Are you playing any Mega Man? I’m about to start picking related. What will I think of it?
I'll probably do my monthly replay through mega man 9 tonight
>>729596916I'm gonna do a entire series Mega Man marathon leading up until Star force legacy collection releases.
>>729596916Playing through BN1 atm. Just cleared the Elec Man/Proto Man fight and getting ready to explore for more chips.
>>729596916Opinion: Maverick Hunter X is actually a good remake of the OG Megaman X. Biggest change for the plus is changing the boss order so that Vile is the 2nd to last boss you fight. Makes it all even more dramatic as X's emotions (especially RAGE) towards Sigma after Zero's "death" feels more impactful.
>>729596916Going through Legacy Collection. First time I played originals in 20ish years. Holy shit I suck
>>729597964 Based. That’s the proper way to get in the zone before Star Force LC hits. Are you doing classic X Zero ZX Legends BN Star Force in order, or grouping by continuity? Don’t forget that MM & Bass fits weirdly between 8 and 9, and try not to burn out during X6 unless you’re a masochist. Reset your brain with a Legends or Battle Network game when you need a breather.
>>729596916Replaying X, this time with a retranslation patch
>>729596916Doesn't have nearly the amount of content as Powered Up, and is mostly just worth it for Vile mode, but it's still a pretty good game on its ownMaybe not a good remake, but a good game
>>729597850based 9 chad. favorite robot master?
>>729596916I remember playing this a shit ton, especially the Vile campaign.
Hi-Go released something good.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T58ZoidA874
>>729596916Insane how they made this and didn't continue remaking the other ones, the concept behind this and powered up is how all remakes should be approached
>>729599694NTA but they’re all good. I really don’t like 9’s Wily Castle but all the robot master stages are really well designed.
>>729600178what's this? first time seeing it, seems pretty cool
>>729596916Going to try out the battle network series since I heard good things about it as a deckbuilder
So not memeing, if you call me a fag at least make it funny. Megaman is one of those series that I've loved from a distance. I've played the Battle Network games religiously. I learned most of the lore. But as far as actual mainline games, I've only only really played 1, 2, 9, and 10 of the classic series, MHX and X5 in the X series, and Zeros 1 and 2 in the Zero series. Tl;dr: I'm a secondary. But I still really like Megaman or at least the Megaman that exists in my mind. So I feel I need to amend this. Next month I'll be getting a bit of free time and I think I wanna spend it knocking off a few Megaman titles. Especially since Megaman is getting a new entry. The question is: where do I even start? Classic on up? I know X and Legends are kind of hanging on endings. Zero has a definitive ending and I have the Zero Collection already. Basically I'm hoping you guys can help my choice paralysis
Hi,levi.
Beat BN1 yesterday. Barebones and tedious at times but I really liked the battle system. What can I expect from BN2?
>>729600960You've already played a lot of games, just pick whatever you're interested in. You can make your own decisions anon, you don't need strange to micro manage your life. The only games that are best playing in order are the Zero games, all the others don't matter, the X games' story are just foot notes for each one so it doesn't really matter.
>>729599564SNES rearrangedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKrJuSLCb3U
>>729601323Imagine if BN 1 was good until the worst part imaginable happens.
>>729596916Played mmx1 for the first time last night. Extremely tightly designed, no wasted space in the gameplay. Felt kind of weird because the industry has obviously moved on from game design like that. Some of the bosses were very tricky, and sigmas final form was bullshit because I couldn’t get up on the hand platforms for the life of meI can see why people hold it in such high regard, but it does have a few flaws due to its age like chill penguin being the no brainer first boss, level changes based on bosses beaten feeling half baked, the level 2 buster and sub weapon charging coming in at the end and being kinda useless, and some of the level design is overly simplistic, zero being useless, the spider boss, some level “gimmicks” were very bland, and the graphics honestly were mid at best. Launch octopus is also bullshit without his weakness.Overall, it definitely feels like capcom’s A-team at the time worked on it. That being said, it still feels like it was unfinished. It was almost too tightly designed. But if I played it as a kid back when it was new, I’m sure I’d be like one of the boomers nowadays who say it’s one of their favorite games
Maverick Hunter X is garbage.
>>729600178>the artists was involved in 2017 X1 novelization>Capcom hasn’t make X9 yet
>>729601323It’s much better… up until a certain point where you start appreciating the first game a lot more.
I wish Maverick Hunter X had gotten a sequel. Not a remake of X2, but a full Vile game that fleshes out the weapon system further.
Powered Up and Maverick Hunter X should rerelease on Nintendo 3DS and Switch lite
I've never played mega man before. Is playing the legacy collection on the 3ds a good start? I think the robots are very cute, especially the snake, so I want to give the series a try.
Is corrupted out yet...
>>729605801The sun hasn't burnt out yet so no.
>>729600181I've posted this several times but Maverick Hunter was FUCKED because X1 is a damn near perfect game. Or at least pretty high up there. There was no way to remake it without it feeling unnecessary, but at least Vile Mode was a whole lotta fun.That said, if there was any series that needed it, the X Series getting a revamp from the ground up would have massively improved it from 2 onwards. It's unfair that we'll never see Maverick Hunter X2-7.
>>729605496The first 8 games aren't at all difficult to emulate, but if you REALLY want to play on your 3DS then it's fine.
>>729601323A much better experience, but I will say this, there's a backtracking section near the end of the main story that's just ASS.
>>729606070A save system and widescreen were all it needed. Everything else, especially the music and balance changes were superfluous.
>>729606070Reimagined AAA X7? Capcom hate money.
>>729596916I started playing X today. My first ever Mega Man and I'm getting filtered by the first boss(?). That spaceship that throws cars at me
>>729606070The first one sucked and if the rest stayed on the PSP it's likely they would have been worse than the originals too.
>>729596916>Are you playing any Mega Man?11. It's fun because I do not know any boss' weakness.
>>729601095
>>729596916I’ve never played Zero but I’ve heard the difficulty is complete BS and you have to grind a shit ton?Does anyone have any opinions? I’ve seen there’s romhacks available, not sure if they’d be the best way to play
What's the context for this pic? Did I miss a game where Vile has chronic depression?
>>729608328The difficulty isn't really BS, the enemy placement and the fact that they aggro onto you from off screen, giving you 3 frames to react if you're using the dash button at all or sometimes even walking is BS. No rom hack will fix that and this sort of shit happens until ZXA. It's just terrible traditional Inticreates game design.
>>729608490No. He's just drawn at a bar a lot so people just kinda jump there.
>>729608603Ah.
>>729608490They keep bringing him back so he's begging for death.
>>729596916>What will I think of it?>XIt's Mega Man X at the end of the day. You can't mess that up (ios port notwithstanding). It has a charm of it's own. It's certainly more 'anime' than it's snes counterpart, but you'll like it at the end of the time. A nice tribute if you like the plot and setting of the games.>Vile ModeThe single most based game mode ever made in a Mega Man game and you will wish X9 has Vile Mode.
>>729607004Sounds like my first time. Just shoot the cars to progress.
>>729609131MHX absolutely fucked X1 dude.
>>729609131>you will wish X9 has Vile Mode.No, I will not. Vile is a boring fucking character and his gameplay is just as boring as he is.
>>729600960If you like BN why not try Star Force? They are rather similar. Unless you are waiting for the Collection, in which case I'd just tackle the remaining Classic games that you've left. You will finish with MM11, which is arguably one of the best games of the bunch.
>>729596916he ded
I will never forgive Inafune for making his OC donut steel steal the spotlight from X then turn him into a villain in the sequel series until he was stopped by his team.
>>729596916>ugly 3D handheld graphics over glorious 2Dfoul
>>729608490Mac & Cheese (yes, green bikers dude name)
>>729610775>turn him into a villain in the sequel series until he was stopped by his team.That never happened.
>>729605801He streamed the game on Christmas and didn't leave the vods uphttps://youtu.be/9mVeu5Ku3Ichttps://youtu.be/ge9LgsIidRo
>>729611280>12/31/20>the end is in sightIt never stops being funny.
>>729598438I never played the original and I thought MHX was amazing
>>729601762>>729604346>>729606156Ah ok gotcha
>>729598438I honestly enjoyed playing as Vile as well. A refreshing change of pace for a very well done remake that left a lot of its original soul intact.
Megaman X died because of their time. Back then people were thirsty of le high graphic fidelity open world games.
>>729611280Hope Capcom dm his account
>>729611149he wanted the last boss in zero to be the real x but the team turned him into copy x shortly before release
>>729598438I didn’t like X shouting the weapon names
>>729596916Just bought the Battle Network Collection on Switch ($20 for the physical cart and all the games was too good of an offer to ignore). I personally don't care much for BN outside of the gameplay, but I figured a BN game would be a fun option to play in Japanese.
>>729598438Yeah it’s kinoSo is the OVA they included X and Zero are hot bloodedThe series found its aesthetic in X4
I hate that I got the collection because I'm basically paying a tax to swap between japanese and English text
>>729596916Thank you for reminding me I need to finish Mega Man 4
>>729596916way easier than the og, i beat it in one sitting
Been binging Mega Man Victory. Made a tier list in my free time. https://youtu.be/revzWBCuEdA
>>729613223>a very well done remake that left a lot of its original soul intactMHX is the opposite of that.
Mega MenMega Women
>>729600385Fan web novel after trying to make fangame and failing. Think corrupted but with something more than twitch videos.
>>729617356Not that anon but...BULLSHIT.
Super Fighting Mega Futanari
WHAT KILLED THE DINOSAURS?FREEZE CRACKER
>>729608032Based. Same
>>729621671Feels like Wolverine...then again Sigma had a Wolverine phase.
>>729620886For me is Centaur Woman
>>729609037They killed him again in X8.
>>729618752 That actually sounds kind of sick desu. There’s a ton of fan projects that fizzled out but live on as novels or weird ARG-lore dumps. If it’s got some meat beyond just "lol Sigma goes evil again", I’m in. Got a link or is this one of those "you had to be there" Geocities-tier relics?
My favorite Mega Men are Legends and Battle Network. I look forward to the inevitable Legends collection re-release, even though I won't buy it.
>>729625250It's just Ciel fighting as a Zero replacement and Neo Arcadia returning under new management.
>>729611280hope they get a cease and desist before completing it
I'm replaying Classic for the first time in 20 years.It's better than I remember.
>>729596916I replay the classic series every year for my birthday. at least 1 - 6. I used to replay x1 and x3 (x2 is lame) often but not as much anymore. x4 i played the SHIT out of when I was in high school. Wish we could have gotten some more x games after x4 for, but sadly that was where the series ended. I never played Maverick hunter X but I wanted to. Too bad it's stuck on the psp but i could just emulate it i suppose.
>>729600960You may as well play whatever you wanna. Knock out all of Classic, it'll take a weekend or two at most.
>>729602145You get the L2 buster if you find the arm parts, Zero gives you the upgrade if you miss it.
>>729599564is there a retranslation of x2? cause that game had a retarded script
>>729626816Yes. Check romhacking
>>729616860the BEST NES Mega Man
>>729620886why are they cowards and only gave us ONE female robot master
>>729626894nice. The ending dialogue is retard "Hello X. I have some one here that wants to meet you. Hes not too happy with you he he he"
>>729627184>Girls have cooties>-Keiji Inafune
>>729618752Project RCL hasn’t found decent programmers and Genesis ZX in rocky limbo development.
>>729596916Great game. Love the 2.5D low poly graphics. Best played on an actual PSP with a UMD for maximum soul.
>>729628404Mini guide if you feel like it.
>>729628513
>>729626687>Hates X2Shame you've got terminal shit taste.
>>729628621Hope Capcoms plans with Mega-Man includes Maverick Hunter X2
>>729627289tbf Splashwo only managed to be snuck in because Inti was working on it. Otherwise Inafune would've probably struck it down.
>>729628741
>>729628885
>>729628928Fuck, forgot spoiler.
>>729628981Last one. Have fun and Good night.
>>729628741MHX is a PSP game from 2005.It would be way more likely for them to start remaking from the start with X1 again.
>>729629143Thats very likely if the decided that and I think they should.I know remakes are annoying as hell right now, mostly because theyre remakes of 5 year old games, but what bothers me with these "Megaman collections" and "Sonic Mega Collections" is that theyre repackages of 20+ year old games that have been bundled since 6th gen. They should go ahead and redo these games so they can be repackaged for another 20+ years.
>>729625790>replaced for Zero analoguesThey could copy death and return of superman plot
>>729629143They could use the chance to try and fix the plot. The ideas are good up to X6 at least, stuff like introducing characters/concepts early could help with that.
>>729621671Worst fight in the entire classic series. He sucks so hard.
>>729629658Did I miss an attack phase? It was really easy to stun and go under his wall bounces. In fact the front half of 7 is really easy as well.
>>729598438I prefer the original but widescreen and getting to play as Vile alone makes it worth a playthrough.
>>729629658Turbo man is worse and he's in the same game
>>729629865He's horribly tedious if you're trying to go buster only, and there's way too much RNG in his fight with the falling eggs.
>>729629535They just robo her ass.
>>729629916https://youtu.be/rHPjQCnRQsk?si=DQIYk-mAkBFlfPV4&t=217>Turbo man is wor-ACK
what is the best mega man game for a non mega man enjoyer?
>>729629536It's not like the plot is all over the place to warrant it.
>>72963014211 is probably the easiest to get into
>>729630090She work for that ass.
>>729630468She cheated a whole civilization.
>>729630510A new world order.
>>729601323The same game, but better in literally every way. It really transforms a 5/10 into a 10/10>all those replies about the backtracking sectionIt's not bad. It's kino, in fact. I loved it as a kid. Way better than the shitty ass power plant in BN1
>>729627289
>>729631254Cute, cute, cute, cute, cute, and cute.
I hope they re-remake the X franchise again and fix the story, make Command Mission canon, cement in stone that Megaman Zero is an alternate universeAlso keep Sigma as the villain forever I love how he's just a fucking asshole and his design is cool as fuck
>>729631664Is Iris going to appear earlier in the new comic?
>playing XDive offline>so many events are [Japanese Culture: Event!]Wait a minute, this is just Rockman: Upon a Star!
>>729631664The waifu tax on this is insane
>>729631664CM is canon but it's a sidestory in the X series.
>>729632606>Atomic Marshmallow Ladies
>>729631750No. It's just the X1 story.
>>729632249It's an asian game.
>>729627289yet he forced Capcom to give Roll visible upskirt in MvC. he's just a man of taste
>>729631664>Also keep Sigma as the villainI love the guy (and his design), but he should've stayed dead after X3.
>>729633690T-then who would have prepared us to become space dust?
>>729632884You got girls with ass, titties, waists and hips >>729631254. Fat reploids aren't outside the realm.

>>729626894The font looks different. Is that a separate hack?
>>729626687>x2 is lameBased.
>>729633690That's like killing off Wiley, Bowser, or Dracula: retarded.
>>729598438You're making me want to play it again. Ah fuck it.
