Is the mega man franchise boring?

[Jvsouza11]

there is a question growing in my mind that the mega man franchise after i end 3 and going to 4, 5, 6 and so on it will become less fun and more boring because im doing the same thing over and over again, but with new toys at my disposal, is the mega man franchise in my pont of view become boring or not?

I doubt it. The games stay consistently good, and you'll probably continue to have fun with them at least up until the Wily Stages in Megaman 8.

 

[bigstinkie]

the mega man series is generally pretty formulaic, but if you enjoy the core gameplay you probably will not get too bored too quickly
but i would not force yourself to keep playing the series if you have already played the first few and are growing tired of it
take a lil breakzors and all thatzors

I marathon'd them all back to back awhile ago and it stayed pretty entertaining for me throughout, but you don't have to play them all at back to back

What? No lol.
No such thing as a boring Mega Man game. Though your problem might be the fact that the latter half of Mega Man 3 is underwhelming. The Doc Robot stages suuuuuuuuuck. You’ll probably have a lot more interest in 4 onwards because they introduce some wild ideas, it’s great

Maybe even take a detour to Wily Wars and Mega Man World (or the Mega Man GameBoy games worldwide)

all of them, back to back? how long did it take you, if you remember?

I've played them all off and on some before but had only ever beaten 2, so I knew more or less what I was doing. It was like a nightly thing on my switch before bed. I'd say about a week. Save states were used pretty liberally too.

When the 3DS Legacy Collection dropped, I think the order I beat them was 4, 6, 5, 1, 3, 2

Don’t know why it was that order, 2015 was a long time ago when I was 14 ten years ago

When I was 14 it was 2002.

Really? You're asking this question right in front of my salad?

 

[Mopeybloke]

It's boring to me, and frustrating. They also killed Legends, the only one I cared about.

yes, in front of your salad.

i have seen this gif posted before online - in the original movie, this fellow is in a home, but in this gif, he seems to be in another location
do you know where the man in this gif is?
if you do not, that is ok too. i will post megaman x4 music to soothe the spirit

It's getting quite same-y, but not boring.

 

[Doc X]

I disagree; it's hard to get bored of it when there are well over 100 games in its catalog alone. Mega Man has two timelines and seven distinct series, each with their unique gameplay nuances and peculiarities, characters, plots, soundtracks, etc. It's a sheer variety rivaled by only a few other VG franchises.

Rockman games are most of them excellent. They defy the rule of "if you have a saga of games doing the same over and over it gets boring".

I don't care if people go for my jugular, but my favourite is Rockman X5. My second favourite is because of nostalgia, and it's Rockman 2. I've never got bored playing any of them :)

Can't go wrong with the X series either. Megaman is just good times.

Don't worry, I won't go for your jugular.

I'll go for your kneecaps.

It's just challenging.

 

[Jeff]

The NES games, X, and Legends I adore. They're challenging, yes. but I just like to blast stuff. And also, the team behind the Mega Man games worked on the Disney games. So in my opinion, the franchise is not boring

I'm going to jump in and recommend the Battle Network series. The first entry is a little rough around the edges (play Operate Shooting Star instead) but after that it quickly comes into its own as a very unique type of game. There's not much else like it.

 

[bigstinkie]

the battle network series is such massive swag
the x series and battle network series are my favourites among the mega men
