[@megasean3000]

If you’re wondering why the last stage of Sigma’s second Fortress has the exact same opening sequence of Magna Centipede’s stage, let me explain. Magna Centipede had a pretty important role in the plans of the X-Hunters and Sigma. He wasn’t just a random Maverick who Sigma got a hold of and made into a loyal soldier, but the actual cornerstone of Sigma’s plans (At the time of X2). Centipede has the unique ability to infect enemies with a computer virus, and when paired with the Central Computer that he’s found in and the Maverick virus, can transmit that virus all over the world, making more Reploids go Maverick, making more soldiers for Sigma’s cause. Of course, X does indeed defeat Centipede and shuts down the computer transmitting the virus. That’s why Sigma has the same layout as Centipede’s opening stage, because should Centipede fall, Sigma can still transmit the virus without skipping a beat. Further food for thought is why there’s searchlights all over both stages. It looks as though it’s to keep X out, but a more startling thought is it was designed to keep Centipede in, should he wrestle free from Sigma’s control and try to escape. Quite a grim fate for the once-Maverick Hunter.

[@bennel3588]

It's weird that if you select Magna Centipede's stage, it takes you to the X-Hunter Fortress Stage 5, but only if you unlock it. Sigma takes over Magna Centipede's stage, and then makes it his own stage. I'm glad something like that does not happen anymore like X3-8, but I did not like Megaman X6-8. In my opinion, X7 is the worst, but I think most people say that X8 is the worst, but in my opinion, X8 is horrible, but not as horrible as X6-7, but I do like going into 2D to 3D in X7-8.

[@bennel3588]

@Meganime I usually find people saying about the last in the category is the worst. X8 probably would have been my favorite if Dr. Light capsule still appeared for other characters to give to X, it was not for the limited retries, and there were checkpoints for if I ran out of lives. In the X Collection, my favorite was X5, but that was probably in a messed up version, because the hours of collision only move by one when I select a stage, but in X Legacy Collection, X4 is my favorite, because in X5, the hours of collision go down by one when I select a stage, and it even goes down while I'm in a stage.

[@bennel3588]

@Meganime I think X7 is the worst selling Mega Man X game. I did read that people consider Megaman 8 as the worst Megaman game ever. Out of the original Megaman games, I consider Megaman 9 as the worst Megaman game ever.

In the first four Mega Man X games, this one always felt like the 'black sheep' of Sigma fights. X1, X3, and X4 would all kill me pretty quickly until I learned their attack patterns. Died a bunch on those, but can now get through with minimal damage due to sheer repetition. This one here I can pretty much brute force my way through on the first attempt everytime because he doesn't pack a huge punch and Phase 2 has enemies that drop health. But the patterns are actually tricky and erratic that I take a frustrating amount of damage in the process. Way more than any of the other three.
