What’s on the LCD?
“Daft punk works on Tron” ... yeah it sure does. Because it enhances the Tron story amd gels with the ruleset.
You couldn’t remove Tron from that game and just have a Daft Punk pinball - what’s the story? How do you write rules to music that mostly doesn’t have words? Just plonk the ball around?
Other pins - Maiden, ACNC, etc - each song follows the song theme/lyrics. There’s an overarching goal to “battle the beast” or “escape the castle” or something.
I don’t know how you’d apply that to pop music.
Maybe someone has some ideas?

The LCD can feature screenshots of the artist's Twitter accounts, referencing Twitter beef and how award shows are so unfair.
If the mode of earning a Grammy nomination is not achieved, the machine will power down in protest.
It will be easy to design because you can interchange various modern pop and hip hop artists and it will all be the same.
There can also be a mode where you have to hit X number of shots to keep the copyright infringement lawyers away.
If the mode is not completed, the game will deduct points to settle things with the estate of the deceased artist that did the song first.
Another mode can be whatever song you select, you can earn a DJ Khaled team up. It does nothing. The only thing it does is adds a "DEE JAY KHALED!" shout out for whatever song you selected in the first place.
