![]() Wily began working on something known as Double Gear, which would give robots boosted abilities by overclocking them beyond their ordinary limits. Years ago, when the two were in college together, Dr. Wily are once again at the very centre of things. The series’ well-established hard-as-nails difficulty, pixel-perfect run and gun platforming, and structure are still very much intact, but are executed in a way that they don’t feel out of place, or out of time. ![]() While Mega Man 9 and 10 were decidedly retro throwbacks, attempting to (and succeeding in) evoking a style of gameplay, difficulty, and visuals that has become a rarity in today’s day and age, Mega Man 11 strives to push the series forward and take it into new directions, but does so without forgetting about the core components that make Mega Man- Mega Man. ![]() Thankfully, the action platformer continues the trend of excellent Capcom games in recent years, and does what the Japanese developer and publisher has been doing so much of lately- listening to the fans. "While Mega Man 9 and 10 were decidedly retro throwbacks, attempting to (and succeeding in) evoking a style of gameplay, difficulty, and visuals that has become a rarity in today’s day and age, Mega Man 11 strives to push the series forward and take it into new directions, but does so without forgetting about the core components that make Mega Man- Mega Man." 2010’s Mega Man 10 was the last we saw of the series, so given the fact that a franchise as beloved and legendary as this is returning after such a long hiatus, the burden of expectations is naturally pretty heavy.
