Summer is for flat chests. And so are Autumn, Winter and Spring.

>>539777227 (OP)
Inti is very out of touch when it comes to how the perfect gf for a gamer should looks like.

If X Dive had ever gotten an English dub, I would've wanted Leviathan to speak in a heavy Southern Belle accent.

>>539777227 (OP)
>The word Sonic being in the OP
These are the darkest times for /mmg/. Yes even darkest than when we lost our Yohane rights.

>>539778332
This is why "be careful what you wish for" is timeless.

>>539778332
Why are you acting like its the first time those two series OFFICIALLY crossed over?

I take Cougar over...
>>539752991

>>539779475
Remeber what happened the last time those series crossed over?

>>539779475
To be fair, a game is a lot more accessible to the public. Archie comic, specifically the crossover stuff, get maybe a handful of fanart in its lifetime, but I'm already seeing a lot more thanks to Crossworld, and it's only from a leak.

>>539780092
I'll I'm seeing is the usual stuff at the usual amount...but it would suck to see Starforce lose it's thunder to yiff racers:clap for every cameo you see.

>>539779475
Why are you acting as it it wasn't a bad thing back then just like how it is now?

>>539780481
Anon starforce doesn't even have a release date beyond 2026 yet or even a finished english trailer

>>539780592
>season pass pack is sold separately

>>539781317
You said something similar when X dive was announced Brian!

>>539781317
>Capcom will gauge interest for new (Classic) game
Let it flop, no more classic

>>539780092
I mean there was also Smash Bros.

>>539781317
Shut up, Proto Dude.

>>539782172
Cute

>>539783823
Yeah, but that's the other side of the coin. It wasn't Sonic dragging down Megaman, that was Sonic leeching out Mario's reputation. Aura farming as the zooms zooms call it.

I wish there was more stuff with this cutie.

Almost that time.

>>539792590
Some people claim that Card-en-Ciel's Switch 2 edition is meant to be that revival announcement at TGS but surely not, right?

>>539792590
The announcement was CeC Switch 2 edition and I don't care for it or Majogami so not really as far as Intishit is concerned.

>>539793080
>>539794091
Hilarious. You thought it was something, turns out it was nothing.

>>539792590
Maybe some details about the SF collection.

>>539792590

>>539797767
>now

So how upset was /mmg/ about the Sonic Crossworlds news? tbqh im a sonic fan and even i was a little upset. I hate westoid developed games and am worried about the fact megaman's biggest new content in quite a while isn't in a nip game.

>>539798610

>>539798610
Couldn't care less about sanic or kart slop.

Unfortunately, we know her mom is the mother elf.

>>539798610
I'll buy the game for megaman.

Copen's descendants?

>>539800103
No it isn't.

>>539800103
The hell do you mean mother elf

>>539798610
A lot.

>>539800835
The dark elf he sealed away. The guardians were kinda byproducts.

>>539798610
why do you have a picture of me?

>>539800607
The dude fucks robots, so unless Null or Elfie have wombs you're looking to Mytyl to continue the family line.
To be fair to Mytyl, she very clearly does want to and in large numbers.

>>539801312
No they weren't

>>539798610
So would you be happier if Mega Man wasn't set to appear in the game? I know it's parroted around the net but I don't believe it until I see it.

>>539802118
Yes!

>>539803308
Alright, why?

>>539803152
this thing is pretty fun

>>539800607
Lola, stop coping and make PuzzmiX 2.

>>539798610
That game is developed by Segay's arcade division, not westoids.

>>539803152

>>539803470
This for the next OP

>>539803470
I don't see the appeal.

>>539803470
This actually looks nice, would buy.

>>539802118
That's a good question that I've been thinking about, and the answer is I really don't know. I just have really mixed feelings about it overall.

>>539804305
The way I see it, it can be easy to be angry at Capcom for not putting out new entries, but I don't think it's necessarily fair to other developers who might just want to put the blue bomber in as a cameo or DLC. That's just kind of irrationally being angry at people who've got no say in what projects the higher ups at Capcom are pushing forward.

>>539804480
I'm not a fan of Sonic but I don't see a reason to be upset about crossovers. I just don't buy or play the game if it doesn't catch my fancy.

>>539811590
That specific one takes a battering and asks for seconds though.

Why did Asimov raise Gunvolt to respect non-septimals and then do a sudden 180? I think Tsuda wanted a dramatic twist ending and figured out the story later.

>>539815867
I don't know how Reimu actually is, because fanon is bullshit. Like, Sakuya is a lol so random weirdo that sometimes gets serious, not a stoic maid, so for all I know Reimu may just be a giant pervert.

>>539811523
Sonic eraser chads it's time

>>539814730
I think it was properly foreshadowed that he's a piece of shit when he went "nah just kill the innocent girl being used by Sumeragi" in the first mission, plus all his missions just being random terrorist attack that maximizes casualties (random assault on media tower that does nothing of real note, plant a bomb in some plant).

I keep seeing people say MMX1 is the best Mega Man game. If I thought it was a 4/10 at best, is this franchise just not for me?

>>539817580
Yes, the rest of the franchise is not for you.

>>539817580
it depends on what you liked and didn't like about it

>>539817580
It's a bit overrated at this point imo, but it's still a damn good game. If you really think it's a 4/10, then yeah, you probably won't like the rest.

Trial-and-error in finding weaknesses, secrets hidden in ways that are obnoxious and seem borderline impossible to figure out on your own, holding B the entire game, not starting with the dash forcing you to do penguin first for movement to feel tolerable, Sigma boss gauntlet feeling insanely overtuned and destroying the pacing, boss weaknesses feeling random and not based on any sort of logic, bosses feeling like babby mode once you know their weakness but slightly too hard if you don't, tornado destroying the entire game, refighting all the bosses to pad out the game length, etc.

>>539814730
iX said that Asimov was suffering progressive brain damage from his septima (he was never as compatible as Gunvolt), so probably that.

>>539815353
Probably has a massive meltdown on social media.

>>539818157
Sounds like you don't like the platformer megaman formula in general.
Maybe give the Battle Network or Starforce series a try, those are RPG.

>>539818157
>Trial-and-error in finding weaknesses
the games get slightly better about this, but not in the way people generally like. Basically over time, it becomes easier to just rely on buster
>secrets hidden in ways that are obnoxious and seem borderline impossible to figure out on your own
Also can't help here. Finding secrets is my favorite part, especially when you get to later games where there are way more things to find. And the locations don't get less obscure either.
Maybe just use a guide?
>holding B the entire game
Here I can help somewhat. Switch buster to a shoulder button. It's much better to charge on a shoulder than face button. Also later games add auto-charge. (I think X8 might take it away?)
>not starting with the dash forcing you to do penguin first for movement to feel tolerable
Well this certainly gets fixed from 2 onwards
>Sigma boss gauntlet feeling insanely overtuned and destroying the pacing
X2/3 get even worse on overtuned fortress bosses IMO. But later games have mostly easier fortresses, other than probably X7 Red.
>boss weaknesses feeling random and not based on any sort of logic, bosses feeling like babby mode once you know their weakness but slightly too hard if you don't, tornado destroying the entire game
As mentioned above as the series goes on it become more and more feasible to just buster all the way. The weaknesses will always seem random, but I found that's okay so it's not obvious what order you should fight them in
>refighting all the bosses to pad out the game length, etc.
This is a staple of the franchise, so no avoiding it

Overall I'd say maybe use a guide and see if you like X2/3/4 better. Or it's also okay to move on

>>539818157
Trial-and-error is a big part of the fun of the MM platformers, and it's also seemingly your biggest complaint. So yeah, safe to say that either the series isn't for you, or only the non-platformers (Legends, EXE, Star Force) are.

>>539818303
The brain damage only comes from not having a physical form, some flavor text from I don't remember exactly where implied that Joule also was starting to suffer from that problem in GV2. Also he seems pretty in control of his actual brain functions and doesn't slip into cartoonish nonsense like in iX1 during the GV3 fight where he still has his body.

>>539819042
some of the better designed MM games had the stages also be "weak" to weapons. It put the player in an interesting spot: either waste weapon energy getting through the stage more easily, or save it all for the battle at the end

>>539818631
Maybe. It's a shame because I really want to like this series because there's so many of them, and I've tried getting into them more than once over the years, but every time I end up disliking it. The one I enjoyed most was MM2. Maybe I should try more of the classic games?

>>539818832
It sounds like it probably isn't for me then. I never use guides when playing games and refuse to look anything up until after I've beaten a game, because I strongly feel that if a game requires outside resources for basic completion, it's a hallmark of bad game design. I like games that reward observation, even if it's done in slightly obtuse ways, and reward the player for piecing together secret locations logically (like a suspicious gap in the map in a Metroid game hinting there may be a hidden room, for example). Some of the secrets in X (like the heart container in the flooded forest stage) just feel like they were made to sell Nintendo Power issues to me or something, unless I'm just missing something obvious.

>>539819371
There are always a couple stupid ones, like those "down the pits" like the heart tank you mentioned.
But yeah, maybe it's not for you, or give it a couple years and come back.

Wow some Megaman discussion. Sure hope some retard doesn't interject with some retarded fanfiction about adepts to derail and kill it.

holy crap, lois. PITS? like RAPE PITS?

>>539818157
>Trial-and-error in finding weaknesses
Fair. Some you can logic out, some you can't.
>secrets hidden in ways that are obnoxious and seem borderline impossible to figure out on your own
I mean, I was finding those "borderline impossible" secrets on my own as an idiot baby child, so that might be on you.
>holding B the entire game
You could bind it to a shoulder button, or just not charge the whole game. Pellets are good too.
>not starting with the dash forcing you to do penguin first for movement to feel tolerable
It's a thing X1 does. I think you're meant to feel weak at the start, then eventually stumble into Penguin's stage and get the unmissable dash, at which point the game open's up. And the 8 stages ARE somewhat designed to be beatable without the dash, mind you.
>Sigma boss gauntlet feeling insanely overtuned and destroying the pacing
Sigma's final form taking 1 damage from everything is completely bullshit, no argument there.
>boss weaknesses feeling random and not based on any sort of logic
You already said that.
>bosses feeling like babby mode once you know their weakness but slightly too hard if you don't
That doesn't sound like a problem.
>tornado destroying the entire game
Or that.
>refighting all the bosses to pad out the game length
That's a Mega Man staple. Like it or hate it, it can't be helped.

>>539820040
He said, interjecting with some retarded meta bullshit to derail and kill it.

>>539819989
It wouldn't really bother me as much if it was strictly optional stuff, but I missed the armor upgrade capsule my first several runs because it was so well-hidden and didn't realize I was doing the equivalent of a challenge run because of it. In retrospect it wasn't that out of the way, but there was also no real indication that anything should have been hidden there from what I remember.

Does Legends require any knowledge of X or Classic? I've always thought those games look great but felt like I needed to play prior games first.

>>539820759
>Does Legends require any knowledge of X or Classic? I've always thought those games look great but felt like I needed to play prior games first.
Nah, not really. There's just a wink and nudge reference here and there.

>>539819371
Your complaints should also apply to MM2, even more so with how erratic some bosses are and how trial and error things may get in the old games but if you liked that then sure try old classic games.

Piecing together secrets or exploits in games varies from game to game imo, once you figure out how a game or series work you'll understand its "videogame logic" and parse what they are asking the player to do. You are not accustomed to how megaman works but if you aren't in the mood to get through it just move on to something else.

>>539820759
You don't really need the armor if you figure out weapon effectiveness or vice versa. Collecting absolutely everything makes the game just become a power trip where nothing can stop you. Just try to get through with your own knowledge like you said and experiment with your weapons more.
A lot of people that aren't that into the series make the mistake to go buster only for the whole stages and only use them for bosses.

>>539820918
>Your complaints should also apply to MM2
Fair enough, it was many years ago now though so I may have been frustrated then as well and just powered through it. I do remember a couple bosses that pissed me off but not so much the secrets being too hidden or anything.

>once you figure out how a game or series work you'll understand its "videogame logic"
Also fair, but for some reason this game's videogame logic feels even less steeped in actual logic than most I've played.

>>539821367
And there it is.

>>539821346
I mean, it's also from almost 30 years ago. Video game logic changes.

>>539819371
Give megaman 11 a try. It's a very straightforward game that gives many cues on how enemies and bosses work, including visual hints if a weapon is effective or not.

>>539821559
Couldn't resist. That was the most blatant invitation to butt in.
You can go back to talking about your 30 year old game now.

>>539822549
I know you couldn't. You're basically NPCs.

>>539818157
About half the boss weaknesses are intuitive enough. For the ones who have Rolling Cutter as a secondary weakness it's obvious why.
>Chill Peng
Weak to fire, self-explanatory
>Mammoth
Strong winds blow out fires
>Mandrill
Low temperatures can slow electrons
>Kuwanger
His whole deal is stealth/speed, so the seeking missiles fuck him over.
>Sting Chameleon
I guess you could say Kuwanger's weapon cuts down the foliage he hides in.

>slows flying
>slows cold blooded creatures
>slows bug
I don't think it's nonsensical like elec>fire in Z, but it's not immediately apparent that mandrill would be weak to ice. There is always a guessing component to weaknesses

And there we have our answer.

He was invited to Daibu after all. Who knows if RiCO is on the other side

If there is another Gunvolt game, it will be an AU spinoff. Gunvolt's story is done with.

What else does your crystal ball tell you?

>>539828420
Actually cool image.

>>539832489
Gibril cosplaying as Leviathan.

>>539831139
They said they want to finish mainline Copen's story which is the sole reason he and Lola got recasted to the iX VAs, so no, it's not an AU, just the stuff missing between 2 and 3.

>>539833348
I eagerly await the horrible, hateful, and utterly fruitless things he'll do to stop anime winning.

>>539831139
It was done with in GV1 and that didn't stop Tsuda.

>>539833709
Let's be real the only direction his story is going is actually showing us him getting over his father's bullshit because being "right" means little if the timeline where you get your way is just a barren wasteland filled with bots that have long lost all purpose and a ballbot with a death wish ruling it all.

>>539834154
>>539833709
Either that or he kills Mytyl and/or dies.

>>539834307
I don't see that happening. Unlike all the other Gunvolt antagonists, he has a point and is redeemable. Nova, Zonda, and their ilk could not change for the better, he can.

>>539834154
He doubled down, man is gonna be destroyed by his own manic seething hatred of others.
And Gunvolt respects him.

>>539834534
He'll realize he was wrong and swap to killing only evil adepts like Eden.

>>539834534
Yes anon, he doubled down so hard that instead of killing his sister like his code would dictate he just ran away to kill random adepts because he couldn't bring himself to kill her, that's 100% the way a guy fully sold on his ideals would act and not in any way, shape or form fitting for a guy in severe denial.

>>539834470
Copen was killing random, defenseless adepts when he started out. He had a triple digit kill count before the events of the first game. Despite all his talk of saving humanity, he clearly prioritizes the destruction of adepts as evidenced by the alt future where he had beaten GV at the end of two and wiped out humanity to kill the adepts. In the Jap script, he was far more racist than any of the badguys. Like full on nazi shit about lesser races, degeneracy, vermin must be exterminated, etc. It's hilarious how the game wants to sell that Copen is redeemable, while someone like Elise deserved to die because she cyberbullied in a game to cope with her shit life.

Seeing BMZ worked I wish Inti and Sunsoft worked again with a Journey to Sillius remake

>>539836906
I'm not sure that's the game saying that and not just Gunvolt's warped sense of reality.

>>539834470
>he has a point and is redeemable
Applies to every antagonist except Asimov. Copen just happens to be the one enemy Gunvolt gives multiple chances to, but he's literally a worse person than someone like Desna.
