Mighty No. 9

[Phi]

I'll just leave this here.

[spoiler][/spoiler]

A little too fitting.

Beat my first boss, Mighty Number 8

My god the level leading to him was AWFUL, went on waaaay to long and was just a short loop. 

That being said Mighty Number 8 was fun to fight, boss room took advantage of his sniper powers while not being to annoying for the player. Maybe my opinion will turn around after all. 

[Sakura Leic]

Yeah from what I've seen while I think the level is interesting I think having no check point due to that loop and instant kill wire trap lazers so you have to start the entire thing over again can be a bit cruel.

Less cruel and more tedious, honestly I feel that applys nearly every level so far-they kinda go on and on and extra lives are rare.

Honestly I think I know what my biggest issue with MN9 is gameplay wise, the lack of a wall jump-it feels wrong to be able to dash/air dash without some form of maneuverability on walls, seriously lose the grapple and give me a wall dash plz.

Sure Infafune will only need another million to implement that right? j/k

[Sakura Leic]

Yeah Beck really needs a Wall Jump I agree.

[Blue Valkyrie]

Also I think the game might have been listening because after my last game over now it's showering me with lives. 

Highway stage is fun if not a little long, did anyone else spot the game grumps poster on a billboard in area 1? 

[Sakura Leic]

Yeah I did, it's kind of charming in a way.

Apparently, the more you die, the better the items "Eddie" gives you.

[Sakura Leic]

Yeah he does, it goes from extended buffs, to "E-Tanks", to even giving lives.

[Blue Valkyrie]

By more you mean max out my lives by area 3 of the Highway stage? 

Yeah he does, it goes from extended buffs, to "E-Tanks", to even giving lives.

Ah okay-I figured thats why I was getting random stuff at check points.

[Dr. Wily II]

Anyways, has there been any word for a 3DS release, besides a general in 2016? I know I'll definitely get that. AS A PHYSICAL COPY

By more you mean max out my lives by area 3 of the Highway stage? 

He's "Eddie", be thankful it's not more big Weapon Capsules.

[Sakura Leic]

Still no word unfortunately.

[Blue Valkyrie]

Just beat Brand

Okay now THAT was a megaman feeling level.

Stage was challenging but fair, and while it did drag a little bit I really enjoyed it, the boss was ALOT of fun.

MN9 is starting to grow on me.

I will confess, I did watch a livestream from Andrew Dickman when he tried to play Mighty No. 9 (not he entire game obviously), and someone in the stream chat mentioned Egoraptor donated $3K for the Game Grumps poster in the highway level.

[Blue Valkyrie]

Backer perk I imagine?

[Sakura Leic]

Maybe, probably similar to the one in Shovel Knight since they're also there along with Vixy herself.

[Dr. Wily II]

Did anyone get the perk of dining with Inafking?

[Sakura Leic]

I think there was at least 1 person who paid that.

[Protoman Blues]

Alright, so I've played through and beaten this game. My thoughts:

I. [tornado fang]ing. Love It.

I had a blast playing this game the first time through. The level design is fun & challenging (although the sniper one is a bit tedious, yeah. Lol) and I love the personalities of the Mighty Numbers. Anyone who tells you that Avi is not the best Mighty Number is a liar!  Cryo is up there because I'm a sucker for puns, but Avi steals the show. While like one or two of the weapons are meh/useless (like most MM games), the majority of them are great. Cryo,  Dyna, and Brand's definitely stand out, but Batt & Avi's weapons are great and Pyro's is useful at certain times. The story is basic, which is fine. The voice acting could use some work in some areas, but it's definitely not a huge negative. If I had one complaint, it'd be that the stage background music isn't all that loud and it should be louder cause the soundtrack is pretty good!

Yeah, seeing the Game Grumps & The Protomen billboards in the back of the Highway stage was awesome.

Overall, this is probably the closest I've felt to playing a Mega Man game in a long time and I loved it. I would happily back a Mighty No 9 sequel.

Protoman Blues is pleased!

With PB's seal of approval, your arguments are invalid.

[Cherrykorock]

Okay so 9 bosses down (mighty 1-8 plus the dlc Raychel).

I can safely say there is a definitive weakness  chain ala Megaman and I wont spoil it but the game DOES tell you which weapon to use if you pay attention in the stages after you've beaten a boss or two. Even better there are also weapons that do more damage/more useful than the Beck Buster even if it isn't AS good as the proper weakness.

Imho the best level is Slash Beast I mean Mighty No 7 with the worst probably being Mighty No 4.

Btw after turning down the SFX to like 1/4 of the volume and the voices to about 1/3 I can clearly hear the music and it's rally good even if they aren't too catchy (sans the fight theme and Zer- mighty no 7)

The sniper rifle form is my go to form and the rest are kinda fun but not anywhere as usual barring maybe the sword and grenade forms.

Btw I don't know if this happens to anyone else but for some reason when I use the Helicopter form the blade like to fly into the foreground more often than not, a glitch?

[Sakura Leic]

I wish I was good at platformers.
