/vr/ - Retro Games

>>3217702
Because real the Megaman on SNES is Megaman X.

>>3217712
I like the X series, but i wanted to play someting new out of boredom. But playing this game is like waiting wait your face next to a buffalos ass and recieving a huge load of fecal matter.

Which Mega Man other than Mega Man & Bass is hard?

E Tanks make those games too easy, most of them are perfectly playable without E Tanks, save for a few moments.

>>3217712

But that's also piss easy. All 3 of them. The "real" SNES MM game if you wanna be hardcore is MM&B.

>>3217702

It was developed in a meager 3 months. They didn't have time to experiment with any interesting gameplay concepts so they just cheaply recycled older stage gimmicks and generally played things "safe". I'm in the minority for saying this, but MM8 was a huge breath of fresh air for me despite also being piss easy for how diverse its stage design was.

>>3217730
I hope this much shitty taste isn't contagious.

>>3217734
I like the graphics on rockman & forte, but that game too is very easy.

Megaman 1 - 6, hard as fuck, everything that came after is very easy.

The only hard numbered games are 1 and 9.

>>3217742
>>3217758
>Megaman 1 - 6, hard as fuck
This is a joke, right? Here's a tip, retard. The Yellow Devil uses the same simple pattern every single time. You don't have to abuse a fucking glitch to beat it.

>>3217762

Not that guy but reading comprehension bro. He said 1 and 9, not 1 through 9.

>>3217765
What's your fucking point? The Yellow Devil IS from the first game. Why bother posting if you're just gonna show how much of a retard you are?

>>3217765
Here's a tip. How about you go back to your unskilled minimum-wage labor job and never ever stick your dumb fucking neck into a conversation you know absolutely nothing about again, okay?

When did Megaman threads become so hostile?

Wow stay mad faggot.

>>3217796
wasn't even the first guy you were replying to, was merely a casual observor. nice projection though dumbass.

>>3217702
because all the difficulty in the entire series went to the final boss and nothing else

Why's your mom so piss easy?

Holy shit this thread turned into shit pretty fast. I just wanted to talk about Mega Man.

>>3217762
Er, so? Even after you learn MM1 Yellow Devil, he's still harder than most bosses in the other games. And that's not even bringing up MM's other challenging aspects, like the general glitchiness (getting hit = falling through platforms, knockback into spike pit = instant death), or the boss rush, or Wily. Yeah, you can think MM1 is easy, but it's still less easy than the other entries.

>all these people arguing which game is hard
All of them are piss easy, 2 is the easiest which is why it's the most famous and played in the series. There fantastic games though, not every game needs balls to the walls difficulty.

I just want to use this post to say 4 is the best classic game and no X game is worth playing other then X1, which I admit is really fucking good.

>>3217998
X is shit because you don't start with the dash.

X2 is top tier.

X4 is nice, feels good playing as zero.

>the jump after that with more tires over the pit that makes you go back around to the pit of spikes

Mega Man games are supposed to be easy. The only tough one was MM1 because they had shit programmers.

That being said, 7 was much harder than X1.

>>3218017
on Turbo Man's stage that is.

The wily capsule in 7 is pretty tough honestly but other then that they're easy, including 1.

>>3217805
Fuck that final Wily Boss.

>>3218069

>>3217739

>Mega Man X is easy!!!!

It's funny how the only retards that ever say this never do a straight no heart tank, sub tank, or armor run.

but of course you're going to reply to this post and INSIST that its piss easy even when you dont get upgrades. Liar.

is this the one with the versus mode?

>>3218201
>doom is easy
>lol that's what all faggots say that don't play through the game with just the chainsaw!!!
shut up dickhead. you judge a game by what resources it gives you to complete levels and that's what its difficulty is, not by unnaturally gimping yourself to make it harder

>>3218201
Even then only the last boss is any difficult.

I beat MM7 a couple of days ago and it's still a fucking classic. I didn't have too much trouble with the game except for the last Wily form. I honestly have no idea what they were fucking thinking, but they did it anyway.

Does anyone here enjoy MM8 as much as I do? It's fucking gorgeous as hell with a beautiful soundtrack. Everything else is top tier as well.

>>3218201

You know what, I don't think this post warrants a proper reply. There's just no excusing your crybaby attitude; Denying another person's skill just because your own is lacking is the scrubbiest shit one can do.

>>3218298

>Denying a person's skill just because your own is lacking

Excuse me? I'm saying he probably doesn't play the game without upgrades. How does that mean I suck ass? Fuck off dude.

>>3218223

Sure pal.

>>3218213

>you judge the game based on the resources it gives you not by gimping yourself

Talk to me when you beat it without upgrades and buster only anon. Seriously.

all three of you are giant retards that missed the entire point of my post. Games back then often did not have difficulty settings, so you had to find other ways to challenge yourself.

Great job at making a set of /v/-tier posts. Fucking morons.

>>3217734
Mega Man on gameboy

>>3218253
MM8 was a very pleasant surprise. Love it myself. That animated intro and music is something else..

>>3217702
Because it's a Mega Man game. They aren't really known for their intense difficulty.

>>3218373

>>3218352
games shouldnt offer easier play styles, period. thats a symptom of the modern gaming corruption

>>3218386

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the upgrades in Mega Man X

The problem is when people call the entire game or games like it "piss easy" and think they're hot shit when they don't go the extra mile and challenge themselves.

I see people call Super Metroid "easy" all the time, but none of these people try to complete the game with one Energy Tank. You can play however you want. I am not policing anything of the sort.

I'm just saying that you're a fool if you think you have an accurate assessment of a game's difficulty by only playing it one way.

>>3218386
>thats a symptom of the modern gaming corruption
u wot

Then why do I have games from the 1980s with difficulty levels or other things that make the game easier i.e. stronger and weaker characters?

That's not modern at all.

>>3218403
Literally any game can be made more difficult by placing arbitrary ass restrictions on them.

You seem to take offense to the fact that Mega Man X being called piss easy is some sort of an insult to the game. It's not.

>>3218416
Then whats the point of this thread? To just bitch about how "piss easy" the game is? OP sounds like a baiting bitch

>>3218410
difficulty settings and character types are different from being able to find things that turn the game into a cakewalk

companies figured out they will sell more copies if more people can play through a game without complaints, so games started getting easier and easier over the decades where nowadays games might as well play themselves

>>3218419
I'm not the OP. I'm just pointing out how stupid it is to get pissy about a game being called piss easy unless you put some dumb restrictions on yourself.

>>3218424
>difficulty settings and character types are different from being able to find things that turn the game into a cakewalk

The end result is the same: an easier to beat game.

And I don't know what things you're talking about here, but even games in the 80s had items you could find that made the game way easy. See the spread shot in Contra and Super C.

>>3218416

>arbitrary restrictions
>>3218425


It's hardly arbitrary anon. I don't take offense. To reiterate, I'm just pointing out how ridiculous it is to make an assessment on a game's difficulty by merely playing it one way.

If you're not the type of player to challenge yourself, then you're not really the type of player that should care about if a game is "piss easy" or not and shouldn't be attempting to make the claim in the first place.

>>3218416

>implying Zelda isn't more fun when you skip the heart containers

how do you even enjoy vidya anon

>>3218352
>How does that mean I suck ass?

Well, great job contradicting yourself with that 2nd quote, retard.

>>3218440
No, it's very arbitrary and your post makes no sense because like I said, you can make any game difficult by putting restrictions everywhere.

Why not make Gradius more difficult by skipping powerups? Why not tackle Goldeneye on 00 Agent while using melee attacks through the whole game?

It's dumb and right now you look like someone who's desperately trying to jerk off over his blaster only run of Mega Man whatever (which doesn't make YOU hot shit, as it's something incredibly common)

>>3218463

I didn't contradict myself. Learn how to read, I guess.

>>3218467

>Why not make Gradius more difficult by skipping power ups?

Why not?

>Why not tackle Goldeneye on 00 Agent while using melee attacks only?

Why not?

>It's dumb.

It really isn't. Keep thinking that though.

>>3218461
I didn't imply that anywhere in my post

>>3218475
Okay, you have fun slapping enemies in Goldeneye while enemies ventilate your body with submachine gun fire.

>>3218485

Hey if some goldeneye fan wants to challenge hiimself by doing that, why the fuck not? He found a way to make the game harder.

The design in Mega Man is completely different though. If you're seeking out the upgrades it isn't because LEL ITS IN THE GAME. It's probably because you need them.

>>3218475

Yeah you did you dumb cunt. You denied the other guy's claim that a no powerup run of MMX is easy up till Sigma, thus denying his skills, and being the bitch baby scrub that you are. Learn some self awareness.

>>3218501

That isn't a contradiction, idiot. He's making a blanket claim that the game is piss easy when in reality he's probably just skilled. Most people can't do that. It's a retarded statement when the general consensus is that the game is pretty challenging. Face it, most people suck ass at video games.

I can beat the game in less than 30 minutes, which is just shy of the world record, but of course I'm a bitch baby scrub right?

The only one that needs to learn self-awareness is you.

>>3218501
>>3218487
fuck off samefag

>>3218478
Yeah you are. you're calling using alternate strategies in games "arbitrary restrictions". Do you even know what words mean?

>>3218609

Not samefagging. You guys are really bad at calling out samefags lately.

1) I don't use smug anime reaction images
2) what would the point of samefagging those posts even be?

>>3218613
Sorry meant to quote this:

This is the worst thread I've ever seen on /vr/. You faggots are literally AIDS.

Bumping this glorious gem of a thread for hopefully more neckbeard asshurt.

>>3217702
Because in-game shop.

>>3218201
I owned the game as a kid and I was dissapointed by how easy it was.
Back then I didnt replay games much because I expected that it would take me a long time to beat them, not 2 or 3 days.

>playing Megaman X
Enjoy your babby wallclimbing, bitch nigga.

I'll be playing the far superior Classic Megaman.

>>3220503

>le Mega Man X is bad meme

Shitposting is an art you haven't quite mastered yet there, friend.

What is the easiest ever mega man game? Mega man 2?

>>3221210
Yeah, 2 has to be.

>>3218201
>it's not easy if you play the game in an artificially difficult manner!
no shit?

>>3221210
>>3221220
MM2 is not easy. I bet you faggots can't even buster-only it.

>>3218253
It's awesome, the soundtrack is amazing. I love the Saturn version.

>>3218201
Yeah, Pokemon is also difficult if you only use Ember. What's your point?

>>3221852
Well that's impossible considering the crash bomb room exists and Wily is only vulnerable against Bubble Lead.

Hell, those two bosses alone make MM2 fairly difficult. Yes, the crash bomb room is easy once you know the solution but it's not so trivial to figure it out the first time.

>>3217702
To make the final boss rape even harder.

>>3223946

Bad comparison as they're different genres, but even then it still works.

Pokemon games are piss easy. The new ones are practically for babies when Pokemon was already easy to begin with.

Literally the only way to make them challenging is to use mediocre Pokemon and to use mediocre moves.

If you can't understand the "point" behind making a game more challenging then you're a retard. The fact is, and I know you can't handle this, is that most people find Mega Man pretty difficult. Most people suck. It's easy for you. It's easy for me, but people like us are overwhelmingly in the minority.

An anon in the thread posted an episode of G4's icons where these journalists talk up the reputation Mega Man has. Some even say that they don't like them much because of how hard they are. Full grown men no less.

Basically, just because something comes easy to you or I that does not mean it is universal and you chucklefucks really need to get this shit through your heads.

>>3217702
its shit

>>3225052
its not

>>3224269
>ut people like us are overwhelmingly in the minority.
The only reason anyone's good at any video game is because they have too much free time on their hands. Anybody can beat any NES game given enough time. It's just that most people choose to spend their time doing other things. Or are you going to tell me that you beat the first video game you ever played in one shot and there was no learning curve whatsoever?

>>3224269
>but people like us are overwhelmingly in the minority.
I don't know if the fact that you say this like you're some kind of genius is hilarious or pathetic.

>>3225321
>>3225320

You both miss the point entirely, and project to boot.

I am not saying I am a genius. I am not saying you are a genius. I am not saying that "oh not EVERYONE can do it!!". The fact that that is what you got from my post is absolutely ridiculous and shows you're not willing to discuss my point and just want to shitfling.

Neither of you addressed my point at all.

>>3225728
Actually they both did.

But nice attempt at damage control sperglord.

>>3225728

People will be absolute retards, it's best to just ignore them.

>tfw I beat Ninja Gaiden 2 without using any powerup items

>>3226168
Doesn't count because the air circulating through your NES wasn't at least 22.5% nitrogen.

>>3226163

Actually, they didnt.

>>3217702
