I feel like this game's only flaw was the Launch Octopus boss, his weakness weapon is terrible against him because he has a huge arsenal of missiles to stop you from hitting him and if you want to cut off his tentacles with the boomerang you need to defeat a boss who's weakness is the weapon you get FROM the Launch Octopus, I don't really know what they were thinking here.
They were thinking: ludo...
>>12586473He's not called THE Launch Octopus. His name is Launch Octopus.
>>12586494Don't you think THE Launch Octopus sounds more intimidating, though?
Everyone knows that the cardinal sin of the game is forcing you to play Chill Pinguin first for the dash
>>12586498Nah sounds corny.
>>12586516Chill Penguin first is good though, he freezes the lava in the mammoth stage.
>>12586524Thats kinda why it sucks, though. The majority of people never actually see Flame Mammoth's stage with its intended hazards, and some people get confused why its even supposed to be fire themed in the first place if they don't understand the stage variation mechanic. Its a really cool mechanic, its just kinda lame you never see it in action there unless you purposely don't take the dash boots first. Or just get the boots and die on purpose to go back to stage select and change order. None of the platformer Megaman series games should ever have an objectively correct boss order, just shades of difficulty based on where you start.
>>12586473>I don't really know what they were thinking here.They were thinking "fuck those faggots that use cheese weapons on every boss" >>12586498>>12586494reminds me of a MGS code name
already a MMX thread up
>>12588804Fuck you
>>12588804>STOP DISCUSSING VIDEO GAMES!!!
>>12586473The only issue I had with the game was the final boss, which was way too hard. I nearly gave up before finally beating it, and now when I think of playing the game again I just remember that fight and decide to play something else.
>>12588821It's not that hard, just get all the sub tanks and hearts, as you're climbing the wall to the first boss you can just destroy all these worms coming out the wall to refill your energy and sub tanks after every death. If it's REALLY that bad, just get the hadoken and you kill the dog and sigma instantly making the final phase of the fight much more easy.
>>12586516>>12586565Use a password so that you have the dash before playing any stages
>>12586516>forcing>he's never played a Penguin-last runSweaty, I...
>>12586565Hence the PSP Remake is superior
>>12586473The flaw is the game is too easy, full of slowdown, the level design is boring, too much emphasis is put on the stupid hidden items, the HP drops are too random, the subweapons largely lack identity and usecase, and there is no way to disable dashing on double tapping a direction (DESPITE A DEDICATED BUTTON) which fucks the movement.I just wonder, have people who suck Mega Man X off never played a proper action game? Any Metal Slug is better, almost any Contra is better, almost any Castlevania is better, the Zero games are better, 3 and 4 on the NES are better, the Shinobi games are better, Zelda is better, RKA is better, Dynamite Headdy is better, Gunstar Heroes is better, Kirby is better. Mega Man X is just so overrated.
