An Unhinged Review of the Mega Man Legends Series

ah yes, goopless at last
Today we're looking at Mega Man Legends, The Misadventures of Tron Bonne, and Legends 2 - talking design, 'avin a giggle, not dredging up the third game, keeping it real. I've been dealing with too many heavy projects and I needed something lighter for the warmer days, connect with the roots, you know?
I'm gonna pre-empt any "will you cover the other mega man subseries" with yeah, I would, but I don't know how much interest there is and video views are my best indicator, so feel free to curse your groupchat with my shrieking.
Idk I think too many people complain about controls in games in general. Thing feels fine - like there's an adjustment period, but it works. And for putting up with it, you get this positive, dramatic PS1 classic that really bleeds personality. A lot of games struggle with this - not Capcom's stuff, mind, but in general Legends does a great job of roping players and fans in with raw charm. I'm not about to join the legends discord, but I recommend trying out the first at least.

Toronto's voice talent was in countless cartoons from X-Men TAS to Total Drama, even a handful of anime dubs like Sailor Moon, Spider Riders, Beyblade, Bakugan and Medabots.

Absolutely agree on the dungeon design problem. MML1's dungeon felt REAL because it was one big interconnected nightmare. Breaking it up got rid of a lot of the charm.

@elenavaleria9943 2 жыл бұрын

But the interconected dungeons wouldn't work in Legends 2 since we explore diferent islands. Having one big interconected undeground structure on the psone would have several limitations because of the hardware, and it would make the world feel small because of it. So it made sense of each island to have their own ruin structure (the sub gates are more neutral in design compared to the main ones and resemble the ones in 1 more) and since we needed specific ones for finding the keys, having them more varied in theme was a nice touch. I personaly like what they tried to do in 2, but they played their cards with the story to early. 2 should have just set up the mistery so 3 could deliver the answers. The way they did the story made it very hard for making a sequel like Kbash said. There's still things unresolved, but since they spilled the main lore details in the end I don't know how to top that lol

it's part of the genius of the timelessness of the games. rather than go for as realistic as possible, they decided to stick to an artstyle, and physically draw the faces on top of the models, so that they can make them look good from any angle and have the expressiveness they want. it's such an untapped goldmine of design i'm just waiting for the boomer gamers to quit with their crappy ps1 graphics nostalgia and start mimicking the GOOD ps1 graphics.

We have Timeline 1 where from X7 we jump to Zero and Timeline 2 where from X7 we go to Command Mission and then X8 (we don't go to Zero here).

The second you start picking servbots with dedicated combat stats and using them to stun enemies, the hippul bot goes down easy.

Mega Man Legends (I had the '64' version specifically) is such a nostalgic title for me. When I was a kid, the only console I had access to for a long time was the N64. I was, perhaps, vaguely aware that Mega Man existed as a franchise outside of this one title, but to me as a kid Mega Man Legends was *the* Mega Man game. It was what Mega Man was all about. I loved playing it, but I never beat it. Exploring the old robot ruins underground was very scary for me as a kid, so instead I liked to hang out in the city and market area. I remember being endlessly amused by kicking the can up and down the hall, and watching the dog run around. That one little area is probably one of the coziest places in gaming to me. It seems silly looking back on all that as an adult, but perhaps I have something to learn from my childhood self about how the small things in life are often the most beautiful.

I had never played a game so "cinematic" at the time, it felt like an adventure. I remember watching Legends 3 get announced and I was so happy, but that entire project was iffy from the start. When they cancelled it, it dealt a serious blow to how I view Capcom, and made me really realize how dead in the water Mega Man was as a series.

2:08 for anyone who doesn't know, you can change the controls so you can turn around with the control stick/d-pad instead of L and R, which is much easier and more intuitive IMO.

I thought I'd mention Battle Network and Starforce as they are probably the closest you are going to get within the Mega Man franchise to Mega Man Legends, being more exploration-based, having a longform storytelling, RPG elements, etc. Having said that Legends is definitely completely unique and if you are looking for exactly the same experience, alas, humanity has been deprived of basking in more of its glory.

Megaman Legends is so charming. Love the art style. And in the age where being able to just freely explore a 3D space was so much fun and made your childhood imagination soar, Legends' richly populated city (especially for the time) was leaps and bounds over any other game. The controls were stiff, but most 3D games were. Tomb Raider was far more stiff, but just exploring Lara's mansion was the most fun thing in every installment. Legends had that same spirit throughout most of the game with tons of charming characters to interact with. Games like Mario 64 controllee better, sure, but back then that didn't matter. The freedom and world detail for the time alone made Legends stand out above the others. The fun story and neat gameplay loop was a bonus to a little kid like me. Not everything holds up, but a good bit does. Love these games.

It was extremely weird in a way that was almost disturbing. Think of mml like ocarina of time and mml2 sort of becomes almost Majora's mask like towards the end. Of course the rest of the game is pretty silly and all so maybe the ending would feel jarring but I really liked that feeling especially playing it as a kid in the 90s when it came out. As far as the misadventures of Tron bonne, um. It was more or less just what you said. It tried but got boring real fast.

This was my first PS1 game and still love it to this day. Surprised he didn't mention the Servbots legacy of cameos in other games. I actually just bought a plush of one (with magnetic curry plate) and it arrived this morning fittingly enough.

Man, I'm really glad you enjoyed the Legends series. It's an imperative part of not just my sensibilities as a gamer, but me as a person as well. Megaman Legends (very unimaginatively renamed Megaman 64 on the N64 which was the rendition I played growing up until I purchased the PS1 original in my early adulthood) was the very first Megaman game I ever played and needless to say, I was hooked on the franchise from then onward. I remember how excited I got when I checked your Twitter feed and saw you were working on covering these games. They catch so much flack and are so often chastised for their clunky controls and are subsequently written off as bad for that alone, it's fuckin criminal. These games are special for many reasons to the fanbase and for GOOD reason. I admittedly thought 2 was a bit of a letdown given the impact that Legends 1 had on me, but still definitely worth the romp, if only once. Great video man, love your content so much. By the way, happy belated birthday dude. I hope you had an awesome day and I can't wait for your next upload. Cheers, bro.

It was a localization error. In japanese it's Tron-bone but when they brought it over They misread it as Tron-bon and it stuck.

A friend sent me this video simply because I love Dash/Legends a LOT. Thank you for the review! It was fun! Though I like Legends 2 a LOT more than you. I felt like it was a major improvement. And yes, my real name is Juno and as a child, I got obsessed with him. I would recite all his lines by heart. I later played in Japanese (my second language) on the PSP and learned his lines in Japanese, too. Lol

I had the N64 version as a kid and it was really good! I remember I was actually afraid of the reaver bots and ended up just wondering around the cities. Also if you didn’t know, at the part where you stop the pirates from stealing a bunch of money, you can actually steal the money yourself and mega man will get a ton of negative karma and his suit will turn black. I did this always as a kid cause I just thought the black color was cooler without actually realizing the implications. Btw the music has the most pleasant bops around, with the dungeon themes being straight up bangers sometimes!

A nice video but just to put it out here Megaman legends is not an alternate universe like battle network or starforce The timeline goes from Main universe: Classic - X - Zero - Zx - Legends (An alt timeline after mmx7 that leads to Command mission) Alt universe Battle Network - Star force

Most megaman games are in the same universe. They aren't "alternaverses", they're just in different time periods. It goes as follows Classic Series ➡ X ➡ ZX ➡ Legends. The Battle Network and Star Force are apparently in another universe.

You have no idea how many hours of my childhood I spent playing these three games. I was absolutely obsessed with them. The lore, visuals, story, combat, humour, drama, just absolutely everything about them clicked with me in a way most platformer JRPG's simply didn't. Even Ocarina of Time and Pokemon didn't possess the things that these games did, and somehow they stood the test of time in my heart. i still play the other games, but this one will never get tiring for me.
