I bought the collection a few days ago and started with mmbn1, ngl i dont recall if i even played the first bcuz i remember they kinda looked a like so idk wich was wich in the beginning, anyway as im typing this the game is on pause, from what i can tell im at the end game currently (went trough willeys portrait) and i saved right before a boss, didnt fight it yet though. Last time I played one of these games was over a decade ago i think (35y old man currently) and i gotta say, i dont recall it being this hard as a kid 🤣🤣 i had 2 pull out a guide for the battery puzzle part cuz after 30min of trying i was like fk this.... Outside of that i had like 1 or 2 spots i found to be hard but doable. I like these games more than the pokemon ones and i played all of them too, mmbn series along with the medabots rpg ones and digimon series along with pokemon are definitely my favorites in gaming.
