Alright, I have level 3,5, and 7 still open if I'm not mistaken.

SirPhoebos posted:EDIT: I was never big into Megaman or it's offshoots, so I'd appreciate a breakdown of why MN9 is bad compared to it's spiritual predecessor. It'll be clearer in a couple videos (and unfortunately a big chunk of the reason is "Internet Drama"), but for starters, watch a boss fight from a classic Megaman LP and contrast it with the bosses from MN9. Mega Man boss fights are over in 30 seconds. The ones in Mighty Number 9 have these long, drawn-out attack patterns which offer you a tiny window to return fire, and they have massive health pools so you have to repeat the entire process multiple times over the course of several minutes. Oh, and then they can all heal themselves. Even watching, you can tell that it's not fun. (I'm trying to think of a classic MM boss as obnoxious as, say, the Avi fight. Sigma from Mega Man X, maybe?)

Looking back at how this mess went down, I believe it's more a combination of incompetence, scope creep and hype so over the top nothing could've lived up to it than Inafking being a greedy bastard stuck up his own rear end of pretentiousness (though of course that was also a factor).

I remember hearing the hype about this game and thinking it might be interesting, but since I'd never played any Megaman games I gave it a pass. Dodged a bullet here for sure even if the gameplay is only mediocre and not as bad as the voice acting. Can't wait to see the trainwreck bits though! This is great and you have nothing to be sorry for.

LogicalFallacy posted:Careful about flashing that image around. You might trigger CJacobs' PTSD. Ah, you're right I should totally link it to him. Also I shoulda probably asked this before. Would people like the whole cast as doing 1-8 OR would you want for me to show off (Follow) weakness chains and special interactions with some of the Mighty No.s in the stages? Outside of MN2, because seriously gently caress her! I might just buster duel everyone. OR does anyone really care about that?

You might as well show the game off in the best possible way, to at least polish the turd a little.

Well, it depends, do you want to play each stage normally or show off whatever "help" each No. is capable of giving?

Buster Duel them halfway, then show off weaknesses. Because, sin of sins, this game does not have boss refights.

I think I'll show off the "help" they don't really do much, but well actually Pyrogen does make MN2's bossfight less of a pain in the rear end. kalonZombie posted:Buster Duel them halfway, then show off weaknesses.

Do whatever makes the game less painful for you. It's enough that you're playing it, really.

Everyone and their grandmother are dumping on this game. Granted I haven't played it, or any Megaman games and it looks bland as hell in my opinion.

Zain, I'd be interested in co-commentating on 3's stage. I wouldn't be available until next week though if that matters.

Better than nothing? I don't know about that. It's really more like "At least you aren't being physically beaten to death right now: Let's Play Mighty No. 9"

Okay, so who donated to make this happen, knowing full well that "Inafune wants more Megaman money, but can't use Megaman himself! Interesting! I'm sure the end result will be creative and fun" Like you actually thought your money would go towards a Megaman fan game? Haha It went straight up his nose

Haha I thought he WAS the creator of Megaman...until I found out it wasn't even close to being the case a month or two after the kickstarter ended. There were also some things that happened BEHIND the scenes...but I'm not gonna bring it up in the thread.

I do want to say a couple positive things about this game. I do like that it doesn't have the refights and that actually makes sense with the story. The other thing is that it makes finding weakness for bosses really easy. What I mean is that if you already beat a boss and you go to select the next stage that you want to fight in. If you already have the weapon needed for the boss then you also get an extra option on the stage select called advice. All advice is, is a prevousious boss talking vaguely about the stage. However that previous boss is also the weakness to the one you are about to fight and they will also show up somewhere in the stage to assist. They aren't really helpful but it's nice. As for me I really didn't use boss weakness that much outside of the Avi fight since it made fighting him a lot easier. Instead I used the sword ability and whaled on everybody because it also deflects bullets. The sword is the best powerup outside of the laser.

From my understanding is that the money really was squandered, on what I've heard mixed things. The most popular thing was just tons of catering and parties.

I think a summary of the Mighty Drama spawned from Mighty No 9's development would be nice, just for those of us that weren't really paying attention to it. I didn't even hear about this game until recently, let alone any stories behind it.
