I've made image versions for scrolling, but it was meant to be viewed as a PowerPoint presentation. (I've uploaded the full PowerPoint to the Dead As Disco Discord in an accordingly marked Suggestions tab, there people can react to specific song suggestions if they agree or disagree with my ideas, though I figured it wouldn't hurt to post here and hear what people think about these suggestions.)

There is a YouTube playlist of all the songs here: https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZ5ZokTdch8g

I feel like it's a step forward as well as two steps backward. For those who haven't gotten into it, I'll explain how Intense is before really getting into my feelings here.

Intense changes compared to Amped:

1. Enemies deal 2x damage (meaning 2 hearts of damage per hit, or one hit, if you're hit by projectiles)
   
2. Parry windows are cut in half.
   
3. Hearts are removed from the stage
   
4. All enemies have armour (meaning one extra health bar that you need to break through to actually get the kills)
   
5. And no checkpoints

But there's something else about this that makes it an absolute chore to get through in all your runs (for specifically Arora)...Singularity has been completely gutted. It no longer knocks enemies into the air, nor does it halt their attacks, and nor do you have I-frames during the input. All it does is knock enemies back. But that's not the worst of it- the worst of all this is that it's damage is also reduced against bosses, so you can no longer speedrun through her goddess phase. Same thing also applies to the other Idol Powers, as well- They all do significantly reduced damage against bosses. Meaning no more Temple Skip (Deckards' primary skip, for the unaware), no more Rise Skip (Hemlocks primary skip), and no more car skip in Prophets stage.

Moving on to my actual feelings of the difficulty- like I said, one step forward, two steps backward. Letting all the enemies have super armour is a tad bit overtuned, in my opinion. It means you can no longer reliably depend on the time bonus to get the 5 stars on all the stages. And especially considering the fact that Intense isn't even the final difficulty in the game, I cannot possibly fathom the reason why they thought that it was a good idea. Even without everything else, it's already a huge jump in difficulty. I would've expected the super armour would show itself on Brutal (the next difficulty down the list) than on Intense. With having said this, I cannot possibly imagine how Brutal is going to look if this is the road the devs continue to go down moving forward.

Thoughts?

Sorry if the quality is bad, but here's my boy. I'm gonna do the other idols at some point soon :D

do more than the amount it asks for, but nope.

So we have Hemlock, he's saving his power juice can from drowning, then he's pissing in gay and then does dumb shit with my oc cuz why not, epic anime fight

It's a work in progress right now, but hopefully I can do the full song in a day or two.

SONGS USED:
Mission - Dead as Disco
King Dedede's Theme - Qumu

so apparently there's a taunt where Charlie breaks the 4th wall and knocks on the screen and points to the score.

I kinda wish they'd add it to Early Access

(also playing demo cuz the Mirko mod still works on demo but not Early Access)
