Replaying this game right now. Comfy times are to be had.

Post some Legends.

Japanese Rockman 64 had the best cover-art.

Aw, you have no idea how much I adore that art. It evokes such a feeling of fun and adventure inside me... And the game lives up to those feelings too!

Great game, I played it for the first time only two years ago and loved it. I see it seems to get more criticism recently but I felt it was a great transition and kept the spirit of mega man. Probably the worst thing is finding about Tiesel's actor after he became my favorite character, broke my heart.

Anyone here have experience on running legends 2 on psp? I tried running it but found out there is a part where the game glitches and resets the console. I tried messing with different popsloader firmwares but nothing seemed to help. Any help is appreciated.

Damn, I was planning to post that pic, love it. Legends doesn't seem to have s much fanart compared to the others, sad since the cast is so fun.

I love the series, have replayed them a few times. There is something magical about what the team did with the graphic limitations of the time. They took advantage of an amazing style to compliment the look they could achieve (the only thing looking bad were refractor crystals flickering like hell).

The methodical structure of how areas are laid out and arranged and how you unlocking shortcuts and links makes sense for the most part. The platforming was rather basic but the engine allowed you to jump on practically anything to just have fun and get around. And made better even when you unlock the skates.

I consider it a trilogy with Misadventures included. MML1 is technically "meh" with a great setting and story. MM2 is more refined technically but the setting is worse with just a different style of story, more grand. Misadventures is the definition of a Gaiden game. A totally different, typically short and streamlined concept, but amazing while you're playing it. I liked that it had no real impact except to play as a fan favorite character. It was fan service done well.

I'm playing Brave Fencer Musashi for PS1 right now and getting a very similar vibe. Any other games in this structure and feel for the PS1 or PS2?

Don't have much in the way of MML...shame.

I actually rather enjoyed MML2, and had no real complaints about it. I think I got so caught up in the story and the characters that the flaws just disappeared from memory.

The Bonnes are my absolute favorite 'villains'/antagonists...they got such a relevancy(prominence?) upgrade in the sequel. Tiesel's comment about the toilet paper had me in stitches as a teen...

I preferred 1 to 2, Kattelox's unified structure and mystery was so much fun to unravel. 2's a ton of fun and wonderful in its own right, gameplay is more refined than the first and is overall more technically impressive but I had trouble following the story in the second half, and had to read up a synopsis afterwards to really understand what happened, notwithstanding certain things the game intentionally keeps vague, like the nature of Carbons or Reaverbots.

Misadventures was alright. The wonderful aesthetic and writing is there, like every Legends fan should play it, but it was clearly made on a budget compared to the other two. The puzzle game aspects were charming, but the RPG/adventure sections were what I really wanted, and I don't feel like I got enough. And some of those dock levels could take a normal person hours to figure out.

Real talk, the Apple Market theme triggers some hecka nostalgia for me. Clear memories of going home, watching some Toonami, and then playing some Mega Man.

Legends >>>> TLOZ OoT
IMO
Legends was a really well put game, especially for its time, a perfect package combining new setting and play mechanics while keeping the basics of the MM series, the best way to keep a franchise fresh.
Ocarina meanwhile was in development for so long and had so many changes made, in the end it really felt cobbled together and unfinished. I can't remember any fun moments from the game but the frustrating parts sure were memorable.

Real shame Legends didn't really take off with people like OoT did, despite coming out before in Japan and doing many things better

[Anonymous No.3932217]

I think I agree with you. I played Ocarina of time, finished it, and didn't really feel a true sense of satisfaction or anything like that. It was a game I played, I enjoyed the challenge and free-roaming but that's it.

Meanwhile with Legends I came out of that with a deep sense of satisfaction. I loved so many things about it. Certainly it didn't FEEL as good to walk around in but I felt much more attached to the world and it's characters than I ever could to Zelda's.

That's not to say I don't appreciate a lot of what Ocarina did, but in the end Legends left a larger impression. Mind you, I played Ocarina of time BEFORE Legends, and this was only three years ago.

As an Ocarinafag, it's difference in tone and preferences. Ocarina is darkier and spoopier, Legends is bright and comfy.

I like dungeons and bosses in Ocarina more (MML suffers greatly from "just strafe around bosses lmao" syndrome), but Legends' aesthetic and characters blow OOT out of water.

Tron best girl, Roll and Sera can't even compare.

[Anonymous No.3932272]

>>3932262
y'know I think it's just the tone I like more too. I wonder how they would be able to combat that strafing problem in MML3.

[Anonymous No.3932274]

>>3932272
>MML3
It's called Red Ash now :^)

Strafing problem could easily be solved by bosses not having huge slow telegraphed attacks and by actually leading the target with shots.

Man, that shit's not even gonna be a thing probably. Shit's gonna end with a "so whatever happened to that thing anyway" sort of deal.

You're pretty smart anon, they should hire you.

It's Inafundme. I don't expect anything good but still hope to be pleasantly surprised. it hurts.

Call's design is 10/10 at least.

[Looks like someone's making a game trilogy with only two games.]

Hmmm... Something's missing... What do you think I should add?

I wouldn't want to play Legends 2 on PSP anyway. Its lacking the second analogue stick isn't it? Which means you can't use it to aim.

It's 4C so at least it'll look good. I have much bigger doubts about the game - as recent wave of nostalgia kickstarters have shown, just nostalgia isn't enough. Shovel Knight was great, but the rest were aggressively mediocre.

Mystical Ninja starring Goemon, Mega Man Legends and Ocarina of Time are the holy trinity of 3D adventure 5th gen games.

IN A WORLD COVERED BY ENDLESS WATER

[Anonymous No.3932584]

The Legends world is so good I would be happy with a game that takes place in its world even if Volnutt and the crew were back seat characters.

Imagine starting on a simple island with a town and a dungeon system like Cattlelox, delving into the ruins. You could just stay on your little island town and farm or run a shop or fish or something. Make it be Rune Factory if people only wanted to delve that deep. But you can also start buying yourself a suit like Clyde or Teisel, get yourself a Skyfish and a crew and go out exploring other islands. Become your own Digger. Let the character run into the Volnutt crew or the Bonnes or even the Clydes. Maybe join up with them, but only do tertiary stuff.

Essentially mix Legends and Misadventures, expand the world and make the player character not essential to the overall story or very minor. Maybe make the end of the first act is your character does something that is key to returning MM to Earth, but the player character doesn't know.

I want to explore the world more than play as Megaman again.

I really like her charcoal skin tone she's rocking there. It's pretty erotic. Such a shame 4c's going for a vanilla flavor.

I have yet to play that. Guess that's next.

just jumped into this thread but wanted to mention the n64 goemon games are fucking amazing. it gives you that same pissed off feeling later after enjoying them realizing they're a very niche taste, just like mm legends, but if you enjoy it you fucking love it.

a shame normies ruin everything that has actual life
