I probably asked this before but: Is it fair for me to bash Mighty No.9's visuals despite the fact that it's coming out on 9 different platforms and every other Kickstarter game mentioned have started out on 2-3 platforms max before being ported to other consoles. 

[Ratcicle King]

Even if that's the reason, it's still their own damn fault for getting greedy with the platforms they'll release it to.

Probably more accurate to bash the developers for stopping just short of releasing their first game on self service checkouts and DatPiff.

I mean, it's such a stupid decision. Not even AAA releases new games on 9 platforms at once, why did they think that would work? Was last gen support a stretch goal?

[Pompadour]

While I never backed the game, and had my doubts since the beginning... it's still sad to see what this game has become. I want to laugh about it, and yet I stll feel bad for everyone involved. I really think they started this project with such passion and aspirations... but that spirit just died along the way. It's a tragedy for sure... and pretty comical, but depressing all the same.

I think trying to port the game on so many platforms did nothing to help either. They should've stuck with the 2-3 platforms, and THEN port to other platforms later. Like y'know... what most games do. I don't really know how the gaming business works, but I wouldn't be surprised if porting is pretty darn expensive, and if most of their kickstarter funding went to porting rather than on the actual game itself.

But HEY, at least we have that cartoon to look forward to, right?

.... right?

[Nix]

It's a goddamn shame because I feel the world deserves a good Mega Man game again, but this kickstarter has been such a horrendous dumpster fire I can't help but laugh at how the game is being received by critics.

Though it serves as a lesson about backing kickstarters I suppose.  There's a risk things won't always pan out, so be careful and stuff.

 

[Agie]

It's official; I want my five dollars back.

I don't care that it wasn't much, I want it back. Shame; I was looking forward to it, and I still think some ideas and characters should probably be in a better game...which only makes this hurt more.

Sounds like it's also official that Keiji Inafune made us his bitch. He, and Comcept as a whole, better be willing to learn from their mistakes.

How very unfortunate; one of the most successful Kickstarter campaigns, and what do us backers get? A slap in the face. I do wonder if Comcept employees have a story to tell.

What exactly went wrong? Well, I'm sure it'll be revealed by someone at Comcept. Someone who decided that they no longer have anything to lose by making it public.

Meanwhile in Inafune's office

And the megaman legacy sinks further down the shitter,...

This is honestly heartbreaking. We cant even trust inafune anymore

[Tailikku]

Seriously people.  The game's not out yet, and everyone's acting like Chicken Little because IGN gave the game a 65.  This reminds me of another review of a highly anticipated game that got a "less than stellar" score, when GameSpot game Twilight Princess an 8.8 for the superior Wii version and an 8.9 for the inferior GCN version.  And note, the terms inferior and superior.  Those were in the review.

My overall response about this IGN score:

 

[Agie]

Apparently, those who knew his background saw it coming.

We should have listened to them.

[Tailikku]

Allow me to quote someoen from Dazz's chat room on Skype.

"Yeah, IGN isn't the most reliable source for evaluating the quality of a game. At best, they usually echo the general consensus of a game."

[Your Vest Friend]

It's hardly IGN alone, though. The game has had eights in some places, but generally 5-6 seems to be the modal average.

We never could trust Inafune. I warned people about how shady him leaving Capcom was before finishing MML3 3 years ago. No one listened.

The Jimquisition- 4/10

Gamespot- 5/10

Destructoid- 6.5/10

Gameinformer- 6/10

Playstation Universe- 5.5/10

The current Meteoritic rating: 60

Open Critic rating: 58

Don't believe me here's the a thread on Neogaf that list all the reviews out right now http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1236654

It isn't just IGN that gave the game an average/medicore/ok rating that seems to be the general opinion that the game is just meh/ok and overall disappointing. i get that big review sites sometimes lie about games just for publicity but considering the way this game has been treated it's not hard to believe. 

 

 

[Johnny Boy]

Sheesh. I never backed this game, but seeing the reviews it's getting is just depressing. Especially considering that Capcom wasn't involved with this game whatsoever. Looks like it's still gonna be a while until we see a truly spectacular mega man game again.

[Mania Pipe]

Four million dollars, folks. 4 Million dollars and THIS is what they gave us in the end... Can I just say that First off: I'm really glad that I didn't back this game and Secondly: I feel so sorry for the people who did back it. It really did look like it was going to be the spiritual sequel to the Mega Man series and it was going to rock our pants off. Well, it sorta did, but not in a good way.

Isn't it very sad how much things have severely changed between now and then?

Besides, we don't need IGN to see that the game is mediocre at best, that we all can see from the last two years of development. IGN's review is just another nail to the coffin.

[MegasonicZX]

The IGN review itself is pretty fair too, the guy gives a lot of reasonable points as while even giving the game some praise in certain aspects instead of just flaming it for the sake of public opinion so you can't say they didn't give it a fair shake.

[Ryannumber1gamer]

I'd also like to remind everyone that the general reaction to the gameplay demo was meh in the first place.

I can vouch for it too! Be forewarned. If you purchase, you WILL be paying Inafune and company $1,000.00 plus shipping.

Heard about the survey getting delayed due to technical difficulties. Pffft

Oh and furthermore, several people still to this day, reported the survey NOT working and thus they got stuck with the PC version on default. Are you having fun yet kids?????
