Wow I expected every single poster in this thread to get hyped or something, instead the game got a 50/50 reception around here so far

I'm personally freaking hyped about the game after looking at the staff. Freaking inti creates is behind this and they made the Megaman Zero series and I'll love them forever for that. Best MM franchise in my opinion. Besides I'd rather have this at this point than a new megaman game, this game just can't go wrong, not with such dream team.

I also like how the japanese devs are finally paying more attention to western methods of getting funds like kickstarter (And indie humble bundle being involved in the key sharing process) and having the PC as their main release (Which avoids shit ports).

BTW the game's confirmed to have 3D graphics so far (Will be a "2.5D" game so no 3D movement). I think this is the point where we'll see how serious megaman fans are about wanting more MM games. if this game doesn't get funded then Capcom is totally right about ignoring the megaman franchise.

Hey, you buy a game that's the same game every year but with different textures and two more scripted events, we may as well buy a megaman that's not megaman at all

It's going to play like Classic Megaman just like all of the other Megaman clones out there, isn't it?


PASS.

lol, you might as well pass on all the videogame sequels being released since forever.

For example, his limbs might become giant magnets, enabling him to walk up walls or rip away enemy shields... Or maybe extendible spring-loaded hands would allow him to activate far-away switches or work as a grappling hook... Or he could have a tank-like body, easily crossing over spikes and pushing objects around the levels... These are just a few possibilities we’re considering (the game is still in the design phase), but you get the idea!

And it’s not only killing bosses that gets Beck new powers. Taking out other enemies with a certain weapon, or hitting them in their weak spot, can expose one of three types of “xel” (pronounced “cell”) energy Beck can sap (if he’s quick enough), store, and unleash later via his own Mighty Skills! Give yourself a double-jump and speed boost for a limited time, unleash a concentrated flurry of powerful punches directly ahead, or set off a blast that hurts everything on the screen!

I'd like to know what, according to your definition, the difference is between Classic and X style or even Zero style, and what in this project description let you know it wouldn't have those differences.

I meant the fans with that who want new MegaMan games, not Keiji

Yes, it's completely thanks to our perseverance and nothing else that we finally get what we want. It's not because the guy who created the games we love happens to think the same and has actually decided to go with it. It's only because he heard us, without us he wouldn't have done anything. Hell, without us, he would be nothing. We the people decide what these guys do for us to buy.
He's doing it because he has the balls to do what he loves, and we're lucky enough that it happens to be also what we want. You wouldn't say that if it was a shitty project that the maker still wanted to carry through and keep making (he'd still have money thrown at him so don't say his kickstarter would fail).
