Hey /v/, what went wrong. Explain how inafune is a complete sheckeler.
>unremarkable stages
>easy bosses
>absorption bonus mechanic may as well not be there due to how useless it is
>most enemies are just cannon fodder
>story worse than "Wily done it"
>Ray mode's difficulty is so fucking bipolar that you'll think that they didn't even playtest it
The graphics and performance should have been better.
Other than that it's an okay game, just not a 4 million dollar one.
I would tell you but the answer got delayed
>>342843719
The entire "dash into enemy" mechanic is at odds with Mega Man game design and causes problems
well, they only asked for 900k but they received 4 times the money and still fucked it up
>>342843345
Very poor management is what it ultimately boils down to. 4m + some more from a publisher is significant money, enough to do a very good job if focused, but it's not a LOT of money, it's not enough to fuck around with or try to get crazy. I've worked at software startups (which is essentially what this was) and it's shocking how fast it's possible to burn through a funding round if you aren't very disciplined, or even if you are (though they weren't). People joke about Inafune being "a businessman" but the whole problem is that he most definitely is NOT a businessman, he is the classic pure artist creative type. He can do good work if he's under the whip of an experienced good project manager and he can focus on what he's good at and have other people in charge of the rest, but he sucks at running the whole shebang himself. They got very distracted, for example they promised way too many ports day 1, worked on anime and other tie-in stuff, again simultaneously. These are all things you do as a small startup AFTER a successful launch of the core on one platform.
I mean, yes the game itself has tons of issues too. But the above is a super obvious, objective basic example of total mismanagement. Inafune burned a ton of money on nada, which then created a vicious feedback (they had to start cutting, which fucked up other planning, necessitating more cuts and delays), the whole problem with community relations was mismanagement, etc etc.
He looks like he may do ok under Microsoft's thumb, so he may keep on going in the industry in a specific focused art role. But he'll (hopefully) never be allowed to run his own thing ever again. He blew it, he sucks at it.
>>342844243
It's less "still" anon, if anything it may be the extra money that was the problem. If they'd only received 900k even Inafune probably wouldn't have been tempted to embark on a lot of the crazy shit, aiming to port to everything under the son, doing tie-ins, etc. They would have been forced to be leaner. Instead they got way more then they asked for, and instead of just saying "ok, now we have a cushion for when things go wrong (which they always do), and can simply make the same game have better graphics and more testing", they got stars in their eyes and immediately embarked on stupid stretch goals and crazy hires and crap that would have easily sucked up 20x the amount instead of 4x. Too much can sometimes be just as dangerous or more as too little, changes expectations too. It's like devhell, when a game is "in development" for 7 years+. It's easy to fall into the mindset of "well, now we have to make it even better to justify such a long dev time!" and pretty soon it becomes impossible. Somebody at some point has to put their foot down and give up on perfection or else kill it.
Feels like they made the levels before they made the mechanics, making it feel very unpolished. The game is generally ridiculously but then it throws OHKOs at you out of nowhere in cheap. The entire Call stage is horrible.
Ray is kinda fun but like >>342843719 said, the difficulty is all over the place. She;s more fun than Beck because you don't have to worry about the dash gimmick, but she doesn't really feel like she belongs either. The levels definitely weren't made with her in mind.
Overall the game is very unpolished and amateurish. Even if Inafune isn't the father of Megaman, you'd still think he would have learned something after 20+ years of games.
>>342844841
>Asks for 900K

They really should have gotten the first game out of the door before trying to expand the franchise. Having 2 MN9 games planned, a MN9 cartoon, Red Ash, a Red Ash anime, and porting to 11 consoles all at once?
The fuck were they thinking
>>342844841
the problem is people gave money to a bunch of hacks
the level design is garbage and would have been no matter how much money they got
They wasted more money on porting the game to every console ever than on making the actual game, hence why it ended up being this shit.
>>342843345
Nothing.
It's pretty decent for a £15 crossbuy game.
>>342843885
The worst thing is how you have to dash into the enemy immediately for 100% absorption.
It's like, why is there even a sniper rifle if the game is just going to call you a shitter for actually sniping anything with it?
>>342847861
I hate games with grading systems based on performance. This is the only reason I couldn't enjoy the Zero series.
>>342843885
Gunvolt had the same problem too with it's tagging mechanic.
Dunno why they insist on bogging it down.
>>342848081
Unlike the Zero games, the grading system in MN9 does absolutely nothing.
>>342848383
This game is nothing but disappointments.
>>342848383
True, but it started in X4 or X5 i dont remember. Getting high ranks in those games is easy.
>>342849319
X5.
>>342844841
So at the end of the day it is still their own damn fault. Their poor management and lack of restraint ruined everything.
Dynatron was the only good thing to come out of this game
It's actually pretty good, the graphical style is just somewhat lacking.
The game is mediocre to decent. The internet is just being a huge drama queen, as always.
>>342845687
To be fair if you offered to make a thing and got 400% the expected level of fan attention you'd assume it's a runaway hit that needs immediately sequels and cosmetic merchandising.
Unlike Valve though they forgot to make the initial game good.
BETTER

What do you think is more likely to fail, getting 30 dollars to make a meal for the evening, or getting 30,000 dollars and being urged to spend all of it? Project inflation is fucking up a lot of kickstarter projects.
>>342851765
>That voice
>good
>>342852574
Basically this. Having project constraints can often lead to a better end result and force the creator to think outside the box. Giving too much power or resources can harm a project unless the lead knows how to allocate them. Its kind of like Lucas with Star Wars. But the sad thing is I think theres a decent game here that someone tried to save. Someone should do a fan 8bit demake
The level design was either bland or shit. It's like they forgot what some of the Mega Man games did wrong and put them into MN9, shit like instant death electricity for example. The dash mechanic dragged down the game more than anything.Also, no obligatory boss rush near the end game.
Whats weird is it seems the game encourages you to be reckless with the dash instead of the conventional platform pace. Normally shit like that would get you killed
>>342852953
I wouldn't even call it constraints. The thing with the kickstarter money is that it isn't really his own. Otherwise he could have just made the game the way he wanted it to be and that's okay. A budget that is too big is still a constrained budget. Only making the game he meant to make with 900k would not legally be embezzlement, but it would certainly be the closest thing that he can't go to jail for.
>>342853194
You can blame that on Boss Rush mode being a stretch goal.
Can't put in the main game if it's gonna be its own mode.
>>342843885
Ray's gameplay compliments the mechanic. As she's a melee character she could instantly do it anways, but on top of that when she kills, she instantly absorbs at 100% rate so it's not even a problem. Her dash damages too and if it kills (which it can one-shot a lot of things), it also absorbs. Overall she's just more fun despite the mode being more difficult due to overall game design.
>>342843719
The story could work in an inevitable sequel but HAHAHAHAH
>William White is really Bill Blackwell and Dr Blackwell is his father
>Blackwell himself didn't really do anything wrong and was framed so he's not even really a Wily
>Acts like he's so great after Trinity's shit is stopped
>Blackwell says that you aren't a visionary for fixing problems you caused in the first place
>White goes off with a "You'll see, you'll all see!"
I'm sure a subsequent sequel would make White an antagonist, creating more mighty numbers to prove how great he is
>>342845441
>He's a businessman, not a creator
Inafune didn't have any of the talent at capcom to carry his bullshit this time
>>342852608
>Using english voices
All the mighty numbers have very different personalities depending if you use english or japanese voices.Not gonna touch those french voices
>>342854184
oh man I forgot about that shit
a fucking boss rush in a megaman game as a stretch goal
I dunno about the whole "Inafune didn't create Mega Man" thing that I seem to keep seeing lately, though. Kitamura did make a sprite of Mega Man first, it's true, but Inafune designed what we now think of as Mega Man today in official art, based off of that sprite. Had it been anyone else, Mega Man could have looked very different. Just look at how the Mega Man from Captain N turned out based on someone else's interpretation of the in-game sprite with nothing else to go on. So at the very least, I think Inafune should at least be credited as co-creator, if nothing else, even if people are really upset with him as of late.
>>342844436
This.
>way too many ports day
This is something worrying me immensely about Bloodstained. I hope the Vita and WiiU ports don't drag down the entire project.
Pre Rec actually likes this game because they are unbiased from not having any involvement with the kickstarter or even seeing the trailer.
Maybe if you guys gave the game a chance we could get a sequel that would be more to your liking?

>>342856498
Classic is not equal to X is not equal to Legends and so on. Ports and rereleases is a PROBLEM if you want new content. Also, who the fuck would count fan created content?
>>342854506
Still I figured you'd pick something up being so close to it for so long
>>342856782
>Also, who the fuck would count fan created content?
Mega Man has it way better when it comes to fangames than most other franchises do. Games like Rokko Chan, Minus Infinity, and Rosenkreuzstilette may as well be official games for how good they are.
>>342854184
>$2 000 000 stretch for a boss rush
Hhhhehehe
>>342856498
Most of those games blow though. Capcom is about quantity not quality.
and there's new areas. There's never been a classic series game with updated new graphics. Or a proper 3D game.
So will there be any good r34 of Ray to come of this?
I liked Mighty No 9 desu

The problem is nobody seemed to pay attention to those and instead all jumped on Inafune's cock.
>>342861401
same
>>342861795
I read the original /v/ thread. There were people who were right. They said that /v/ doesn't know the difference between a producer and a director. But they were the minority and got shot down.
And it turns out that Inafune isn't even a good businessman. The entire project was mismanaged.
I would say the number one error was that they were too ambitious. They were high on the rush of having so much funding from crowdfunding and didn't consider the consequences of their stretch goals and promises.
Let's say, for example, that it was PC only, no need to spend any money on ports. That alone would have given the project a lot of focus. But no, there was supposed to be a cartoon and fifty different ports and all this other bullshit, and here we are.
>>342861259
Me too. I never played any Megaman games growing up, so this isn't disappointing
>>342859746
Which games exactly blow? Every series has like one or two stinkers, but for the most part, most Mega Man games are at least decent.
>It is the present year
What the fuck kind of line is that?
>>342851765
Hey!Call and Trinity are also good.
>>342843719
no playable call beyond tha gay stage
>call that looked almost exactly like roll got in instead of E
Megaman fans deserve their suffering.
Can Capcom just make a new fucking MegaMan already?
>>342864240
They'll let someone make a shitty licensed tie-in for the cartoon eventually.
Kinda how like SEGA let Big Red Button make the Sonic Boom game.
Your only hope is to go find knockoffs to play.
>>342863918
Wasn't she only playable in the online modes outside of that stage?
>>342864412
But whats amazing is that this isnt a dead franchise like Sonic, people actually want a new MegaMan experience and were willing to crowdfund a knockoff. The market is there and yet they dont want to create something that arguably is pretty simple game design by todays standards?
>>342864778
>this isnt a dead franchise like Sonic
HAHAHAHA.
>>342864106
That vote was rigged as hell. Call already had her current design but last minute they decided they'd do a vote.
>>342854479
Don't forget his egotistical "this code is so brilliant, it must be mine" quip.
That was actually a pretty neat detail for the kind of Saturday Morning Cartoon feeling MN9 goes for.
>>342864927
Ok yeah it is dead, but at least salvageable
You know the drill.
>>342864778
>But whats amazing is that this isnt a dead franchise like Sonic

Also, at least Sonic is still getting games and Sega hasn't abandoned it completely like Crapcom abandoned Megaman.

So muchpatrician tasteSeriously, I don't give a fuck if people like asinine ROM hack level designs built around one hit killing you every step of the way, that was never my idea of fun. I didn't even manage to 'ragequit like in the NES XD' like the dev purportedly wanted you to do, it just make me say 'oh, it's one of THESE games' and just quit playing as opposed to wasting time on it
I made a merchant on N Terraria
I named him Inafune.
>>342868208
She should have been a cute tsundere villain that is easy to bully.
It's a fun and rewarding game, it just betrays expectations and doesn't play 100% exactly like existing Mega Man games. Apparently, plenty of people just aren't willing to learn a new system and just want a comfy nostalgia trip.
>>342868515
If the new system is ass of course people aren't going to learn it.
>>342867884
There are lots of better ones. My personal favorites are Rock Force, Revolution, and Super Fighting Robot.
>>342868056

I felt betrayed when I actually got to play it, fuck MegaPhilX's obsession with instant death hazards. It's a shame the levels are so shit because the weapons are actually quite good, though, especially that nail shield.
>>342869052
Destructoid simply never played other better copies and bought in to the hype.
>>342869052
>Destructoid literally rated Megaman Unlimited 9.5/10
And the guy who reviewed it was a play tester who is in the game's credits and who went in other Megaman news sites half-calling out people who said they didn't like it, yes.
>>342869052
>Destructoid
>>342867884
To be fair, Mega Man Unlimited isn't really that good.
It is overrated shit like Megaman 2.
>>342869052
Rock Force is by no means perfect. But you know why it's better than Unlimited?
Because when people complained about that games instant death hazards the dev actually went back and fixed them.
>>342855094
The Wii U and Vita ports are being handled by an entirely different studio to prevent that.
>>342866856
Thats one terminal case of shit taste f4m
>>342863918
that one level with call was enough for me to never want to play it again.
How can someone fuck up something as basic as a Mega Man game?.
>>342869052
Honestly, Unlimited's instadeath obsession doesn't even seem that bad anymore when compared to MN9. At you get items to negate spikes/pits, and your iframes actually protect you.
>>342866046
C is the only one that looks fun to play as.

All of the platform porting.
Should have just stuck with PC, XBox and Playstation. Possibly WiiU as well.
Dina fucking with backer feedback probably didn't help, either. After that whole issue no one talked about the game anymore.
>>342873805
Well people still talked about it, it was just the only people who were left were too busy sucking Inafune's cock to voice any concerns.
>>342873376
No. Easily one of the worst community managers in memory. Even Stanley Woo is remembered comically, not vilefully.
>>342848383
What advantages did the grading system give in MMZ? I didn't care too much about it when I played it
>>342874071
In Zero 2 and 3 clearing a level at high enough rank got you the bosses skill.
In Zero 4 they made that tied to the weather system so the score system wasn't as important.
>>342874071
Getting S or A ranks give the bosses an additional attack. In MMZ2, 3, 4, beating the bosses with a S or A rank will unlock a new attack. Other than that, getting high ranks is also a self-imposed challenge if you want.
>>342862595
That shit reminds me when Minecraft was in alpha people got sick of the constant threads and people reposting the same OC that was getting stale so the accusations of viralling began.
Of course they were shot down by those same types of bandwagon faggots going "No way, Minecraft is a comfy sandbox game that is in no way needs to be advertised. Notch is a bro he even put yay /v/ in the game. He would never let us down!"
>>342874360
where did he put /v/ in minecraft ?
>>342843719
>easy bosses
This game can be many things, but it's definitely not easy, especially not the bosses, most of them have one hit kill attacks that you can't avoid unless you died on it or looked up a guide.

Not the GOG version but the Humble Store DRM Free version is floating around on torrent sites.

The delay was caused by the partnership with Deep Silver, because they wanted to put the game physically on store shelves. That, and trying to get the online features to work on all the supported platforms.
>>342852190
>>342879858
No, it was for Mighty No. 9. Red Ash isn't even done yet.
>>342880001
When did they announce that Mn9 would even come out for Fuze?
>>342873665
Yeah no kidding, that looks good!
>>342878695
Only if Ray gets more porn
This guy is straight up bullshit sometimes along with MN02.
>>342880867
He only has only three possible actions he can take, and he clearly signposts which one he is going to do (raises arms = jump, flex = explode, whatever the third action is = run). Even in his powered up state he won't mix it up.
Mighty no2 can instant kill you if you don't mash out of getting frozen, but that's really about it.
>>342880867
Use Countershade's weapon against MN2 it's better than using her weakness.
>>342880867
the trick to 02 is to realize her weakness is garbage and that you should be a bulldozer instead
>>342880867
Why are instant kills out of nowhere in boss fights so common in this game? Like, it kind of makes sense on Battalion because he has a huge fuckoff windup with a mini-cinematic for his instant kill, but even then you're probably gonna die to it the first time because of how fast the bullet comes out combined with not knowing the timing. But in this fight, it's all "oh yeah he's got bigger flames after he went in front of the screen, next 3 attacks or something like that are death". Same with Countershade and his purple bullets.
Keep in mind I haven't actually played the game but I watched both Trihex and Floe's playthroughs so take what I have to say with a grain of salt. Still, I swear normal Mega Man games didn't do this shit at all. Literally the only one I can remember is that one nuclear bomb boss in Mega Man 10 where if you shot the glass part of his head, you'd blow up the level and die. Even then that shit sucked anyway and it was the only time a boss had an instakill gimmick iirc.
>>342881230
Jesus Christ it looks so bad. Those HP bars belong in a flash game.
>>342881230
I knew MN9 was a Mega Man clone, but I didn't know it was a Duck Tales clone too.
Did someone save the Mad Hatter thread?
>>342881615
it's pretty great
Did Inafune at least apologize for this shit?
>>342881203
Oh I know his telegraphs, really the visual ones are better than his audio hints because the fucking characters chatting ruins it, but my point is that one hit kills like this arent challenging, but frustrating.
>>342881549
>Literally the only one I can remember is that one nuclear bomb boss in Mega Man 10 where if you shot the glass part of his head, you'd blow up the level and die
That's Mega Man Unlimited.
The Mega Man series proper only really had instant kills when the arenas had pits and part of their attack pattern was trying to get you into that pit. I.e. Mecha Dragon, Storm Eagle, Pegasus asshole from Zero 4 etc.

Do you faggots not realize how HARD it is to make a game that is fun? They didn't steal your money and purposely make a shitty game. They just fucked up. They tried, but they failed. There is no ulterior motive, you butthurt retard neckbeards.

>>342881893
I didn't buy it, don't blame me
>>342881836
see, much like 02, the trick is realize you need to be a bulldozer
MN9 is so frustrating since it could ALMOST be good. It just needed better management, a reasonable amount of ports, and a good director.
>>342881934
Her OC is a self-insert. But amusingly notice how jealous she is of white people. She has brown eyes, and her OC has green.
>>342882178
I'd like to see you take on Avi as a bulldozer.
>>342882178
i'm not blaming you , i'm blaming both Inafume who did a shit job and didn't even apologise
and kickstarter who promote those scam by not blocking their accounts and refund the money
>>342881230
>>342881737
>>342882178
I've just been a bulldozer because it's faster than running. Holy shit, I'mma be a bulldozer errywhere now
>>342882607
At the end of the day it's not kickstarters problem if a project succeeds or not, they' just gather the money for the project and take a cut.
>>342882768
>Game designed around speed running and incorporates a dash to kill mechanic to push it.
>It's better to just be a bulldozer
>>342882347
sadly he only has one attack you can bulldoze effectively, it takes too long to kill him
have a final boss instead
>>342882895
>"The RPG is the most broken weapon in the game!"
>Fuck you, I'm a bulldozer
>>342882895
Seismic sleeper OP.
>>342882895
Any other bosses it works on, or is that all?
>>342883541
I doubt it'd work very effectively on Countershade since he's always teleporting around.
I mean you could still probably do it though.
>>342883541
here's the boss you're actually supposed to use it on, but he's kind of boring
you can do other silly things with it like breaking the factory boss's arms or bulldozing through dyna's lightning attack, but nothing interesting enough to post webms of
>>342875619
Battalion for the tanks, Cryosphere for the computer.
Though yeah the time scam is real
>>342876447
>>342876610
You basically have to beat most if not all of the game to unlock the online race and co-op.
I matched up with someone is a race very quickly and then it crashed at the ready up screen.
>>342880684
>More
Does she even have any at all yet?
Does anyone know how to equip the retro skin?
>>342884614
I don't think so
But maybe my checking skills are weak
>>342881882
Doesn't the Zero fight in X5 has that fuck you move that is an instant kill if you take too long fighting him?
But outside of that, you're right. Megaman generally tries to keep its difficulty honest.
>>342884689
You don't. You just use Maniac Mode when you make a new file.
Enjoy your OHKO artificial difficulty mode.
>>342884985
It takes averagely 5 minutes with Zero under 20% health for that move to even come out.
The fight is pathetically easy as a lot of X5, if you're fucking around that much - and I don't even LIKE X5 - it's basically more of an easter egg than a "Fuck You" move forcing you to restart arbirtrarily for not being able to evade it on the first try.
You know, immediate trial and error, what action games thrive on.
>>342882880
The dash doesn't do damage its just how you finish off enemies that are glowing.
You can see in the webms that he still has to dash when the bosses turn purple at certain thresholds.
Ray doesn't need to do this however.
>>342881882
Even when it comes to bosses with spikes/pits in their arena I can't recall many where it was actually a threat. Like Burst Man and Tengu Man could get you pretty close but it was more of a scare tactic than anything.
Like, the only one I can think of is Red from Mega Man X7, and that's not probably not the best game to be compared to.
>>342885223
I can't remember him using it on me, but I just remember it because games like to use it a lot (fake zero in X6, zero virus in network transmission, etc) and I remember hearing it was a OHKO.
It seems like people are very confused about who actually developed this but if you look at the credits you can see that Inti Creates are the ones who are credited as developers and if you watch the documentary Inafune flat out tells you that Comcept was only feeding ideas to Inti Creates who were actually developing the game. So, yeah, Mighty No. 9 was made by Inti Creates.
>>342885721
>Like, the only one I can think of is Red from Mega Man X7, and that's not probably not the best game to be compared to.
Yeah, Red is just absolute bullshit. The directions you have to HOLD THE BUTTON to be able to climb walls when he knocks you are completely arbitrary as they change with the camera angles and you'll be near to pits a whole fucking lot.
I wasn't having a good time with the game. When I reached that point, I figured I might as well stop and go play better things.
I haven't really been proven wrong ever since.
>>342881882
Well, there's Ground Man in Rockman and Forte, but that entire game is Bad Megaman Design 101
>>342843345
>Hey /v/, what went wrong. Explain how inafune is a complete sheckeler.
There's people who think Mega Man is not creatively irrelevant in the year 2016. Was he supposed to let them spend their hard-earned money on decent games, or something?
>>342884486
At least you found a match.
>>342886058
If that's 101, what's Mighty No. 9?
>>342885865
I want to know what the fuck happened to Inti Creates that their ability to make competent level design rapidly dropped from ZX onward.
>>342886653
tight budget
WHY IS THERE STUMBLING
WHO THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA
>>342843345
They remade Mega Man without knowing what made Mega Man good
>>342886653
well if inti was forced to do the game ,that means it had to be crappy or else mn9 could have dragged gunvolt down with him, why put effort in the lazy cuck conman when ur new ip needs it more?
>>342887836
Gunvolt is fucking shit too so that argument doesn't make sense.
>>342881769
He hasn't made a dogeza video yet at all.
>>342888035
I want to see him shaved bald, like that one aidoru
>>342865398
i know right?, since she is basically robo ciel form zero, is the same when i played zero the first time
>>342887954
better than mn9 still...
>>342887836
It's okay, even good developers make bombs once in a while.
This one just went boom.
>>342887670
Seriously, I thought the game had some weird input delay at first until I realized there was an actual animation for that shit.
I like how people rail on the story like it has been a high brow literature in Mega Man games. You get at least a sequel hook instead of Mega Man walking into the sunset like it's been done in gorillion other games.
>>342888328
At the end of the day you're still comparing two different piles of shit.
>>342889362
>You get at least a sequel hook
>Sequel hooks are a good thing on principle
>>342889362
There's too much god damn cut-scenes and story in MN9. The story itself is alrigth. Nothing special. MM games at least spared you much text.
MN9 is likely not to get a sequel. They can't kickstarter it, and no publisher will touch a game that has sold as poorly as MN9 has.
I want to cum inside Call D
>>342890158
I like how when you completely turn off voices and subtitles the game still bugs out and plays cutscenes normally sometimes.
At least it's better than Alia.
>>342844436
Are there any SteamSpy charts on how poorly it made yet?
>Mighty Gunvolt gets released
>Beck is the shittiest character to use in the game
This alone should tell you a lot about the final game.
>>342887670
It feels like an attempt to make the game different from Mega Man because Mega Man was all about accurate platforming but this makes it harder to do such platforming. I don't really think there's any reason for it except for make it different for the sake of making it different.
>>342890427
At least it's better than nothing.
>>342848363
Tagging doesn't really cause any problems though, the only thing that might be annoying is having to let go to fall faster.
>>342890696
Beck is also the shittiest character in his own game.
>>342890696
Not when fucking Call exists

Is this guy serious? I can't even begin to comprehend why they would make her personality as boring as they did.

Her personality was supposed to be boring since the beginning.
>>342892646
I can run MGSV at full speed with no issues, but this lags hard. It's utterly perplexing.
