extremely uncertain why this game gets lumped in with "metroidvanias" because it's a megaman game. a fun one, too. there's a certain sense of flow to the powerups and movements, and it feels pretty good to zip around stages.

in terms of design, i don't think it will rock your socks off, but the stages are fine, with opportunities to revisit them with power ups for a bit of exploration, as well as unlockable ex stages for an additional challenge

i don't think it beats my beloved Gravity Circuit in terms of being a better improved take on megaman (x), but i still think what's on offer is serviceable and a fine enough time. well, until you want to reach the true final boss. best not to do that.

yeah so remember when i said it was fun? the game at the end expects you to just go npc hunting for the true ending. my opinion? just play the game, beat the final boss, leave it at that. pretend the rest of the game doesn't exist.

still leaving as a positive review because the game is (mostly) fine but with just the strangest of additions it didnt need at the final hour.

a pretty decent, straight-forward with no frills attached platforming adventure.

one major point of criticism i would have is that the collectibles (which translate to power-ups) aren't all that exciting to collect and most upgrades just feel fairly useless. but it mostly works in the game's favor regardless because the default gameplay and controls are tight enough.

worth playing!

i expected nothing and got an insanely fun exploration game with a pretty robust battle system. solid game overall!

if i wanted to be really critical, i guess i could say the creature designs overall are not particularly interesting, but the art more than makes up for the simpler designs.

a pretty good strategy game, feels like Dawn of War but less clunky. fun game to pick up!

now can y'all get Halo Wars 2 on steam lol

a fine game mostly carried by the idea of a crossover between a platformer and a twin-stick shooter.

it does better than most games in the genre by mostly having visual variety in terrain by not having everything be blocks and squares - inclines and rounded-off terrain adds a lot so it's good to see a game try to be more than simply utilitarian

i think it's an enjoyable romp that does enough to break out of the mold of the genre it's inspired by

absolutely not optimized for steam deck though. not enough to dock points out of a review but still worth mentioning (at least as of the time of posting this)

Armilly is my favorite bimbo.

it's a "love it" or "hate it" game

there's only really one bad possible way to feel about this game, and it's entitlement. i also don't think it would hit as hard if it was presented in a different fashion (like a visual novel).

it made me personally think a lot and that's good, to me!

my favorite game of the original kiryu brawler series (0-6).

i would say to truly enjoy it you sort of need to have played 1-5, which is a tall ask. you can very well play it without having played previous entries, but then i would say most of the emotional impact is diminished. story is also tightly packed in this and doesn't really waste any time, it mostly gets to the point throughout the entire run ti,e

also my favorite in terms of side activities - i by far prefer this version of the "rts" minigame (clan creator) over kiwami 2's, the sidequests are much more engaging, and (unpopular opinion?) i prefer this (and kiwami's) version of the exp system. is it better? don't know, but i like it more!!

i do not think the game aged well. there's better contemporary beat em up you can play over this one. level progression isn't all that fun either.

if you can muster a group of friends then maybe it's still worth a look, but it's a strong maybe. i fully realize i am not being very fair since i am posting this 13 years after release, and i did enjoy it... a decade ago.

not something you play for the story, but more than makes up for it with a fun combat system. requires essentially to consider your best options, and the investment in return is to choose which inventory items you desire to invest in.

for the price it's at, if you are any level of RPG enthusiast, it deserves at least a strong strong strong consideration from you.
