Holy shit, is this a real boss for Megaman 11?

No, it was a concept drawn up in the early stages. There are a lot of signs that Mega Man 11 was conceptualized as a second Mega Man 1 remake but they scrapped that idea for something with more of its own identity. I don't fault them for that but I would love to see old masters brought back with new designs somehow

It's the same damn design, just with more edges. "Edgier" if you will.

So a god-tier redesign is basically the same, but has the ever so slight details that make it "nuanced"?

Sadly, reboots probably do better than a game with "11" in its name. Good for them for doing something new, but they probably missed out on some money.

Holy fuck what did Miyamoto say when he saw the Rare design?
I'd pay a hundred bucks just to see the look on his face when comparing the two.

It's the easiest way not to piss off fans, I suppose.

It's the best kind of design though. You take something and rather then changing the spirit of it, you just add more details to freshen it up and modernize it without going into the realm of overkill (like some BN designs did).

Another example of this type of modernization is Rayman.

There's just one thing i dislike about the Origin and Legends redesign: the expression on rayman's face.
It's something the french do a lot, especially when attempting to make quirky and humorous designs, they fuck up the expression.
It always looks "weird".
Look at him.
He looks like a mix of concern, fear and trying to look happy?
The french always do shit like this, i call it "the failed pixar look".

Now that you mention it, I kinda see it. But that's not as bad the Gravity Falls car grill faces a lot of Western artists slip into their designs now. Even Hesse, as good of an artist as he is, is guilty of this weird looking shit

Alloy got fat.

i'd honestly laugh my ass off

It's an age old technique for cartoons used to cut costs by simplifying designs. Plus more details make the cartoon character look awkward. Have you ever even watched a Hanna-Babera? That shit was used all the time, this isnt some new age cal arts style bullshit

>Have you ever even watched a Hanna-Babera?
Well that's a really bad comparison.
It was considered shit and lazy back then, too.

but hanna barbera is one company vs hesse and other freelancers artists sharing simar traits

The entire Killer Instinct roster. Whoever came up with the split head idea for Eyedol is a genius.

I disagree, Eyedol looks like one of those generic mid bosses with the intellect of an infant now.

For your consideration

It's funny how much better he looks without an ass for a face.

The narrow visor is so sexy. Best Samus design by far.

Samus peaked in Super Metroid but your design is at least better than Other M's.

Looks too much like Dark Samus.

goddamn this is perfect, just modern enough without really changing Samus' suit

It's not even weird looking. It's just an old style cartoon grin that actually fits with Classic Sonic's design because he's heavily based on old cartoon characters like Felix the Cat. I really don't know why people sperg out so much about this since it's not even done in the same way "Calarts" styled cartoons do it where the grin takes up 80% of the face. Hesse's Sonic isn't even close to that.

That actually just looks bad too. Rhyperior is ugly as fuck but is at least memorable, this thing is not.

Reach elites were peak elites, everything after just looks goofy and they were clearly copying District 9 too much

Bless Rare

That's just a slightly altered Magmar

Only thing I'd change is having less glowing light parts, and maybe change the visor so it doesn't resemble Dark Samus so much. Otherwise yeah, it's fantastic.

>it just changes some colors

In all seriousness, regular knuckles doesn't look strong at all. He's the same short, noodle limbed body as all the other characters, and it looks ridiculous when he does strong shit. Same for Mighty.

But I agree with you tho

So, you'd like a knux in the vein of pic related?

a lot of what makes appealing design is simply having some contrast. left is rounded all around and looks like a marshmallow boy.
right adds just enough 'edge' without losing the initial point of the character and not going overboard to make him all edges

like how rare's DK has a few more angles plus stronger and more easily readable shapes to contrast a bit with the rounder shapes

this actually looks cool
