My Mega Man X Reboot Revision Coming Soon

Alright, hey guys and gals. It's Rye "SneakyLizard" Callan (a.k.a The Deadly Rose). As you can tell by the title of the journal, I will be doing my own revision of how I would reboot the Mega Man X series.

Keep in mind that I will only be doing the first five Mega Man X games, while completely ignoring the events of X6, X7, X8, and Command Mission. To be perfectly honest with all of you, after Mega Man X5, the story just went to shit for me, I totally lost interest, and I didn't care what was happening during X6 and X7, ya know. For example, in X6, as far as the storyline went, I thought that Isoc (Gate's assistant) was going to be a sub-boss, followed by Gate, but the storyline writers gave us a big "Man, Fuck y'all" by adding Sigma in the mix. The way I would've written the story for X6 was for Sigma to be biding his time to get back at X and Zero in X7, thus making Gate the main antagonist.

Nothing against X8 and Command Mission (in fact, those games are very good), but I just feel that it should have ended after X5, as Keiji Inafune originally intended.

Having said all of that, I'll be making my vision both in terms of story and gameplay. I'll be starting with the first game. Yeah, I know that they already did a remake of the original Mega Man X (Mega Man Maverick Hunter X), but the problem was that it didn't sell well, leading to future sequels being scrapped. In regards to how I'll do the original, the storyline will be the same as Maverick Hunter X. As for the gameplay, it'll remain the same.

In regards to fighting the eight Maverick bosses a second time in the fortress levels, it will be done like the original Mega Man and Mega Man X, in that you have to fight them in a following preset order rather than just one big room with teleport hatches (a term that I learned of from The Mega Man Homepage). For example, in the original Mega Man, the order in which you fight the Robot Masters in Dr. Wily's Castle are; Cut Man, Elec Man, Bomb Man, Fire Man, Ice Man, and Guts Man.

So yeah, even X2, X3, X4, and X5 will have this feature. Also, regarding the original Mega Man X, the preset order in which you fight the Mavericks again will be different than in the original version and its remake.

Also, I will be including voice actors for the characters in each game. Of course, the voices from Maverick Hunter X will remain the same, but for the characters in the following games (save for X, Zero, Vile, and Sigma), they will have mostly different voice actors.

So there you have it. I hope you all feel excited about my own revision of the Mega Man X series. As always, feel free to flood me with comments down below. I would really appreciate it. This is SneakyLizard slithering into the shadows.
