The franchise is for merch, not games!

>>719848205 (OP)
Blame Conman Inafune. He left Capcom in a hurry, and the Mega Man projects were all small scale, and no one wanted them. They didn't cancel any of his big projects since they were too far along and cost too much.

I blame Capcom more

Blame Inafune. He was the executive producer for all the MM projects at this time, he okay'd them, and he wanted them. The sales were in the dumpster at the time for MM games, and they weren't justified based on sales.

The biggest and most complex is MML3. Suddenly the project manager just ups and leaves when it's like 1/3 done. No one knows anything else about the project or what to do. The boss of the company jsut ups and leaves.

Inafune should have stayed on at least until he released MML3. I think that would have been a more amicable situation.

I would love to blame Inafune if not for the fact that the game was already publicly announced and had a fully functional prototype inexplicably unreleased out of spite by the time they decided to cancel it. Capcom is absolutely the final reason MML3 died.

>>719850346
Yes, blame Inafune. He left a project in mid-development turning it into chaos. Not the first god damn time he did it either, as he did the same shit with Fantasy Life i.

And he let Kaoi King of Pirates turn into dev hell and get cancelled. I think he ahs the "touch of death", rather than the midas touch.

back at ya buddy

To be fair, I didn't like the idea of using a literal who in Megaman legends 3. If someone buys this IP (I doubt it because fuck Capcom) I would like something else for the story

Rock is stuck on the moon. You play as a new character who gets caught up in this and obviously going to result in a final showtown on the moon and get him off.

I love Volnutt so much bros

>To be fair, I didn't like the idea of using a literal who in Megaman legends 3.
Same, from what I saw of it I kind of figured it was going to be shit if it hadn't been canceled.
Modern Capcom doesn't have the soul or talent to produce a worthy legends game and indie devs aren't going to put in that much effort just for capcom to chase them and try to throw them in prison.

Does the entire game have to be about getting him off the moon? Even so i'd rather have it be an existing character like Roll, Tron or Teisel. Felt like fanfiction with some new Mary Sue guy out of nowhere.

Honestly I don't know what I'd want from Capcom anymore. RE9 is already looking more focused towards something I don't care much for after 2 and 4makes were pretty good yet 7 and 8 were pretty average and too focused on spooky. I still need to try Onimusha some time, I only have experience with the Blade Warriors spinoff. Never cared for Monster Hunter. Kunitsugami isn't really my sort of game. The list goes on, really. I think the only IPs of theirs I'm seriously invested in anymore are Mega Man and Devil May Cry, and both are stuck on hiatus hell trying to find someone that hasn't left the company to head them.

>>719849069
I can blame Inafune for all the stuff getting cancelled back in the early/mid 10s but it's on Capcom after that. They could have easily found a director if they wanted to make Mega Man games

>>719855759
Same boat, anon. It's like Capcom only remembers they own these IPs when they need a PR bump or a quick cashgrab port. DMC5 was lightning in a bottle, and Mega Man 11 was decent, but it’s like they don’t know what to *do* with them anymore. Meanwhile, they milk RE to death and pour money into multiplayer trash no one asked for. I'd even take a proper Battle Network legacy sequel or something just to feel SOMETHING again. Maybe Kamiya can pick up the scraps once he's done being mysterious about his “future plans.”

>>719855923
Also with modern dev cycles, it takes 5-8 years for a new game to come out. You can't remain attached to a series after a decade. You need 2-3 years of games to really build up a fanbase. I think AAA games were making themselves irrelevant.

trust the plan

>>719857593
I won't trust shit after Dragon's Dogma 2. They can shove the great value Megaman up their asses because I know it will suck

>>719857593
Already debunked

>>719848205 (OP)
Friendly Reminder that Capcom was about to buy Marvel in the 90s but they didn't because of superiority complex.

>>719857593
A game can make allusions to a game series without it being literal.

>>719849069
It has been a decade and retards are still unable to accept its the conmans fault.
