I don't understand why anyone would enjoy this other than nostalgia goggles.
This is the height of fucking artificial difficulty cryptic bullshit, the game doesn't even give you a hint, let alone a fucking explanation like it needs.
>In before wow underaged hurr durr we all worked this out as kids instinctively
Did you try ANY of the items they told you you unlocked?
Adrian Myers
Is this copypasta? No seriously, fucking deja vu right now. I feel like I've seen this post, word for word, before.
Parker Morgan
Probably because it's a fucking horseshit game and someone else came to the same conclusions. It's no pasta, I'm here at this point right now.
Brayden Smith
Alright nigga, here's what you gotta do. You see those worm things? Go back to the machine they spawned out of, the one on the ground. Shoot them and replenish your wp. It's bullshit but that's the way old games are. You gotta grind for shit.
Christian Bell
Capcom games for ya, they always have some things that piss you off in them
Jason Morgan
You literally have 2 different Items that could get you up there. You would actually have to put a lot of effort into being this inept.

>Use 2 >Turns itself off before you can reach ladder >Can't drop another one while you're on the ledge because "not enough space" >Use 3 >It bounces away from the ladder before you can get on it
It is easy, but to most people it initially looks impossible. Even I was kind of stumped the first time I came across it. That's the thing about Megaman 2, most of it is only difficult on your first try. Subsequent playthroughs are easy as fuck.

Samuel Young
Go back to playing Super Mario 3D Land with the super leaf, kiddo *except kiddo is in the Sans voice*.
Leo Rivera
Fuck that music is so sexy.
Hunter Williams
2 is the Jet, you stupid fuck. It's 1 and 3. Were you even looking at the screen while you played?
Jacob Thompson

Wyatt Barnes
>to most people it initially looks impossible you wouldn't have got that far if you don't know how to use items 1-3. It's been a while since I've played, but I'm pretty sure you have to use them 30 seconds earlier in the same level to get over the buildings. If he's bitching about running out of juice for them then you just have to walk slightly to the left and kill a few things to refill it. How retarded are people nowadays I beat this shit when I was 8. Why not show the actual tricky part of the level where you have to use 3 of your platforms to get across the open air to the ladder at the top left of the screen
Julian Hall
Now, I agree that everyone has their nostalgia goggles strapped on too tight for Megaman 2, but git gud you fucking scrub.
Seriously, you just use Item 3 once to clear that. It's trivial in its simplicity. The game shouldn't have to explain it to you anymore than it should explain that some weapons kill enemies faster.
Chase Jackson
Well, he's right about the way those things bounce around. It is a little weird. I think I just used rush for the building, and last I checked he can't be used for that section.
At first I was a little stumped. I guess I shouldn't say impossible, but stumped slightly.
Zachary Hughes
huh I always thought you had to use the heatman power to beat the dragon
Aaron Johnson

Hunter Edwards
Delicious baby tears. People could beat this when they were ten years old and you are having problems with it.
Matthew Nguyen
>I just used rush >rush >MM2 confirmed for never having played the game before
Dominic Turner
Its been years but I remember this being the part where the game was like "yeah you actually need that shit now". Felt really cool.
Hey maybe I should make a shit post thread about one of my favorite old games.
Hunter Roberts
Not that user but you're being a little pedantic, my nigga.
Luke Allen
No, I did play it, but I associate the coil with rush. I always think "rush coil".
Bentley Thompson
I'm inclined to agree
Caleb Allen
>americans know who Steve-O is but not Stalin Oh my god I am literally shaking right now.
Noah Walker
kek, if you are having problems with that shit I wanna your face when you reach the boss that requires Crash Bombs. Git fucking gud, OP
Cameron Butler
there was no coil in 2 tho
Anthony Roberts
There's nothing that even resembles a coil in MM2. In fact, the closest connection one could make between Rush and MM2 items is that later versions of Rush Jet are sort of similar to Item 2.
Gabriel Cook
I don't think I ever beat any of the nes megamans...
Am I a pleb?
Lincoln Clark
I'm sorry, OP, just git gud.
Nathan Smith
That's because it IS easy. Megaman games are some of the easiest ones og the generation.
Levi Butler
Why the fuck am I remembering a coil? I feel like I'm having a false memory from childhood, I could have sworn that there was one in MM2. It's been too long since I last played.
Camden Phillips
This game is shit, plain and simple.
Oh, let's all get the warp whistle and warp to "big world"! Too bad big world isn't fucking fun, like the rest of this game. The entire thing is designed to anger and frustrate you. Oh, you get Kuribo's shoe on one fucking level! Wow, pardon me while I make the universal motion for a handjob. Kuribo's shoe fucking sucked. What did it do, exactly? It let you JUMP ON THINGS, something you were able to do the entire fucking game. Oh, also you looked gay.
There are some interesting power-ups in the game, such as Tanookie Mario, Hammer Mario, and Frog Mario. But guess what? You can get them on like 2 levels total, and if you fuck up and get hit ONCE, you lose them, FOREVER. Wow, that's fun! I love games that demand I play perfectly or have no fun, because I'm a fucking jap who strives for absolute perfection in gaming otherwise I kill myself.
Mario 3 may have been interesting or fun at one time, but the game is a worthless piece of shit in today's day and age. It's horribly flawed and full of punch-in-the-dick moments, much more so than it has moments that are just fun to play.
Leo Hughes
You're probably thinking of subsequent Megaman games and associating them with Megaman 2.
Hudson Phillips
No offense user but yes
Camden Peterson
At what age did you first play 2?
Daniel Young
I beat 6, 7 and 8. Do those make me less of a pleb?
Kevin Murphy
>the parts where you HAD to use the Magnet Beam in MM1
Jayden Davis
beat 3 legit no save states, thats the unplebing game, then beat the rest, they are all good even 6
Tyler Nelson
yeah maybe I am. I played it when I was 5.
Josiah King
>this thread
Evan Martinez

Jack Rodriguez
But 2's the famous one and 1 is the first one. Why would I start with 3?
Easton Taylor
Kinda. Try beating 2 and 3 at least.
Sebastian Hill
>tfw regularly play through the classic and x series games, almost on a daily basis >am at the point where i can clear most of them without ever taking dmg lol
Nicholas Watson
just do it, you will understand later
Ian Campbell
I used save states in Wily's Castle in Megaman 2. It doesn't get any more pleb than that.
Zachary Taylor
>American schools teach failure as success
Okay, I ned to ask because I can't wrap my head around this. what schools do this?
I've lived in California my whole life and attended gifted science/magnet schooling, and we were EXPLICITLY taught failure was not an option and that there would be consequences, Even in college I was grilled hard and never got a free pass card. But here I see people complaining as if they've gone their whole life being handed everything and don't understand what losing is like, Just look at this fucking "Safe cry zone" policy colleges created for students "Mourning" over the presedential election
Was this just a public school thing? I'm seriously bewildered that schooling has gotten this bad, and I can't believe these past 5 years have tanked so drastically if thats the case.
Jack Robinson
>beat 3 legit no save states Are you implying that's some sort of fucking achievement? The game lets you have nine E-tanks at once, so none of the bosses are a challenge, and you have Rush Jet, so none of the platforming is a challenge. 3 is good game, but it's in no way challenging unless you impose restrictions on yourself. Because 1 and 2 have aged poorly, the former more than the latter. I'm not saying 3 hasn't aged at all, but it's leagues better than its predecessors.
Isaac Ross
Alright I'll skip 1 only because I've beaten gutsman a dozen times only to never actually beat the whole game.
I'm playing 2 first though.
Alexander Rogers
I seriously don't understand this mentality.
Kids can play Bloodborne/Souls and praise it for its punishing the player and making the game difficult, but when older games like megaman and mario do it, its suddenly not okay, and needs to be fixed?
Blake Peterson
Is there more than just that one room in wily 1? Where you have to climb, fall and climb again. They also give you 2 respawning weapon energy pellets in the room below.
Benjamin Green
>unless you impose restrictions on yourself.
which you should imo. only the most limp-wristed of faggot casuals would use E/sub-tanks, etc...
Lucas Scott
Good luck, you'll have a lot of fun with 3.
Evan Lewis
I went to public school in Texas and I didn't have this problem. I hear the Republicans in Texas are trying to get rid of critical thinking from schools here though. Something about it making people question their religion or whatever.
Jason Nelson
Good man, 2 is a legitimately good Megaman game. Some of its flaws aside the level design is superb.
Lucas Cruz
>different people say different things Do you have an example of one person saying both of those things?
Robert Hughes
>you've unlocked a new thing! x999 >get here >try all the things
wow it fucking worked, i beat this game when i was 8
Elijah Peterson
Thats fucking stupid. I grew up researching science on my own terms, and loved it, but even later in life I grew to accept Religion and science could co-exist on different principles.
You don't just restrict one or the other and keep a child from being able to make the choice themselves
Josiah Murphy
I agree, but merely beating a Megaman game without savestates isn't impressive. Next time say >I beat Megaman 3 without savestates or E-tanks So you don't sound like a casual that's elated over doing something pathetically easy.
Nathaniel Gutierrez
yeah I don't think it's a bad idea to just forego mm1 for now. that game can be pretty punishing for new players.
Oliver James
I beat Megaman 3 while standing on my head the entire time.
Chase Hughes
In order to have gotten to that point you HAVE to have used the items to get over the walls before that.
Jackson Brown
Yeah lots of Repubs (not all of course) see Science and Religion as conflicting. What with science always conflicting with the bible and all.
Being able to accept science alongside some kind of faith or spirituality is definitely the most ascended way of thinking.
Matthew Jackson
oh i wasnt the user u were talking to. sorry. i just felt the need to butt in with my opinion
Xavier Martinez
Is baby throwing a fit over difficulty?
Michael Johnson
>playing dead rising on pc >smooth 60 fps heaven >some blunt weapons have this retarded time stopping gimmick that literally freezes the game for one frame every time you hit a zombie. >if you hit 10 zombies in one swing it looks like the game froze up.
ffs, why do they put retarded things like that?
Isaac Gray
You don't stand on your head, you balance on it. Fucking casual.
We're making fun of manchildren like OP, not actual kids you moron.
Gavin James
He didn't even play it.
Nolan Long
I find it weird that people have to add "without save states" when talking about how they beat old NES games. I mean, I haven't played a single NES game until like 5 years ago, so I wouldn't call myself a nostalgia fag, but I beat atleast one of the classic Megaman games every month and it would be really weird for me to use save states for that.
I guess that is a PC gaming thing?
Angel Powell
use a guide hombre
James Clark
It's not even difficulty. It is just a part where you have to use an item to advance. There is no difficulty involved.
Aiden Parker
Played it for the first time last week and loved it. You seem to be the typical idiot modern games are aimed at
Luis Nguyen
It's probably because people immediately assume "beat game on an emulator = using save states".
Grayson Martin
MM and MMX games are super easy, you should try MM Zero 1 and 2 without any savestates or skipping bosses.
Andrew Rodriguez
Except for the fact that games ARE meant for children, and those are around 16 and still incopetent as fuck
Brody Watson
Yeah, I guess that's it. I own all the NES games I have an interest in playing on a cartridge (or atleast in some form on virtual console/GBA classics or whatever) so I don't immediately think "emulator" when I hear "NES".
John Perez
I can't imagine what kind of tool would use save states in an action game.
Rpgs though I have a hard time seeing any reason not to use them.
Joshua Thompson
>I guess that is a PC gaming thing? No, more like an emulation thing. Since people can savestate so easily on an emulator, it's easy to assume anyone who plays on an emulator is using savestates to beat the game.
Samuel Morris
>horseshit game >game is actually pretty easy >IF you don't give up immediately
Kevin Brown
Explain why using save states in RPGs is more legitimate. Most old RPGs I can think of have some sort of save system in place, so there's no reason to use savestates then.
Brandon Cox
>I can't imagine what kind of tool would use save states in an action game.
You'd be surprised. They rationalize it as "training".
Lucas Nelson
Come on, that's almost "y can't metroid crawl" level of stupidity.
Jonathan Wilson
holy shit, how can anyone by so retarded? this is just platformer, not fucking jrpg.
Hudson Williams
>people find megaman 2 hard Fucking how. None of the levels are hard apart from a couple of things in wily fortress, and then the boss goes down super quick
Jacob Long
yeah it's probably a pc thing. I grew up on actual nes games, so using save states in emus and stuff is sacrilege to me
Chase Wood
>People complain about "artificial difficulty" on Megaman 2 For fuck's sake I did this when I was 6 years old OP. You're getting shat upon by my 6 years old self!
Jacob Allen
>go through the same 5 random battles a hundred times as you go through a dungeon >get to a boss and lose because you had the wrong set of numbers equipped on your guy >have to go through the same 5 random battles a hundred times as you go through a dungeon AGAIN >game is also extremely slow and menu heavy Yeah it's really not that big of a deal to me.
Christian Peterson
35 year old here. I agree with this.
Thomas Turner
>Games should begin with avatar creation because American players are happy to begin playing for content to make them stand out
Holy shit, am I a Memerican? I love games with avatar creation and customization options, but I love them in single-player games too, not just multiplayer ones with 3 million users.
Zachary Johnson
(You)
Justin Wright
Do you pay like actual money so you get a special pair of sunglasses or a spiffy hat so your character can stand out? If so then yes you are a meme.
Chase Price
The part where you need the crash bombs was bullshit.
