It doesn't really do anything intelligent. I know about the memes of how it teaches you to climb walls, I don't think there's much value in this when pacing is the sacrifice.

If you think X and X2 level design isn't smart, then why do you even like X4's?

>> No.6544859

>>6544857
How are either of them smart while X4 is not? Cohesion and brisk pacing benefit a game a lot more than dropping you in a hole (with copious slow down) just to make sure you know you can climb out of it.

>> No.6544867

Nevermind, you're the guy who brings up slowdowns and prefers X4. I've discussed with you before.
Complaining about the intro level? Really? I'm talking about the actual stages.

>> No.6544871

>>6544867
How isn't the intro stage not a stage? Really?
If you don't like the points presented and can't argue against them (you failed to) present a counter-point. X1/2 got a little too high on the negative space in some of their levels, large rooms with little in them didn't really leave much room for the game play to shine, just a lot of falling and frankly tedious vertical exploration for so-so yields.

X3 has Zero and the soulfulness of being on the SNES.
The PS1 may have been a better console overall, but the 2D games were less soulful than SNES games.

Design wise I didn't find SNES games a massive leap over what was being done on the NES. I like the games but I think the Genesis pushed 2D to the next level.

I don't think this discussion is relevant however.

>How isn't the intro stage not a stage? Really?
I mean stages with actual bosses, levels you can replay.
>If you don't like the points presented
You didn't really present any point, just complaining that X1 and 2 are "too platform-y" or whatever, which is precisely what I think X4 lacks and why I don't like it as much. Let's just agree to disagree. X4 isn't objectively better than X, not even close, and Zero is not an objective reason, I play Mega Man X for X, not for Zero.

To clarify, yeah. I don't think Zero Project puts X3 on top of X1 and X2, those two games are as perfect as they can be, and it's not a matter of adding extra features. In fact X1's simplicity is part of what I like about it.

As for X6 Tweaks/X5 Improvement, I do think they put those two games on top of X4. They make very oddball and challenging games more straight forward and easier to enjoy. X4 on the other hand is a big fat ""ok"" game for my taste. I liked it a lot the first time I played it, but for the straight line stage design and low difficulty, I rarely feel like replaying it.

That's not any objective measure anon, you just saying "more fun" doesn't mean it's objectively true.
It has Zero, but that doesn't excuse the less than stellar level design, which is the usual complaint fans have for X4. Also, "AMVs" isn't a positive, imo, but I guess that's subjective. I used to love FMVs back in the day due to the novelty of digital video, but now I vastly prefer games without them interrupting the pacing of the games.
