[TAS] PSX Mega Man X5 "X only" by Noxxa in

[@flipperjr.3822]

The fact that you can just... skip to the final level just through sheer RNG bullshit is just, wow. 10/10 game design.

[@morrowlterraslove]

Well it’s not even RNG it’s either you get the good or bad ending but you can just skip to the final stages at will

Isn't most of the planet covered in the Maverick Virus? I think there's a few more than 8 Mavericks here, and the reploids the hunters were going after weren't specifically labeled Maverick yet but had parts for the Enigma and Shuttle.

Sigma: "You came earlier than expected." X: "Well, I kinda skipped the typical 8 minions, because having defeated 32 of those plus the other previous super bosses was lame enough. I don't need power ups. Prepare to die for the 5th time!!!!"

@@xu765432ggfk who really cares if it's irrelevant? in most of TAS videos you can see people talking about how these game were their childhood or how good it was, not really talking about the run itself, but why does it really matter, besides these people will most likely complain over the most stupid shit to fill their empty lives.

@@somefries3101 Well, I think it's about different culture or something, in nico website at that timing, they think you should discuss the things which is relevant to the video, from their point of view, at a megaman video, you should post a comment which is relevant to megaman. This seems to be worked on different kinds of videos, too.

[@BBHood217]

X5's presentation was rather lacking, especially when compared to X4 and its anime cutscenes and in-game voiced lines. Surely Zero's original last hurrah (before Capcom decided they wanted an X6 after all) deserved better.

[@lamiamekni2802]

I think after the poor reception of the infamous voice acting in X4, Capcom decided to not use any more anime cutscenes

[@theobserver4214]

@@lamiamekni2802It was because X5 was a low budget game made by a production studio normally involved in porting games. They simply couldn’t fund new anime cutscenes for X5 and X6, resulting in both games having those Visual Novel esque cutscenes. X6 at least brought back voice acting in cutscenes to the games.

Consider that you've only really seen the first and final levels

[@MTown587]

Yeah the first 4 X games are great, but then the quality starts to dip around X5. X5 is at least decent and X8 is good, but X6 was bad and X7 was just awful.

[@blackpants7385]

@@MTown587 Nah, X3 doesn't deserve to be lumped together with X1, X2, and X4

[@marcusmayo]

@@MTown587 I wouldn't say X6 was bad on a outright, just had some really bad levels. But yeah X7 was awful.

[@MTown587]

@@marcusmayo I’ll admit it’s not all bad, I feel like if X6 wasn’t rushed out and they took their time with it, it would’ve probably been a decent game. There are some things I genuinely like about X6 and the music is some of the best in the series, but the bad level design and the nightmare effects really sour my opinion of it.

RNG manipulation.

[@NeilAerknard]

when you start the game the rng seed for the enigma change during gameplay so the chance not be always 100% but if you reset the game and see the intro demo doing some trick you can always get 100% chance to destroy the colony i guess in this tas he manipulate that seed in some form

This channel is not so good anymore, it is re-updowning old videos only, I want to watch those elder runners do this speedruns interesting like old times, Thanks

[@Spikechive]

If this is how you say "re-updowning" then why is the encoder "EZGames69" and not "OmnipotentEntity"? If this really was a download and reupload, the quality should also be at 240p. Unfortunately, your claim falls flat when you also consider that this is also a PCSX-RR TAS meaning that these specific TASes are being redone to get proper audio in place rather than the broken samples that the TASspu plugin provides. You can't claim "well the 240p feed is just upscaled" either, cause where would the obvious artifacts be? We're sorry that you don't care about the preservation of older TASes to be modernized to a newer audience, actually no we don't, we've been reencoding older TASes for almost 6 years now, drip feeding it. So your complaint can go out the door. Edit: Also I actually forgot the more important thing. Noxxa used to not go by Noxxa back in 2011. They had a completely different alias.
