It's Mega Man. It's my childhood, etc. But I'm pretty much past nostalgia. As awesome as this would have been when I was a kid, the gameplay is retro. But if you liked traditional Mega Man, that's basically what this is, with better production values with full cartoon quality voice acting, and a surprisingly different story that pitches Dr. Wily and Dr. Light as two men with opposite political beliefs who fight over THAT as Wily's goal isn't to take over the world, but to prove Light wrong. Huh.

The new gameplay ideas - temporarily powered up weapons, and slowing down time - are fine. And quality of life improvements are also good. But it's basically just Mega Man.
