  2. Awesome. Why couldn't this be done in Mega Man 11, exactly? Ah, well. It's water under the bridge now. I couldn't be happier to have him back.

  3. He looks sick! Very nice that they added the shield bash from his MM7 fight as a move too, or the Powered Up insta charged shots thing.
    Though seeing him using overdrive seems dangerous, wasn't his core running out of power or something, and wasn't he left pretty weak after using that super charge shot against King in MM&B? Wonder if they will do something with it on this game's story.

  4. I'm a little worried about the charge shot spam. Access to melee attacks is cool, but the charge shot spam on top of that makes me wonder if Protoman is being treated as an "easy mode" character. On the other hand though, they don't show his health bar or him getting hit so it's still possible he might take x2 damage compared to Rock, which would make him a glass cannon character instead of easy mode.

    1. I have faith they'll make him balanced. In MM10 his buster didn't do as much damage, he took more damage from attacks like you said, and was knocked back even further than Rock was. Can't see them completely discarding that and making him so OP.

    2. Spamming of the shot was a chip ability Mega Man have the exact same one in the previous trailer. I do think it's really interesting to see his shots not travel as far though

      In both MM9 and 10, Proto Man's Buster did just as much damage as Mega Man's, if not more, since the former had the charge shot while the latter did not. He did, however, fire his Buster at a slightly slower pace, since Mega Man fired three shots at a time, while Proto Man fired two.

  5. look at my boi go. Love the mechanic of the shield upgrade as a boss weapon mechanic (apparently) really sick. He's finally getting a proper glow up in a game and proper full fledged mechanics.

  6. Holy moly! Proto Man is so sick especially the way he throws his Shield like Captain America.
