the original series is fairly generic "evil guy tries to take over the world, good guy stops him" but every other series (X, Zero, ZX, Legends, Battle Network, and Star Force if i'm not missing any) go *really* wild if you look into it
@Felthry Random thought: Why hasn't there been a mega man kart racer?
@BatElite Has capcom ever done a kart racer?
@BatElite Their specialty for spinoffs seems to be fighting games, and there have been a few of those with a megaman theme.
@Felthry only game I played was ZX and the lore was really like a thing.
‘There are robots who look like humans and now humans can fall from long distances and not die’
Is quite a bit of lore :0
@Brainship The chronological order in which the games take place goes
Original -> X -> Zero -> ZX -> -> -> Legends
(alternate universe)
Battle Network -> Star Force
So you got some pretty late in the timeline stuff. By the time of ZX, there isn't really a distinction between human and robot anymore
(BN and SF are a side series but equally wild, if more light-hearted)
