Why does everyone prefer Zero over X?
More edgy.
I don't.
But I prefer Protoman over Megaman.
>>342718208
>Taller
>More powerfull
>use a beamsword
>>342718208
Cuz X spends way too much time bitching internally about having to fight.
>>342718208
Because he isn't a cunt in X7
>>342718365
>More powerful
X has limitless potential though
>>342718416
>limitless potential
literally a meme term to make him feel better.
>>342718521
>meme term
Zero being more popular was bullshit perpetrated by Inafune. For years people just took his word.
>>342718208
aside from the power nips, he has a better design. Light doesn't know how to be aesthetic as fuck like wiley does

You don't know shit. Ultimate Armor X wrecks everything. by the time of Command Mission happens he can beat the shit out of everything alone with that armor.
>>342718208
I like Zero more than X because I feel like Zero actually put in more effort to be a hero than X. X complained a lot about fighting and really didn't take into consideration about the people he would help if he fought
>>342719035
and so can absolute zero

I have to say I'm pretty sure everyone I had ever met in my life hadn't read creator commentary back on Mega Man development until maybe 2007.

Nigger zero vs zero vs megaman zero zero
which one is the coolester?
>>342719438
The X in MMZ is a copy, he doesn't have the years of experience of the real X, even Zero call him out about that.
>>342719682
Meant for >>342719436
He does get a lot of the most memorable scenes, for better or worse.
>>342718208
For me it was that infinite dash at the start or sigma fortress
>>342718208
I think it's cool that instead of getting new guns to equip, you get new combo moves you have to input. I'm a little mixed on leaving the names of them in Japanese, but it works. I was never a fan of the "pew pew pew" style of megaman games, but Zero turned it around for me a bit.
>>342718208
I prefer melee over pew pew
>>342718208
I don't.
Blue, simple design.
X >>> Zero for me
>>342719042
I just can't see that interpretation at all. But maybe that displays the breakdown in the games as the series went on. Every one of the original three SNES games ends with a textdump internal monologue longer than the total amount of dialog in the game about X reflecting on the nature of conflict, and how he fears his efforts might ultimately be hurting his quest to bring about peace, or why these maverick attacks keep happening.
Zero's personalizing character came in strong in X1 where he clearly was willing to die to further his cause, and even as he lay dying would still try to help X by giving him his buster.
But in X4 on; the game script doesn't have X's contemplative internal dialog. It does have a lot of lip service to X's moral conflict, and this actually hurts the characterization having the same conversation with half the rank and file mavericks was redundant. Since... well there was never going to be a choice to talk them out of fighting, and he only gets to advance a cause peacefully in the credits of X5.
Zero acts with certainty but he is shortsighted with his actions. That leads him to personally kill someone he supposedly loved, just because she was in front of him on a mission, and his regret from that causes him to play into Sigma's plans, spread a virus, and nearly end the world in the next game.
>>342719678
Nigger Zero, he's the same as the normal one with upgraded armor and Megaman Zero is the same zero on a shittier body
>>342719042
>Literally fathers of all reploid.
>All reploid like his sons

>>342718208
It's the sword. Plebs love the fuck out of swords. Also, he's red and edgier.
>>342718416
And yet zero is the stronger character in every game.
>>342718340
Good taste.
>>342718208
zero is a shit protoman is better
>>342720654
But can he fire hadokens to one shot shit?
I didn't fucking think so.
When i was a kid i used to think Zero was protoman on steroids.
>>342720816
Forget da pic :^)
>>342718208
Casuals think that melee require more skills than shooting and his own series is quite good
>>342720816
ZEROFAGS ON SUICIDE WATCH
>>342720654
He's supposed to be better at the beginning but by the end of the game fully upgraded X is generally more useful
>>342720702
Protoman is shit
>>342720405
People think X is a fucking pussy when he is just reflecting about all the shit he's doing, like they didn't even read the dialogue in the end of the snes X games. In X7 he's like "maybe fighting doesn't solve shit" but then he realizes not doing nothing about it doesn't help either. By X8 he pretty much just say "Stop this shit or I'll shoot" to the mavericks.
>>342720654
X in X3 mindnumbingly stronger than Zero. When X gets Zero's saber it becomes much more deadly.
>>342720816
He can be top tier in 2 VS games though, even beats the faggot that throws hadokens and shoryukens

>>342721089
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hj5STPHDnJQ
Probably because zero is a girl
>>342719042
X has been fighting against mavericks for a much longer time than zero, in the ending of megaman zero you see he has been fighting without rest over hundreds of years, never being to rest and have peace.
Even a strong soldier would get tired of constant conflict after ten years, let alone hundreds of years fighting alone.
>>342721873
They should have let hackafune roll with the original concept of turning X bitter and evil
>>342721321
>tfw they included the lighning loops in PXZ2
>>342722045
But that wasn't Inafune's idea. Hell the Zero SERIES wasn't Inafune's idea.
>>342718208
Zero was the original design for X.
Also he's a tragic hero whereas X is a bit of a mary sue. (Although, he ultimately becomes corrupted in the Megaman Zero series)
The biggest mistake they made with X was in the Playstation games when they decided to give him a pre-pubescent voice... Niggers, his name is MegaMAN X. Not Megaboy X.
In my headcanon, X has a mature voice and always wears the white armor.
because of his cool helmet tassel.
>>342723451
>Although, he ultimately becomes corrupted in the Megaman Zero series
stop posting
>>342723495
Am I the only one that preferred the MMZ design of Zero despite liking both designs for different reasons?
>>342718416
Zero with his true strength can 1 shot X during their fight in X5, so it really doesn't matter in the end.
>>342718208
Green Lightbulb Nipple
>>342718521
Zero isn't as adaptable or modular as X.
There's not one game where X doesn't become OP as fuck compared to Zero toward the end.
That's the whole point, Zero's difficulty curve is generally consistent whereas X starts steep and becomes easier by late game. (Assuming you upgrade everything you can)
X is for completionists, Zero is for minimalists.
It truly is a great game design when it's done correctly.
>>342723451
>X is a bit of a mary sue
>Although, he ultimately becomes corrupted in the Megaman Zero series)
Play the games, you fucking retard.
fact is, zero is a fucking demon, the definite edgy teenagers wet dream. with a sword.
zero is going to try to fucking destroy the world someday... but X is going to stop it when that happens.
X > Zero by a mile.
>>342723789
This nigga got it right.
>>342723893
>>342723629
As far as I remember MMZ Zero and MMZ X are both copies.
The original Zero is corrupted (supposedly) and Copy X is corrupted... and as far as I know Copy X is the only X around at the time.
So if Copy X is corrupted and Copy Zero is a good guy, then my statement that X becomes corrupted stands true.
>>342724009

Yeah about X8... X ain't shit.
>>342724068
The Zero in MMZ is the same one with a shitty backup body, Copy X is a complete different copy made by Ciel, the real X is a fucking ghost. Play the games again and stop posting bullshit.
>>342724156
There was the MMX Collection for Gamecube, i suppose
>>342724068
You're space jamming incredibly hard. And you still proved that you don't know what the fuck you're talking about since X became a cyber elf in the Z series.
Pathetic.
>>342724068
The real X is still alive, he is just trapped holding back some kind of virus you kill anyway.
Copy X is just a clone, who cannot even tap 50% of the original potential.
>>342724068
No. Both the Real X and Real Zero are is still around. They're both just sealed away during Zero 1.
>>342724234
>The Zero in MMZ is the same one with a shitty backup body
Not that anon, but its not the same body, in fact worst, since he doesn't have some of his more over powered abilities. It would also be ass retarded if it was the same body as his original, since then there was no point to steal his original body and give it to Omega.
>>342724220
>fast charging laser beam shots
>infinite weapon ammo
>faster walk speed
nah man
>>342724373
That's what I meant, the mind is from the real Zero but the body is different, a shittier version. Omega had his real body indeed.
>>342724272
>>342724234
>>342724340
Niggers, then what about that "Original Zero" fight from the MMZ games?
>>342718903
He wants you to imagine your balls in his death grip.
>>342724538
That's Omega who got his original body. Learn your shit before talking, you double nigger.
>>342724538
Nigga what the fuck about it? Its Omega Zero. Zero's body. Zero's mind is the one that you play as.

>>342724703
>Zero's mind is the one that you play as.
No it's his heart. Because Zero doesn't remember jackall.

X and Axl's voices are a pretty big reason I consider X8 a good game

Fucking burn.
>>342724784

You have literally no idea what you are talking about.
its literally the wolverine v cyclops situation

zero / wolverine is the guy with the gimmick that does his own thing because he's his own man or some shit

Which one is considered the peak of megaman X series, 4 or 5?
>>342726446
X1. 4 and 5 are inferior to the first one
>>342720654
By the end of the first X game, he's stronger than Zero.
>>342720654
He will be when he can actually kill Sigma
>>342718208
Zero a shit
>>342718208
I don't.
Zero's design was always garbage in my eyes, both the X one and the MMZ one. Completely forgettable.
I think he is a more interesting character and also more interesting to play(with x you just run and shot from distance)

>>342732084
Trade classic with geo you got yourself a deal
>>342719436
>>342719239
The Zero in the Zero series is the original Zero in a new body. The X you fight is a clone of X. The original X gave up fighting and basically just became an overseeing spirit
hes taller
>>342732084
X>Exe>Starforce>Classic>Volnutt>ZX
>>342726446
X4 is tied with X1 for me.
>>342718208
Because he is in the only Megaman with good consistent story writting besides the battle network ones.
Megaman Zero
>>342732274
Also this is correct, X never got corrupted, X was tired of the never ending fights.
Reminder that Zero was created by Keiji Inafune.
>>342726446
X2>X4>X1>X8>X5=X3>X6>X7
>>342732695
Dude, X2 is also my favorite but X1 is clearly superior.
>>342732687
so? He was there when classic and X were created too.
If you insult his past creations may as well shit on the whole Megaman Franchise.
Lets keep the diaster he created on MN9 isolated there please.
>>342732687
So? Being created by Inafune doesn't suddenly make Zero a faggot.
Because Zero is broken in every X game he's usable in, and usually has one really overpowered ability he can spam non stop to trivialise the game, and where that fails his higher damage output and superior movement options make the difficult parts of the game far easier.
It's quite ironic because the games generally describe X as the beginner character but it's actually the opposite. Just try playing X6 with X, the game was blatantly designed for Zero and it's no surprise that everyone who defends that piece of shit is invariably a Zero player.

What happened?
>>342732863
>>342732853
Zero ruined every game after the first Megaman X because they focused more on him and his melodramatic story than X in most cutscenes, even when you play as X.
Don't forget the fucking trainwreck that was X5.
>>342732892I like X6 and I don't even play Zero
>>342732892
>and usually has one really overpowered ability he can spam non stop to trivialise the game
really?
So who won in the end? Wily or Light?
On one hand Zero proved himself more capable than X and was able to keep on fighting much longer than X was. On the other hand though he was fighting the good fight and not the insane murderbot Wily wanted.
On the other other hand, Wily's maverick virus was ultimately responsible for destroying most of humanity and causing endless wars.
>>342733304
Surely you didn't use X for the Mother Virus(Or whatever it's called) and Hi Max fights
I could not handle how shit those fights were as X
>>342733219
You forgot
>X
>>342733423
Metal Shark player weapon is a godsend. Hi Max fight is really easy with the Blade armor
>>342733415
Nobody won. Hundreds of millions died because of Wily and Light's squabbles, from Megaman Classic to the end of Megaman Zero
>>342718208
So how the fuck did Willy make such a powerful robot?
>>342731519
I actually hate every aspect of Omega and think the series was stronger without him. I am oh so puzzled that Zero 3 is remembered fondly as the highpoint with people gushing about Omega.
>>342724156
Command Mission?
>>342733724
He made a better Bassnium robot
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-byDNFnfak
Ignore the fact they fucked up using upgraded Zero
>>342733219
Weird how they dropped the music name convention entirely and then tried to pick it back up slightly in Battle Network with Serenade and Gospel.
Also you forgot Treble, Bass' rush.
Also in the manga in an afterword one of the guys said they were sad Blues was always alone, so they drew a girl called Rhythm to be his partner.
She never got used though.
>>342733724
when Bass stole the plans for the Super Adapter from Dr Light he likely snagged some of the paperwork for X as well
>>342733251
the fuck are you talking about, Zero was the catalyst that made the X game amazing, he was what you wanted to become when he show up and save your ass.
X2 re-building Zero side mission was fun as hell and let you fight really challenging side boses too.
X3 gaining the ability to play him was ok, could have been done better, but I blame that on the fatc that:
1.He was a afterthrough
2.He had no identity wich he gained when he got his Zaber in X4.
X4 was good, X5 and X6 became a disaster because of crapcom pushing those games for more money, Con Man wanted to stop at X4 and start the Megaman Zero saga after X4.
You have no idea what the fuck you are talking about.
>>342733724
He was a genius after all.
>>342733828
maybe it's just me, but I thought it was stupid how Omega had Zero's original body
>herp, while you were sleeping were took your body and uploaded something else into it
and somehow his original personality survived to get transferred to another body
>>342733724
He was just a very wily scientist.
I don't know why. Coincidentally, MMX got worse and worse as he got more involved in them compared to X.
>X1: Shows up in dialogue scenes and saves you a few times.
>X2: Side objective requires hunting down his parts.
>X3: Can play as him during regular levels.
>X4: Has his own campaign. Can beat the game without ever playing as X.
>X5: Can beat the game without ever playing as X.
>X6: Have to unlock Zero, but the plot's entirely about a virus or nightmare or something that stemmed from Zero.
>X7: Literally cannot play as X until at least halfway through, Zero playable from the start.
I don't know about 8 I was sick of MMX by that point
>>342734038
>he was what you wanted to become when he show up and save your ass
Only in the first game. From the second one on there was no need for him to be a role model anymore, since you've already gone further than he did and defeated Sigma. Unless you're a demented child with brain problems, you'd realize this.
>X2 re-building Zero side mission was fun as hell
It was retarded as fuck and you know this.
>people still don't get which X and Zero are the real ones in the MMZ games
is /v/ really this full of literal retards? It's pretty fucking straightforward.
>>342734350
>X2: Side objective requires hunting down his parts.
I read this as hunting down his pants, damn I must be tired
>>342733724
>>342733884
>>342733902
>>342734101
He readapted the evil energy that came from space in Megaman 8 into the Maverick Virus and implemented it into Zero to make him as strong as he is. That's literally it.
>>342734521
It's like /v/ really doesn't play videogames
>>342734521
wait wait so X and Megaman arent the same person?
>>342734251
>and somehow his original personality survived to get transferred to another body
Which brings us back to >>342724784
How is it Zero is "really Zero" if:
-He's stated as a matter of fact by living witnesses to be a copy of Zero.
-To be more precise he is the reconstituted body of a copy of Zero created by a Cyber Elf.
-He doesn't have Zero's memories at all.
-He doesn't have Zero's mannerisms.
All I got is "Right now you're acting like a hero. Zero was a Hero" but he throws that away in Zero 4.
>>342734842
No. Megaman X is someone completely different from Rockman.
>>342734842
>>342734842
I hope this is bait
>>342734842
>>342734842
X is a reploid body with a cyber elf made from Dr. Light's brain powering it. Mega Man is Light's robot who turned crazy, hijacked Wily's body after killing him and became Dr. Weil. Get it straight.
>>342734917
It happened at a point during the Elf Wars
Leading up the reason as to why even Zero was in that state at the beginning of MMZ.
At some point, Zero's taken out of his body and put into a copy created by Ciel's ancestor to get rid of the Sigma / Zero Virus bullshit once and for all using the Mother Elf and Zero's Body or bullshit.
Weil somehow through political bullshit or someting gets his hands on Zero's actual body and puts the Omega mind in it as well as getting his hands on the Mother Elf, starting the Elf Wars.
Zero and X battle Omega, defeat him, Zero is damaged or something, Omega is sealed away in space, and Weil is banished from Neo Arcadia, X's body is used to seal the Mother Elf while X's cyber elf self splits into 5 pieces, Himself and Four Guardians.
Neo Arcadia is without a leader,
Ciel creates Copy X, he's retarded, Ciel realizes she fucked up and searches for Zero. Then MMZ begins with Passy restoring Zero's body after Ciel finds him.
>>342735432
Wait so that wasn't Mega Mini?
>>342734842
I gotchu senpai.
Check it. Megaman gets upgraded into Megaman X after Megaman and Bass because Dr. Light realized Bass is too cool for school and Megaman didn't stand a chance. He was always picked last in Rockman Soccer
So he made X. At after MMX8, X realized he was now getting outclassed by Zero. So thru science, he got injected into a Japanese man's balls, who later had two sons. One of them died and got digitized and became .Exe
.Exe realized he was STILL outclassed by Protoman and Bass so he fucking turned himself into Electromagnetic waves and became Starforce.
By this point there were only jobbers left and no one too cool for him anymore so he turned himself into Volnutt and had finally got to be the cool guy in a real world having an orgy with Roll, Tron Bonne, and 2 servbots.
Life was good but then he accidentally fell into a trash compactor and got compressed into a Biometal. He figured he could probably fuse with some chick and it would be cool, but then that faggot Biometal Z showed up and then Biometal A.
So he just fucking killed himself instead and became a cyber elf because fuck this cruel world
>mfw every X game after X4
>>342735518
Mega Mini is the cyber elf that pretends to be X in the MMZ games but he downloaded Light's memories so he likely convinced himself he's actually X/Light
What the fuck happened to the original Mega Man? Why was X even created when Rock seemed to be taking care of shit on the reg? Isn't everything okay at the end of Mega Man 10?
>>342736221
There's no information about what happened to the classic era robots, probably were just shutdown.
>>342736221
>What the fuck happened to the original Mega Man?
Presumably dead along with the rest AT LEAST by the time the Space Colony crashes into Earth in X5.
>>342734917
A reploid's personality program (often referred to as their soul in the series) isn't necessarily bound to their body. After the X series, when it was found out that Zero was the origin of the Maverick virus he gave away his original body to be studied (as shown in X6's ending) while his 'soul' was preserved elsewhere. Cyber Elf technlogy was developed and the Mother Elf made as an antibody to the virus. X used it to wipe out the virus. Weil then started the Elf Wars because he was a bitter fuck and also stole Zero's original body uploading a new personality into it (Omega). Zero was made a new body (and it's important to note that by this point in the Mega Man world's history, X and Zero's systems were more or less completely understood so an equivalent body could be made) and together they helped defeat Weil & Omega back in the day and end the war. Zero then figured he should be totally sealed away to avoid further conflict. The "hibernation sickness" referred to in Zero 1 is probably the legit reason why Zero is initially amnesiac; he does regain parts of his memories of the past as the series progresses. He does act a bit different compared to his past self, though.
Most of this shit can be inferred from the games themselves, some details of the Elf Wars comes from the artbooks.

But fucking nothing is explained inbetween those two series. Wily and Light appear in EXE two, but it's pretty obvious it's a different universe.

I have 3 possible theories.
1. Light became a "virus" in that infects reploids to do his bidding so he used them to repair X. Also explaining how those X capsules seem to conveniently appear to X throughout the X games.
2. Ghost shit like with Wily and Sigma
3. im gay

>But fucking nothing is explained inbetween those two series.
What do you even mean by this?
Everyone either died of old age or were shut down. Shit takes places a hundred years later.
Light created X to give Earth a protector
Wily created Zero to wank his ego eternally
You see Light and Wily speaking to X and Zero through capsules and cutscenes.
There isn't a explanation needed other than simple inference.
If you seriously need more than that than just watch the Maverick Hunter X OVA.
>>342737121
Well, that's Capcom's fault, they don't explain shit from ZX to Legends either.
>>342736221
>Why was X even created when Rock seemed to be taking care of shit on the reg?
Light's vanity project, basically. He didn't make X just to be the protector of the future (although he certainly prepared for the possibility with all the fucking upgrade capsules), he knew he could make a robot so advanced it had true free will and went through with it even though he couldn't see it activated in his own lifetime.
Then Wily either copied his idea or simply thought of it at the same time and made Zero. He had a bit more trouble with the guy though, since he went berserk on the regular. He was complete, but Wily still sealed him away. Then he was found as detailed in X4's flashback cutscenes. Sigma and Zero were both infected with the virus Wily had sealed in his lab alongside Zero, and Sigma went crazy while Zero went sane.

See >>342736796
Wily built Zero with the Maverick Virus he got from the extraterrestrial Evil Energy he found (MM8). Light then started building X using the same energy, but instead put him in a capsule that corrected his AI so he wouldn't go apeshit (Maverick) like Zero did.
Dr. Cain finds X's capsules abound a century later, wakes him up and starts making reploids based on him. Sigma then found Zero's capsule sometime after Cain made him.
The original MM Classic cast is presumed all dead because Sigma nuked the fucking planet numerous times.

Shadow's Giga Attack shits on Nightmare Mother, and X can stun lock HiMax just as easily, Zero just deals more damage.
Funny enough, the only truly unbalanced boss in the game is Dynamo but you don't notice because you can prevent him from doing anything
>>342737679
I guess my real question is in that case. Why the fuck is this so poorly explained in the games?
>>342737946
Easy answer: Inafune is a fucking hack.
>>342737675
There's this theory about Wily being the robot from X2. When you see the ending of Bass and the flashbacks in X4 you can see he planned to make Zero with the X2 armor but he isn't like that in X1, probably because he couldn't finish the project. So then, the canon ending of X2 would be not retrieving Zero's parts and letting him rebuild him making the actual Zero.

>Wily canonically said he was building Zero to kill Megaman
>yfw Inafune effectively created an edgelord to kill Megaman so his twisted fucking psychopath donut steel with muh inner conflict drama could take the spotlight for the X series
>Capcom told him to go fuck himself and made Megaman X
>>342737076
He's a program now, similar to what eventually became Cyber-elves, it's a neat little nod to BN if you think about it.
>Light becomes a cyber ghost thing
>Wily becomes a robot by the name of Isoc
>BN Light dedicated his life to net and cyber-world development
>BN Wily dedicated his life to robotics
>>342738182
Or you could simply explain it away as the X-Hunters having found some of Wily's original plans. There's really no need to go down the rabbit hole that is Wily preserving himself somehow, even though some hints exist (like Sigma's 'benefactor' in X5)
>>342718208
Cool, red, sword, starts out stronger than X (story line), overpowered in game.
I still prefer X.
>>342738565
Considering how he helped Sigma in X5 and how obsessed with Zero Isoc from X6 is, is not hard to think that Wily transferred his mind into Serges and then Isoc.
because Zero never manages to stay dead
>>342739148
except the time he actually died
>>342732892
Zero had the harder campaign in X4 though.

>model Z
mmm
>>342718340
I'm all about muh dude Blues.
>>342739738
When? In ZXA?
Everyone and their grandmas knew that, if a ZX3 happened, he would be back.
>>342718208
He was different and had a sword.
Who did the illustrations for the X series from X3 and on? They're pretty tight, but there's like five artists credited per game.
>>342740678
"Sensei" did most of them.
He left for X7 onwards
>>342740678
Tatsuya Yoshikawa worked on X3, X7 and X8
Haruki Suetsugu was X4-X6
