@Felthry Megaman 6. I'm a big fan of the series, but 6 is the worst (IMO) of the classic games. It just feels like a slog and the weapons are either bland, clumsy, or both. But it does a lot right; the graphics and music are top-tier and the Jet and Power adapters are fun to play with. And of course it has the one 'taur-shaped boss so far. It's just overall... fine.
@dodec We've noticed that most people seem to think 2 and 4 are the only good megaman games and all the rest are mediocre.

@dodec We've tried to get into megaman games a few times, but they're just too difficult i'm afraid :<
re: cw: Megaman nerdery (long)
They are, in general. 5 happens to be one of the easier ones, though, because it likes to throw E-tanks at you.
re: cw: Megaman nerdery (long)
@dodec perhaps we'll give it a try!
original megaman games are ridiculously expensive, but they've been ported a lot

@Felthry
The Megaman Legacy Collection has 1-6 in it and is $15 on Steam, if you're looking for a cheap legal way to get them (and Legacy Collection 2 has 7-10).
re: cw: Megaman nerdery (long)
@dodec yeah, we got the megaman X legacy collection on switch a while back
don't think we ever managed to beat a single boss of it, hah

@Felthry
Out of the first 6, 5 is my favorite, but it's also my least favorite to watch speedruns of. It's not supposed to be all about Super Arrow abuse, that's just the fastest way to skip through it. Go play it for yourself and try it out.
