Was gonna say. Yeah those moves are super effective against those bosses. You worded it the other way around. Although it's backwards, it still puts the relevant info at least close to where it needs to be. Boss by weapon weakness. And these games got crazy with the weaknesses. I blame the Spark Mandrill fight. That fight went from challenging to a joke with the right weapon. It's been dubbed on the internet at Spark Mandrill syndrome when it happens with later bosses. Which is nearly all of them by like game 3 or 4. The first two X games kept it in check most of the time. But after that they just ruined the challenge of any boss fight by making their weakness weapon just stun or stop them completely. As much fun as the games are, I still to this day only use the weakness weapons during the gauntlet at the end. Because otherwise the whole thing is just too damn easy.

Huh, I wonder if the other Zero sprites were from when he was a playable character? Even when you get to use him some in X3 and finally as a playable character in X4, his abilities he learns (sword techniques in X4) don't change his palate. Must be a different thing in Wiley vs Light models. Though Zero IS surprisingly variable for a Wiley built robot. ...though I've never heard the Wiley died in MM3 and Zero was a robot body theory.
@Josuh2 жыл бұрын
Zero has his own Learning System that's slightly different from X's Variable Weapons System, he learns his techniques for his saber and himself, unlike X who is more straightforward and uses boss' attacks directly and has access to armors for movement and stuff, it's very neat (hopefully i explained that right)

I think it was largely Capcom’s fault that Maverick Hunter X didn’t sell that well. As it was a PSP exclusive. They didn’t bother to port it and Mega Man Powered up to other consoles And they had plans to remake 2-6 next with plans for an OVA for each game which were scrapped because the sales due to it being a PSP exclusive, I don’t know who allowed such a moronic decision, but I’m sure any sensible person would understand that when there is a large demand for mega man outside of PSP why not actually give them a port to play? I’m sure Maverick Hunter X and Mega Man Powered up if they bundled it would’ve sold very well if it got a release on an Xbox, PlayStation home console, or the Wii

The jump to 16 bit consoles was a grand outing for the blue bomber, but you know what really didn’t impress me? His Life Bar! Consider this; if X is meant to be the ultimate form of Mega man , how is his life bar such a flog?! Hear me out- the game requirements needed hidden loot to find, it makes it a more interesting experience and obviously rewards the player for being clever enough to discover/ find such items. It also makes the difficulty level way harder if the player is not aware of the order of the bosses. It’s a clever move from Capcom and really you could nearly consider the clever swap out of main character in X2/3 to metal gear solid 2. Remember Raiden? Well he’s our Zero. Great games all those years ago🤙 Who else but Capcom can give their robot man a street fighter special move that was way hidden and really only found in gaming newsprint?

Again with the main zero bullshit. Yes, inafune wanted him to steal the spotlight , even forced it to by ridiculously twisting the plots, but X was always the main character. Even inafune calls Zero the sub-character "I designed X, but I remember having a very hard time coming up with the initial design... The Super NES allowed me to use a broader range of colors, and that turned out to be quite a challenge as I was not used to so much freedom. -Hayato Kaji "Usually, I would be the one doing the main characters, and Kaji would take care of the sub characters. This time, however, we decided to change things up a bit. I asked Kaji to do Mega Man, and I made the sub character, Zero, my project. I'm sure I've said this in may different places in more than a few different ways, but I really wanted Zero to be a playable character. I wanted to offer a 'different Mega Man' and possibly a more hardcore game. -Keiji Inafune Mega Man X Official Complete Works, UDON Entertainment Corp. 2009. pg.7-8. Retrieved on April 6, 2011.

I would assume the faded Zero sprite is for something about him showing up again in some way after his "death" after the a Vile fight. The purple sprite I have no idea what it could've been for other than some upgrade when he was meant to be playable. Like either a version of the X Armor for him or just a power up from an enemy (like extra damage or defense). Really wished they would've used him as a playable character earlier than X3. But since he didn't have his sword until X2, then he would've been exactly like X in a way I guess. I just know he sucked ass in X3 and if we could have gotten to play him sooner he could've been fine tuned quicker and by the time X3 came around he would've been closer to what he was in X4 and beyond. Which is the Zero that every loves to use. Because he was awesome as all hell

I think calling him Megaman over here worked out better for the series in the long run. I get that Rockman was supposed to be a music reference and that Rockman and Roll pair to make Rock n Roll. But that reference no longer applies since Roll doesn't exist. Although having a version of her show up later would be crazy. Or others coming back from the old days to appear in the new series. But if they showed up they would probably have to actually explain what happened to the original Megaman too. Anyway. Yeah. I think Megaman is a better name anyway. I never liked Rockman for a name.

I really wish they would've kept the changing levels thing throughout this whole series. That made returning to levels to collect things a necessity if you wanted to get everything. Like it was impossible to get the Heart Tanks in Flame Mammoth and Sting Chameleon stages without causing the environment to change. Freezing the lava to walk over to get it and flooding the level to be able to jump farther to reach the platform. In later games they made this more of a once you have the right weapon upgrade you can collect everything. But having the levels change was really fun. Beating Storm Eagle crashed his ship into Spark Mandrills power plant (which might have been what always made the lights go out. Not sure because Storm Eagle is often the second one I best because is weapon is super useful for damaging minibosses). Idk. Point is that it was a neat mechanic and should have been more reusable in later games. Even up they had it as a selectable thing. Like when you choose a stage, you could select normal or altered version. This would be like an extra unlockable and everybody loves unlocking shit in games. Lol
@sageneodraconus2 жыл бұрын
Also wish they'd have kept the Street Fighter (or any other Capcom game references) super moves as a running gag for the series. They only did the 2 of them and then the 3rd game got enhancement chips with the gold mega chip being its secret thing. Then X4 and on got the Ultimate Armor. But to have more Capcom references popping up would've been awesome too. Eventually we would have gotten to Akuma's Raging Demon super move. Which would have been brutal as all hell and a lot of fun. Lol. Although I guess making Zero's rising attacks was their way of keeping the Shoryuken in the games on a lesser level. But the one hit win moves would've been nice to add in. Even if only as unlockable after beating the game type things. Idk
