Everything Mighty Number Nine set out to do was basically already done by Azure Striker Gunvolt without graphics that look like rotten rear end, so really it was redundant before it even came out.

Play Azure Striker Gunvolt. It's cool.

I think I'd compare it to video games like plays to movies but there's definitely merit in that yeah

Super Mario 64 and Ocarina Of Time are both strong contenders. Two of the first games to figure out how the gently caress to design levels, control schemes, and camera setups in 3D space, and extremely well designed games in their own right to boot. Just look how many 3rd person action games still use Z-targeting basically verbatim decades after Ocarina of Time.

To be fair, Gunvolt is more Zero than Classic Megaman, so in all seriousness MN9 would have had a decent niche if it had been better. It just...wasn't.

Mighty Number 9 would have been better if it was more like Crackle Cradle and was full of violent, gory deaths.

Give me some epic Odin Sphere advice

I don't know if things have changed for the remake, but you can use the Phozon Release spell both to grow Napple seeds you've planted, and also to boost your EXP by reabsorbing all of the phozons, which in addition to gaining you EXP gives you most of the MP you just spent back, allowing you to use the spell again, etc.

Some enemies have very high physical defense, so know what attacks have elemental properties.
