it's tough to review this """game""" since its fundamental proposal is to be an ever-evolving platform, so, everything I'm writing (2022/14/09) could not be true in a couple of months.
I'm a massive fan of the Rocksmith series of ""games"" (calling it a game it's very debatable, but let's not worry about this). The main idea of Rocksmith+ seems to be the right path for this sort of experience, a way they could keep updating the game, adding new songs, and adding new tutorials, without having to do a whole another $60 release.
However, in the current state, the game is VERY lackluster. They advertise as having more than 9000 songs, but the majority of them come in the form of Chord Charts or Bass Charts, which is basically showing the chords for the song, something you can EASILY find on the internet for free. The main value of Rocksmith as a whole is when the songs are arranged to match exactly what's being played, and currently, in the game, there are LESS THAN 1000 songs like that.
Rocksmith+ has a LOT of potential with the Live Service model to constantly improve the song list and also with community-created arrangements, but looking at the list of songs with real arrangments done, it seems like they're doing it in the wrong way.
