Block Man’s voice clips are great and I genuinely can’t wait to hear all the puns and what not that the bosses yell out during the fights.

I didn't like Mega Man's voice but Block Man's was great. It's probably how MM8 was supposed to be if those voices weren't hilarious for other reasons.

My take on the demo: -Controls feel good and in general the action and level design feel like proper Mega Man. -I found the level music really bland and I hope the whole soundtrack isn't like that. -The actual boss fight was fun. I appreciate that they brought a new gimmick in to it without making the boss fights feel incredibly long. Overall I think this game will be good, I look forward to the full release.

Complaints: -Knockback could be the same as the last several games, but the way you fly backwards is annoying -Screenshake. Go away forever. -The drop rate for health in the demo was annoying for learning the level -The spacing of checkpoints vs. death pits and Ninja Gaiden falcons better be for artificially extending the demo -Oh look, at the peak of the Bosses 2nd phase walk you're like 1 pixel short of hitting him (I'm still in an MMX mindset where you just wall cling and shoot fuckers) Iffy: Playing on the little Switch controllers felt weird; kept tapping the gear modes and screwing up after. Is there a way to easily bait out Blockman's ground sweep during his second phase? Otherwise the AI could easily trap you against the wall and just slap the poo poo out of you until dead. Three weeks to go to the day. If the whole game is this vicious for checkpoints and health drops, I'm gonna speculate low-70s review scores and smug "git gud" responses to anyone who says the game is too hard. I on the other hand will be crying about my fading reflexes and sore thumbs/wrists.

Beat the demo. It's amazing how much everything is more convenient. Rush on a button, nice. Being able to swap weapons with just a flick, nice. Gears not being required and being able to beat stages without them, nice. Autofire/slide can be bound to their own buttons, nice. Being able to play around with/fiddle with weapons rather than just a cutscene, NICE. Difficulty levels really only seem to affect damage values. Maybe this is just the demo but after I beat it on Normal I went back through on Newcomer and I noticed very little difference in enemy placement/traps. The double gear system honestly feels like something to ease in newcomers with, it's interesting but not really needed at all and I safely went through the stage without bothering with it. Power Gear seems like it's better for weapons than for the Buster, for the Buster it just seems better to use Speed gear and gatling everything. Sliding is really, really annoying to do manually. I'm not sure if I'm not used to the Switch controller (I got it just today) but doing the down-jump input is a huge pain. But the ability to assign a dedicated slide button kind of makes it a moot point, so whatever. Dunno if I was in WOW COOL IT'S MEGAMAN WHIZZ BANG SHOOTY PEW PEW mode the whole time but I didn't really get to hear the music. It was just, well, there. I know some people say the only good music is NES music, but I think MM7 had a really nice soundtrack so who knows. Anyway, I think it's cool, thanks for reading my opinion, cya.

Barudak posted:Hey Capcom, can I get a Megaman Legends Collection? You will get ports of the games with that awful smoothing filter. The Switch version will use the Mega Man 64 port of MML1; the others will use the PC port. The main selling point within the fandom will be the restoration of all of the PocketStation mini-games in The Misadventures of Tron Bonne, but you'll have to unlock them. Mega Man Legends 3 will be represented by unlockable trailers, and Gallery image descriptions will imply that Legends 3 could still happen by saying "The adventures of MegaMan Volnutt aren't over!" and giving you design artwork of Barrett, Aero, and a design for Roll that we've never seen before.

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised. The problem is, Capcom notoriously used to define a game 'doing well' with numbers that any sane publisher would think were off by at least an order of magnitude. Maybe things have changed since then, though? That's some rad Devil art.

Yeah, Capcom has almost always had unrealistic expectations regarding their games and will often times cancel a project at the slightest excuse (such as Legends 3 where they didn't even publicly release the demo they made and then blamed "lack of fan interest" for the death of the project). I hope MM11 does well and it leads to a revival of the franchise but I wouldn't hold my breath.

The last few MMX games were failures. MMX8 was okay, but X6 and X7 were bad games. But MM11 is shaping up to be pretty good, so I'd like to see the team tackle an MMX game. Also, I just finished playing through MM9 again, and wow, while it's nowhere near as garbage-fire as MMX7, it's still rife with problems. The last Wily gauntlet, the lack of charge shots and slides, and the obvious nostalgia-touches put me off. While I don't expect anyone to share my feelings on it, I have to say that MM9 is a very middle-of-the-road MM game.

I'm kind of with you on this. I honestly like MM9, but I think that people's opinions are gilded due to it being the first "official" MM game after so many years. I can understand critics of the charge shot because it often doesn't have enough drawbacks to offset is power, but taking out the slide is just bollocks. Frankly, I had much more fun with 10 and its three distinct characters, but the "shine was off the apple" by then as my late grandfather might have said, and I am convinced that people liked it less because it was simply less new. Every time people criticize 10, the only thing that they can seem to bloody think of is Sheep Man's weapon, which was admittedly very badly implemented, but it's only one sub-weapon.

I can totally understand people not liking the admittedly OP charge shot in MM5 since it was literally better than any other weapon, but MM9 tried way too hard to be MM2 and was annoyingly difficult.Takoluka posted:It would be helpful if "MM2 is the best game" was something Capcom stopped listening to. Yeah, this. MM2 was when the game really started getting good, but that doesn't mean we want it over and over again.

Let’s be real here, Legends 3 was a passion project for Inafune who admitted that it probably wasn’t going to bring in any money, so when he left the company, they wouldn’t have any obligation to follow through with it or Inafune’s proposal to hire him and his company on as outside contractors to finish up.

I really really don't get the 'annoyingly difficult' thing. I replayed the entire series when the Legacy collection came out and MM9 is by far one of the easiest games in the series, partially due to some minor polishing from NES era hit detection and such and partially just because.. it's easy? I honestly can't think of anything in it I found particularly frustrating by MM standards.

While 3 is and always will be my personal favourite, I would agree that 4 is probably the most refined. While they were beautiful and had the benefit of a lot of experience, 5 and 6 were rather guilty of stagnation and I think that both suffered from boring, uninspired weapon design. 6 had some great ideas, but the boss weapons seemed so bland. I would say that that was a strength of 9. I've been playing 2.5d recently and I'm quite enjoying it. The slide is in as both Mega Man and Protoman function exactly the same way, but the charge shot is locked behind getting at least three achievements out of a roster of 12 or so. I also unlocked Base, but he's somewhat watered down as he just has the 8-way, non-charging shot and a ground-only dash that is functionally identical to the slide. No double jump and no Treble (RC and RJ are only in the Wily stages), but I still like his visual design.

No, that's what a bunch of rumors said, but all anyone at Capcom has said is that there's not currently a new X game in development. http://www.siliconera.com/2018/08/30/mega-man-11-producer-dispels-rumors-of-mega-man-x9-currently-in-development/ But he also made a point to add: quote:Actually, Mega Man 11 was also born because of the players’ voices for a new game. The collection before did quite well in terms of sales and reviews, and this was a main point of argument that backed our proposal to develop a new game project.
