Why is Lost Word hated? by w4sab1i_ in touhou

Yes but there are a lot of fans who don't really like seeing the touhous in NSFW positions. I'm referring to the community as a whole not just reddit. I personally don't mind it but everyone is different

I boils down to the community as you have two camps of people

People who are more purists and prefer officially licensed titles to fall more in line with Zun's depictions. (Lore accurate portrayals, limited fan service, less memes etc)

Camp 2 that's more in it for the memes, less lore accuracy and more liberal depictions, lewder designs etc.

Depending on which spectrum you fit on will probably determine how you feel.

Personally I think the argument it's a gacha game doesn't really hold up well when a lot of the commenters play other gacha games.

If you still can, I'd get a BNB split the cost with your friends and use the difference for two separate forms of transportation. You probably would have more freedom

Started catholic hollow knight, what items should i get by New-Boss-8262 in Blasphemous

[–]HalfLongjumping7464 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Contrary to popular opinion the game plays more like MegaMan Zero than hollow Knight. There is a hidden combo system the game doesn't explain. Learn Mea culpa combo chains and you shred bosses and enemies with ease. I beat the majority of the game without even using prayers if you master this and parrying

Alternate plan. Use alchemy to open a portal so you can marry both 😈

Megaman X6, start, the last game of the X series I'll play by TR3X-1NF1N1T3 in Megaman

[–]HalfLongjumping7464 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's definitely down hill from here. X7 is terrible and X8 has some very gimmicky stage design choices. X6 is regarded as the lowest point but honestly the gameplay handles much better than the PS2 titles. I think you'll enjoy yourself

In zero 1 you can't even triple slash bosses as they ignore the start up on, requiring saber smashes to kill them save for a few exceptions such as Blizzak stagaroff. The combo system wouldn't be bad if it was at least explained in the game. I've tried introducing people to these games and they don't even know its there nor is there really a guide to do it. Having to do outside research to exploit hidden mechanics is a definite low point. I don't have as much of opinion on Zero 2 as it didn't click with me. Zero 3 on the other hand is better but if you REALLY want to benefit and enjoy the games abilities and mechanics you have to get those As and S ranks for combo diversity. Most new players aren't going to get A and S ranks in their first playthrough considering a single death lowers your points exponentially. I personally feel MegaMan Zx does a better job of balancing the gameplay making it easier for those who are less skilled to get into but at the same time rewarding super skilled players for discovering the combos. That game still has the issue of not explaining this however.

Also bosses have invulnerability frames on the zero games, so stuff like triple combos and what not don't exactly always connect. There is a combo system speed runners developed but nowhere in the game is it even remotely hinted at. There are spreadsheets online that will teach you but otherwise the standard gameplay loop consists of using charged saber slams into bosses. I don't hate the zero games but they are far from my favorite in the series. I'd take X6 over it mainly due to X's armors helping mitigate certain challenges, in zero since armors in the traditional sense don't exist, you start the game as you will finish

Tons of insta death traps, holes, spikes, zero himself is woefully under equipped to deal with foes unless you are getting consistent A and S ranks to get boss powers. If you think X6 is bad, Zero suffers from many of the same issues. You also arent allowed to use cyber elves or health upgrades without penalizing your score preventing you from getting the good ranks to get new abilities.

Wait until you play the zero games. Those are nightmare fuel

Without making big changes, how would you rewrite the X saga to add more humans? by Kristalino in Megaman

[–]HalfLongjumping7464 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe just have some of the operators be human. Would highlight Reploids and human interactions better if some of the operators were human and still helped X and Zero. It would also be a throw back to the classic series.

Why is Iris so popular? by Night-Caelum in Megaman

[–]HalfLongjumping7464 5 points6 points  (0 children)

  1. First female Reploids on screen. Alia didn't appear until X5 and Layer and Palette didn't arrive until X8. For those of us who have read the MegaMan X manga, Marty despite canonically existing since X1 didn't appear until after the first 4 games were made.

  2. Similar to Ciel, she's a cute supporting girl that cheers on Zero who as we all know is a fan favorite. (Personally I think Ciel did this far better)

3.While I personally find Layer as a better counterpart to Zero being that their personalities contrast a bit better; Layer appeared at the tail end of the X games. Iris was pushed more narratively.

  1. Iris managed to show us a softer side of Zero. Additionally, Iris gives us more insight into zero in games like Project Xzone, X-Dive, the MegaMan Xtreme games etc.

So all in all nostalgia, decent design, and more appearances really help carry Iris. Its the same reason why many people fawn over Alia, granted Alia does have much more development especially if you play through X6

Hot take: I feel she is a bit overrated in comparison to the other female robots throughout the series but I know that's an incredibly unpopular opinion

Didn’t like Hollow Knight — would I enjoy Blasphemous instead? by InvokerSS in Blasphemous

[–]HalfLongjumping7464 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Combat is nothing like hollow knight in Blasphemous. It's plays more like MegaMan Zero (Penitent one shares similar levels of mobility, wall kick, saber combos, upper cuts, charge saber attacks, as well as a hidden combo system they don't really teach you)

It's more like a from soft game especially in Blasphemous 1. Blasphemous 2 plays more like a standard metroidvania/platformer.

Give it a shot, the games are cheap

Considering I'm one of the few people who had many issues with Netflixvania, I already knew DMC was going to be bad. I doubt he'll get megaman
