FTFY.

I drew robot master Spring Man in Ribbon Girl's clothes as was suggested the last thread. Should I post it?

Absolutely. I'd love to see it!

oh shit. did we reach bump limit while I was sleeping?

here you go.

Nice job, user! I've been waiting for someone to do this since I can't draw Springman for shit myself.

Thanks. This was actually my first time drawing him, so I'm glad you like it.

...

don't bully the cleaning bot

ribbon girl's color scheme really fits well with spring man's

DAY-CHAN DID SOME STUFF WRONG BUT HE STILL IS THE CUTEST!
GOOD MORNING, PEOPLE!

Never have I agreed with an OP more in my life.

good afternoon day-chan user

Good evening from the other side of the globe! How are you all doing today?

...

Mega Man X8 makes me so mad. They clearly got everything right and thought everything through. There's also a lot of fucking secrets to find and X, Zero and Axl all control very well

The voice actors are the same great ones from MHX/Command Mission too, and the story isn't totally incomprehensible or anything.

But then for how great everyone controls this time around and for all the things there are to do, the level design gives you the middle finger half the time by incorporating crazy gimmicks where you can do everything BUT platform

What the fuck is Gigabolt Manowar's stage

I agree 100%. X8 is a great game with great ideas that's bogged down with awful level design.

she's lured me into temptation and sin, that's what she did wrong

>and the story isn't totally incomprehensible or anything.

incomprehensible? no, but it's chock full of dumb incoherences and lack of self-awareness even for a jump 'n shoot man game, perhaps especially for a jump 'n shoot man game. you're supposed to be in awe of the protagonists figuring sigma is involved when you've seen the fucker get copied RIGHT AT THE INTRO MOVIE and then you have the completely dumb motif that a reploid that can go 'maverick at will' is some sort of rocket science and not WHAT MAKES A REPLOID (a reploid is capable of making his own decisions, if he can't make BAD decisions then he's just a programmed flunkie like the classic robot masters).

also sigma is gone for good because lumine said something that is never even remotely possibly construed to "THIS is why he can't come back".

pick your strengths for the game as you like but X8's plot is one of the silliest, most convoluted messes the series ever saw trying to act like it's hot shit when it's just a dog chasing its own tail. I'll go with X7's blandness for a story over this because even if it's just another "asshole army fights the hunter" rethread where everyone got infected unlike X4, at least it didn't behave itself like it was being revolutionary.

which also reminds me: what could have made for something interesting in X8, following the character beat of Axl wanting X's approval, is completely tossed aside and he finds out he's some prototype and we're not shown the scene or how he reached the conclusion.

good stuff!

The trailer/intro looked like the story would be awesome though

I think I'm finally starting to figure out the shadow racers in Battle&Chase.

I don't believe there is an input to make them appear, because they seem to appear at random even when I'm not pressing anything special or trying, so I think it's just random.

Also, difficulty increases each time you beat Wily and see the ending, even if the difficulty bar is at max, the AI becomes tougher, so if you want the secret parts, your best hope is to do it after beating Wily only once.
Highly recommended to get his engine first, it's OP.

At this point I only beat the first shadow racer and I know it's hopeless for the others, difficulty is at max now so winning a race while picking the hidden "?" for the secret parts is hopeless, let alone beating the shadow racers themselves which I can't.

Still would like to know if there is a better description to perform "rocket starts" on Jap sites because even after learning the technique I can only do it 1 time out of 10.

Post gameplay OCDs

I use less efficient weakness in MM3's fortress bosses just so I can listen to the OST longer.

what's with the hands at the bottom?

Ratings for Visuals, Sound and Challenge

I sometimes end up abusing the living shit out of my saves just to save that one extra life I usually don't even need later

I always save my etanks for Wily. No matter how many I have, 1 etanks or 9. I refuse to use em on anything that isn't the final Wily forms.

After my initial playthrough, I never played Mega Man X1 again outside of Maverick Hunter X. I'm sorry, but the dash being a starting ability in every other game has spoiled the shit out of me. Playing the beginning of the game without the dash and having to earn it makes me physically uncomfortable

>jumping through the door

...

Or maybe beating the shadow racers isn't so hard... i think you have to find the courses in which they're the weakest and exploit that.

also Rocket Start seem to be just like the english FAQ say but the timing is hard to learn, getting better at it

Were air-dashes a mistake

No, they are God's saving grace if done right.

Air-dashes are awkward and awful

Dash-jumps and Double-jumps are the Way

what a perfect segue to unveil round 4 of "who would win in a fight!" this time it's two plant based robot master with shield weaponry. One's Mexican and the other shitposts instead of getting a real job.
who will win? only the votes will decide, so actually freaking vote this time!

I like X8's armor, but it looks like it should have been some other Reploid's character design and not an armor for X.

The same could be said about CM X

Woody, you're not yourself when you're hungry. Have a snickers or something and calm your robotits

Nah, unless you mean his Ult Armor in that.

im not voting btw, i actlly want this to be fair

you vs the one she tells you to not worry about

That second one's Copy Bot, user.

My point still stands. Y'all need some chill.

>when no one notices it's you so you have to tell them
Go away copy bot.

i mean its not like id actually want to fight him anyway
i dont like the bastard but that doesnt mean i wanna fugn kill him

forgot the certificate of authenticity srry

Air dashing i's useful only if you're emulating the game on your phone with touchscreen controls.

emulating the game on your phone with touchscreen controls is a mistake

Good tier list
Shit tier list

That was the only game where they were acceptable in my opinion.

Forcing you to wall jump constantly to moving platforms typically placed over one hit kills and mapping the air dash to exactly the same button you have to mash to cling to walls is a very bad design decision.

I didn't know you guys disliked airdashes. I like em well enough.

They're a godsend in MGB

GV starts to get real good once you get the double jump ability.

>Plant Man in the lead
I'm laffin

>shovel knight and shantae are getting added to blaster master zero
MGVB DLC is gonna be insane

Shovel Knight is a slut

I'm going to like things you guys don't like and there's nothing you can do to stop me.

and a goddamn experienced one
one game=four campaigns each with their own playstyles

its like paying a hooker ten bucks for 3 days

Okay then, was not expecting them to go in that direction.

forgot the trailer
youtube.com/watch?v=VCKtO0HTgAk

but it would be awesome if mighty gunvolt burst became the next runbow or something
or if beck gets added to BM0 later on

but im seriously worried that the latter wont happen
it'd be a huge missed opportunity

I don't think I agree with that.
What exactly would Beck add to the game that the others don't already do along with their personal gimmicks?

The only way I could see him being unique is if he could use different weapons in the platforming sections outside the tank but I'm not sure the game can accommodate for that since no one else can.

im sure the devs could make that happen if they decide to go that route, the systems they've got it on can certainly handle it
but maybe beck could have a form of the custom shot where he could choose the shot style and the disappearance effect, or something along those lines

like in primary you could have homing and secondary you could have freeze and so forth

...

Gigamix is fun, well written and I dig all the redesigns for their fun and creative takes on the characters, but Roll's design is easily my least favorite aspect of this whole thing. She's very genericute looking and doesn't have the cute hair or her cute MM8 outfit.

Alright, I'll only post the games I've completed myself tho.
And don't worry, I have a very normie taste as well.

Fuck, how could I forget. I should've posted that instead.

It's Ariga's style. A more cutesy Roll would be jarring compared to his other character designs.
Also, Ariga's Roll doesn't look very good in her MM8 dress (she wore it at the very end of volume 3) so I think it's fine that she didn't wear it more.

I agree. For some reason, I can't see her a Classic Roll.

...

You missed Falcon

Sure, why not. Might be a bit weird with these

I'd be happier if I had regular ground dashes.

The game really needed dashing. You'd think that even if they weren't gonig to port over Beck's mechanic, they would at least have dashing

I don't understand why they're making BMZ DLC.

That game is not conducive to multiple characters.

no need to proofread, man

same reason runbow decided to have all the characters it did, despite all of them controlling identically:
because it was cool, and because it brought more people in to their own series

Sorry about that. I tend to try fixing these without noticing

I see that Inti/Wayfroward relationship is growing.
How the hell will either of them play, though? Both of them are melee based characters.

from the looks of the trailer shantaes got animal and enemy transformations while shovel knight has his relics

and while im okay with comcept and inti pairing up with other companies im worried that they might actually cut ties with each other because of it

Shovel Knight has relics and stuff, and if anything he can always just throw his shovel
Shantae also has magic, plus her hair's pretty long. and if anything she can always just throw her hair
