Why is this game so underrated?
It's even more baffling that the general zoomer consensus is that 7 is one of the best and 8 is one of the worst.

Playstation or Saturn?

Why does everyone hate this game exactly? I just played it and aside from Wily Stage 1, I thought it was perfectly fine. There's a lot of things I like about it. The art style is nice and the levels are all visually appealing (except maybe Clown Man's stage). I like how certain levels have you use weapons to progress or find secrets. The way you could use the mega ball to jump multiple times in mid-air was really cool, I wish the other games had something similar. The level design certainly wasn't the best in the series, but it was good enough for the most part, barring a couple annoying gimmick stages. The robot masters are noticeably easier than in previous games, but that's not necessarily a bad thing imo. It's definitely not my favorite, but I just don't understand the hate this game gets.

It's fucking great. Fun weapons, fun vibes, upgrades that make Mega Man OP as all fuck. The best parts of MM and X games combined. Once I got gud at jumpan slidan this shit was a breeze.
