Mighty No. 9 - Keiji Inafune's Next Mega Man

That dash seriously looks great. I gave a lot of shit to the initial look of the game after I found out it wasnt going to be 2d but seeing after seeing it motion the look and feel of the game has grown on me.

Game play wise it looks fine, but the art is a little too chunky for my liking almost early PS1/N64 polygon-eaque wish it was more sleek and sharp like the MMX series and the lighting makes everything look more dull and flat than it is.

HAP HAP HOOOO HAP HOOOO HAP HAP HAP HAP HOOOO HOOOO HAP HAP HAP HAP HAP

God that is fucking annoying. I can tell I’m going to mute the voices already.

Surprised no one is mentioning this:

INAFUNE STRIKES AGAIN!!

Looks like Inafune

I’m actually somewhat annoyed at the dash being used as a finisher for enemies. Just ass loads of dashing for no real reason at all. Uneconomical use of a movement option imo.

There hasn’t been a ton of footage of the other weapons Beck has so I wonder if those can take out enemies without requiring a dash.

Gameplay looks fun nothing new but fun

Where’s that transforming mechanic they wanted to implement?

Brought this up earlier. No one answered I don’t think.

+agree. Is there only one way to kill enemies? That’s lame.

I’m not sure I understand the complaints about dashing through weakened enemies. It’s literally the same concept as killing an enemy with Zandatsu in metal gear solid but not more free-flowing due to the speed of dash/absorption and combo system.

How is cutting a guy in half and ripping out his Robo heart the same as using a movement option to attack enemies? The only thing they have in common is that the enemy must be in a weakened state to get the desired effect. In MGR you use an attack option to kill, in M#9 you use a movement option to kill…One of these things is not like the other.

Do they not die unless you dash through them? I thought it was just a bonus thing for points/movement.

Testify brother.

I feel bad for MM fans honestly, hopefully IGA treats everyone better with Bloodstained.

Pretty sure in the videos enemies re spawn or whatever if you don’t dash through them in their weakened state in time.

You’re gonna be dashing all the fucking time anyway.
To me it seems like it would feel very satisfying with the combo system.
I think it will be a fun MINOR twist

Man, the text and the Japanese voices were saying completely different things at times. Not just like, stylistic differences either but completely different lines of thought lol

You know, I’ve never seen Beck use any special weapons from the other Mighty Numbers in any of the promotional videos. Is that even a mechanic anymore?

Of course. This is a (not) Mega Man game, after all.

Well it’s more like he gains an entire transformation, not just a weapon. I think they’re just not showing them too much too keep how they actually work a surprise or something

He’s got that fake-ass Zero transformation for sure…
