VictorSempra Posted May 26, 2013 Report Share Posted May 26, 2013 Another game that has me feeling quite nostalgic. It was the first Megaman game I actually played (and first Gamecube game). It is an RPG, that stars X, Zero, and Axl as the main three, doing what they do best: Hunting Mavericks. So, the good: Variation in equipment with both pros and cons to them/ equipment actually changes how your weapon looks Good choice of party members each with unique skillsets Lots of gameplay to keep you entertained Hyper Mode The bad: Limited healing capability due to the Tank system Optional bosses are RETARDEDLY hard Game practically hands you boss wins via items Bosses don't have health gauges Interesting factoid: All female Reploids, as far as I can see, are named after spices.

Expelsword Posted May 26, 2013 Report Share Posted May 26, 2013 Um, X, Zero, Axl was the best party, and the only other member that was useful was Marino for steal. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SxyBVS5hXc is my text message tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never said the others were GOOD, just unique :P I remember the first time I played it, I used X, Axl, and Marino. I thought everyone else's Hyper Mode was lame.

VictorSempra Posted May 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2013 D: I always used Cinnamon because healing and kitty paws. The heals are nice, but how often is it really needed, until the last couple bosses? I never really found the game horribly challenging to the point I needed a dedicated healer.

LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 I loved this game. I owned it for a long time before playing it, and it was great. I think that the game was easy enough to take on with a lot of different teams though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 And, I didn't mind it's casualness, it was just a simple, fun game that I got really into. (It's one of the few that I played after beating it.) I've noticed that for me, a lot of games try too hard to be difficult. Which sometimes just makes it tedious.

Totally agree, such as...let's pick on my favorite target, FFx-2. I got about halfway through the game before I realized I MISSED two of the FInal Spheres, which pretty much made the rest of the game EXTREMELY impossible. Not to mention, the game required a certain degree of grinding to beat bosses as say, Shiva at the beginning of part 5. When a game FORCES you to grind, I lose interest. SOmetimes I just wanna casually coast through a story. That's why I liked Legend Of Legaia and Legend Of Dragoon so much, the way their EXP system worked grinding was surprisingly hard to accomplish, and it kept the game mellow and story-driven.
