A Mega Man game that doesn't look like a Mega Man game?! That's right, it's a 3D game that deviated away from the classic jump and shoot man platformer. This run-and-gun RPG playstyle works for this often overlooked entry in the franchise. Does this game hold up even through it deviated from the norms of a Mega Man game? Let's find out in my Mega Man Legends review.

Yeah! And it would’ve been so cool to play the 3rd game on 3DS! I was addicted to my 3DS back in the day. Even though I wasn’t born in the 80s or 90s, I was still intrigued by the existence of this series on the PS1

[@israelruiz8706]

Something about that game I always found so cozy. I was more of a fan of legends 2 and I remember I would just walk around the snow village and actually would feel like I was in that village. And honestly I lived in south Texas and the first time I was up north during the winter. I saw snow and immediately walked around with that same song.

[@mackderpants]

You should totally do Mega Man Legends 2. It rounds a lot of the harsh edges of the original, and it’s still a great and of course improved game experience.

[@SpyHunter89]

I second the motion. While Legends 1 never quite captured my fancy, Legends 2 had a far grander scale and enough quality-of-life improvements to make it one of my all-time favorite PS1 games.

[@GladDestronger]

its only badpoint? the ending... to this very day is still open. in legends i think a version of protoman should be introduced. a skilled purifier unit equaled by trigger though megaman thinks he's the superior unit. he'd be a backup plan if the old system started to reactivate and help his brother. plus tron would be swooning over him.

[@milleezy]

[@shawnheatherly]

So happy to see Jirard is left with a better impression this time around. The Legends games deserve to get a collection pack as other Mega Man titles have seen in recent years, and a foolish part of me still hopes to see that third game manifest some day.

[@nicodalusong149]

The collections serve to measure interest (from what I heard, that's the reason we got Mega Man 11). As such, once a collection does drop for Legends, interested parties should all buy it to show we want a new game. Right now though, I'm waiting for the Battle Network/Star Force collection.

[@victoriousf.i.g.3311]

If Shenmue can do it with 26 fans, surely Legends can earn a threequel.

[@sontho6995]

I don't think legends series can get a collection, for one there's only 3 games & one's a spinoff. Another thing, I believe are a bit outdated with their controls (especially legends 1). I think they have to get remakes.

[@AlienSigma]

Please play MML2, it's even better than 1 for a single reason: Analog Support.

In my personal opinion Legends 2 is better in almost every way, and it aged much better that the first one. I would definitely recommend you try it if you liked Legends 1.

[@Tailstraw_xD]

I agree! I honestly think if Capcom had renamed Volnutt and Roll, and presented MML as a new IP, it would be on its 12th sequel now.

[@Melodashg]

Mega Man Legends is such an incredible and important game. It's so under appreciated in gaming history. Most people don't ever mention that this game came out a full 11 months before Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time would hit N64 giving us one of the best 2d to 3d transitions a company mascot had ever made in that era. Not to mention; it's contribution to the progression of the celshaded graphics we'd see in later games like Jet Set Radio, and XIII. These games are TREASURES. If you like Action-RPGs, Dungeons, Anime, and Megaman you will love these. Play and or own all of them. AT ANY COST. Buy it on PS3 for $5.99 buy, buy it on ebay, emulate it on your cell phone. Do whatever you need to do to play these games. They're totally worth it.

The timing of this video is crazy. I recently started replaying MML for the fist time since i was a child and i cannot put it down. I started almost two weeks ago when this video was released. I remember loving the game, so was a lil nervous it would purely be nostalgic enjoyment, but the story and flow of the game makes me curious to explore the world. Like, the first time goin through old town and getting attacked by, and kicking dogs. Dude, pretty dark lmao. Especially in contrast to the rest of the game LOL that area is a serious vibe. Im excited to keep playing. Did not expect to see a totally current Mega Man Legends video lol, thank you!

When I was a small child, my dad would do the dog/ball minigame for 8 straight hours to make me zenny while I was going to school. It's one of those small things I remember him doing for me, a silly but special memory. I would come home from school and look forward to upgrading something to make the game more fun, I was probably 7 or 8 years old at the time. This was my favorite game and megaman was always something we did together going all the way back to the original NES games. This video put a huge smile on my face. Thank you.

[@restinginn9906]

The deep dungeon dives, the creepy atmosphere, the music, characters, RPG elements (upgrade badass weapons), incredible story (complex and interesting!), and exploration. There is so much to be said about this game and how much it does right. I really hope Megaman Legends 3 is released soon. If not, maybe another Mega Man RPG- like 3D game.

[@picklemeister17]

This was the first game my parents got for me when they bought me a Playstation. I have such fond nostalgia. We didn't know at the time that the Playstation needed a separate memory card, so I had to just pause the game and turn the TV off at night until we got a memory card. This was nothing like any other megaman game I've ever played and it is one of my favorite games of all time!

[@josephstaszczyk409]

[@nathanhargenrader645]

The thing that consistently blows my mind about this game is that it was a whole year before ocarina, yet does many of the things that we all credit ocarina for. I have always felt if the controls had been a little better the game would be remembered where it belongs as one of the greatest games of all time.

[@Sammsy1126]

Yes! 💯. Auto locking in this game was legendary. The way the camera caught the action was improved tremendously.

[@kaledaniel3335]

So happy you played this one, one of my favorites from this era. Would love to see you play the second in the series! (Who knows maybe it'll help get the third one back in the works!!)

[@geminialchemist2441]

This game is one of my all time favorites. The voice acting, for the time and even for the present, is amazing. That, combined with the plot and the gameplay makes you feel like you’ve jumped into a Saturday morning cartoon. I’ve been hoping for a rereleased bundle, like the other Megaman games have been getting, and if that does happen, the only thing I’d change about Legends is the controls. Modify them to work more like the second game, since the original didn’t have analog support and it makes it so much clunkier to play by today’s standards. If you have a PS3, PSP, or a Vita, this is a must play game, along with the other two in the series. They’re much cheaper digitally than buying a physical disc, at least. Or you can emulate. I won’t judge. It’s how I played them for the longest time after I lost my original copy, and before I got a PS3. I think the first game also had a PC release, but who knows how well that works on modern computers?

[@syrelian]

From what I've heard, the PC release didn't exactly run flawlessly on its target platforms, modern computers is... a bit of a crapshoot, while I agree analog movement is a must for a rerelease... I'll be honest and say I kinda prefer how Legends 1 feels in terms of just... movement, the controls feel a bit tighter, and the map design is definitely tighter... but that also partially ties into just not being as enthralled with Legends 2's globe trotter thing, its not as tight and cozy a world or story, Kattleox Island is super interconnected and that feels Really Good

[@bcrossfire1219]

I was one of the few players who noticed how radically different Legends was at the time yet also enjoyed it for its own merits anyway. For starters, the characters are full of expression and voiced reasonably well. None of that "Bass, why are we fighting?" or "WHAT AM I FIGHTING FOR!?" nonsense. Jagged polygons aside, the game looks remarkably like an anime, and manages to translate the character designs into low-poly models remarkably well thanks to the textured expressions. A lot of games of the time had low poly counts that stick out like a sore thumb nowadays, but for Legends, it was more like looking at high-quality character models through a jagged pixel filter. And dear lord, did Legends have a sense of wonder and discovery. Every time I found a new item in some corner of a ruin, I couldn't wait to bring it back to Roll and see what she'd turn it into. A new weapon? A buster part? Something completely mind-blowing? That little convention alone excited me in a way no other game at the time possibly could. Legends wasn't just Mega Man mixed with Metroid or Zelda; it was its own beast, offering its own exciting discoveries. Sure, Legends didn't have the classic "eight bosses on a stage select screen" or "four Light Capsules that give you cool armor upgrades", heck it didn't even have anyone as cool as Proto Man or Zero, _but it didn't need to._ It had its own atmosphere, its own personality, its own hooks, its own charm. Legends was as revolutionary as the original Mega Man - there was nothing else like it. And there hasn't been much like it since. Mega Man Legends deserves more than just a Legacy Collection - it deserves a _remake,_ ideally alongside its sequel and spinoff. Take the original Legends setting, add an HD coat of paint, maybe tweak the gameplay a little, and you have a classic waiting to be reborn. That all said, yes, definitely play Legends 2. As someone who completed that game, I highly recommend it.

The cartoony artstyle has definitely aged well. It makes me wonder if anime artstyles have somewhat evolved from massive hardware limitations for videogames, since to a point, those usually looked better than western-drawn stick figures/attempts at realism on those older systems.

[@sargimusprime8893]

This game and series means a lot to me and I'm so happy to hear Jirad praise. I would definitely be down for seeing him complete Mega Man Legends 2.

[@Comkill117]

It’s always interesting to see stuff like this where it’s a game you come back to years later with a different opinion of it.

[@zettovii1367]

Megaman Legends is seriously one of the Capcom series that deserves to get the Monster Hunter treatment

[@Divisionlo]

Mark my words: One day, this game will make it into the Easy Allies Hall of Greats.

[@MrSirGrape]

Not without Bosman.

So happy to see some love for the Legends series. Do a video on 2 next!

[@levelmaster2]

Definitely do Legends 2. I love this series and my favorite of the Megamans.

[@GetMeOffTheMoon]

Glad to see you giving Legends 1 a revisit and singing its praises! It’s still a very good game despite its age (which kind of fits with the theme of the game when you think about it). Seeing this amount of enthusiasm is always refreshing, and hopefully your review of the game will be enough to nudge people into giving Legends 1 the shot it deserves. You should absolutely give Legends 2 a playthrough, even if you don’t complete it (but I would watch it if you did)! If you liked Legends 1 at all, you’re doing yourself a disservice if you don’t at least check out the wild ride that is its sequel. Completing the game is a bit of a slog due to the inevitable grinding required to max everything out on its multiple difficulties, but the game is larger in scope than Legends 1 so there’s a bit more to dig into (or at least it feels that way). The completion process is definitely more involved than in Legends 1 even without the grinding, and there are some novel challenges to tackle over the course of the game that are difficult in non traditional ways. A run of it would 100% be worth watching!

[@davidthorp01]

Yoooooooooo! It’s wonderful to see you. Love the channel still!

[@Martialartfruituser]

Yes, we need Legends 2 and see the rest of the world beyond the island.

[@LordPichuPal]

I remember playing this as a kid many times, and never understanding it very well and getting stuck early on. But then my mom bought me The Misadventures of Tron Bonne and I really loved that game, and realizing how rare that game has become makes me feel more proud I still have it. It's a really fun game and I wish more people could've gotten to experience it as well. As for Legends 2, we also had a copy of it (and I might still have it somewhere, unless my brother took it with him) but I vaguely remember anything about it when I tried it. Having seen this review and ProJared's full LP though, it did reveal about how cool this game really was, and makes me feel bad I never got into it enough to keep trying when I was younger.

[@lew-e]

I loved playing this game but I have way more memories watching my brother play it while I sat on the floor. Such a cool game

[@chunkykong8683]

We deserve both remastered on both game jsut to create the Megaman Man Legends 3 that could've been! T_T

[@jinopostigo7987]

Yup, would love to see you complete Legends 2...

[@UserShadow7989]

Awesome! My favorite game gets an updated review; hope to see you give 2 and MoTB a run someday! Edit: 7:12 was that a reference to my favorite nameless npc in the game? There’s a gal in the city hall area who locked herself out on her balcony and over the course of the game goes from having a fear of heights to developing a passion for climbing after she got herself down, and the last you see of her she’s on her house’s roof and assures you she’s not stuck this time. I love that the generic npcs had little personal plot lines like that. Edit 2: to save your sanity a bit when you grind in legends 2: one early optional dungeon has one of three sets of enemies- if there’s a fake chest near the start, then you can find a giant gold enemy deeper in that drops a ton of zenny and respawns when you enter/exit the room. Do this before trying to upgrade your license to make it as fast to kill as possible.

[@AlDesentis]

Nice seeing some appreciation to a series that has so much charm and personality. Cheers to Volnutt, Tron, the #41 Servbots, Tiesel and the Casketts. Coincidentally I just hired a bright blue and yellow cat in MH Rise and named him Servbot #43 a few hours ago. Congratulations on this excellent channel!

[@Kuchiri]

Jirad, you like Zelda. You like MegaMan. Legends 2 is Legend of Melda Man No Cap.

[@KaijinZero]

yes, play Legends 2, see why we really missed out getting Legends 3.

[@KairuHakubi]

especially since it was, as I understand it, finished.. and they just wouldn't release it.

[@hypershadw]

@@KairuHakubi No the full game wasn't finished it was the demo that was fully finished that they wouldn't release. Originally they wanted to just work on the game, then corporate said no do a demo, then they said make them pay for the demo, and then they didn't even release it when it was finished.

[@KairuHakubi]

@@hypershadw wow that's somehow both less and more fucked than i thought. assuming that's true.

[@ZerogGames]

Legends was my first Mega Man game and one of my favorite PS1 games of all time, so glad to see you do an episode on it, and I would love to see you do MML2 in the future as well.

[@3n3my33]

Legends 2 please!!! Maybe with enough attention, we can finally get some sort of closure to Legends 2's cliffhanger

[@popokitty09]

Um yes, you should play 2. It's one of my favorite games even though I've only beaten it once but it has stuck with me since the 1st time I played it.

[@DrPoxo]

I will forever shout bring back this game!

[@Invisoguy]

Thanks so much for revisiting MML! I adore this series, and am always excited at the idea of new folks discovering it for the first time all these years later. Thanks for the hard work Jirard Oh also, there is no question. You should play Mega Man Legends 2

[@dmcctrukk5484]

I remember the "Roll's room" incident where he walks in then gives the "Mission Complete" pose as well as looking at dirty magazines on the bookstore lol

[@Narutoman14]

You bet I want to see Legends 2! I'm still not over the canceled third game!

[@ThatBaldGamer]

I love Mega Man Legends, but I'm distracted by how the Keeps sponsor is likely my sworn enemy.

[@blackpants]

I want to see megaman legends 2 in the regular completionist show

[@LKalkie]

I vaguely remember your old video on this game and feeling slightly disappointed at that old rating you gave it as this was one of the earliest PS1 games that was super near and dear to my heart. Really happy you've come around and updated your rating to Finish It, and I really do hope someday you'll get a chance to try MML2 (Though I can't remember how good the gameplay was but I was just happy for the story continuation and more Bonn Family hijinks).

[@rystalquinn]

Legends 2 is amazing -- DO IT -- get me off this moon!

[@Pensive_Scarlet]

I remember loving this so much when it came out that I imported the soundtrack and discovered how amazing the Japanese intro and ending songs were. Check them out!

[@desmondhawkins5362]

Dude I was so excited to see the notification of you doing an episode on Megaman Legends. I absolutely loved this series as a kid growing up and still do to this day! This game deserves to be talked about more and very much so deserves a remake for current gen consoles. I could only imagine how amazing it would look. Definitely follow up with Megaman Legends 2!

[@Kamekus]

A great video for one of my favorite games of all time! And yes, I would absolutely love for you to play 2!
