Original Zero has the retarded Spawn huge boots, booblights, and everything in the crotch/upper legs area is fucked up.

He has more flair to him, though. It's a far bolder design, while Zero Zero doesn't stand out as much from the cast. It's almost like they were going for completely different things, or something.

Probably was just so they could reuse the assets instead of animating a new Zero, tho.

He had been promoted to run Megaman, and naturally he wanted his robot dude to be the hero. Capcom would never allow this, so he dropped his OC donut steal manime robot lightsaber guy to supporting character, but over the years, Zero grew into a popular character regardless, and eventually got his own series.

Although I do personally like how the abruptness in which you're throw into that final desperate gamble forces you into Zero's shoes, I do agree that the pacing could have been a hella lot better.
Considering how shitty all of the game's stories have always been I think it was practically a miracle that they managed to end Zero in such an ok way.

Miles better than endless resurrections, if you ask me.

Yes it fucking was, Kraft took the selfish option and Zero took the selfless option in terms of how they reacted to Weil's manipulation. Kraft risked hurting humans while Zero gave his life to save them despite humans shitting on him the whole game.

The only thing weird about Zero 4 was how they didn't mention the Guardians all dying.

So one random-ass maverick is all it takes? All the mavericks before then had made that very same selfish decision while the heroes made the right one before then.

What the fuck are you talking about? Kraft didn't even kill Zero.

You sound as autistic as the people who whine about Elpizo "killing" X. Kraft was fine and to simplify Operation Ragnarok as a love story shoes that you have a warped view of the game.

The whole story up to then is that Zero just kills shit because it's all he understands, then after Kraft has his sperg moment, he decides to answer the cheesy 'what am I fighting for' question by bailing mankind out. He's fighting because he was made to fight, but it's supposed to be on humanity's behalf against actual threats.

But the english localization didn't really convey that so well.
>>
>>344619735
Kraft was the plot leading up to the end. He may as well have pulled the trigger. It was not a fitting final plotline at all. Maybe it wasn't even intended to be until halfway into the game's development. Honestly, Omega would have been a more fitting death than Kraft's plot.

And I don't care about Elpizo, since it's not like he killed X in hand to hand combat or something implausible, just an empty shell.
>>
>>344619513
>only it was good enough to kill Zero. Pathetic.

Do you properly remember the ending? Kraft's shenanigans are part of what led Zero to be on the ship, but Zero death has NOTHING to do with Kraft. Zero was going to be on Weil's ass ready to shank him with or without Kraft's intervention.

How does that make any sense at all? Kraft STOLE Weil's space station and Weil stole it back.

Had Kraft not been involved at all, nothing would have changed. That you're holding Kraft responsible like some sort of sperg prosecutor is quite revealing.

Why don't you tell us all how Kraft is responsible for Zero dying, though.

>Honestly, Omega would have been a more fitting death than Kraft's plot.
Omega was fucking dead and seeing how most of the fanbase love that Zero died fighting for humanity on a falling goddamn space station I would say you're full of shit on this point.

He did, the guy is just having a spaz attack. Kraft was the huge commando guy with the gun who lead the eight Mythoids carrying out Operation Ragnarok. You fight him at the game's midpoint and then he hijacks a space station to fire at Weil's city. You kill him but upon returning, you find out the station is going to fuck everyone up due to Weil. Cue final act.

Then he shouldn't have been involved, it made the entire plot way shittier. Like we're supposed to care about this human and reploid's terrible love story and then BOOM the character of about a dozen games, nearly ALL of which involve world-ending catastrophies dies permanently. It's fucking poor pacing, and poor storytelling. I don't know if you're obliged to defend every shit plot development or what, but the fact you can't even admit to this is "quite revealing."

Who says it's permanent? He could still come back anytime he wants.
If Mwu La Flaga can come back after a anti-flag ship cannon to the face and twinkling ghost thumbs up, then there's nothing that can stop plot armor. He could totally be ass pulled back if capcom was interested in another Z game for bizarre reasons.

You are clearly getting hung up on the wrong part of the argument. I'm not blaming Kraft for Zero's death. I'm saying he was a shitty sub-plot lead-in for the game featuring the death of the character.

According to you. I thought he was a really fun boss.

>Like we're supposed to care about this human and reploid's terrible love story and then BOOM the character of about a dozen games, nearly ALL of which involve world-ending catastrophies dies permanently.
Seriously why are you so triggered by these two events? What does the love story aspect (which had like 2 minutes at most of screen presence) have to do with the finale of the game at all? While the Zero games have always had wonky pacing, I think you have a really juvenile understanding of storytelling, since you continue to blame Zero's death on Kraft.

The guy with green hair and a large gun. He starts off on Weil's side, but goes Maverick and shoots Neo Arcadia with the Ragnarok laser in a bid to kill Weil and humanity. This leads to Zero going to the satellite and putting him down while telling him that he fucked up.

But then Weil survives due to literal plot armor, and he makes the satellite start heading towards Earth in a bid to kill everyone (I guess?) so Zero goes through two easy stages to find a way back onto the satellite, leading to the final stand.

tl;dr Kraft had shit all to do with Zero's actual death, he's there for the RACE RELATIONS plot the Zero series has going on.
>>
>>344620443

There's a huge difference between saying that one aspect of the plot is shit, and that the whole plot is awful.

Weil and Zero's confrontation was great.

Kraft's overall effect was negligible. Should it have happened? Probably not, but it doesn't have any real effect on the overall plot.

You can essentially look at it as a side-story if you really really really hate the idea of sub-plots.

No, you just flailed around on your keyboard. The fact that you called Kraft "a suitable villain for the ending" (your words, not mine) shows that you have no sense of the discussion.

Here's a hint: Weil is the main villain of MMZ4, established right at the start of the game.

>>
>>344621561
Definitely less overdesigned than his final form in X.
>>
>>344621474

It's a sub-plot that wraps up before the finale.

Not every single sub-plot always needs to lead off to the finale. There's more than just the main character's story occurring in a game's world, and sub-plots and side-stories help to flesh it out.

It could definitely have been better, but there was nothing truly wrong with it as it. It takes nothing away from the game, and leads up to a decent boss.
>>
>>344621474
I agree that Kraft and Neige was a shit plot, and it went nowhere, and most people here probably do too. What is bullshit is claiming that this directly damages the events of the ending specifically.
It might make the game's pacing wonky and the story disjointed, but they have always had these flaws. You're the only one letting that shit get in the way of experiencing the ending.

>Weil: "Are you even capable of it? The Reploid hero, protecting justice and humanity! I am one of those humans you have sworn to protect! Do you have it in you to defeat me?!"
>Zero: "I never cared about justice, and I don't recall ever calling myself a hero... I have always only fought for the people I believe in. I won't hesitate... If an enemy appears in front of me, I will destroy it!"

It's a pretty badass speech in english. The only thing they didn't translate to english was that Zero straight up said "I don't care about protecting humanity." So it was even more heavily emphasized that Zero was fighting only for his friends, but that still comes across really well in the english version anyways.

I heard that they originally wanted to port the X4 sprite to the game but the gba couldn't handle it so they just did the copy sprite

It's too painful to discuss. And no real reason to unearth old wounds. There is no part of the franchise more dead.

It's probably meant to be Ciel finding it.

If it's even a person though, I don't personally find that to be very silhouette-y looking

That's not Fefnir. At least Leviathan had her murderboner thing going on. Fef's stupid lieutenants had more facetime than he did.

Fanart is good stuff, anon.

Bit of a tangent, but who here has actually read the MMZ manga? Its probably one of the shittiest things I've witnessed in a long times. I can't even begin to get into how much is fucked up, but Zero being a shitty coward is probably my least favorite aspect.

Fixed that for you.

>I didn't force you to call out my lie

You're technically correct, no one forced us to call out your lies. But no one forced you to be a faggot and lie about shit in the threads either.

What was the explanation of their deaths? Just Weil's henchmen offing them?

>Classic threads are quality but tend to die pretty fast
Maybe it's cause I haven't been to a lot of Classic threads, but from what I've seen, aren't there a lot of people posting Roll?

They even say in the complete works that they felt like they wasted her character. Such a shame.

Anyone have that art of the four guardians looking up at Ragnarok falling?

I like Zero's line but it's a bit hilarious the kind of logic that Weil tries to use.

Can Megaman ever make a comeback after all this?

You lied about Zero dieing in the sub-plot.

You could have just not fucking lied about Zero dieing in the sub-plot.

So yes, of course, it is your fault.

>>344622750
Did you play Zero 3?

They blow up with Omega.
>>
>>344622923

That got retconned.

Then it got retconned again.

Then it got retconned last year.

>>344622750
After Zero killed Omega, the lab they were fighting in exploded.

Zero was saved by the Mother Elf, but everyone else died.

I don't think you get to take the moral high ground still being this determined to "ruin the whole thread."

Let it go, anon.

It's just the right level of autism I can appreciate and be a fan of, and I say that as a compliment, considering all the effort that was put into it.

>when all the Wily shadows light up in the background

This tickles my fanboyism.

Nigga they helped you destroy Omega but died in the blast. This is all handled better in Japan because they got those fucking drama packs.

>>344622495
Shut the fuck up, people called you out when you were acting like Kraft killed Zero.

Honestly the final nail in the coffin was Minus Infinity. Because it was too fucking good. Why do we need to beg for Mega Man when fangames are a million times better than what we'd get?
>>
>>344622638
the GBA has the exact same 2D graphic capabilities as the PS1, more or less. the sprite could definitely have worked.

Mind you, the PS1 X games (and Mega Man 8) and the Zero games all function on the same 16 colors per sprite thing that the SNES games did. Thats why Mega Man and Bass was an SNES game.

it was more of a stylistic choice. having him look like X series Zero is cool, but making it a mirror match makes it cooler. having Omega be identical to Zero, but stronger and with a deeper crimson color, makes for a better psychological effect. otherwise it's easy to dismiss Omega as not being Zero because you are playing Zero and he looks different.

The fuck? How? Where?
They're never fucking even mentioned again outside of their Biometals after 3's ending.
