Pretty much just more of the same but less memorable of an experience overall. If you liked the first one, you'll like this one.
Basically the same thing as Mega Man X but the stage and boss design doesn't quite reach the same levels of near-perfection the first game had. Still very enjoyable despite being a bit more irritating to 100%
Weaker than its predecessor on all fronts, it's still stands taller than other no-name action platformers of the time. Two games into a series where bosses are based on animals and we're already scraping 'sponge' off the bottom of the barrel?
Parts of this game I like more than the original. A great follow-up.
Nope, no thanks, I'm just gonna leave this game unfinished.
Finding out that turning off the game at the final boss means replaying all of the X-hunter stages and losing the ability to use shoryuken felt like such a kick in the nuts that I just can't be bothered. So much for taking a well deserved break after that tiresome series of stages.
Didn't enjoy the sequel as much as I enjoyed the first X title, which is really sad. X2 just felt inferior in every aspect.

Writing a review fueled by salt may not have been my best idea.
My initial review gave this game a 3/5 and called it inferior in every way to its predecessor. I had a rage quit moment during the final boss which led to me having to start from the first X-hunter level, which only further fueled my anger. I finally proclaimed that I would never touch this game and went to bed.
After sleeping on it, I decided to give the game another go from the start the very next day. Well, what do you know? I had a blast this time around!
I must say that I found less utility in X2's weapons compared to X, but I vastly prefer the new armor abilities, as well as the game giving you the dash from the start. Not having the dash from the get-go was one of my minor nitpicks in Mega Man X, so I'm really glad that they fixed it this time around.
Mega Man X2 is a splendid sequel, and I sure am glad that I gave it another chance.

Mega Man X2 is a very weird game. I think X1 is much better, but it isn't dogshit.
unica coisa de nova q tem sao as armas de resto é o literal jogo anterior
clássico demais
Emulador, é claro.
Jogo bastante inferior ao Megaman X1, mas ainda diverte. Não zerei, cheguei no penúltimo boss e tudo que senti nas fases finais do jogo foi tédio.
Os 8 primeiros bosses tem fases legais, mas depois o jogo se perde. Gostei, mas tá longe de ser bom como seu antecessor.

Best Mega Man series fr
basically just mega man x but slightly worse
The first X game is one of my favorite games of all time so this was going to have a tough time following it up. I think that the music, graphics, gameplay, and story are all really good and almost close to the original. The air dash in particular is a great addition. Despite all those pros, this game has one major flaw that makes the original better: the bosses. The Maverick bosses in this game suck with some of the worst in the series. I don't think this game was as innovative as the original and because of its shitty bosses, I think it falls short and isn't as good.

Mega Man X dejó una impresión tan fuerte en mí que sentí la imperiosa necesidad de empezar la secuela nada más terminar. Necesitaba más de lo mismo y Mega Man X2 es más de lo mismo pero casi mejor.
Los niveles son más memorables (la secuencia de moto en Overdrive Ostrich, las cajas mortales de Magna Centipede, la lava ascendiente en Flame Stag...), los jefes tienden a ser más interesantes (en virtud de ser menos débiles a su debilidad y que el X Buster se siente más poderoso) y hay un cambio en las capacidades de las armas que desbloqueas (que enfatizan el combate en X y la exploración en X2) que creo que favorece al juego en su totalidad. Los jefes finales son al mismo tiempo más exigentes y menos injustos que en el original.
Por otro lado, el orden en que derrotes a los jefes no cambian los niveles como lo hacía en X, los jefes opcionales se sienten mal integrados y la estructura en la que ocurren los rematches contra los Mavericks en el nivel final me gustó menos que en el original.
Teniendo en cuenta todo esto, creo que prefiero Mega Man X2 a X. Puede que tenga que ver con que empiezas con el dash desbloqueado y que lo reasigne al botón L antes de empezar la partida, pero creo que X2 es una experiencia más depurada que utiliza mejor sus partes. Una vez más, no puedo sino recomendarlo a todo el mundo.

Mega Man X2 é um caso meio complicado pra mim... Ele tem uma ótima trilha sonora, uma gameplay superior ao X1, tem o Buster da second armor que é um dos meus favoritos na franquia, ele tem fases bem divertidas, e o mais importante, ele não tem o dash cagado do X1. Porem, em contrapartida a qualidade dos Bosses do X2 são como uma montanha russa, alguns estão entre os meus favoritos da saga, e outros eu simplesmente detesto. O X2 no geral é uma ótima continuação, eu gosto bastante dele, é um bom jogo! Mas diria que tem melhores na franquia.....
