I just got the game myself last night, and so far after trying all the stages with both characters managed to take down Ghost Woman with Roll and Missile Man with Rock. The latter is probably the easiest stage and boss combination IMO; while I had no problem with Ghost Woman's stage, she gave me quite a bit of trouble. I'm really enjoying this LP; the back-and-forth banter as you take turns struggling through an 8-bit Mega Man game really takes me back.

And I sympathize with the struggle to make that last jump at the end of this episode. Definitely one of the toughest jumps to make in the game, at least as Rock. Once I figured out that the birds only take one shot to kill and I didn't need to hold a charge for anything, it got a lot easier to make.

The final ally isn't in Tide Man's stage. He's in Reactor Man's stage. You needed the fire breath to melt some blocks to access the area.

I cannot wait to watch you guys face the boss of this level.

Just FYI since you were wondering about it, the alternate path you couldn't figure out how to access is gotten to through the underwater section. When you reach the ladder, instead of going up, Rush Jet off the right side of the screen and you'll come to a small room with IIRC a large health and yet another extra life. the ladder from there goes up to the dark area with the two bats, then off to the left where you slide under the gap and proceed normally. Just a small detour for an extra life, and all you miss is the two fire shooters over the water.

azren posted:Our boss here is, iirc, a reference to a Wily stage boss in MM1, where Mega Man had to fight a copy of himself. Yes it can. It's still tough to time correctly to successfully land a hit and doesn't do any more damage than Protoman's own charged shots, but it's still a thing that can be done. I still haven't gotten past this point myself. It's a tough boss fight.

I just be the game for the first time myself; I was stuck on the Protoman stage for a long time, and I also used all my E-tanks to get through the fight. I had no major problems getting through the boss re-fights, and as for the Wily Machine, it took me a few tries to figure out the best way to go about the fight. It's honestly not too bad once you figure out the weaknesses and can get into a good rhythm. I eventually managed to beat it without using any of my E-tanks but I used up all three in the Wily Capsule fight. Also I hope they figure out the second phase weakness during the next episode. It'll make Yorkshire Tea's day for certain once they figure it out.

Good going at the end there, it was very tense. FWIW the Wily machine weaknesses were: Phase 1: laser. Does good damage to the eyes, and opens the shutters fast, too. Phase 2: BEETLES! You have to shoot them right under the hatches after he drops his bombs; it's also kind of funny, as the corpses pile up around Wily at the controls and pop out when you win. I agree it was a great game; I haven't played 9 but know it has a good reputation. This LP was also the first I had heard of this game, so I'm glad you decided to pick it up.
