4 MILLION DOLLARS

Are you gay or something?

This is a joke, right?

...

...

...

That fucking waterhose joke is straight out of Inspector Gadget, what the fuck.
I remember almost all of these jokes being in either the show or the godawful movie.

Where do you think you are?

So what did they spend the 4 mil on?
Because it sure as shit doesn't look like it was spent on any aspect of the game.

...

The game doesn't even look that bad. It looks like one of those lesser talked about Mega Man games that aren't anyone's favourite, but aren't the worst either.
Maybe that's the worst thing about this game. It's not even dramatically terrible. It's just kind of nothing.

...

People got caught up in the whole "spiritual successor to Mega Man" tagline.

I don't understand why though. Nobody wanted a spiritual successor to Mega Man with NOT!Mega Man. They wanted a new Mega Man game.

Part of the problem I've noticed with a lot of things is that people tend to attribute the success of a franchise to a single individual who happens to be the head of a certain, albeit important department.

Same thing happened with that Legend of Korra show. People thought it was enough to have the "creators" of the original concept, but neglected everyone else who worked on the original product and then it turned out that the creators were hacks by themselves.

...

They wanted a new Megaman game and after MML3 was cancelled, they figured Capcom wasn't gonna deliver so when Inafune said "Hey I'm gonna make my own 'Megaman' game" people bought in to it.

The concept art looked good. Everyone figured it'd be the Megaman game we all wanted. Then they fucked it all up.

Probably bonuses for themselves

The game looks okay, but with 4 million they could have made a game that didn't look like a 8 dollar Steam indie title

Heck, for less than a million they could have made a more decent sprite based game for the 3DS

Not to mention it's in very active development since he updates consistently on facebook and youtube, the guy working on it has a complete engine that looks pretty fucking accurate to the SNES games, has two different armors for water and fire for X complete and an armor-mixup system even more elaborate than X8's (up to and including mixing and matching any part of those two armors together for unique combination effects rather than just picking which armor pieces you wanted and only getting unique stuff for complete armor sets), an easter-egg Ultimate Armor and even two armors for Zero. It's probably done in everything but polish, level designs and boss AI at this point.

Corrupted will probably be hands-down the best Mega Man X fangame, maybe even one of the best Mega Man X games period, when it releases.

Eh, the game looks like it could be fun, but what bothers me is that people payed 4 million dollars collectively to support it just to get indie game quality.

Had they just went ahead and made a Playstation Network or Nintendo e-Shop title, the game might have looked better graphically and at least it's derivative gameplay could be more easily forgiven and could be regarded as on par with something like Mighty Switch Force or Shantae.

Is this crap out yet?

...

Jesus Christ so much fucking cringe.

...

Think about it, not only could a fan-made one man developed game be a better Mega Man Successor than M9, but the hype behind M9 and potential disappointment might lead Capcom to make a new Megaman game that totally destroys it in terms of sales.

...

Taking this data into account, I calculate that 50,000-75,000 USD were spent in developing the game. The rest was clearly spent in liquor and strippers.

FOUR MILLION DORRARS!

Might also be worth perhaps putting Dragon's Crown on that, just to show what even a $1,000,000 in development budget can potentially get you. Just saying since, while what's there certainly looks good visually despite being a low budget, it's a pretty big jump from those to mighty number 2's budget.

How does one project get embezzled that hard?

Where were you when Capcom became the heroes we deserve?

sounds like an indie hero. There are some super-talented people and small groups that absolutely blow the fuck out bigger corporations and e-celebrities, but they're too busy making good games to whore themselves out for attention.

And Shovel Knight was $328,682.

Mighty Switch Force was less than that too wasn't it? That series pulls off an old school Mega Man look pretty well

Yep.
It's obvious that almost none of the budget was used for the actual game and that shady shit besides Dina… is going on with MN9.

this blunder will go down in history

How much was Yooka-Laylee's budget?
Wouldn't be surprised if it was around the same budget as MN9 but it still looks much better and more complex.

I really want to believe Inafune got conned himself in all this.

Maybe by his split personality

Nah, Inafune ia the master conman himself.
I have long standing beef with him since he's the one that killed the DMC franchise by "westernising" it with DmC.

Anything he touches turns to shit.

They got what they deserved.

Its Mega Man

I can't wait for the damage control when it releases.

reminder

Didn't Inafune work on Soul Sacrifice to some degree? I seem to recall hearing that was pretty damn good, but I suppose he didn't get complete control of it or something (kind of the way Sakamoto worked on Super Metroid yet was in charge of the abortion that was Other M).

What's with the way the numbers jump? People that wisely pulled their money out?

Oh man, wait till you see the rest of the credits if you think that's odd.

The rest of it is filled with repeating names and "UNDEFINED" popping up randomly.

So, did someone fuck up in crediting the suckers, or were people scammed at higher levels given their names multiple times?

My money is on the former.

This really isn't hard to do. To me, the Megaman X series is great in concept and gameplay, but the big problem is that not of the enemies, bosses or levels require you to actually master the gameplay and this is especially true for the PSX games where the series absolutely refused to take any steps foward. Subweapons are mostly garbage used for armor upgrades. Armor upgrades are gimmicks because X starts off with the best armor anyways. Every boss dies way too easy or has a joke of a moveset that makes it a bore(literally the only good bosses in X4 and X5 are Magma Dragoon and Volt Kraken respectively).

There just isn't anything to cash in on the great core gameplay the game has.

God, Trine is so beautiful. Shame about the third one

I'm thinking that some of that money may have gone to the animated series project

I see people praise Soul Sacrifice quite often but it really just had it's story and art style going for it. Gameplay wise it is a giant joke. It lacks a lot of things which make hunting games fun. Probably my least favorite game on the Vita next to Freedom Wars. At least God Eater is interesting.

800K for this game. Let's put 800K for extra modes,ports and shit. and put 1 million 400k for the animated series. total=3 millions
Where is the another million? Inafume's pocket.

Maybe he did the whole thing where all the money was distributed in varying portions to other Comcept projects.

They asked for £175,000 and got £2,000,000 so so the game has literally half of MN9's budget and looks 100 time better. Inafune should be fucking ashamed.

Also

That's 3 years of development versus 2 years of development. And MN9 is a 2.5D game, Yooka is full 3D. And… and… there's just so many fuckups in MN9 when you compare and contrast that holy fuck what are you even doing?

...

The only good thing that came out of MN9 was Best Call, who didn't even get used.

Is that Inajune's next trick, doing a kickstarter for Not-Legends 3?

user let's put it this way.

There are more Cute Chinese Cartoon Girls then Mega Man games, does that mean there are enough of them?

...

...

Considering how the rest of the project went, isn't that the best possible end for her at this point?

did you miss red ash or something

...

...

Where the hell did the rest of the money go? To the Yakuza?

moar?

Hot damn this looks like complete shit

Of course, but I still want to see her get her own cute little thing, instead of being forgotten entirely.

The game looks like trash but whoever's playing is garbage as well.

...

This is why people think dark souls is hard

i won't give up
megaman is dead but he'll live on inside me
i'll continue hoping for good games

...

Yooka laylee: what went right?

On top of everything else the level design is shit.

based moonman

...

...

So will this be studied and examined for years to come as a tragedy of video game history or will it simply be a mediocre game that is forgotten?

Why do all those bernie faggots look fucking ugly?

I think this says a lot about this election Sage for politics

Mental illness. That is a woman btw.

Fuck.

I noticed that too

Looks like a bad trap, horrible.

...

I would rather fuck a hon tranny before i touch a liberal woman. The irony is that most trannies are liberal so i guess i won't fuck them either.

...

Also, posting this to remind you what 4 million can do in the wrong hands.

didn't they hack it or something?

they activated the debug menu by accident while trying to select a weapon.

...

That's a lotta seconds

I really wanted to like that game but after a few hours I couldnt take the furshit anymore. A shame really because the actual game is good

...

Yeah but holy fuck is the fur shit noticeable.
Holy fuck I want to kill widget.

Wew lads, you guys really need to take a break from sucking each others dicks for a second.

also respectful sage

There's always exceptions to the rule.
On average Trump supporters look pretty american.
Lefties look like complete SJW degenerates though.

...

A euro, a mexican, and amerifat.
Trump is already uniting the country.

do you have the full playthrough?

sadly they don't seem to record their streams

That Trine number is wrong. That was just the prototype. The full budget was 850,000 Euros. Source: Gamasutra.

...

...

Maybe they'll rely on waifu bait to sell the show and have all the designs make an appearance in one of the episodes.

...

...

During the stream, when they reached the ending of the game (which was just a slideshow) I swear I saw one of the rejected Call designs as a character. I forget which one though, it was the one with the big pointy pigtails I think.

...

...

obvious samefag is obvious

Here's to (you)

yeah I remember when mighty number 9 first got announced and all I thought was "that aint Kitamura or fujiwara, who is this guy?"

Wasn't that Inafune's design?

I assumed the one that was just a Roll clone was Inafune's design, especially since it won. I'm fully convinced that poll was rigged from the beginning and was made up just to trick backers into thinking their input mattered.

I only knew him as the guy whose name is written backwards on Chuck's jacket in Dead Rising 2.

Where's the Vivan game?

...

The ghost hotel thing? It came out.

...

Who thought this was a good idea?

...

...

Glad to see they're even ripping off the worst parts of the MM games.

I WISH I WAS A GOOD SCAM ARTIST !!!! ;_;

...

maybe the porn will be good?
I'd pew pew in her ass

triggered

kek

Did you check out the comics?

Who the fuck are these people that even want MORE Mega Man?

There's a fucking million and a half different Mega Man games.

...

...

Fuck off cuck, it's shit.

...

Fucking casuals

Con Man strikes again!

Anyone got the Mighty No.9 version of this?

Considering that NEVER EVER fan game, Mega Man X: Corrupted, is proving Mega Man could be even better than it already is, I can understand why people still want more.

People thought Capcom was the reason recent Mega Man games were shit.

They… I was wrong.

Capcom does hate Mega Man.
Pic very related.

Yup, Thats why Korra fucking SUCKED. I'm amazed how many people that also like Aang's saga also liked that heresy of a show, maybe most of them were morons. So many plotholes, nonsense and bad character development. It's the equivalent of what would have happened if George Lucas managed to do Star Wars in the exact way he wanted.

the vast majority of people pretend to like things because it gives them something to talk about and spice up their pathetic lives. you know, the type of people who own entire shelves on every wall full of video games they never play.

Are we sure it's a girl robot

I mean it's annoying like a girl robot but it's important to know these things

Liking the level design on this too. When you do a thing out of love, it shows in the quality. Some guys such as this don't even need money for that.

However
ew

Wow, it's like they're trying to make nothing about this game good. It's like they're trying to make a statement to the backers what stupid children they think they are.

Honestly, how can it be so hard to find voice talent? Just go find some some fuck on Youtube fan-dubbing something and offer them quick and easy money even.

...

I know it's a fan game and all but that music needs redone, the quality sounds pretty bad. Without playing a Megaman X game it probably sounds familiar but that does make it good. -like how that one Sonic Dark Chronicles song everyone makes fun of was actually a pre-existing song. Yeah, it doesn't deserve shit on that much but still.

I've got some bad news for you, user…

...

...

...

Didn't you hear, we reclaimed pepe. He's now considered by the press to be a white supremacist meme

...

I read your post, wondered whether or not that was bullshit, managed to gather enough willpower for a google search and oh my fucking God snorting rail of coke out of Christ-chan ass' you weren't kidding. Who the fuck seriously believe that keeping so many retards on their payroll is a good idea.

Any fanboy who will cry about the game being shite deserves to be ridiculed.

...

I am greatly looking forward to all the damage control.

Dude, I'm excited to see if the Mega Man fanboys and sjws will unite to defend Inafune's honor. This game is going to be a shit storm.

I'm predicting SJWs will turn on Inafune because Call can't kill enemies in her own stage, and making the electric robot girl a bee is sexist somehow. Also the final boss is a robot girl that Beck has to save by shooting repeatedly and someone will say it's rape.

The Mega Man fans will be a mixed bag of denial, rage, and suicidal.

I wanna see how they defend the defend the final level and boss. Its literally a hallways with some rooms and enemies.

...

...

Its [current year], user

...

guys…
this was a response on the cryo vid.

Social Justice will call the game sexist because it exists and anything that exists is sexist.

Mega Man fans are going to tear each other to shreds; there's already an anti-Inafune base that has developed for a little while. This will eventually cause a huge split that will end up being pro-Inafune vs pro-Capcom (or at least pro-Capcom-the-way-it-was-back-then).

I bet they don't have to deal with this bullshit in the Berenstain universe.

IT'S TRUE

Wrong fucking universe faggot

I may have not backed it, but it still pains me to know that I once supported the "fuck capcom, inafune is a god, megaman is bad because of them" mentality.

So bad.

found the berenstuinfag

Holy shit.

...

...

...

Good lord, that was obnoxious.

I really don't understand why the boss is ice when everything about its appearance suggests water. It looks like a fire hydrant painted blue and given life and for some reason it has ice powers.

Maybe I'm thinking about this too hard. I shouldn't get hot-headed over this ice gimmick, I really should just THIS GAME IS SHIT

Must we have another Mega Man game? Doesn't there come a time when a series must end? Is there such thing as "overstaying your welcome"?

You have a point.
Same can be said for Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, Fire Emblem, CoD, AssCreed and Sonic.

At least F-Zero ended on a high note.

Only if you run out of ways to make a game fun.

...

I'm actually totally fine with there being a thousand mega man games. Not only is each one very short, but each subseries (Classic, X, Zero, etc) will radically change itself.

So wait, does Beck have infinite dash?

Yes.

Yes. You can move horizontally forever, even essentially hover in the air for a while by dashing left and right rapidly.

I don't know, I kinda think the voice acting is one of the better parts of this otherwise mediocre experience.

...

Of course. But usually it must end for one or two generations and then a break to make way for an eventual reboot or resurrection, such is the cycle of life for media. But it's important that the media ends on a high note, did everything it could to its best ability, closes all loose ends and ultimately leaves a satisfying legacy when it goes on break.

at this rate, it doesn't look like it will be hard for Capcom to top Mighty Blunder 9 with the new cartoon or any of its vidya tie ins.

...

Q1? They said they were on track for q4 2016 didnt they?

Who knows.

And then there's these faggots trying way too hard to fit in.

...

Everything about this is wrong.

I'm still upset over MML3. That was one of two games I bought my 3DS for and they both got canceled. A MMBN collection for 3DS would be nice, though.

I don't understand what you're driving at here user.

...

...

I guess if you're really counting games like Mega Man Soccer, Battle N Chase, the 2 arcade fighters that no one played, Mega Man XOver, and that obscure FMV game that only came out in Japan.

...

There are actually people that defend this shit.

Now the game has to remind me of how bad hip hop beat production has become?

In your defense, you didn't know how much of a hack Inafune was back then, and Capcom is still a very shitty company that needs to die.

...

...

I want to believe that the whole pew pew was just a reference.

Remember when video game rap was actually good?

The shill girl is cute, CUTE.

DmC was made because of his decisions

I'm considering burning it.

DMC DMC?

Make a webm of it for Holla Forums to enjoy.

Apparently the gameplay is good.

The trailer was pretty bad.

I don't really care.

I don't really like mega man. I like rygar. When's rygar coming back?

yeah
He wanted to outsource capcom's games to the west to capture the western audience.
Dead Rising came out of it too

"you're dashing around like a fricking moonman, and I LOVE IT!"

...

...

that feel when constant earrape has made me start to love Flame Hyenards Voice.

...

Did Thebestgamers break any agreements when they streamed Might No 9?
If they didn't then re-host and link webm in the comments of that GameSpot Gameplay video.

I have him as a custom pilot in Windom XP. I get to hear his voice every time I use an attack.

...

There needs to be an Inafune variant of the Happy Merchant.

If I may interject for a moment, I doubt that is her final form.

If they kept him muted, it could work better.

Nah, gotta pour that Kickstarter money into as many prolific voice actors to keep this boat afloat.

You know what, I did backed it. Am I proud of it? Not by a long shot. I was just a tool for these fellows.
But I learned my lesson at least. This abomination will be in my account as a reminder of my own stupidity when I was younger. A scar. This is how the stupid learn, by being beat, cut, rekt.
No more KS, no more IGG and never, ever pre-order.

At least I know that some KS I backed didn't turned to complete shit, as Warmachine Tactics or Distance.

looks like someone finally uploaded part of it.

Skip to 1:39:00 if you want to get to the part where they accidentally discover the debug mode.

The problem is that it's an awesome thing that's awesome.
The "jokes" they're trying to use to market it are going to kill it.

I got your back, they only discover the debug after getting the ice power-up if you want to skip ahead.

The Zero clone has actually gotten worse.

You're comparing the size an entire medium to one series of games. I think you just proved that there are too many megaman games.

...

We've already got simple platformers and 2 RPG spinoffs from it, and the community even has a first person shooter on the Doom engine.
Personally I'd like to see a Kart Racer but it'll never happen

thanks a lot

I did back Bloodstained though…

than pray, pray with your heart
