So now that Mega Man X9 is confirmed to be in development, what do you want to see?

I want to see what happened with the ending on X8.
Ending on Axl being set up to be infected could be a neat story hook. Although Axl was always more fun to play than X or Zero.

Haters btfo

How's this for an X9 plot: The New Generation Reploids continue to be mass produced just like in the ending to X8, as the human government sees immense promise in how they can shift form and specs simply by having the right data. They figure that they can get away with casualties because the Maverick Hunters will just be there to save the day anyway. They fight a couple of bosses, and some new generation reploids even take the form of old X villains like Sigma or Gate to do battle with the trio Therefore having "Sigma" in the game and a couple of throwbacks for the anniversary while not contradicting canon and they continue this until Axl eventually reveals himself to be evil. The government orders X and Zero to take him down, and there are two endings whether you kill Axl or not. I was also kicking around some ideas about Axl's origins like making him be based off of some old designs by Dr. Light or something, but that idea isn't as developed as the rest.

>Post X4 """""Characters"""""
Oof.

Attached: 1513383280016.png (749x800, 438K)

Ok so I sorta get how X5 straight up shows you Sigma is the bad guy from the get go rather than doing the increasingly less believable "mystery villain working from the shadows angle who turns out to be Sigma"

But why did X6 and X7 then forget that Sigma was an established thread and do the mystery angle again as if X5 never happened

In a word? Scope. I mean it's only provable once; in Command Mission, but we are made to assume maverick incidents happen without Sigma's involvement between the games.

X7's Red Alert were mavericks of a completely different sort before Axl flipped; being vigilantes rather than revolutionaries. Also the games really wanted to treat it like X5 was a final death to the point Gate had to resurrect Sigma. Even though I believe the only game that properly established finality of Sigma's destruction was X3.

Attached: X CMX smear.png (1139x884, 500K)

Glad you brought up X3 because that always bugged me. Isn't Sigmas software deleted at the end of X3? How the fuck is he up and running in X4?

That could have been explained if capcom didnt drop their 'Is willy still alive?' foreshadowing they were doing since X2 to X6

I got 4 possible handwaves for that.

That would be cool but I don't think Capcom is confident right now in doing such thing.

I like it desu

I honestly don't like the CM armor too much. In particular, I don't like how they messed with his helmet, I'm not really too fond of all the white lines and I feel the belt is unnecessary. Also, the knuckles are a bit much.

At any rate, they won't bring this back. The plain blue design contrasts well with the more complicated designs of the armor upgrades.

Imagine having SHIT TIER TASTE

Alia was never a combat Reploid in the first place. Her being playable in X8 was just a minor treat and not meant to be taken seriously. If the Navigators really were that strong, do you really think they'd be Navigators? With how severely understaffed the Hunters are?

This, he only got X1 right, the rest is a disgrace.

x5>x2>x4>x1>x6>x3>x7>x8

Clang clang the robots.

A, split the timeline and say "The Zero series connects to the X series, but from earlier games; This one continues onward into 22xx alternately from Zero"
This lets them actually have some more umph to the story because there's an actual question of "What is going to happen?" They can do stuff and people won't just know "none of this will stick or last since the future is pre-ordained", but there might be actual consequences.

B. Have a villain besides Sigma. Focus more on the government corruption and issues with people at the top having megalomania and trying to usurp control for themselves, some more villains like Redips and Lumine.

C. More friction between "Old generation" reploids and newer, more high tech reploids who are superior to the older series ones.

Would you consider the robot creators perverts for building the female models with vaginas, or would you consider it offensive to robots for them to NOT have built them with vaginas?

D. More humans.

They kind of learned their lesson when it came to too many Mega Mans running around too. I do think they'll try their hand at a 3D classic game though. Not a full on triple A title but something a bit mid-scaled.

Just throw out all the New Generation Reploid bullshit and start over from scratch. It was never an interesting story arc to begin with.

>Check out these new Reploids who have unparalleled adaptability and abilities!
So what Reploids were like to classic series robots then.
>They can go Maverick at will!
Which is exactly what all the original eight Mavericks did in the first game.
>Axl is the prototype of these Reploids and he's also the strongest among them!
Which is what X is to Reploids as a whole.
>Rebellion against humanity!
They've been doing this since the fucking beginning.

There's nothing new here. All this is just a rehash of what the previous games did. They even brought back that worthless fucker Vile.

why should we care for zeroes bimbo love interest when she's going to just get killed off horrifically before the zero series?

When you looked past all the gimmicks and awful backtracking/grinding required for 100% (That 100% trophy made me quit the whole platinum journey then all of x7 combined)

He literally did a better job fighting X and zero in 1 than Sigma did. At least he killed on of them.

You only like him because of nostalgia. There's nothing special or unique about him beyond being a Boba Fett clone.

No jetbike stage.
You can have a jetbike section or two as long they're well done this time, but not fucking jetbike stage.

I have no nostalgia.
I never played an X game until last summer when I got the collections.
He just looks really cool and that's all I need to see before liking a character.

That was thanks to his custom Ride Armor. Once that was taken care of, he was weak as shit. If anything, the one who deserves praise is the one who built that Ride Armor.

Now this is acceptable taste. Would put X4 higher but it's decent.

it's just funny to see her go after Zero and him just not being aware or caring

Hey, Sigma had a giant ass robot for his head, I think we can cut vile some slack for having a robot ride. Piloting those things is kind of his forte, like how a Gundam pilot needs one.

I thought that official art showed him without hair, I still think it looks great on him

X1>X4
I haven't bothered to finish X2 and X5
I haven't played X3 and X6

One thing about sigma is they keep overfocusing on his "Virus" angle for his plans. His plots are best when reploids seem to have their anti-virus up to date so he has to work via charisma and plotting (1 and 4 for example).

Otherwise it just tends to devolve to "Sigma's spreading his virus around again!" for a plot. Him manipulating the repliforce into breaking off of their own free will is drastically more compelling than if they just went "the repliforce has been infected with a virus!" as an example of how this works.

Unknown. There is no art (even concept art) depicting him with hair.
It's assumed he does since Rock had hair, but since X was built with combat in mind, Dr Light could've left hair out and the helmet being permanent. Supposedly there's concept of X having hair in a megaman zero art book, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. The closest picture we have to X having hair is from that super old unofficial X manga that had X and Rock in the same world where X had the hots for Roll (who was seen naked a lot). There is art of him without his helmet with a weirder thing under it, but that was made for action figures so is most likely the way it looks just for help with crafting the figure (picture attached). No animations or dialogue imply X having hair.
Long paragraph ik but I've literally been researching this all week and I've been driven close to the bring of madness trying to find out if X has hair or not

X's combat capabilities were designed with a "just in case" mentality, since after years of endless conflict, Light realized that it was probably inevitable. I mean, even if Earth was at peace, he knows for a fact that there are asshole space robots out there too.

I think the manga also went with that as the actual confirmed story for serges.

Zero 3 always rubbed me the wrong way
Zero seemed like a direct sequel to X, then all in one game they did some Elf thing with Zero and a Not Wily saying Zero was a fake all along. it's like they did 2 and thought WTF WHAT IF LIKE X, THERE WAS A REAL ZERO BODY

Idk, it felt like it did a 180 and just retconned all of Zero series. At least ZX made no attempt of hiding at making it an entirely new Megaman series

Zero 2 annoyed the fuck out of me how they did some foreshadowing about the mother elf seeming familiar and obviously being sentient, but they just kind of forget she ever exists after 2.

Fuck man, 2 feels like such goddamned filler, you could legitimately cut it out of the zero series and go from 1 to 3 without feeling like anything was lost.

what happened to inafune

Not caving in to Inafune's sexual fantasy of having Zero (the Mega Man he wanted) kill the version he was forced to design because Capcom didn't want to stray too far from the Classic looks is the best decision Capcom did on the subject, so you can go fuck yourself.

Nobody gives a shit about Legends, only Inafune had a creator's love for it, that series never sold well.

Got his company absorbed by Level-5 after so many failures and vanished ever since, probably has a desk job with no public appearances.

After Demake2 and DMC5, I hope Crapcom burns.

That's not dr. weil.
6 was actually good in that Issoc was a legitimate independent player in the game who looked to be creating a disaster by egging on gate SOLELY because he believed firmly 100% that zero could stop anything thrown at him and would be hailed as a hero for doing so.

It can be infected by Lumine, that was the whole bait and switch from X8, it was Lumine fucking things up, Sigma was just a setup.

Sigma's a virus man, if he's around on a single floppy disc all it takes is someone puttiing it into their reploid comp to get him back again.
8 was pretty final with Sigma's death. they'd just made what are essentially macintosh reploids so sigma can't just bodyjack people anymore and his remains are essentially crushed underfoot by lumine.

X2 had been foreshadowing that X would go evil at some point and have to be taken down by Zero. Its something that was built up from 2 to 4 heavily, so don't act like its just something arbitrary.

It makes all the foreshadowing and X's entire mental arc pointless (him basically forcing Zero in 4 to promise to kill him if he ever went maverick and him having an emotional breakdown grappling with just what "is" being maverick).
If you don't want him to be evil in the zero series okay, but there NEEDED to be some payoff to that in the X series instead.

Robot hating human trying to intentionally stage robot attacks as essentially false flag attacks so he can rile up humanity to rise up and kill all robots.
Unless he's actually a robot that looks like a human trying to get humans to attack robots so they can kill all humans instead.

If they do another X game it's gonna be a reboot.

They tried that with maverick hunter X and it bombed.
Granted, that was because they released it solely on PSP.

why is alia more lewd in spandex than without spandex?

Is the brown girl on the left suppose to be Roll?

How can you be so sure?

There is no roll. Though she's light's biological daughter, so she fits that role.

That one and powered up were great.

I really hope X keeps his VA, I enjoy him more than the voice in MVCI

>In order to set Zero apart from what had come before, Inti Creates decided to take a radical approach with the game, pitting the new protagonist against the old. While the two had clashed before, with an alternate story path in X5 even resulting in a fatal showdown, Mega Man Zero's battle was meant to bring a sense of finality to the conflict.

>"The main concept that we wanted to explore was Zero killing X," says Aizu. "We wanted to come up with something really sensational. There was something about Mega Man Zero at first that we felt wasn't quite right — it wasn't true to our idea of the character. So we tried to resolve that by coming up with this dramatic concept.

(...)

>Within the team, there was no resistance at all," he recalls. "In fact, right up until we went to master the game, the plot played out with Zero defeating X.

"However, Capcom as a company... it didn’t serve well for the company to have a series in which X is the hero and then another title where that same hero gets killed off. And so because of that, at the very, very, very end, like right before we sent the game to be manufactured, we had to change it so that the X that Zero kills was actually a copy. We didn’t have time to change the game play, though, so just the story changed slightly."

Now now, while Inafune a shit, that retardation was borne out of Inti Creates

Inafune didn't even design X. He designed Zero, and asked a colleague to design X because he knew Capcom would reject Zero as the new Rockman, so decided to submit Zero as a partner character. And it worked exactly as he planned.

possibly heavily based on him.

because Zero is HOT.

Why would anyone want a new X game when the Zero series closed the book on that timeline?

this is why I would like them to literally declare a timeline split, that the series goes into the Zero series at a set point (Lets say 6) and the ones they're making now are in their own timeline.

What is ZX? Also cuz X8 was actually pretty good.

The X8 VAs did add a more mature sound, but didn't they all retire from voice acting ages ago?

As for MVCI, I didn't mind the voices. It sounded very 90's, but at the same time, well performed.

>zx
>Power rangers Megaman
We don't talk about that.

Hopefully now that Inafune is gone X gets the respect he deserves.

Except it was actually good. Shut your face.

ZX was actually pretty decent. Shame the series ended on a cliffhanger ~12 years ago that will never be resolved.

X as a gunship with a bunch of pantheons sitting on him as gunners is surprisingly adorable.

Can we stop with the "X1 was best" meme already

It's anniversary art made for the 25th anniversary. it's just a little odd because Axl is on there with anew design and there's no reason for him to be.

Which one is better?

Timeline 1: Classic Good Ending - Light and Wily never create X and Zero.
Timeline 2: X series - Light and Wily create X and Zero. Something happened that caused Dr. Light's entire lab to become lost to time within a hundred years until Cain finds it.
Timeline 3: Zero/ZX series - Elf Wars happen. Zero seals himself and re-awakens a hundred years later.
Timeline 4: Legends series - Humanity somehow dies out with the exception of one, becoming replaced by Carbons.

Alia had at least some combat capability, since she canonically murdered Blizzard Wolfang in X6.

yeah, I was always confused how they didnt even incorporate him being in one form or another wily, even in hidden or implicated canon

Presumably, it's because the Zero series was made after X6 and they didn't want two series with an overwhelming focus on Zero.

If it's 3D I'm not buying. Sprites only motherfuckers.

The twist was ironically enough that having Sigma's DNA made them less like Sigma because as it turns out the Sigma has true free will like X does. Lumine played off Sigmas ego by pretending they were all Sigma clones.

Presumably that means they too can choose to "infect" things.

Objectively X4 and X2

I want very obviously Canadian Signas back.

I actually like X5 though the difficulty of the fist Sigma stage bosses goes through the fucking roof for some reason.

>two out of the three remaining guardians forget the main villain is going on a rampage in their home and want to fight zero in their toku transformation robot forms instead

I love how shitty the backstories for the fights are in the fortress stages.

FLAT PALETTE

X1=X4>X3=X2>X5>X8>X6>X7

X8 is the absolute bottom line for a mildly above average experience before it just nosedives down into the mediocrity of X6 and X7.

LEAVE IT TO ME

>foreshadowing about the mother elf seeming familiar and obviously being sentient, but they just kind of forget she ever exists after 2.

Whut? She appears all through 3 and is the reason why Omega is even that much of a threat. Her reason for even crapping out on Omega in the end is that she recognizes who the actual Zero is and fucks off in the end. If you mean doesn't appear after 4? Good riddance, 2 and 3 focused too much on cyber elves and it was great to go back to Zero vs Neo Arcadia shenanigans again.

If there was one game Capcom could fuck up to totally undo all the good karma they recently brought on themselves, it'd be a new Megaman X.

It's probably because no one really knows what to do with him. Honestly, X's character would have benefited tremendously if they didn't literally detail the whos, whats, when and whys of his creation from the first game on in. We pretty much know everything about X, so there's nothing to really explore about his character.

We know all there is to know about Rock and he doesn't suffer this problem.

not to mention that it's for his figure - we already got zero and x so it's him now

I don't get why people think Axl is some "extra" nowadays when he has appeared in more games, has been recognized a lot by both Capcom and Japanese fans, and appeared in other media, yet you have posters here thinking he only appeared in X7

Because X is cool

Because he's the crystallization of everything that went wrong with the X series. Almost.

He's almost as bad as a Sonic OC

that's more to X7 itself than him, Command Mission and X8 showed he can really be done well

Nah not really. We almost got on ein X6 but they actually used it masterfully.

That's Zero

No they fucking didn't. In Command Mission, he barely said or did anything of value, with his only real function being to justify why Redips can do what he does. And X8 was just a retread of themes and concepts that had been prevalent in the series from the start anyway. Axl adds very little to the series.

As much as it bothered me how Zero ended up hogging the spotlight, it's also technically true that he's really the most interesting element of the series. Not his character, his character is boring as fuck. But most of the actually interesting story elements are associated with him.

X's problem is that we pretty much know everything about him. No mysteries to solve, no dramatic revelations. He is X, the final creation of Dr. Light and the original model for all Reploids. Where the fuck do you go from there?

>Where the fuck do you go from there?

To the right. While jumping and shooting.

Attached: X7_xgreet.jpg (502x770, 145K)

Capcom kinda fucked up by putting zero in x7, and by making x7 such a shit game, x’s arc should have looked like this

> X is saved from vile by zero X then becomes as strong as zero
>Then the whole reviving and saving zero stuff happens
> then we learn about the virus
>X fights zero defeats him and turns him back to normal
>Zero goes to sleep to then awaken foe his own series
>meanwhile this Axl kid shows up
>Axl is saved by X
> Now X is the one who will make sure axl becomes stronger

But instead zero was in X7 so X just seems kinda tired there not wanting to fight anymore

To add to this, in ANY other halfway decent story, it would start with X being a big blank. He doesn't know anything about himself, we don't know anything about him. Then, as the story progresses, we learn that he was the final creation of Light and that all Reploids were based off him. This would be an interesting story arc. They completely fucked up by starting the very first game off with a message from Light explaining exactly what X is and why he was created, as well as having the manual explain that Cain replicated his design to create the Reploids. They fucked his character over from the very beginning by leaving absolutely nothing to the imagination concerning his character background.

Compare to Zero, who had infinite story potential. When they hinted that he was a creation of Wily (which really could have been a lot more subtle), that was when things started getting really interesting.

Nigger, fuck you. I don't need several games about X training Axl and raising him up to be the new hero or whatever. As far as I'm concerned, Axl is the worst of the three. He has literally zero chemistry with any other character and he's just a walking plot device who came outta nowhere, regurgitating story concepts that existed since X1.

Axl was literally about "muh new gen but obsolete but fuck that shit I'll be there because that's what being a hero is all about"

>zero chemistry
>literally the most relaxed vs the serious and the more hearty

do you even id, ego, superego

Honestly I think putting in more concrete connections between the two series really only made things worse for both. When it was just X it was so vague a connection that we have no idea how far in the future we are. Now that we know Wily is making this and all that Virus shit there's pretty concrete evidence that no matter what happens things are going to end badly for Rock's timeline. And then with what we know of the Zero series, X's timeline has a bad end too. And then we know the Zero series is fucked because of ZX who are fucked because of legends.

Time lines are retarded.

Just because you label or point out parallels doesn't mean you wrote an interesting dynamic.

that's the dynamic though, we even see those in both the comic and x8

Yeah, that's great and it's not a fucking argument. You can reference Freud all you want, but X's interactions with Axl aren't interesting. Zero's interactions with Axl aren't interesting. X wanting to save Zero at any cost to the point of being willing to fight him in X5 was interesting. Zero having absolute faith in X, always believing that X will persevere is interesting. Axl has nothing. Not a single bit of worthwhile dialogue or interaction with anyone.

That's because they literally were just starting about it in X8 but then the series got canned. Those two managed to get those right after several games' worth of familiarity.

>people here played every game and want a direct follow up to x8
>people everywhere else probably played one snes x game and one ps1 x game and just want a rehash
Get ready to have your x8 conclusion barely tie in with whatever x9 does I guess.

We've been with this character for three games. Three games of nothing. X and Zero have the excuse in that they debuted on the SNES, and up until fifth generation of consoles, side scrollers weren't really known for having detailed stories and character interactions. Axl was in a fucking JRPG and he was still a whole lot of nothing in that too. Although, I'll admit that the story and character interactions in that game as a whole were pretty fucking bland as fuck all around.

I know you actually like Axl, even though I can't possibly understand why, but he's a really bland and worthless fucking character and this whole New Generation Reploid plotline is garbage.

Again, it's because they literally are going to kickstart it in X8. X7 was shit and CM was pretty much a spin-off.

also from a gameplay standout Axl is literally better Bass.

>that's the dynamic though

No that's the outline of the dynamic, the writing still needs to be there to support it.

I don't even remember how 8 ended.

But X1 is actually the best one

>Axl is the new Nero

I recognize Ciel and Aile, but who are the other chicks?

Maverick Hunter X at least implies that X has "untapped potential" which is why Sigma becomes obsessed with figuring out what it is so Reploids can stop being shitty clones of him. Presumably if they continued with that shit Sigma would become obsessed with Zero instead after learning of the origins of the Sigma virus yadda yadda yadda.

Later games bring up the concept that X and Zero aren't even special any more and are just old (Like real old) reploids trying to slap some sense into the newer generation ones that think humanity should bow to them. Which is why Axl is so important because he's one of the few that actually looks up to the Maverick hunters.

And in X8 it was still nothing. I mean, honestly, in terms of character interactions, X8 was probably even worse than the PS1 games. There's this one piece of dialogue that really, truly highlights how hilariously bad X8's writing was. To paraphrase:
>X: "Darn!" (X suddenly bitching for no reason)
>Alia: "X? What's wrong? The mission's only begun!" (Alia stating the obvious)
>X: "That's right, something something another conflict" (X whining about war because this is what his character's been reduced to now)
>Alia: "Something something concern"
>Axl: "Heh, something something just the thought of taking down those Mavericks makes my trigger finger itch!" (Axl being a one-note character as usual, his dialogue being written purely to upset Alia)
>Alia: "Axl!"
>X: "No, he's right Alia. We need to finish this quickly for peace or whatever" (What the fuck was even the point of this exchange)
Now, obviously, I didn't remember all the finer details, but this entire dialogue was so goddamn superfluous and stupid that it really stood out to me. And nearly all the dialogue, especially the ones that involve Axl, were like this. By X8, Axl's character was reduced to "idiot simpleton who likes to fight". This ends up meshing pretty poorly with X and Zero, whose characters are more or less designed to outline the misfortune and pain associated with these conflicts.

Kalinka from classic 4 on the left

Russian McLolivich was Dr Cossac's kid Kalinka

From a gameplay standpoint Axl is worthless because nothing in the game is made significantly easier by the ability to shoot in any direction. There aren't many vertical challenges in X8. The X-Buster and Z-Saber are perfectly adequate for dealing with everything, AND they do it better due to better damage. X8's level design wasn't well-balanced at all. X had raw power and Zero had versatility and maneuverability. Axl got the dregs. You'd only use Axl if you wanted to deliberately gimp yourself.

The difference between Bass and Axl is that MM&B was ACTUALLY DESIGNED with Bass in mind. There are parts of the game that are deliberately made easier or harder depending on whether you're using Mega Man or Bass. But that sort of thoughtful level design doesn't exist in X8, rendering it all meaningless.

Legends should be self contained. We probably haven't even reached the events that create the Elder system yet and I hope they don;t for a looong time.

What ever creates the ruins, refractors and the reaverbots it should exist only in Legends canon.

This is a good post

How popular or unpopular is the idea of retcon the X timeline and make that Zero/ZX events never take place.
Leaving the rest of events intact though.

In the early days, probably a little bit rubbery. They probably got it down by the time they started making female reploids though. Definitely by Zero and more than likely by Command Mission.

I wonder what the process to make girl bots was like. Someone had to spearhead that movement. And even moving past the bodies, how much of a reploids personality is programmed and how much is formed organically. So many questions.

>Is there a factory that just pumps out reploids?
The intro level of X2 was one of many.

>What happens when they come off the line?
If you play the intro level of X2 there is a section in the beginning where you can actually wait and see a flying type enemy get assembled using some kind of replicator-ish technology. Once it is fully assembled it attacks you right off the line.

>Are they made to order?
The maverick leaders seem to be similar to the robot masters of the classic series, they are made with a specific perpose like running a power plant, mine, etc. So yeah, they are probably made to order, at least before they go maverick.

>Who's paying for it all?
Judging by the fact that extreme levels of automation have been a thing since the classic series, I would assume they live in some kind of post-scarcity society. It would also seem mavericks have their own production facilities as implied by X2, so it's not so much an issue of money but control of resources. Just about every X game has mines and power plants for levels, which are always under Maverick control at some point.

It's not that easy. Some degree of surgery is necessary. You can't just tear off an arm and stick a metal one on. Nothing works like that, and as far as I know, nanotech isn't all that prevalent in Legends.

X series is melodramatic and cyberpunky, but that's what makes it cool. Shit, we need more of a Cyberpunk/society is collapsing vibe from the X series. That might be cool.

Intro level of 2 was a Mechaniloid factory. It's different from Reploids. Apparently, the best Reploids are all custom made from the start. There are some mass-produced models, but they can't do much. New Generation Reploids were such a boon because you can mass-produce them and yet have any of them perform specialized tasks.

I'm just making assumptions here because they don't really elaborate on much of anything in the MM universe, but it would seem that the classic series was taking place in an era that was already extremely dependent on robotics and automation.
There was still some sort of economy, if you read the enemy descriptions in the art section of the MM legacy collection it often states that many of the enemies have flaws and quirks because Wily was taking cost cutting measures. He was somehow funding his pissing match with light out of his own pocket.

I get what you're saying, but that point is sort of up in the air because the reploid/mechanaloid stuff didn't really come about until the OVA anime in Maverick Hunter X, which already fucked up MMX cannon as Dr. Cain was killed by a nuke when he was around for at least two more games in the original versions. Before then all the enemy robots were just "mavericks/reploids". Later installments in the X series use that differentiation, but some argue most of those aren't cannon because technically the series was supposed to end with X5.
Once again I'm just making assumptions, the X storyline is a fucking mess after X4. For all we know we're both wrong since it seems like the devs don't even care.

Attached: Flame Cock.jpg (957x900, 211K)

We get bits and pieces here and there. Sigma was designed personally by Cain to be the greatest Hunter. Most of the Reploids we see throughout the series were deliberately designed that way from the start to fulfill very specific roles. Gate personally designed all his Reploids.

Like I said, you do have some mass-produced Reploids built on factory lines, but the greatest Reploids were more or less hand-built with extreme care. The only mass-produced Reploids to feature in the series as a boss are the ones in X8, due to being NG Reploids. Other examples of mass-produced Reploids are the Ride Armor wielders in X1 and the rank-and-file Repliforce soldiers in X4, but their combat capabilities aren't much better than standard Mechaniloids, and they probably aren't that intelligent either.

I think the closest we ever got is the first part of command mission. You investigate a lab and find capsules belonging to all the Reploids you fight in the game. The implication is these guys are all only a few months old at best and went nuts when they were made. Of course the twist is they were built that way and it was all a setup

I'm in agreement with you there, it is certain that there are lower quality mass-produced reploids, and the ones you typically fight as bosses are special made, high performance types.

8 was fucking horrid

I never played it, X7 made me stop playing the series for a while and never got around to X8 or CM

Serges and the other scientist guy from X6 are Wily

I feel like Sheep man was a long drive for a vulgar joke.

X8 was "...better" but only slightly.

literally just a reference to a famous scifi novel

X2>X1=X4>X3>X8>X5>X6>X7

I thought that was supposed to link it to Zero

>I want peace but these stupid fuckers keep starting shit maybe I should just kill all of them like Axl says

Even then some would argue it was just as bad as X7 but for different reasons. The endless gimmick levels and metal grinding made me hate it, but I think a lot of that was because it was made during that time when devs had a boner for putting RPG elements in every fucking game for absolutely no reason.

That's not what happens in Zero and you should feel bad for thinking that way

>X2 over X1
The only thing X2 has over X1 is that it is more challenging. It's a worse game overall still.

X8 was bland. No care was put into the stages or character balance.

You'll only have Splashwoman and you'll like it.

Fucking christ just let a guy have an opinion

What kind of animal would even fit a female maverick? I think it would silly but also funny if they kept making the chick the water themed baddie so maybe a shark or something. We did an Octopus already so she can't tentacle rape herself.

X2's final levels sort of blow. Sad as it sounds X3 would be decent if Zero was actually useful in any way (Also make Godkarmacahine harder he's a joke)

I really love the second armor and how you can dash by default.

Well Splash Woman isn't so much animal themed as Mermaid themed. Maybe a female Maverick that's based on something else fantasy based, like Kali?

Classic Megaman doesn't do the animal thing as a suffix. They're all ____ MAN. X did ___ Animal.
