kek

If you want to complain go play X6 or Megaman & Bass instead. MM8 is a solid game and the slider sections are shorter than you think.

>>6353325
Looking for an excuse to post your epic wojak edit? Going as far as to defend bad game design?

>>6353450
Good game design defined as anything that doesn't pose any sort of challenge to anybody is not "game" design at all

>>6353390
This, or I was with you until you brought up MM&B. The SNES original is a completely fair game and still fun. Love X6, too, but it obviously has extreme bullshit from it actually not being finished.

>>6353450
IIRC doesn't it actually have flashing signs that tell you exactly what to do before it happens? I never had any problem with these sections because the signs made the difficulty trivial. If it tells you to jump then just fucking jump, what is the problem here exactly?

>>6353450

>>6353325
well yeah the game has hella input lag on the ps3 version making this section damn near impossible

>>6353489
Heh well don't you think you're so smart. The reason they do that is because they know it's cheap and they had to think "well...let's try to help rather than abandon this shitty mechanic or make it fun"

It does indeed tell you to "jump jump" or "slide slide" but it is not that simple, as each jump and slide requires a different momentum and timing, so it's really just an annoying high speed memorization sequence that is not fun at all.

>as each jump and slide requires a different momentum and timing
So you're mad the game doesn't hold your hand and do all that for you then?

>>6353686
Personally I hate that shit in any game. If I wanted to play a racing game or skateboard simulator or whatever the fuck I'd choose those games. Games that are not vehicular games forcing those sections in half assedly always sucks.

>>6353602
>it is not that simple, as each jump and slide requires a different momentum and timing
Wow it's as if it was a game

>>6353179
>plays on anniversary collection or emulator like a fucking retard

JUMP JUMP JUMP

>NOOOOO you can only play Mega Man 8 on a heckin' genuine PS Onearino!!
Is there even a Playstation emulation in existence that can't handle Mega Man 8?

>>6353179
This was worse and they did it for an entire level

People are defending this shit but I agree with you OP.

Difficulty should be in the core gameplay, if the toughest parts are brief minigames unlike the rest of the game then that’s just annoying.

>defending
Mocking somebody childish enough to get triggered by mildly challenging game sections doesn't necessarily mean they were good decisions

All of a sudden people like Mega Man 8 and are depending this section? I'll never understand this board.

>>6353471
Well, MM&B is a great game but it can have its unfair moments too, like a boss with destroyable moving platforms over a pitfall, a boss that regenerates, Bass main weapon against bosses...
What I'm saying is that it has more causes for complain, but not that it's a bad game

>>6353179
>>6354203
Are you people just bad at games or something?

>>6353450
git gud

The only thing I don't like about the jet-board segments is some of the enemies that you pretty much can't kill, at least not buster only, not when they spawn 3 of those big green bombers in a row.

I know you're supposed to dodge them but I just don't like it. They should have offered the possibility to kill them ALL buster only with great tight timing.

Otherwise it's not bad, but I understand if some players get frustrated by it.

Less difficult than Battletoads Turbo Tunnel. Both are beatable with a little tenacity.

Is it just me or does Megaman not jump if you're at the very edge of the platform?

>>6357092
yeah, pretty sure that's correct. I've felt the same way several times.

>>6353179
It's only bad on the Anniversary collection.

>>6354468
I enjoyed Mega Man 8 aside from these shitty snowboard parts

>>6362128
Same.

I actually disliked the shmup part worse; it's slow as hell
