Got back from our road trip to Boston on Tuesday. On Wednesday, I wrote about it here but forgot to post it. So, the Berklee commencement was 1 week ago today.
In other words, I got my music diploma :8bitwariodance:
I finished Mega Man X1 like 2 days ago:

Mega Man X (USA) (Rev 1)-250514-180723.png


I like it but I don't love it (Edit: I replayed it and I do love it actually). It's a pretty good game and I like the upgrade mechanic but they kinda make the game unbalanced I think. Once you know, where the upgrades are what are the boss weaknesses, the Maverick stages become ridiculously easy. At least with the classic Mega Man games the platforming was still there to make you struggle even if you had all the weapons but here it's just not the case. I also don't really like the Sigma Fortress stages. That being said, the controls of this game are pretty fun and the visuals and music are really good. My favorite track is Sting Chameleon's stage. The level design for the Maverick stages are also very fun, regardless of if you got the upgrades or not. I'll definitely play it again.



I also tried out MMX2 and I gotta say I don't like it as much as X1 for now. I beat like 3 Mavericks in it and it feels too much like X1 to me. Even the pause menu and title screen look almost identical to X1. I still like it but it feels like more of a DLC and less of another game for now. The stage locales do look even better though, I'll give it that. Then again, I haven't beaten the game so maybe it gets a lot better afterwards, I don't know.

This is minor but does it bother anyone else how from Gold onwards (well Get It Together! is kinda different) the character's voice reactions depending on if you win or lose a microgame play afterwards and not right after you win/lose? I just think it is so funny to hear Wario's voice say something funny right when you lose and Idk, it is not nearly as funny in Gold and Move It! because you do not hear the reaction until after, not as satisfying... also, it's the only way to know if you actually won or lost.

I kinda see what you mean and I did notice. And yeah, I prefer it like it used to be. It's especially satisfying to hear in the original WarioWare with the GBA audio compression.
So I've been playing a lot of Mega Man recently. I got the Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 and 2 since they were bundled for €10 on Steam. I've played through Mega Man2, 3 and I am now currently going through 4 and I gotta say I am enjoying the series a lot for now. I also played a bit of Mega Man X1 and 1 though I haven't finished. X1 I just stopped playing to play something but for 1 I am stuck on Ice Man's stage, this stage is genuinely awful. My favorite for now is probably Mega Man 3 but 4 may top it once I finish it, although I am not sure for now (especially since I haven't beat any stages in it for now).

I have always wanted to play those games! Mega Man seems cool to me for some reason...

No problem. I'll be glad to give my thoughts about MM6 when I get to it.

@GreenToxic If you wanna get into the classic Mega Man games, I recommend you start with MM2 like I did. It's definitely one of the easier games in the series (especially if played on Normal on a US copy) plus I'm pretty sure it's consider to be "defacto" Mega Man game.
