Mega Man X3 is about three times harder than X1. Good game, but

>>2936807
X3 and X2 I feel are on par with the NES series in difficulty. X is just unusual for a Mega Man game because of how easy it is. For many people, it was the first Mega Man they ever beat.

Mega Man 2 is the only one near as easy, and it's still harder than X.

>>2936835
I'm going to disagree here because a) I don't think NES MM is hard and b) MMX2 is way, way easier than MMX.

Seconding this.

X2 is by far the easiest based on the design of the levels and tools you're given.

X1 is easy, but the final Sigma gauntlet is hard enough that you have to actually do well throughout.

X3 you just take a shitload of damage from enemies and theres a lot of one hit kills.

Mega Man X: 9/10
Mega Man X2: 10/10
Mega Man X3: 8/10

>>2936842
I can understand 2, 3, and 6, but 1, 4, and 5 aren't hard? Hell, many people still consider Mega Man 1 to be the hardest Mega Man.
>MMX2 is way, way easier than MMX.
Maybe endgame when you are fully powered, but can you honestly say any of the robot masters in X were the least bit dangerous outside of Launch Octopus?

>>2936807
>X3 is hard
>any of the X games are hard

the fuck are you smoking.

in fact, one of the things that makes the X games easier than the classic MM games is that it's possible to stunlock the bosses with their weaknesses, instead of just doing extra damage.

>>2936807
I think X2 is the hardest game, by far.

What was the point of the different ride armors

So half assed

The point was to make my nine year old self really confused.

>>2936864
I agree with this except for X3.

I'd remove a point due to it's atrocious soundtrack.

>>2937336
They're fun

>>2937872
actually, they're not

>>2937336
They were collectibles that allowed you to get other collectibles, which is ok. Get water armor -> take it into water stage -> get heart container is good design in my book. The problem was stages where you could summon armor when it doesn't make a difference, making it feel pointless, and the kangaroo/flying armor which had no real point either.

Maybe if you played the Playstation version. I might say X3's soundtrack was hit-or-miss, but "atrocious" is being hilariously hyperbolic.

mmm no it's pretty accurate.
