lbd_nytetraynOk, found out how to reopen Noah's Park(who the hell came up with that name?)...
I think I figured out Signas. Seems the VA took a cue from the Peter Cullen School of Leadership Voice Acting. He seems to have some sort of Clint Eastwood/John Wayne thing going for him.
"Well lemme tell ya', Pilgrim, that was a real fine job ya' did there, trouncin' those Mavericks. Y'made it look real easy..."
Ok, not THAT extreme, but it's sorta there. Combined with his dialogue... well, I like it. It's more in a way that I liked Zero's X7 voice, in that it makes me laugh, but without seeming rediculously out of character. Just mildly.
The vehicles, I could do without, but the rest make up for it. They're not really an asset to the game, but so far, they aren't a serious detraction. Gigabolt's runs a bit sluggishly for my liking.
Then again, could have been Squid Adler part 2.
Pallette has earned my respect. She did what she said she'd do, and has become my #2 choice when going through a stage to gain everything.
CPS3 is doing stuff I like, stuff Inafune/CPS2 didn't do, and stuff that is innovative, but not alien. One example is using a part of the stage to beat a Mechaniloid. Not to give it away or anything, but that surprised the hell out of me, and made me realize, "Shit, that's different!"
And I liked it.
Something else different from Inafune's time on the series is something so small, something I love here, and something I don't think is too spoilerish for me to say...
METS IN MECHS! METS IN MECHS! METS IN MECHS! XD XD XD
It's true! The Mettaurs have these little mechs they ride around in during this one stage... it's so awesome in such a simple pleasure sort of way... I love it!
Overall, the only thing that really sort of puzzles me is the design change, specifically for Zero. Even his dash is different. Which wouldn't bother me, except it changes back to the old in Command Mission. Just so... odd. Especially given both were by the same team; this isn't like the giving Zero shoulder armor incident in the arcade games(granted, I don't know if it was a different team there, but I thought it was).
Oh well, it's not a huge issue.
Btw, I don't think X charges up slower this time... fact of the matter is, he now starts with FOUR levels of charge: standard, 2nd level, 3rd level, and the one-time capsule-only 4th level, all to start. With that in mind, it's about the same.
Neutral Armor is neat. And Dr. Light's voice is terrific. It's not the old one, but it sort of evokes the same kind of feeling to me, but in a less dense, "oh, that's nice" sort of way. Ever notice how he'd say "yes" after something Mega Man or Roll said in the toon? It always sounded like he was almost dismissing them to me, like "yes, I reached that conclusion a long time ago, I was wondering when you two computerbrains would catch up." Only thing that ever really bugged me about that one.
The one thing that DOES make me cry about this game is that we didn't get it for rent at work for some reason. I SO wanted to put it in the demo machine and show off... oh well. I guess I can do that enough with Alien Homminid... but it's just not the same...
