This is my favorite one so far. It keeps all the cool stuff from 3 (the better, tighter level design, the SICK MOVEMENT TECH, generous item spawns), but it’s got a much smoother difficulty curve and basically no blatantly unfair stuff going on. I was also pleasantly surprised at how little the addition of the mega buster really changed how the bosses felt tuned, and I liked it more than I was expecting to. The pacing in this game is so good I don’t even mind that there are TWO castles lmao
The music never quite reached the highs of 2 and maybe I should stop hoping it ever will, but what is here is REALLY solid, probably the most consistent score in the series so far. The graphics are slick, I think the addition of an actual pause menu is probably for the best, and holy shit there’s a real cutscene in this game??? Just the one lol but it’s fun to see things develop even as the hardware is the same and the presentation is ostensibly identical
Mega Man 4 slaps i really like this one!
