Meganan Starforce Legacy Collection got announced today. Any /m/ fans of the games? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KG9kEUxNOA
>>23519035Sorry but Starforce fucking sucks.
>>23519043Well maybe that's why I cum from it!
So, that just leaves Legends.
>>23519052Between Command Mission, the Gameboy games, and the Gameboy Color Games, there's still a lot left before they even think about touching Legends again with a 100 ft pole.
Tell me your opinions on the main protagonist of Star Force.
>>23519099Star Force 2 happened and I'm sorry that it did for him
>>23519085Also, Legacy Collection 2 skipped Mega Man and Bass despite it being referenced in Mega Man 9. And who knows if they'll ever rerelease the WonderSwan game. There's also Soccer, and the Monopoly. I think they may have rereleased the arcade games at some point.
>>23519035Would they include the Battle Network crossover?
>>23519043>>23519099>>23519169Star Force 3 invalids any flaws of 1 and 2. Also, the fandom fixed SF1 recently with DX, but Capcom won't make any improvements and will just port the original.
>>23519035>buying censored capcuck sloppaNo thanks.
>>23519189No Operation Shooting Star, in fact, it's a known thing for these Legacy collections to not add any side games, as>>23519085 and>>23519184 pointed out. At this point, we might as well hope for a Mega Man extra games collection, which could easily fit two volumes.
>>23519193Name (one) thing in the Battle Network Colleton that was censored, you outrage-baiting sped.
>>23519191Red Joker is so cool, the explosion sound effect on the last hit of Red Gaia Eraser is the best.
>>23519035Flop game, no one actually likes starforce.

>>235199343 was good, it was just too little too late for the series.
>>23519934>>235200871 was decent, not as good as 3; it's 2 that's the BN4 of the trilogy.
>>23520087>>23520095You can say that, but it won't change the fact that the grand majority of people don't like or don't care about it and the collection won't sell.
>no response to >>23519200I guess >>23519193 was shitposting
>>23520118Star Force has a dedicated fanbase; it might not sell as big as BN, but it'll sell fine enough.
>>23519035They really need half a year to repack some DS roms?
>>23519099Geo was fine, but boy did the writers not have any idea what to do with him after the first game. He became Lan lite by SF3, and his dynamic with Omega-Xis suffered for it.And it's a shame because I'm happy the kid cheered up. It just didn't feel like he mattered anymore, like how the latter half of BN treated Hub.
>>23520124It won't.
>>23520227Says who, you? The only thing hurting it so far is NoA's decision not to announce it in their direct, never mind Capcom still not adding crossplay to their online. But even then, its sure to sell since it's the whole series in one collection.
>>23520236>Posted this image not planned for my textAnyway, with this out, now it's time to remember the SF4 that never came to be.
>>23520236>Says whoThe fact that it still isn't liked or regarded well by the majority of people.
>>23520284That's only true for fans of classic, X, and people who wanted more BN despite the series having an ending. Only 2 weren't liked or regarded well by the majority, while 1 was enjoyed enough, and 3 were the high point, but 2 soured most people.
>>23520284>factgot proof?
>>23520236Just ignore the shitposter. I'm hyped for the collection. Starforce is great. Never thought 2 was as bad as some claim, I had a good time with it and have done multiple playthroughs.
>>23520243Surely they will make this when the collection sells a billion copies......
>>23520311I liked 2 as well, but even I have to admit it was the low point of the short-lived series. I do like the form Geo gets more than 1, and that they have a combined form, which gives off Omnimon vibes. >>23520316>He thinks Starforce fans believe this will sell more than BN, let alone expect a new SF gameThat's the last (you) you'll get out of me, love it or hate it, Starfoce deserves its moment in the spotlight.
Like or dislike the rival of Star Force?
>>23519191>Star Force 3 invalids any flaws of 1 and 2. and introduces a ton of flaws of its own
>>23520306sales numbers and user reviews
>>23520305No, it's true for starforce as well.
>>23520352>and introduces a ton of flaws of its ownSuch as?>>23520370>Starfoce fans hate their own seriesDo you even hear yourself?
>>23520367>source: dude, trust me
How's the anime?
>>23520284You're in the Mecha board, fuck the majority.Anyways, played 1 and 3 recently a few years ago and had a comfy time. Didn't really get past 2 cause every 5 steps I make I get a fight...Any song I hear from these games is an instant nostalgia and fond trip down memory lane.
>>23520375>Such as?NOISECHANGEHoly SHIT I don't how anyone tolerates SF3 when it has the most asinine Form change system where you have to go through THREE RNG checks just to pray that you even get something>Have to pray to encounter a boss enemy>Have to pray you get a new Noise form after the fight>Have to pray that the Noise form you get is the one you wantIf there's any silver lining of this getting a PC version it'll hopefully modding this bullshit out of the gameAlso they should have just made us play as Ace since he was basically the protagonist of the game. Not that he should have been, given that he is easily the blandest character in the game
>>23520375General people, BN fans, and megaman fans hate starforce.
>>23520380We have the numbers, they are freely available. It sold poorly originally and the same will happen here.
>>23520381Bad.
>>23519035>New Megaman Legacy collection dropped>look inside>Not Megaman
So picreal ended up being right regarding Star Force series?
>>23520432>Has Megaman in the title>MC is a Megaman>Not Megaman according to anonYou not accepting it does not make the games any less of a Meganan game.
>>23519035Man, they really need to put the side games somewhere. These collections are missing an egregious amount of shit at this point.>>23520476>The one that was killed before it could finishAnon, that is at least three of those sub-series.
>>23520629X, Legends and? Iirc that edit was made before the Starforce 4 concept came out.
>>23521213>X, Legends and?ZX
>>23521257But ZX was the one that's originally mentioned in the pic. And since X leads to Zero, you can argue that it wasn't killed off like ZX or, more importantly, Legends, since that was going to be made.
>>23520397I'm a BN fan and SF3 redeemed the series for me. If it'd played like that from the start I'd love it.>>23520386The whole point was Geo surpassing Ace which was pretty cool.
Why was SF2 bad?
>>23520345I feel nothing towards him. He's just such a stock "we needed a rival/dark hero character". He's really poor, when a lot of the other characters have way more going on.
>>23519035On the fence about this because SF3 was the only good one.
>>23521313At least he gets a cool sword, and Rouge Nose is the best-looking form. >>23521325I think 1 was good and 2 is at least playable, even if it's the worst.
>>23520345Absolutely forgettable
>>23520629The list of side games is pretty big, which might even fit 3 volumes.List of games that came to the West:>Megaman World I-V, Mega Man & Bass, Mega Man Soccer, Mega Man: The Wily Wars, Mega Man: Battle & Chase, Mega Man: The Power Battle, Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters, Mega Man Xtreme 1&2, Mega Man X: Command Mission, Mega Man Battle Chip Challenge, Mega Man Network Transmission, Mega Man Battle Network 5: Double Team DS, Mega Man Powered Up and Mega Man Maverick Hunter X And these don't count the games that got fan translation or Meganan X Street Fighter, since that started as a free fan game. And the Game Boy Megaman games are notoriously known to almost have a collection before they got released digitally, and having improved versions made by the community.
>>23519035I love the character designs, but I never played the Starforce games because I always saw the battle mechanics as watered down, compared to the Battle Network games. I guess this is a good excuse to go through them – by dusting off a DS emulator and getting ROMs for the three games.You ain't getting another cent from me, Capcom. Not after killing Legends 3 like that.
>>23521568grab the starforce DX hack it includes all the exclusive content from the other versions in one version and improves on some things
>>23520397General opinion changed by Star Force 3, but the series was already on the chopping block by then. These days Star Force is looked at more fondly, and I've seen a lot of people happy about it in English and Japanese social media, it's not like ZX where the fan base is so small that no one really cared about their inclusion in the Zero collection, people were just happy to have the Zero games.
>>23521291Boring plot about ooparts and the land of Mu, very over done in Japanese media and it doesn't really progress the plot much, and if your a Soniafag it gives you her most retarded moment in the series. Also a decent amount of the game is backtracking around the same like 4 areas. People complain about the encounter rate but I never had much of an issue with it.
>>23522077Nah, it's still very negative.
>>23522122You have a single fact to back that up? Unless you actually get off your ass and somehow post conclusive evidence that people hate starforce THAT much you're going to just be another discord tranny shitting the place up.
>>23522149The fact that is was in the JP only segment of the direct where they throw weird games that they know won't sell. The fact that general sentiment hasn't actually changed. You can like it all you want, but you have to accept that you are a minority in that regard.
>>235212911. Like BN4 it was a bunch idiotic plots so to force fights. No good character moments like 1 and 32. Fucking Rogue. He's gotta be the absolute worst attempt at the edgelord rival who's a total asshole and constantly spouting about how friendship is lame and never learns or changes his tune no matter how many times the hero kicks his ass. The game even makes it a point and throws in his face of exactly how society of edgelords that hate and want nothing to do with anyone else would go (badly, the whole thing would collapse) and he still just ignores it. It almost comes off like a parody of the trope and it might be because half the reason he exists were people bitching that SF1 didn't give Mega a Protoman/Bass style chuuni rival and some think the team deliberate did an asshole take on it as a result
>>23521568The MMBN collection was one of two HD remasters I've bought. The other was the .hack//GU one. MMBN re-added some stuff that was missing from the American releases and has working online.I'm presuming the Star Force collection will be the same way. It's a shame that they didn't include the two DS BN games in either of the collections. But, I love Star Force. The second game is sorta whatever, but the first and third ones are very good.
>>23519099>>23519035I liked the different megaman varieties but other than that the star force games were all really meh.
>>23522183>The fact that is was in the JP only segment of the direct where they throw weird games that they know won't sell.That's more Nintendo's lack of faith than Capcom, everyone agreed that not airing it in the NA Direct was a blunder on their part.
>>23519035I don't like how this game is entirely built around counters. Back in MMBN it exist so vanilla mega can compete with soul unison combos, but you straight up can't play the game optimally without countering in SF. Yes, I know I can just use vulcan and other multi hit chips, but I simply never liked that kind of mechanics to begin with.
>>23522232>It's a shame that they didn't include the two DS BN games in either of the collections.My guess is they wanted to focus on the gba originals, but again, just on this list alone >>23521541 they could fit three volumes on the Legacy collection side games.
>>23522246By everyone you mean the three people that like starforce. The rest don't care.
>>23522285>The rest don't careMore like you don't care since most of the fandom like more Megaman even if Starfoce isn't their favorite.
>>23522290Starforce isn't Megaman so they don't care either
>>23519035I feel like it made so many sacrifices in the name of trying to be a tech demo of DS technology with things like that garbage garbage mini-game and how shifting the fights onto a 3D axis only served to make them feel more lame because there's way more limitations on how combat is designed.Also the more explicit superhero tone didn't really do it for me. Part of the world building I liked in Battle Network was how ubiquitous NetNavis were so the equivalents in SF being only for certain characters and of them usually it's only temporary I didn't like. And weirdly despite the obvious path into Star Force being "kid who played BN -> continues to Star Force" I got the an impression the overall tone was aimed at kids who were slightly younger than the target demographic of BN which was weird.
>>23522292So, you just wanted to shitpost in the and claim the majority don't care for a Megaman series getting a collection. You have to go back with your Not Muh Megaman since you're only a small minority spouting that everyone hates Starforce.
>>23522278Yeah, but there's no reason to not just shove them into the Star Force collection. Twin Leaders especially so, since it at least was officially translated. It's like my one gripe with the BN Collection. Twin Leaders is objectively the best way to play 5.
>>23522312>I feel like it made so many sacrifices in the name of trying to be a tech demo of DS technologyAnd despite that, the actual tech demo that was Legends 3 is kept in lock and key, never to be played by the public because Capcom likely wants to spite Inafune rather than allow the fandom to try out what could've been.
>>23522320Because to Capcom, they want any spin-offs or remakes to not be included for whatever reason.
>>23522327Even during that big Capcom hack a few years back, they didn't snag the Legends 3 demo. I'd love to play it.
>>23522312Despite being hundreds of years into the future, it felt like a downgrade
>>23522337It was. For me, the characters and plot carried the game pretty hard. Geo being so isolated and abrasive was a nice change of pace. Luna was cute and she should've been pushed a little more instead of Sonia.
>>23522327The more I learn about Inafune the more I realize spiting him is the right choice.
>>23522394And here I thought you were going to post the time that one producer at IntiCreates got drunk on a livestream and admitted they were working on a ZX3 until Inafune showed up and said "FUCK THAT SHIT WE'RE MAKING MEGAMAN 2 AGAIN"
>>23522312Play Starforce 3.
>>23522550people always say "oh starforce 3 fixed it" but the fundamentals never changed, it just got style change and program advancethey put a lot of improvements that's for sure but they don't really change my opinion on it
>>23522451Oh fuck off Inafune.
>>23522564>the fundamentals never changed>Part of the world building I liked in Battle Network was how ubiquitous NetNavis were so the equivalents in SF being only for certain characters and of them usually it's only temporary I didn't likeThat changed in SF3. You didn't play the game.
>>23522122>>23522183Your personal vendetta against the series aside it's obvious they haven't started work on the English version yet which is why it wasn't in the Direct and why we don't have a single screenshot of it in English. If the game was as insignificant as you pretend it is it would have been in the JP sizzle reel instead of headlining it's own segment.
>>23522627i'm not that person and my grievance is different, that was more of a general statement
>>23522776*also regarding the wizard it's still a weird worldbuilding because they went from removing netnavis and then adding it back
>>23519035The only thing I know about these is the blonde chick has a bunch of great doujins.
>>23522316Megaman fans like robots. Starforce does not have robots, they do not like Starforce.
>>23520397got a source?
>guy claims that people don't like starforce>never provides ANY evidence that it's hated when askedI guess we can safely ignore false claims of "people hate Starforce"
>>23523092Shitposting won't change the fact that most people either hate it or don't care about it.
>>23523092>ignores the low sales numbersYeah, totally.
>low sales numbers mean people hated StarforceThen I guess BN4 was the best Battle Network since it has the highest sales in the franchise. >>23522994So, by your logic, Megaman fans also do not like Battle Network since it also doesn't have robots.
>>23523260As I said, he's most likely a discord troon.
>>23522776>>23522779Yeah so you had no business replying to me when I was pointing out SF3 directly addressed his grievance with the tone>it's still a weird worldbuildingSo what? Course correction is a good thing.
>>23523313i've seen more discord troons like bn/sf than actual classic megaman
>>23523345Then you need to get out more.
>>23523354you're the one making the discord troon claim, that also means that you need to go out more.
>>23522909>The only thing I know about these is the blonde chick has a bunch of great doujins.You have to give credit when a porn artist favors one Megaman waifu and pumps out new content.
>>23523345you would know because you are one it seems>>23522994What happened to these "fans" during ZX and ZXA? Plenty of robots there yet they have the lowest sales in the franchise.
>>23524125>ZX and ZXANot megaman, the characters are only cosplaying.
>>23523316Because I've seen that reply way too much when people say they don't like starforce
>>23524125Nobody even heard of the zero series that's why
>>23524185Maybe you should consider context before spazzing out next time
>>23523100you claim low sales numbers but you have never posted ANY of them
>>23519035So, uh... Nobody wanna talk about Heartless's positioning in the Legacy Collection cover art being a major spoiler for Star Force 3?
>>23524403how so
>>23524412Yeah, Heartless... was never a villain to begin with. In fact, she's a major wrench against Dealer's plans, and is a family friend of Geo's he never knew he had.
>>23524420so it's a spoiler if ykyk and nothing if you don't
>>23524403>>23524420It's not a spoiler because her being on the villain's side is something you expect to see, so it's only a spoiler if she's on the good guy's side. Either way, mature women are one of the strong points of Starforce, even if the average anon focus on Luna and Soina.
>>23519035platz porn es bueno
>>23522587
So Star Force, Tribe On or Noise Change?
>>23524921Noise Change, definitely. On that note, Virgo Noise is the best because Freeze Break combos are the coolest thing.
>>23520476I'm thinking BN is more like Wing or G Gundam
>>23525003BN is Doozybots.
>>23524921Noise Change.I love Black Ace.
