Uhh, I know that music can drive you crazy but MagnetMan was quite tolerable. FreezeMan is THAT part of BN2, DrillMan from BN3 was on the same level.
As for 6, AquaMan's scenario was pretty tame, I'd say THAT PART was either CircusMan or Colonel's scenario. Fuck the soul weapons.

>>339890357
>>339890515
>>339886803
I don't remember Elecman being too hard. It was having to fight Protoman afterward that was the real pain. But even then Protoman isn't nearly as hard as in the later games (aside from 5 where he's the first boss fight and is insanely gimped)

>>339890990
The PET broke earlier in the story from Flash Man's Shining Browser Crasher attack.
>>339891257
Ah, the Style System, where if you made any kind of movement at all your sprite would flash to a colored version of the normal sprite before dropping back into your style when idle. Capcom sure was lazy.
>>339886803

Wow, I never saw that Wood Bug style. Gotta say, I think I prefer that darker color to the lighter greens. Bug colors look pretty neat in general I think. Also, normal type looks kind of bizarre with styles.

>>339891945
And they fully work, too.
Just a side effect of how the style system was programmed, I guess. There's no Hub Shadow, Hub Ground, or Hub Bug because Hub Style didn't exist in BN3. (Was replaced with Hubbatch NaviCust Program)
>>339892141
Technically you can in Battle Chip Challenge..
>mfw playing as Bass in 4.5
Doesn't even make any sense, why would Bass willingly let himself be controlled by a human? I hear he constantly insults the player, though.

When you play 4.5, do the Navis act like you are their operator, or are you playing as like Lan and Mayl operating their normal Navis?
>>339893330
You are their operator. You put in your name, age, gender, occupation, and the date at the start of the game.
And occasionally your Navi will ask you other stuff like "What's your favorite TV show?" or "What's the name of your crush?."I don't think any of it affects anything, though.

Wait, did it get increasingly insane with each game?
>>339894708
The lack of interest is probably because to fully enjoy the game you needed to have the Battle Chip Gate peripheral and physical chips to go with it.
It's fully playable without it, though. And someone's made a hack to turn the battle system back into the traditional one from the other games.
>>339895008
Yes. Yes it did.
>>339895025
Both patches are also compatible.

It's only not noticeable if you're using Custom style, since there's barely a change.

>>339906437
>while also not wasting space on reflect
You're thinking of BN2's ShieldStyle, which had Shield by default.
BN3's ShieldStyle has First Barrier by default, and generated Guard, Shield, and Reflect programs as it leveled up, which you had to install to get benefits from.
>>339906761

>>339909976
>>339910410
>>339910625
Colonel appears in both versions of 5. Colonel being canon doesn't even make sense when you consider it was released several weeks after Protoman in Japan.
I always loved how BN incorporated/referenced real world elements in the games. Like the undernet being basically the "deepnet" and the message boards were anonymous. Darkchips are essentially drugs to navis.The way you obtain some of them is just great.
>>339911343
Protoman/Colonel as well as Baryl only appear at the very end of the opposing version, and even then very briefly.
In BN6 Lan acts as if they've known eachother for a while.
>>339911378
I always lovedyou, anon.
>>339911483
It makes sense for Lan to greet Barryl warmly, he proved himself skilled, he's a licensed official (iirc, the game came out 10 years ago), and he saves the day twice
