Sup Forums WILL fall for this bait.

Not bait. I really cannot understand how people don't trash this game more.

...

age?

>Sup Forums bashing the most flawless game ever made
nothing is sacred

I dropped the game very quickly because I can't duck. Whose idea was that?

the guy who knew how to jump, mario that shit

You have to be 18+ to post here.

I know I'm taking the bait in the most colossal way, but you have legitimately shit taste.

Falling for the bait.

Legitimately one of the best games ever made.

Ok I'll bite

Elaborate OP, I wanna hear this.

>nostalgia blinded retards will think this is bait

I agree OP, it's extremely unfun and aged terribly.

It's not a bad game, just a bad Megaman game.

Expand, I want to hear why you think so. Go ahead Clarissa, explain it all.

dude come on the tutorial stage is even well made.

all the weapon upgrades are all viable in their own way, based ost, based bosses

>Go Right and Shoot: The Game
I literally don't get the appeal of this game.

There's a strong possibility it might not be for you. Have you tried Minecraft?

It's too easy

...

Shit like this is cheap and terribly designed

I really don't think it is flawless. A lot of the level design is trivialized by your dash and wall jump abilities.

>A lot of the level design is trivialized by your dash

Nobody forces you to do Chill Penguin first.

>no healing items/mechanic
>lives system
>can't duck
>requires button mashing for optimal DPS
>can't defeat a boss unless you were lucky enough to have the right weapon, or looked it up online

how the fuck are you animals even defending this?

Its not really, you have to deal with the encounters either way. Its just a very easy game overall.

the dark souls of cuphead-like games

Try running in the opposite direction

git gud

low tier bait

This is the shitendo userbase.

Really needed some pop-up, text-based instructions. Like some kind of partner character to give you advice or something.

>maverick hunter x

SNES version is superior in every imaginable way.

Literally EVERY WAY.

The only thing about this game that's poorly designed is how so much basically necessary items are secret. I think having HP upgrades and armor in a Mega Man game is kind of dumb, especially considering the classics didn't do that

Vile mode is the only reason to play that version desu
Even then it's half-baked

>>can't defeat a boss unless you were lucky enough to have the right weapon, or looked it up online
GIT FUCKING GUD M8 ALSO YOU HAVE TO BE EIGHTEEN TO POST IN THIS BOARD

b8 but I'm bored so

>no healing items/mechanic
Enemies drop heals and ammo, you buttblasted 10-year-old
>lives system
There are checkpoints in the levels to mark progress, when you lose all your lives you have to start the entire stage over again. Punishment for failure unlike in the games you're used to, skipper
>can't duck
You shouldn't need to, the game is designed that you can jump over or dash under enemies, but yes, there is no retarded ass to grass mechanic.
>requires button mashing for optimal DPS
You got me there. You have to press buttons to play the game
>can't defeat a boss unless you were lucky enough to have the right weapon, or looked it up online
Every boss can be beaten buster only. The trick is, though, that you have to actually learn the patterns and actually not be terrible at video games

>Go Right: the game
>put colored blocks together: the game
>shoot a guy: the game
You can apply these labels of "basic mechanic: the game" to fucking anything

>piss easy difficulty with no hard mode
>exploitable bosses unlike the remake
>no vile mode

It's a remixed version like Mario 64 DS
It doesn't have to be better, it just aims to be a somewhat fresh take on the same game

I know this is bait but fuck you, you stupid ass worthless piece of shit I hope your whole family dies and your fucking pets get skinned alive while you get sodomized by a gorilla. Fuck you.

Doesn't matter too much when you have the option to jump back in to previously beaten levels to search for them or go back to suspicious areas when you have more weapon powers.

[spoilers]Also holy shit secrets in games are bad now? Sup Forums truly is dead[/spoiler]

Even though I don't give a shit about the mega man story overall I do hate some of the changes they made, like mega man defeating vile at the beginning just sits wrong with me.

>all these enraged responses from people who even know it's bait

Well done OP.

Is this an untouchable game?

Nothing is necessary, not even the dash. The average player can beat the game with just the dash, a few health upgrades and a sub tank or two. It wont even be that hard besides the spider and Sigma. Finding that shit really isnt hard.

> actually not be terrible at video games

You're actually defending non-inclusive design? So what, you need to be "not terrible" to enjoy it? Sounds like bad design to me.

It's not untouchable but it's a pretty god damn great example of SNES era game design.

>I know it's bait but I'll bite

Worse than genuinely falling for it. Retards don't intend to act retarded. To deliberately do it speaks mountains about your intelligence.

And for the record, Megaman X is an enjoyable game for its time that requires a certain degree of skill and may or may not be to your particular tastes but either way that's fine

You dumb fuck
>no healing items/mechanic
No, you're just too much of a dipshit to find them.
>can't duck
Then jump
>requires button mashing
You could charge your shot too
>can't defeat boss unless you were lucky enough to have the right weapon
Yes you can you fucking narc it just requires not being an absolute mongoloid

yeah, they will fall for it and IRONICALLY post that ego raptor video as "proof" that Ego knows shit about anything.

Sometimes a barrier to entry can be a good thing, user. Maybe you're just a little too used to the "participation trophy" design philosophy of modern video games?

>flawless
>you're forced to get the Dash upgrade in order to enjoy the rest of the game
>because of this, you're more-or-less inclined to beat the Mavericks in a particular order
>you can't play as Zero
It was close, but not flawless. Even a retard like Arin could recognize that.

And the only thing more pathetic than that is calling people out on it.

>le bait XDDDD
First of all, it's "troll", you facebook-browsing reddit trash.
Secondly, you're making yourself look retarded if you just just spout catchphrases and don't even try to elaborate on why you think you're right. Why exactly is the OP wrong, can you explain?

I've only found the 2nd Vacuum Fish miniboss in Launch Octopus' stage and the entirety of Sigma stage 1 to be shitters, but everything else was fine to me. Could you say what you didn't like about it OP?

Oh gawd, I'm laughing so hard that I can barely breathe. You fucking retarded assclown need to go back to you mobile games. You can't even manage to ruse people on a board for slobbering idiots with severe autism. Better even, Kys.

Most of the items being useless besides the bosses was pretty bad. Plus that heart tank on Kuwanger's stage, that's just bullshit.

oh wow you cant play as Zero in Megaman X, how strange! Fuck Zero

>>requires button mashing for optimal DPS
>You got me there. You have to press buttons to play the game

you don't even need to kill every enemy to progress and you can take out multiple enemies with a charged buster shot.

This is bait.

Also how can I elaborate on why OP is wrong when all he put is that it was "poorly designed" which is vague at best and obviously wrong

LMAO I SAW THAT EGORAPTER VIDEO TOO MY DUDE ECKS DEE
I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS ISN'T A MASTERPIECE LIKE EARTHBOUND OR UNDERTALE, WHAT WAS CAPCOM THINKING?

>every X game starting with 3 lets you play as Zero
>despite the series being called Megaman X

What did he mean by this?
Also stay butthurt, Xfag.

The only thing I can consider as bad design is that the game forcees you to play Chill Penguin stage in order to get the dash function...

It should be from the begining.

>Started playing this on my SNES Mini
>bought a copy for just for it

OP, you are absolutely stupid for buying either of those and then coming on here to shit post about it because you realized you wasted your money. serves you right.

You have to be not retarded to post on here.

The game doesn't force you. You can play and beat any other stage before Chill Penguin.

>bad Megaman game
its not even megaman. its megaman x you turd. not the same character.

>this thread

mein fecking sides
children these days

Theres a dash in this game? How?

Is a basic movement, basically essential, it should be enabled from the start. Also you cant clear the game without them because the game FORCES you to obtain them in Chill Penguin stage.

>you're forced to get the Dash upgrade in order to enjoy the rest of the game
here you go lad
youtube.com/watch?v=N8MuoxyZcl8&list=PLD5FA65F3FB1E2625

>>you can't play as Zero
then skip to the shitty x3 and up games. every game in the x series past the first are shit because of the shitty drama forced into it.

here

You guys better be just pretending to be retarded.

Stop replying to bait you fucking retards. At least sage when you do

No, the game is legit terribly designed

Instant death from spikes which are EVERYWHERE
Literal moments where you are forced to do the same shit again because the game pulls "LOL SURPRISE! YOU HAD TO JUMP HERE!" moments on you
Moving platforms not times properly
Respawning enemies if you go one pixel off the screen
Awful knockback like it's a fucking NES game still

And let's not talk about how awful the sound design is. Why does the entire game sound like it's in an echo chamber?

Shit, shit, SHIT game.

what do you mean. retarded for defending it or retarded for trashing it or retarded for buying a snes mini or retarded for buying a copy of megaman x to play on our snes mini? which is it? WHICH FUCKING IS IT?

i actually installed hakchi to get MMX OFF of my SNES classic more than anything.

at least you actually played it to know how shit it is. now gtfo.

Get out of here DSP, your opinions are terrible

But its not a basic movement. The whole game is designed to be able to be beaten without the dash. Only x2 and onward is the dash needed.

So like, at what point does it actually become good? I'm willing to give it another shot but it's just so bad from the get-go.

Is there a certain stage I should play to make it more fun?

I think you should turn off your SNES classic and possibly return it to the store.

Chill penguin. Get the dash, become god.

If you haven't lurked around enough to know what pretending to be retarded means on Sup Forums's board culture that means you are new here which in turn means that you should kill yourself because you didn't lurk moar.

Well there are 20 actual good games on here, one awful one won't ruin it for me.

143 but I've only be activated for a few months.

If you think MMX is awful, you're not going to get very far with the rest of the SNES classic's library

Except you're a memeing motherfucker

I've played almost every other SNES game before and they are all brilliant. Secret of Mana, Punch Out and MMX were the only ones I have never played before and X is garbage.

Ok so I got the speed dash which is shit because it's completely situational and now I have to take this massive robot suit which moves like a tank and again has massive knockback damage even from the smallest enemies.

bump

storm eagle is the shittiest most overrated megaman x song ever existed

Finally beat the Penguin stage thanks to the rewind feature. Awful level.

Nah that's Gravity Beetle. The guitar samples in X3 sound like garbage in general but that one is especially bad.

>enjoy
You can't unironically tell me you enjoy the non dash movement speed.

Zero is objectively cooler and more fun to play as than X.

This is an empirical fact backed up by numerous studies and published in respected peer reviewed scientific journals.

and a game series

>every level is just several hallways, each featuring 2 different kinds of enemy at most
>decent music in an awful soundfont (yeah, I said it)
>boomer kuwanger is the worst thing ever
>the spider boss of sigma 1 is the absolute WORST FUCKING THING EVER
>bosses are either obnoxious with buster or jokes with their weakness
Yeah, game's not good.

>X is Y
>I'm not going to say why
>I'm not going to say how
>I'm not going to compare
>I'm not going to suggest
>I'm not going to produce an argument
Why is Sup Forums full of whiny fucbois

The trick to the spider boss is

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_Leg

MMX1 is overrated for real though. People like to jerk it off as one of the greatest things ever made because of that shitty Egoraptor video and nostalgia, but X2 improves the series in every possible way.

I'm going to have to disagree with that, will you accept my 20 page dissertation next tuesday?
