Megaman X7... It broke me
SOOOOO I got the Megaman X Legacy Collection (1 and 2) for Christmas and I was so happy. Megaman X has always been some of the most enjoyable games for me growing up as a kid, as a teenager, and even now as an adult. I loved Megaman X, X2, X3, X4 X5, X6 and even X8. I had never played X7 until Christmas Day.
Holy fucking shit. This game. It broke me. I was a broken man. For those of you who don't know Megaman X it was created by big man Keiji Inafune (the man who brought us EVERY Megaman game to ever exist save for X6-X8 iirc) and it has a simple formula in a side-scrolling action packed game 1. Run 2. Shoot 3. Jump Those are all the "laws" of the game and for OVER 25 YEARS IT HAS WORKED (Megaman X came out in 1993).... Except for ONE game Megaman X7 Dear God... This is possibly the worst game I have EVER played in my life. X is a pussy, Zero is slow and fucking clunky as shit and Axl is center stage and barely performs as a decent character. This is going to be a long read and I'll do a TL;DR version HOWEVER stay with me here folks. The game is called MEGAMAN X7 YES. MEGAMAN X. He should be the main character right? I mean, it's MEGAMAN X WROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG YOU CAN'T PLAY AS X UNLESS YOU DO ONE OF TWO THINGS: 1. Rescue 64 reploids or 2. Defeat all 8 mavericks (Da bad guys) and based on math there are 16 reploids to rescue so in order to play as the MAIN FUCKING CHARACTER (X) You have to beat 4 bosses (which are either hilariously easy or controller snapping hard). WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT To it's credit Megaman X7 introduced the best system ever in the series to its date: The character swap. Low on health? NO PROBLEM! Swap out and the other guy has a nice full bar and is ready to go! This BARELY saves X7 from the cancer that it has. BARELY. When X7 was announced back in 2002 or 2003 it was said that you could experience Megaman X in 3D. WOOHOO. Except not The 3D sections are fucking broken as shit, SOMEHOW you move slower than you do in the 2D sections, and fixing the camera? Oh no problem just move the right sti-HAHAHAHA JK THAT'S FOR WEAPON CHANGING USE THE BUMPER BUTTONS. WHAT?! What fucking sorcery is this? A game with 3D functions and you can't move the camera with the RIGHT STICK!? Bullshit! BULLSHIT! Let's get back to those "laws" I mentioned earlier: Run, shoot, and jump. MEGAMAN X7 THROWS THAT SHIT OUT THE WINDOW AND GIVES YOU AN AUTOMATIC TARGETING SYSTEM This would be good...IF IT WORKED Sadly your brand new fucking system has a smaller attention span than a fucking goldfish when multiple enemies are in sight and swaps constantly so it takes twice as long to kill simple enemies. and the BIGGEST issue: The voice acting. Holy fuck. The game was bad and broke me as a lover of the Megaman X series but HOLY SHIT. X sounds like a pussy-whipped bitch looking for social justice asking to stop the violence (LET'S NOT FORGET HE HAS KILLED THOUSANDS OF REPLOIDS AT THIS POINT. JUST SEE X TO X6 TO SEE HIS TRACK RECORD). Zero sounds gruff but comes off as stale and boring and Axl sounds like a 9 year old boy who just realized he's a robot All in all, if you're an achievement whore looking for those PS4 trophies of gamer points for the XBOX. I feel so sorry for you, really I do... Anyone else: This game will literally break you. I recommend a healthy dosage of alcohol before playing this game because you don't want to remember playing this. TL;DR version: X is a whiny bitch, camera function is fucked, bosses are either way too easy or retardedly hard, and you should be drunk when playing this game |

Re: Megaman X7... It broke me
i got megaman 11 recently and was kind of disappointed but then I thought eh what do I really expect from a modern megaman game at this point... so it was actually not that bad.

Re: Megaman X7... It broke me
The name of the game not being playable (if at all) reminds me of another series...

Re: Megaman X7... It broke me
both X6 and X7 would be better served by not existing. both were made just to capitalize on the success of the prior games, basically, and they're just vastly worse than those, and rushed out the door
this game was supposedly made by like a team of 30 people, and it really shows. even the levels where you get to do something moderately interesting sounding, like drive a rocket car, are horrible and hate you for wanting to enjoy them both X6's nightmare effects and Axl's abilities were done better in zero 4 could be worse though. it could be mn9 what i've seen of mm11 seems nice though. but i can't run it |

Re: Megaman X7... It broke me
I enjoyed the throw together of X6. The story is more about Alia than anyone else which I personally thought was needed because we were kinda just... given her.
It makes me feel better that without X6 or X7 I wouldn't have been able to play X8 which EVERYTHING got better. X8 is an example of going with the original formula that has given success for over 20 years |

Re: Megaman X7... It broke me
This. I forgot about this. Probably on purpose.
BURN TO THE BURN TO GROUND BURN TO THE GROUND X CAN YOU HE- BURN BURN TOTHEBURN BURN TO THE GROUND Described above is basically what the audio is when fighting Flame Hyenard. You will wish you could burn to the ground after dealing with him. BUT HEY! REMEMBER THAT YOU HAVE TO FIGHT ALL 8 BOSSES A SECOND TIME |

Re: Megaman X7... It broke me
It's pretty sad that x8 was overshadowed by how had x7 was. X8 was better than x4-6 in my opinion but no one gave it a chance.

THAT is how Megaman X was designed. You get an advantage if you have the boss' weakness but it's still not easy to get the win. Lumine is the exception with her "Paradise Lost" technique. If you panic during that you're fuckin' toast |

First, off the only reason, I didn't smash the game into two pieces is because it was my friend's game disk. Anyways I asked for this. I played it on both difficulties on stream which enhanced the suffering. Zero in x7 is the only character I bother playing is he's at least semi-competent. On my normal mode run, I didn't get any reploids on Stonekong or Hyenards stages. I didn't give enough fucks to get them tbh. I had several issues with bugs throughout the game that pissed me off I actually broke my controller from throwing it at the wall. (rip controller you were an unneeded casualty in this conflict.) These bugs so happen to include the following.
We haven't even gotten to the stages or bosses yet oh hell no. Over half the list of mavericks are so unmemorable that I forgot their names but that's ok because their stages were absolute dogshit. Vanishing gungaroons stage is tolerable. Same with splash warfly. Tornado tunion. As once quoted by one of my favorite YouTubers the quarter guy "He's just an onion he's just an onion he's just an onion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Flame hyenard is easily the worst stage in hard mode because of the enemies added. (more on that later) Soldier stonekong is unfair and bullshit in hard mode in 3 separate sections. ride boreski has a tedious stage just as the boss is. Every other stage before red was mediocre in normal and pretty shit in hard mode. Reds stage is the part of the game where I needed the most support to keep going on both difficulties because of bad it is. I won't go into further detail on that because I fall through the floor over 60% of the time (yes I added the statistics up). The fights to me are as follows. Vanishing gungaroon is the only fight I died too in the whole game and I did so as a joke for my stream. Flame hyenard "flamer busfuck" quarter guy reference again Tornado tunion the second-fastest boss kill I've gotten in a Megaman x game (yeah I'm talking about the hard mode version but the normal mode version is the exact same) Ride boreski is the fastest kill I've gotten in a Megaman x game Stonekong should take his ass back to donkey kong country and get the fuck out of my Megaman. Splash warfly and red are the only 2 bosses I actually found any enjoyment in. The soundtrack of this game is very mediocre at best I'm gonna leave it at that. Axl's copy ability is the setup to a glitch that can skip to the end credits if done correctly. I will say that the hard modes of flame hyenards stage (the 3d bit) has the worst enemy placement in this game. Also, lock-on in the 2d sections how the fuck did you fuck that up capcom? The voice acting is getting sued for noise pollution by the quarter guy. X being a pussy is honestly a good thing so I don't blame him for wanting to avoid this shitty conflict The only game in the series that comes anything close to this is Megaman and bass (but that game is bad due to shitty enemy placement and just absolute bad game design and insane difficulty, something this game doesn't have) I feel like Price at the end of modern warfare 3 after playing this game. Except the game is Makarov and the cigarette is replaced with a middle finger raised in the game's direction. Its thanksgiving in a few days and one thing I sure as hell am thankful for is that I don't have to play this piece of robotic subhuman antimatter radiating shit of a game ever again. OP you asked for this you got it. I rest my case Last edited by katanaeyegaming; 11-25-2019 at 09:58 AM.. |
