Was this guy only a bad guy in the us cartoon? Did he have free will and left Dr. Light? If he's so powerful, why did he leave saving the world to mega man?

>>261865718
He evil in megaman 3 then becomes a recurrent character that helps megaman throughout the classic series

>>261865718
Proto man didn't go save the world because his core was damaged or some stupid shit. Also light apparently disowned him

>>261865907
Built by wily, like zero? Or Dr. Light?

>>261866593
Dr. Light, repaired by Wily

>>261866593
Proto man was a prototype (get it) for mega man that light had abandoned for being defective

The archie comic can be hit or miss, but the Protoman moments are god tier right in the feels bro moments.

>>261865718

If I remember right, in the US cartoon he was pretty much completely built by WIly so he was evil. But in the games he's more of an anti-hero. Or just a hero that doesn't want to be in the spotlight.

His core was fucked up because he was a prototype, and because of that it gave him freewill. When Light tried to replace it, Proto thought it would take away his free will so he ran away. Eventually it fucked his body up really bad and Wily repaired him. So that's why he worked for Wily as Breakman for a couple of games.

>>261866917
Seriously, why the fuck is Dr. Light such a fucking retard. He's like a supervillain that thinks he's a hero.

So there's a shitty Protoman band, and a mediocre Mega Man band.

Now we need a good Bass band.

>>261866715

Proto was built by both of them, same as Rock, Roll, and the other first 6 Robot Masters.

>>261867156

I wouldn't mind that. But really Bass was underutilized to begin with. He never went anywhere beyond "Bad Mega Man who occasionally tells Wily to eat shit"

He was basically just Break Man, but for future games so Protoman could be a hero.

It was actually really good. They kept everyone in check, the plot was 'okay' as far as crossovers go, and Bass and Mega Man pretty much stole the show.

>>261868049
it was actually really awesome. Wily and Eggman had a great chemistry with each other, surprisingly.

When does Capcom announce that thing? TGS?

the best part of the games is that megaman painstakingly saves the world 10 times only for a timeskip to ruin the world anyway, then it happens again to X

Sometimes I want to see just how things went to shit so badly, and what happened to Mega Man and all the others.

But then I think about it and decide it's best to just not ever see it.

>>261871283
Except that if he didn't build robots then Cain wouldn't have made the Maverick fucks who eventually killed at least 3/4ths of the human population and lead to Copy X fucking shit up even further.

>>261871627

Cain was an archeologist, not a robotist or a programmer. Guy had no fucking idea what he was doing.

It'd be like a pretty smart carpenter deciding to try to make paintings based on the works of Michelangelo.

>>261871991
so you're saying he was a retard that only managed to doom humanity because he found a robot made by Light

which is my entire point

>>261871930

>if he hadn't have made X then someone else wouldn't have tried to copy it and failed horribly!

How is that Light's fault again? If anything, his work through X is what saved the world countless times again.

>>261872143
If he didn't continue research on X then Reploids wouldn't have gone out of control with their shitty free will.

Reploids were inherently flawed copies of X, yeah, but you can still lay the blame at Wily's feet for all that shit because the Zero virus that he created was the start of the Mavericks.

Hell, he even made Sigma another body in one of the middle Xs but that was never touched on again.

>>261872595
Light was the one who invented the free-will bullshit chip, anon. All for X.

How exactly is this in any way different? Mechanaloids and Robot Masters are susceptible to the Maverick Virus and its precursors.

Tell me right now how anything would have turned out better if the Maverick Virus had an outbreak and there were simply more prevelant than in MM10, and no one had already figured out a cure?

>>261873002
Exactly. And if X never got the chip then Cain probably wouldn't have come as close to making those shitty flawed copies.

>>261873010
Original Mega Man and Protoman had 'free will' to the degree that they had to follow whatever their programming told them to do and anything that didn't step over those bounds.

X has entire free will. Meaning he can tell any human to fuck off if he wanted.

>>261873062
For Light, yeah. But if he hadn't had researched and developed the chip then none of that shit would have gone down.

>>261873010

Blues does, yeah. But it's never clarified that Rock does.

>>261873185
Yeah, The Megas have some serious talent.

>The Megas on vocals and instruments
>The Protomen on lyrics and mastering
>it'll never happen

>>261873010
No they don't.

Source; DOCTOR FUCKING LIGHT

They have wills, they make their own choices. But only within the confines of their program. Even if that is suitably humanlike; it's not free will.

>>261873058

Then Da Vinci is the one I meant. It's late and I'm not good with my mutant turtles/renaissance artists

>>261873648
I could swear Blues was the beta version of Rock, and Blues had a free will chip (broken but apparently Light was going to fix it), so why wouldn't Rock have one?

I must say, you have good taste posting my favorite MM8 robot master. In the end, he can't compare to that, which is Shadowman.

That means we don't have free will since we have metal censors against suicide and instincts and shit

>>261873010
They can make decisions on their own, but their moral compasses are pre-programmed. Rock will always choose to be the hero, how he saves the day is up to him, but he has no choice but to decide to save it.

>>261873908
>free will chip
No. His reactor was defective. Protoman THOUGHT Light was going to reprogram him and decided to run away.

>>261873579

Not how responsibility works.

>>261873579
>>Exactly. And if X never got the chip then Cain probably wouldn't have come as close to making those shitty flawed copies.

That's on Cain because he fucked up on reverse-engineering X. The fault wouldn't lie with Light.

>>261873845

No, Protoman does have free will due to his defective reactor. Even after Wily fixed it, he let him keep it for whatever reason. Rock was built without any defects, so he has no free will.

I think Sakurai is the first developer to show that in a neat way. Mega Man's deadpan expression in Smash really drives home that he's a robot, and not an feeling and thinking machine like X.

>>261874587
Quantum processes are "random", anon, which would mean the universe isn't deterministic.

It hasn't been PROVED to be non-deterministic, maybe it's just unpredictable, but it's literally unprovable so there's no easy answer to Free Will vs Determinism.

And it matters a lot, or people wouldn't care so much.

>>261874093
But people can overcome that programming though.

The quantum world may be random, but that only serves to provide inputs for the deterministic larger level physics, the universe is still governed by rules, the only randomness in the universe is what exactly the variables are.

Because Light was a hopeless optimist, and he genuinely thought robots could coexist with humans and make the world a better place.

It might be irresponsible, yeah, but I can't fault him for hoping for the best in spite of what he's seen. If anything the fact it always fucks up makes me think the world of Mega Man is pretty dark.

>>261875217
Only because the censors get broken, which is what the treatment to depression is: fixing those censors.

Larger level physics are literally quantum physics at a larger scale, anon. The only reason is that the probabilities quickly become irrelevant (but don't disappear) as the scale grows and the scenarios get more complex.

There's free will if consciousness has ANY quantum element that "we" have power over. But that would basically mean we have a soul.

>>261875624

Again, how is that Light's fault? Cain dug up X. Cain tried to reverse-engineering him without getting proper experts. Even then, wasn't it implied that no one in that age was on Light's level?

Light was naive, but you can't blame him for the Reploids. That's entirely on Cain. You're basically saying that the guy who invented the wheel is to blame for the douchebag later on who fucks up remaking the wheel and turns it into a boulder that crushes a village.

Except Light's creation, X, never went wild. As a matter of fact X was a devout pacifist. It was Cain who made shoddy copies of X but didn't do any testing on them whatsoever. That's not Light's fault.

>>261874752
Protoman left Dr Light's lab because he was scared and wanted to preserve his own wellbeing. Despite it leading to his powerdown. Protoman joined Dr Wily's asteroid assault team because it suited his interests to meet his younger brother he'd only just heard of in combat.
He decided to help aforementioned younger brother because it suited his interests. Kinship or nepotism couldn't have been a directive before Light considered making other Robot Masters.
Yet Protoman resisted an offer to be repaired by Dr Light some time later, because he felt obligated to his suffering, then later acquiesced at the behest of Mega Man.
That despite the fact both of them once fought each other just for the sake of the fight.

Mega Man isn't an automaton either. He does shit because he wants to. He lives at Dr Light's house with him and Roll because he wants to, despite being given a chance to travel space and spread justice the universe over.
Mega Man requested to change his occupation from "Lab assistant" to "Super Fighting Robot".
He actually does call Wily out on his bullshit fake apologies on repeat occasions.
However has disobeyed orders. Going after Dr Wily despite Dr Light begging him not to, and yet willfully walked into a trap with a fake Light, aware of it, just because he was unwilling to take the risk it might not be.

Yet NONE OF THAT is proof of free will. That's just proof they're both operationally sentient. Which just means they can react to stimulation.

>>261877296

I can agree with you on all that, but isn't Blues having free will due to his defective reactor basically the foundation for his entire character?

>>261876623
>>261876634
>>261877249
Let me hold your hands as I walk you through this.
Look both ways, you stupid shits.

Light made the free will chip for X.
Light did this KNOWING that robots have a long history of being complete fuckups, especially if THEY AREN'T MADE BY HIM.
Despite knowing full and well people will most likely attempt to copy this technology (since everyone does it when something new comes out), he does it anyway because 'muh son'.
Mr. Fuckup #2 comes along and makes piss-poor copies of X's chip.
They both are massive fuckups and have ruined the future. Light moreso than Cain because he has dealt with the shit over and over and over and over again, knowing very well the consequences of his actions while Cain was just hopeful that he knew more than an irrelevant idiot.
This is all Light's fault, because if he had not even invented the chip, Cain wouldn't have gotten the inspiration to make his own and the Mavericks wouldn't have gone wild.

Good intentions or not, this all stems from Dr. Light making it.

>>261877754
>Despite knowing full and well people will most likely attempt to copy this technology

Stop pulling shot out of your ass.

>>261867107
even then, Wily was not able to fix it since the problem turned out not to be the reactor that was faulty but his energy system in general. so now he has an unstable nuclear reactor.

YOU HAD ONE JOB WILY

>>261877754
Forgive me, my X lore is rusty, but weren't the reploids perfectly fine? It was Wily's virus that F*cked them up wasn't it? (At least until X8, but that was by the reploid's own volitions)

>>261877709
No. His broken reactor didn't give him free will or otherwise change what he was capable of.

What it was however, was the germ from which he made his decision to vacate his home, and get into every other circumstance. The whole circumstance being supposedly solved simply by giving Rock a sister.

>>261878107
No, if you watch day of ? you'll see that reploids went nuts way before that. This was the reason why the maverick hunters were founded in the first place.

>>261878013
This is common sense.
Whenever someone invents a new machine or tool, someone will copy its design and modify it to their own ends.

>>261878107
It was the free will chip that ensured they could kill people freely and step out of bounds of what their programming would have restricted otherwise.

>>261877754
Yeah and we should blame Henry Ford for all modern day car accidents since he created the Model T Ford knowing people will fuck it up eventually

>>261877754

I'll accept that Light is naive, but you're just moving the burden of guilt. Light had no idea that there would not be anyone in the future capable of doing jack with his technology. He had no idea that the guy who would find X would be some fucking archeologist. And there'd be no way for him to know that someone unqualified would try to copy his technology.

Light did the work to make sure X wouldn't fuck up. If you build a computer, and then someone else tries to build a computer based off of yours and gets electrocuted because they fucked it up, is that your fault? No. It's their fault because they fucked it up. Light's responsibility for the Mavericks begins and ends with X. Everything else is on Cain and Wily.

>>261878076

If I remember right, Wily is kind of shit with robotic hardware. He was the programming genius. So it's believable that if Protoman's entire energy system is fucked, he wouldn't be able to fix it. All he really did was slap a bandaid on it. It was still enough to earn Proto's gratitude and get him to work for him as Breakman.

>>261876219

>>261879005
>Using le wise black man maymay

>>261878947
Other way around. Light is godlike with software while Wily is excellent with hardware. Which is why Light was able to create his Super Fighting Robot long before Wily was able to repeat Light's success.

>>261878107

What >>261878385 was saying. Sigma was the leader of the maverick hunters, but then they ran into Zero. Zero was the one who infected Sigma, who I think was the first reploid Cain built modeled on X. The virus changed in Sigma to become the Sigma Virus, which is a different and more powerful virus than the Maverick.

Bob and George explains this fairly well.

>>261878947
Major headcanon here:
Protoman was thankful, but quickly realized Wily was insane and vowed to stop him while pretending to aid him. He was still bitter toward light and chose not to tell him, but he was curious as to the potential of his "replacement" and so tested his skills when he could, it helped that these fights helped him sell his cover.

>>261878967

Hard Man wasn't doing shit either. He was retired. Really all of the robot masters in HR-R didn't ask for it.

I think it made it more interesting. Mega man talks about fighitng for peace and justice, and his conflicted feeling. But when you see him from the point of view of the RMs, here's a relentless murder machine. Hell, Quickman just calls him Death.

>>261876634
As an aside; I'd like to mention the Wheel is much much more recent a development than you seem to think it is.

The wheel is newer than writing, distillation, shipwrighting, permanent housing, coins, monotheism, the pyramids, crop rotation, bronze, swords, antibiotics, and the twogirlthreeway.

>>261879558
Except cr(l)ashman, he is on Megaman's side.

Jesus FUCK do you even hear yourself? Ok fine then. Henry Ford is the greatest villain in the world since his invention led to untold deaths and opened the floodgates for several tragedies and accidents. The Wright Brothers are also indirectly responsible for 9/11. The first men who began the bronze age is also indirectly responsible for the murder of everyone killed with a metallic thing. Except because that's fucking stupid. Light's invention worked. Light's invention worked well. It did EXACTLY what it was intended to do. Dr. Cain attempted to repeat Light's success and fucked up. So Dr. Cain is the one who fucked up and can be blamed for it. Stop being stupid.

>>261879558
Yeah, Quick and the Blue was the one that really got me into the Megas in the first place, and it was pretty fucking heavy.

But in HR:R atleast Hardman went out the way he wanted to, even had a crowd begging him not to, but Needle Man was actually better off doing Suicide by Mega and well, Shadow was all sorts of fucked up.
The only downside of that album was no Wily song, the two we got were god tier, and I would have liked to hear what they would have done with him once Gamma was destroyed.

>no good that could have come from that

That's not how Light saw it. He made X for the same reason he made Blues, Rock and Roll. He wanted to make robots that could live with humans and help them. He created X to be someone that could help the entire world move into a golden age and carry his dream far beyond a human's lifespan, if that's what he chose to do.

It's like deciding to not make the lightbulb because someone later on may make the electric chair. But we're also forgetting that X is equipped with weaponry, and the capsules throughout the games. Light was an optimist, but he wasn't a complete idiot. He had fail safes in the event something went to shit, which it did.

They really did nerf a ton of stuff from 1 though. Stronger Cannons do a lot less and seem to come later in the game.

Yeah I would have liked another Wily song too, but they decided to give more of the spotlight to Proto Man. Which I'm fine with, I'm Not The Breakman was amazing. At least they didn't make the entire damn album on Proto. Probably because Protomen already have him damn well covered.

>>261865718
He's powerful but unstable, and Mega Man is already able to beat enemies far stronger than he is. Proto Man really just wants to be left alone, but he can't help helping his little brother.

>>261879181
>Wily is excellent with hardware
That's demonstrably false. Wily has stolen Light's robots and designs repeatedly. In the case of Bass he made a complete schematic copy of Mega Man to use his upgrades. Because he specifically couldn't conceive of anything that could counteract the power adapter.

At best Wily is highly efficient at reprogramming, proficient enough at engineering to reproduce much of anything, and lucky enough to have resources to perform the former, and superpowerful power sources to reverse engineer drop in his lap.

>>261880353

I just assumed that voice was Wily's programming, telling Needle to be a killer.

With the gunman in Gemineye, I always thought it was just Mega Man. I might be wrong on that one.

Great fail safes. Armor upgrades sure are nice now that humanity is entirely fucked and X is dead.

>>261879910
Cars and sentient robots are different, believe it or not.
People who operate cars get killed, while robots who act on their own free will kill humans.
Henry Ford invented a machine based off of the carriage without the need of horses. Light created a chip that gave robots free will when they didn't need it.

Light had no good reason to create it, and he was well aware of how unstable robots and inventors with ambition were.

>>261880886

With Magnet Man, I think he was doing his own thing. Mega Man just came down on him like a ton of bricks because he was a robot built by Wily. What he had been doing, and his relationship with Roll didn't matter.

That's just what I picked up on it. Roll telling him her brother wanted him dead was her answer. So I thought that's what it was implied. She left because Rock wanted him dead, and it wasn't that he wanted him dead because he was with Roll. It's still cold as fuck

Some of the robot masters in The Megas seem to have free will, why did Rock kill Magnet Man, for example? What was the point?

>>261881264
And X did exactly that. He assisted humans at every turn. He did exactly what he was built for. Dr. Cain said "shit man I bet I could do that" but fucked it up. Dr. Light's proof of concept did work. But Dr. Cain did not put the same effort into his derivatives. You're basically ignoring Dr. Cain building a swingset but not reading the fucking manual and coming up with a bunch of "spare pieces" at the end of the project. And then when little Sally Sue breaks her arm because the thing broke you say that Light is indirectly responsible.

>>261881172
I know. I'm not saying it was a good reason for rock to kill him, but it's the reason given. (also i think he's a little protective of his sister.

>>261881538
What do you mean by memorizing? You can take your time in every MM game, though the first series punishes you by respawning enemies if you don't rush in

>>261881538
First game is pretty hard, don't get discouraged if you can't do it.

Fireman.exe can be tough. Make sure to get any aqua chips you can get (I seem to think you can buy Aquaswords at that point, but it's been forever and I don't remember)

The difficulty DROPS like a rock after Fireman.exe in Network Transmission.

I can't get past Iceman's stage. Nor can I beat Fireman.

I want to just move on to Megaman 2 but my pride won't let me. I've beaten every other robot master. Though I had to use Cutman's weapon against ElecMan. He does way too much damage to risk using the buster.

>>261881270

I'm weird. I think 1 is easier than 2. I guess it must be the last section with the Alien and all the Wilys. That gives me trouble, whereas I can speedrun MM1.

I'd say he should go in chronological order. But he can play 2-1-3 just as well and then go on with the rest.

>>261880809

Holy shit is this true? Source please, I must know. That song sounds so upbeat though, that's some Protomen-tier dark twist. Holy shit.

I haven't played MMZ but from what I've heard it seems like a speedrunner's dream game. In which case it relies on pseudomemorizing the map, making a route and practicing

>>261882245
I apologize but that's just my take on it. There's no actual statement saying he had his brains blown out, but from the way he's giving his speech and then at the end his lyrics cut off, the music fizzles out into static, and suddenly you hear some generic TV sounds and music it makes it seem like he hijacked a TV signal trying to get his words out like some robotic Max Headroom but Megaman was having none of that shit.

>>261881773

I think Mega Man came after them all for just reason: They were built by Wily. So he just assumed they were out to get him and destroy humans. After two games he stopped asking questions and just started shooting everything.

Ice Man and Fire Man do pretty much require rote memorization. But nothing can beat the relief when you past those areas. And I think both RMs are easy.

Hell, Ice Man is always the first guy I go for.

>>261882752
But all the Mega Man songs in The Megas paint him as a good guy that really doesn't want to do this shit

man this shit is dark

>>261882752
I thought he went in guns blazing and after the first two incidents, he began to question what he was doing.

>>261881264
Reploids were given free will, and some were criminals. This was inevitable without Light's extreme testing and care put into their designs. Cain's crappy copying made them susceptible to viruses and glitchy.

But it didn't ruin the world. Wily's Maverick Virus was the biggest obstacle to Reploids and humans living in peace, and despite several apocalyptic plans caused by him infecting Sigma, his influence still eventually ended. From Mega Man Zero on, all the problems are caused by Weil, and by ZX Reploids and Humans have actually become BETTER than the world Light had imagined. Light didn't do much villainous at all.

>>261882672

But Elecman was rallying against robot slavery/human cruelty, Megaman wouldn't have killed him because he wasn't even opposing him. I always assumed it was "I'll send the spark of war along the wire", meaning that the end was actually Elecman frying the circuits of whatever was recording it and the sounds after were just the signal fizzling out.

>>261882820

Unless you're trying to tell me that they were rallying against Megaman and for Wily, which doesn't make any sense given the arguments presented.

That's the thing, Wily isn't exactly sly, he's just dogmatic in his belief that this really IS the answer to the problems the world faces now, getting run by Robots.
So Wily probably instilled a almost exact copy of his beliefs just to proslytize and see if he can drum up support, but by the time of Gamma Unchained it seems like he didn't get anything.

This Wily is really sad compared to Protos.

Protomen's megaman/protoman fucked up by not planning any of their shit and just charging into the streets shooting shit up, then expecting hapless bystanders who have already grown up living in fear to throw their lives away.

It's a little more understandable during the standoff but otherwise if you're going to get groceries and some killer robot starts blowing up all the security bots nearby, you aren't gonna give your life to help it especially when it starts losing.

The point of The Protomen is that Bystander's Apathy is bad and you should help heroes when you can.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bystander_effect

It's not even "hurr durr turn into a hero and go fight people" the opera is a lesson for the bystanders, not the heroes.

>>261884036
THIS IS NOT MY HOME

Reminder that Protomen Act II is still several leagues above History Repeating Red and The Megas aren't doing any MM3 or 4 or up songs.

It seems so strange. So very odd. A hero's father could be so very flawed.

>>261885856
Why does Raul still speak like shit? I can't understand him 90% of the time, it sucks. I still don't know most of the lyrics. The Megas is extremely easy to understand though.

This is the end my friend
This is the end but I’ll be back again
When the time is right…
Dr. Light.

I return to help burn
Your people’s future down
You destroyed my children
You forced my retribution

The battle is ending
True war is just beginning!

I’ll learn from this disaster
I’ll build eight robot masters…

Nigga, you are outside your mind. The Hounds and the Joe songs are better, but overall I think HR-R is the better album.

They lost me
Forgot me
Made you from parts of me
If you're the one, my father's son,
Then what am I supposed to be?
What am I supposed to be?

Eh it's a little clearer but I find it a lot duller, I can remember a lot of lyrics from protomen stuff but megas just sort of melts together. Into noise. Someone recommended history repeating but I wasn't at all impressed and kinda dropped them after that.

>winning matches with gutsman/hardman

>>261880887
He has stolen, true, but he also built some of the strongest robot masters from spare parts on his own and even innovated the world of robotics through his spite.

Bubbleman, Flashman, Quickman, Metalman, Woodman, and Heatman were all huge steps in robotics technology. Hell Flashman is the ONLY robot master in canon that could completely stop time.

>>261886517

>We Are The Dead
>not immediately writting it off as 198X

Too be honest though I haven't read Les Mis or watched any adaptations of it.

>>261886475
History Repeating: Red is the closest any Megas album comes to legitimate songwriting instead of elementary school anthemic CAN YOU FEEEEEEEL THA FIIIURGGGGH crap.

It's still only pretty good at best. Haystack Principle and I'm Not the Breakman are far and away the best songs. Another Machine/Fly On a Dog remix is passable, as is GemInEye.

>>261885927
Breaking Out = 9
The Fall = 8
Light Up The Night = 10
Keep Quiet = 10
How The World Fell Under Darkness = shit
Give Us The Rope = shit

The Hounds = 9
The Good Doctor = 6

I think it was pretty fun if short. The way you unlocked stuff by fixing up broken Mavericks and sending them to find stuff for you was pretty cool I though.

Only thing the game really needs is a forced random mode.

I am fucking sick of faggots maining a particular character.

It wouldn't be as much of a problem if there was a larger player base. I can't sell mm8bbad hard enough but not enough people bite.

The only megaman game I played growing up was xtreme 2 for gamebabby, it was alright.

Recently played 3,4,x for the first time and they were alright. I enjoyed them but my tits weren't set ablaze either. I recently downloaded battle network but I haven't started on that. Any recommendations or warnings before I dedicate time to it?

>>261886903
I'm on the fence about that.
On the one hand it ensures there's variety.
On the other, wins are almost determined to be random at that point since it isn't too balanced.

I'll at least swap between 3 mains that play differently.
>Gravity Man
>Burst Man

>>261886685
Didn't he do all that after stealing technology from the future with the Chrono Skimmer?

>>261887093
But they were, and I love instrumental music

>>261887215
BN1 is aged as shit but the combat is so refreshingly original that I still got through it.

Be careful with burning out by jumping right into 2. Give it some time between games.

>>261886960
They're just meh to me. I can't stomach that cheesy anthemic crap, especially not when the competition is an operatic 3-part story with plotlines and some small degree of subtlety and nuance to it. Even if all that nuance is in the liner notes, it's a lot more than Megas ever had.

And really what little nuance Megas had only exists because Protoman's collective fan headcanon makes him a more nuanced character. So they've literally only got Needleman. Shadowman was also a little interesting, but really nothing the Megas do holds my attention.

>>261886745
It's more accurate than you'd think actually.

Check out this thread
>http://www.protomen.com/comm/viewtopic.php?t=2320&sid=a207012bb684971d8ca4f4bb36d1c6b0

Then read these lyrics
>The people have not stirred
>We are abandoned by those who still live in fear.
>The people have not heard.
>Yet we will will not abandon those who cannot hear.

A big part of the revolution in the Les Mis musical is how the people won't do shit and almost everybody is who joins the revolution fucking dies.

TIME TO VOTE YOU PEOPLE OF VARIOUS TASTES ON MEGAMAN THEMED MUSIC.

It can be tricky to get the hang of if you're used to other megaman games, but it's worth playing, just don't forget to save often untill you know what you're doing.

>>261887265

GB games are non canon. He did it all himself.

>>261887215
You can get some pretty bitching Chips by fighting upgraded Mettaurs in the doghouse outside your house. If you don't get any, you probably need to raise your end of fight battle ranking.

You'll know what this means when you start playing the game. BN1 is the easiest out of all the games (your health regenerates fully when you finish a battle whereas they drop that for 2 and the rest of the games) so you'll be fine.

Inafune is a hack who has been riding off the glamor of being put on an art team after a mascot was already designed for several decades. Nothing he says about anything is valid, even the Zero series since Inti Creates did all the work on that.
