Eu não tenho do que reclamar sobre esse jogo. A gameplay a satisfatória, as fases e bosses marcantes e músicas memoráveis.
Esse é um jogo que, mesmo zerando várias vezes, não enjoa.

this game would've been better if you had dash from the start, I would replay it more if I didn't have to go halfway through chill penguin's stage just to enjoy the damn thing

Megaman X? More like MEGAMAN GEX!

This game is a banger, especially considering the time it got released.

It was able to evolve the formula of the classic megaman titles while giving its own vibe to a new series, that to this da stands out, because of it great gameplay loop, invcredible pixelart and DIVINE soundtrack, that in my opinion has not been topped by future megaman titles (How can you hate Spark Mandrill theme? It deserves its own concert or something).

Just like other games in the franchise, it can feel too short, but every minute of it is worth it.

Made me a Megaman fan ever since I played it. Just give it a shot if for some reason you haven't already.

zerei numa tarde e GOSTO MUITO MAIS DESSE JOGO DOQ EU GOSTAVA
WTFFFFFFFFFFF ELE É MUITO BRABO COMO EU NAO ACHAVA ELE UM DOS MELHORES X

Um dos melhores jogos que joguei na minha infancia, disputa facilmente top 1 jogo do snes. GOAT dos jogos de plataforma!

Possui a dificuldade dos mega man antigos porém inova ao adaptar a curva de dificuldade, adicionando mecanicas de heart tank e armaduras, formando novas formas de jogar o mesmo jogo, agradando quem gosta de dificuldade intensa e quem quer mais se divertir com uma curva de aprendizado justa. Dito isto a direção de arte, trilha sonora, e jogabilidade são excelentes

I've been interested in this series for a very long time. I've listened to music from it, watched reviews of the series, and have heard great things about it from people/friends as well. And of course, I've definitely seen the memes from some titles, haha. However, I was always a bit hesitant on taking the plunge out of fear of the series not being my cup of tea, or it being too difficult. It wasn't until I tried out a Touhou fangame inspired by the X series that was the push I needed to finally try the series out through the Legacy Collection.

And I'm very happy I did so, because man is this game just so damn COOL. Okay, so when I first started playing, I was kind of a mess. Didn't know what I was doing at all, felt like I'd never make any progress, and was starting to feel disheartened. But I decided to keep going, look at guides/tips, videos in order to help me out, and then after that... it started to get really fun! The feeling of excitement I felt when I beat my first maverick boss was just so awesome, and it really made me feel like "Okay, maybe I can actually beat this lmao?". And so I would go on to fight Flame Mammoth, Storm Eagle, and Spark Mandrill, and then... that is when I started to get it. That is when I realized why these games were so well regarded, because of how fun and addicting the gameplay was. I loved getting more used to the mechanics---such as dashing and wall climbing. I loved being able to build my arsenal of power ups and then getting excited upon wondering "Ooooh, I wonder what this power up I got does". And I loved using said power ups against the proper bosses who were weak to them (like, my mind was blown with how fucked Spark Mandrill got from Chill Penguin's power up, I had no idea the power ups were THAT huge of game changers). And then I felt really proud of myself when I was able to beat some bosses with just the X Buster. It's like the more I played the game, the more I got my ass beat, and the more I learned... the more satisfying it was for me to actually beat them. And then when I would lose, I would be like, "Okay, I've got their ass next time", and then just try again.

...or I would also maybe try to break my controller in half, but that's on me, not the game's fault lmao.

I just really liked that sense of challenge, I feel that same way when I play Touhou too. So much so that when I put the difficulty on Rookie Hunter mode twice, I ended up turning it off each time, and even started over just so that I could do it on the game's regular difficulty. The thing about me is that with some things, I just can't let myself play on a lower difficulty. My pride would just not allow me to lower the difficulty and play the game AT ALL lmao. And it probably would've saved me less trouble and stress if I did... (but I'm incredibly stubborn with stuff like this, it might be a problem lmao). And this game was REALLY TOUGH for me, probably one of the toughest games I've played, and very frustrating too. But at the same time, that difficulty thrill is fun to me (so long as it's not like, too insurmountable lol). And so when I'm up against a difficult boss, it's fun when I finally beat it, like I really accomplished something. LIKE MAN... THIS GAME IS SO COOL DUDE, I SEE IT NOW LMAO.

Alongside that, I really loved the incredible level-design throughout the many stages, and especially the amazing attention to detail of how beating certain bosses affects the environment of another---usually making it much easier for you. Like, I'm not a game developer expert at all, but having such ambitious level design in 1993 is pretty damn sick honestly. The way this game is structured and the way its designed... it's hard to describe, but it's really well done in its execution of helping the player learn the ropes and challenge themselves just through simply playing the game. Now granted, I uhhh... looked up guides and stuff to help me out, but even taking that out of the equation, I can just tell that the game is really well-designed in that aspect. And then the music... like... yessss... I've listened to the music in the past when I was a kid, but it was really nice hearing these themes old and new to me. Chill Penguin, Flame Mammoth, and Zero's theme are definitely my favorites, and I really loved the Sigma Stage Select music too. Honestly, I really liked a lot of the Sigma themes in general.

I guess my only few gripes would be that I really wish there wasn't a life system, just a personal thing. I like being able to get back into the action, so losing all my lives and having to restock could be a bit of a chore. That and some of the upgrades were HELL to get, which I'm looking at you buster upgrade. Whoever designed getting that upgrade must have had a seriously bad day back in the office, because my fingers were aching after having to do that shit who knows how many times lmao. I mean, it was DEFINITELY worth it for the upgrade, but I would've much preferred a less taxing way to get it lmao. Other than that, not really much else that really bothered me that I can think of at the time of my head.

Anyway, I've always held a lot of respect for Mega Man. I didn't grow up with him like many others, but I had always heard such great things about the games, spin-off material, music, etc. It made me really want to one day try some of the series that really interested me, like the X series or the Legends series. And I'm really happy I ended up trying this game out and enjoyed it, it's a game I've wanted to at least try once in my lifetime. I'm really looking forward to seeing how the games expand or innovate from this one. I hope to especially see more added onto the story as well---since it's an early 1990s title, I didn't expect that much in-depth storytelling, but I really do like the overall premise and lore the X series established in this one,. And I'd really like to see more of X and Zero's characters too! I was already interested in them having seen them in crossover games and the like, so getting to play and learn more about them will be really cool. So yeah, I'm really happy I enjoyed this first entry, and I'm excited to play more of this series.

(Man, I really need to get better at writing shorter reviews... 😖)

The first entry on the Mega Man X series should not have peaked this hard. It was a tough bar to overcome, and sadly they never could. Just imagine a legless summer ant trying to jump through Saturn's rings.

This work of art casts a big ass shadow to the other games on the console.

I could give a 5/5 to the soundtrack alone but they included a kickass game alongside it.

This game is my childhood. I am 100% biased and love it regardless of how it actually is.

The feeling of getting motivated by Zero even in the intro stage, I remember that shit even though I was a kid, that line hit hard. Only for Zero to FKING die at the end, it fueled my rage, then the spiderboss kicked my ass.

GOAT/5
