>This sucks so much. It feels awful to play, MM is so slow and the animation makes him look like he's running in place, jumping is super floaty too.

You are correct. For many people this was their first MM since it was on a new console, and it made a very sour impression on people.

The longtime producer for the series, Tokuro Fujiwara, left Capcom and Keiji Inafune was promoted to head Mega Man producer. His first order of business was to hire his artist friend Hayato Kaji to direct Mega Man 8. You can tell he's an artist and is clueless on gameplay since so much of the focus is on the visuals and animation, but the gameplay is very poor. And it's telling that Kaiji never once again directed a game again and stuck to art.

Longtime Mega Man fans will know Kaji as the designer of X.

That classic series should have ended when X released.

Didn't know that, makes sense.

>>12616581
He still works at Capcom. GOod for him. Just keep him away from hands on directing.

Pretty sure that was intended with MM6's ending that seems to finally put Wily in jail for good and tease that the story would continue with a new direction, but Capcom later went back on the decision and made MM7.

good game and difficult to boot, dont care what schizo op and his samefag posts say tbqh

Hating on this game was pretty popular for a while, but I actually really enjoyed the gameplay. It's pretty tough at times, which is why I think it gets a lot of hate. The gimmick sections can be a bit annoying, but they're not that hard when you figure them out. The shmup parts are actually kind of a nice departure. The music and vibe of the game are awesome. I actually fkn love this game.

MM7 can suxdix though

MM7 got bad reviews for being too "safe", especially after X, so Capcom though they needed to force innovations, hence all the half baked gimmicks. Terrible idea, journalists were cunts who never liked Mega Man in the first place and shouldn't have been listened too. Well at least we got &Bass out of this game.

>>12617291
No. 7 is shit.

>>12617381
Can you even read? Whether MM7 is bad or not, it certainly isn't because it didn't "innovate" enough, retard.

I've always been saying this about the animations but since a YouTuber made a video about it now I look like someone who gets his opinions from YouTube if I mention it, so I don't say it anymore. Fuck youtubers, it's also a lose even if you don't watch or engage with them.

Why was this random-ass ball in the game?

>>12618159
Not sure why this wasn't a boss weapon. At least they fixed it with the Rebound Striker in MM10.

>>12618159
between this and legends it seems like they wanted kicking to become part of mega man's base kit? I dunno.
maybe the devs just really liked mega man soccer
